Why I should win the LDL Gigglegibber lottery
I, Kaladryn, feel that I would be an acceptable candidate for winning the Gigglegibber lottery for a variety of reasons. Not only have I been sneaking around Lucan D'Lere since launch, but I have achieved feats that very few can claim on their respective resumes.
1. I am a soloer - I am poor. I need the money.
2. I have, without outside assistance, made enough money to fund my transmuting skill to 300/400. I have spent countless platinum pieces(okay, not quite countless, but a mind-boggling amount) to gain the necessary items for transmuting and crafting adornments.
3. My guild consists of me, myself, and I (plus, my alts "Je," "Selbst," and "Yo"). I joined one of those "pick-up" guilds one day and found myself appointed leader only a few days later. Everyone left, and I essentially inherited a pointless guild, but I liked the name, so I kept it. I have almost single-handedly leveled said guild to 23. A lot of work and time wasted went into completing some of those silly heritage quests.
4. I spent all my money on shinies. It's true, I'm a shiny whore. And since the release of EoF and RoK, I'm a blue shiny whore. Completing those expert collections was a bitch; I collected all but 3 of each of them, and purchased the rest. Considering the amount of time this task took, I think I deserve a little more compensation than some of the crappy-ass rewards that these RoK blue shiny collections are giving me (Save for the chokidai collars and Reet armor collections).
5. I am not part of a raid guild. I like raiding, and I think I play my class well, but my schedule doesn't allow me to do this regularly. Thus, I am not made of money, nor am exposed to the amazing lewt!!1!! that raiders see.
6. I am a Shadow Knight. If there's any class that's an outcast, it's the Shadow Knight. Never, never, never have I seen a call for a pick-up group entail, "LF 1 more for <insert zone here> group - need an SK." I did once, actually, but I think I either dreamed it or saw it on April Fool's Day.
7. I am a role-player. I can't really think of any way that this supports my cause, other than 1) I'm a nerd and you should feel sorry for me, and 2) I'm ignored and shunned even on a Roleplay server.
8. What I would do with the money: SoE probably has locked this server's lottery because of the insane amount it has reached. It's reasonable that they could worry what one person would do with that much platinum....especially some really lucky, random schmo. I assure everyone that I will not sell it for real life money, as I despise botters and farmers and wish the Septicemic plague upon them. With this money, I would buy lots of cool stuff to fill my in-game house, hire a few hands to level my guild to 30 so that I could buy an actual guild house, then have a kickass party in game with free alcohol. I'll even go grab some of that vintage Thexian wine from in Nektropos Castle.
9. I am a washed-up, out of work Weaponsmith. This trade does me little good at this point. My play time is limited, so I couldn't keep up with leveling my tradeskill, my transmuting, and my character level. So, at 63, it leaves me with little profit from my trade.
Now, Lucan D'Lere Norrathians, you have seen my reasoning. In essence, I have spent a lot of money (much more than the average soloer, I'd imagine) on building up my many skills. It would be nice to get some of that money back in a refund (or in the case of winning the Norrathian lottery, an "error in my favor."). Consider it, friends, and lend me your support.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a whiny, begging, low-life. This is a joke, so don't bash me for crying about having no money. Actually, go ahead, if you want. I'm really not offended by anything minor like what some random person online thinks of me.
DISCLAIMER 2: Please do not send me money in game. In all actuality, I am quite well off for a soloer.
