Extreme No-Spend-Tember Challenge!
(currently a wip)
Start date: November 1, 2018
End date: November 1, 2019
Hiya! I'm Nar, and welcome to me attempting to save some goshdarn money for once! I will be undertaking an extreme no-spend-tember challenge, inspired by Grinning Wolf! I have very little money or items, and I've been wanting to gene up a few dergs of mine as well as give my dergs some apparel and skins and such and generally improve my clan as a whole, so I thought what better way to do it than torture myself for a while, right?
I plan on doing this for 6 months instead of a year, because I'm afraid my patience will start wearing really thin, but if I hit the 6 month mark and things are still going good, I might go the distance and finish the whole year. To keep myself from cheating or bailing, I'll be posting my progress here every Friday evening (or Saturday morning, if I don't get around to it.)
Here are the rules I'll be using:
Rules
  • NO spending treasure or gems (Sole Exceptions: You are allowed the use of holiday currency, or to use hoard treasure or gems for the purchase of fodder for profit or DOM.)
  • Establish a regular deposit schedule, and stick to it. I will be depositing every Friday. All applicable items will be deposited at this time. (Sole Exception: You may reserve a maximum of 10g and 15kt in my hoard for the continued purchase of fodder, or as you see fit.)
  • No taking any total out of vault, for any circumstances (Use of hoard treasure is permissable for above listed uses and circumstances.)
  • A running tally must be kept of treasure, gems, and other valuables in the vault to discourage any cheating or dishonesty
  • All perma dragons must be given unawakened familiars, and they must be bonded with on a daily basis
  • All chests gained during the year must be vaulted
Extra Challenges (Super Hardcore Mode Activated)
(These are just other possible, additional challenges I will undertake.)
  • All 99 stacks must be placed in vault for later use (or sale)
  • All Swip/Baldwin usable items must be placed in vault for later use (or sale)
  • All Baldwin mats must be placed in vault for later use (or sale)
  • All eggs gained during the year must be vaulted
  • Any gifts/donations must be vaulted as well
  • When purchasing fodder, it must be purchased using the same currency you will gain from it. (i.e. exalting for treasure means it must be bought with treasure, sending it in to a raffle for gems means it can be bought with gems.)
Now let's have some fun suffering!!!

Friday Update!

Holy frick I'm actually starting this... Anyways, hiya! November 1st has come and gone, and I'm now starting this crazy challenge! I still need to update a bunch of things on the front page, so that'll be a pain, but I'm excited to finally start this thing! I've put pretty much everything in my vault except 10,000kt and 10 gems for fodder purchase, as well as a few familiars and apparel items that don't really matter.
My goal for this week is to get into the habit of coli grinding more so I can exalt some dragons and rake in that sweet sweet cash. I'd also like to make myself a template to use to make bio entries and backstories for all of my permas, but I might leave that one for Thanksgiving break when school's not killing me lol. Anyways, I guess have a great day, and wish me luck in this insane quest!
