Greetings!

The new update has inspired me to start a new mini project for the fun of it!

This experiment will be to create a whole new knight at the time of the update, to experience the whole game as a Free To Play knight from start to end. On this thread I will post full logs so people can track the progress. Every item craft, every rank earned, every trade, anything that happens with the alt will be recorded so people can see how the adventure goes here.

The alt's name will be posted here as well so people can play with and interact with me during the play sessions.

-The rules-

  • The Alt may NOT make ANY form of purchase to Three Rings. (Don't worry OOO, I still make purchases on my main knight :p)
  • The Alt may NOT accept any currency or equipment gifts from players. All equipment must be earned. However, the alt may accept costumes or accessories as long as it uses them, and not sells them.
  • The only starting money the alt will receive is the exact CE and Crown amount to create the starting guild
  • The Alt may not participate in Marketing. This means the alt can not make a purchase with the intention of selling higher. Any items bought, will be for the alts use.
  • Any Rare Drops and Materials found may be sold or traded for things the alt needs.
  • The alt may only spend its energy and crowns on items it intends to use.
  • The alt MAY accept any and all friend requests that comes its way, as well as party with ANY knight in ANY mission (including ones it may not have unlocked yet)
  • (rules may be adjusted)

Alt name: Alytia
Companion: Retejev (Drakon)
Current Rank: Soldier
Guild: Victims Of Science
Energy Balance: 0
Crown Balance: 10,386
Last Login: 7/31/13

Boo-yah!

Put me on the roster for this! It looks like quite a challenge & a great comparison between before and after the patch.

OMG THIS SOUNDS AWESOME! Lol. I'd just like to point out, this isn't too much of a challenge. This is my third F2P account, and while I do occasioanlly market, I've probably gotten only 25kcr maximum over all three of my accounts by doing so. Anyway, I hope you enjoy your new alt!

I'd not tell us the name of the alt, or let forumers go with it. This adds bias, as people from the forums could potentially help it too much, or hinder it. Probably help it, given that many forum-goers have been playing for 2+ years.

Oh, and I might be joining you guys for this.

Oh please!

Is it possible to join on Sunday? Lol...?

Because I'm hoping to get a laptop on Sunday...

Unless, of course, my mother decides she doesn't want to withdraw my savings from the bank...

Alt created!

If you wish to join our experiment guild, just send a tell/mail to the alt Alytia.

Also note: The character recruited must be a new knight, HOWEVER, I do not expect others to play to the rules listed above. Those rules are for me alone.

I'll join ASAP

And I will follow the rules set for you. They're interesting x3...

Can you use gathered crowns to buy energy for a Shadow Lair run? I'm aiming for an Almirian Crusader Knight...

I highly support this.

I am also an F2P since I am poor. But being an F2P doesn't mean I work harder than other people to get what I want without the temptation of paying. This actually sounds fun so I'll give it a shot.
