It seems that I have found the culprint of my connection issues: Cogent. More specific, Cogent's recently started cooperation with Netflix and the lack of net-neutrality in the US. Cogent is getting handsomely paid by Netflix to route their content throught their infrastructure, which has led to problems for US providers, since Cogent is known for operating at maximum capacity of their hardware. Apparently every STO/NWO player being routed through Cogent suffers from the same problem as me: between 8pm and about 10.15pm, no login is possible and playing is pretty much impossible.
I don't have to wear my tinfoil hat to connect the dots here: Cogent is giving Netflix users priority during Yurop peak time, while the rest can wait to be served. Tonight I am going to try a proxy server, hopefully that will remove the issue.

Seriously, fuck Cogent.

What's not to like about companion oneliners when logging into PE for your praycycle?

*praise Allah*
"Oooooooooooooh"
*ding*
"I put an arrow in everyone's knee!"
*ding*
"meow"
*ding*
"Isn't the sun wonderful?"
*ding*
*10 ponies get summoned at the same time*
*ding*
"Ha! No giant can scare me!"
*ding*
"By the divine will of the divine will of the divine will...."
*ding*
"You're as good as new. Well, nearly..."
*ding*
"Adventuring sure is dangerous!"

*update leadership tasks, switch to next farmhand*
*go back to beginning of this posting*

"I have one word for you: leeches!"

I heard that fag 20 times when i logged into Sharandar, because everybody and his mother dismounted in the puddle to throw fey charms around. :argh:

Go stand in the main Sharandar hub for a while armies of bots are going in and out of the Arcane Reservoir with the healers.

Got myself the book from "Shores of Tuern" for the boons yesterday. Turns out it came from the extra chest you have unlock the key for and not the normal one. I feel a little stupid now for not seeing that coming. I also wonder if the dragon book dropping from Tiamat herself is actually a bug. Would make sense if that the extra 10+ days to unlock the key is not just for an extra chance to drop equipment, considering that it can also drop if the hoard level is just high enough...

Given that the second Tiamat boon takes the previous two books as well and a fuckload of Favors, I think they removed the book from chest drops for Tiamat out of mercy.

Speed racism as usual, only this time I actually intend to use the new boat. Besides that, I'm clearing the reps in Neverwinter and eventually unlocking off-hand artifacts at least for Wizard and Warlock.

Stockpile your gifts so we can later open them in a party, it's a pain in the ass having to do it for every single one.
