R.I.P. to my main Dofus account :(

Anyone following me here from other site I'm part of may remember that a long time ago i used to play an MMORPG called Dofus.

Somewhere in the 3 years that I was busy at university, my account was banned and I finally remembered to try again with recovering the account.

Unfortunately, it appears that the developers had a security breach and a number of accounts were compromised, mine being one of them....

I was informed of this in a support ticket that i filed on saturday, eventually getting a response mid evening yesterday (24th July):

Hello *******,

Thank you for contacting Ankama Customer Support and apologies for the delayed response.

The account was permanently banned for using a bot. Unfortunately, since this is a permanent ban, the account will not be released.

If you have other concerns or inquiries, please feel free to send us a ticket.

Best regards,

Ankama Customer Support"

Anyone familiar with MMOs will know the level of dedication you put into you characters, my best was level 80 and I had quite a few other high progress items, a guild (though it was just me and 2 or 3 other people) and a butt load of materials for baking bread and to sell on the markets (I liked messing with the economy).

Oh well, if i ever decide to go back it's a fresh start for me i guess...

Coliseum of DOOOM!!! 3, 2, 1 Fight! [Fable 2]

I came back to Fable 2 a few days ago for something interesting to do because FPS games have been getting a little stale in recent years.  I managed to finish and get the game's remaining 2 endings (dashboarding and choosing another) and managed 95,449 points with a multiplier of 20 on my 4th attempt of the Coliseum.

I kept bouncing between Time Control 5 and Inferno 4.
If a Flit switch or chicken appeared i would cast Time Control 5,  ignore all enemies and run to it / them and hit / kick them, then re-cast Time Control 5 and restart the casting cycle.
The more annoying enemies were dealt with by using a target Inferno (stilt hobbes, balverines (especially the white one), necromancer).
The Banshee was easy enough, 3 shot-ing it with my Master Blunderbuss.
I managed to beat the Necromancer with 2 minutes left on the clock.

Weapons and Augments
Master Blunderbuss - Lucky Charm, Flame, Ghoul
Master Hammer - Golden Touch, Renewal, Devastation, Discipline

All but 4 of my abilities were 5 star (the other 4 were 4 star).
