I'm traveling today. Random boon is better than lousy boons.
Signing up for Awakened.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
I was having trouble getting posts to show last night, so I couldn't post, but...I also went Awakened. Fun times.
Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Awakened won! Restocking, stocks, double potions (could be good if you've stockpiled a bunch of stats potions and are ready to use them -- it's only a small chance to reuse, so I'd only use this if I had a ton), wheels, strength of mind (don't remember what this one is).
Hmm. 35k for the week, or wheels? With the extra spin/day, wheels could be nice. Even if I can only spin a few times a day, is usually more lucrative than stocks.
Yeah, going wheels.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
I went with stocks because it's easy. Except...there have been none at 10 all day so far.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Also went with Stock boons. First bought at 11, did get some at 10 yesterday. Today is 12, but I'm holding out to see if there is a 10 later today... :/
ETA: Bought BOTT at 11. Meh. Still better than 15.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
New round, Sway, Awakened, Thieves...
Sway has bank (value depends on your account balance), FQ (worth 0 to 100k+, depending on your training cost and time, and how lucky you get), and wheel (worth ~50-150k/week, depending on how often you can spin -- since they added the free respin to Caverns, I wonder whether you get a bonus spin on that now, too? If so, it could be worth even more).
Thieves has stocks (worth ~35k in a week) and scratchcards (worth more since they raised the prizes).
And Awakened could have all of the above or none of the above, or even double bubble (which could be useful if you're potion-training a pet and use a bunch for the rare chance of a duplicate).
I'd vote for Sway, but I'd also prefer any boon to no boon

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Sway has by far the best guaranteed boons, so I signed up for them. I'm not sure which one I'll pick if we do win, but at the very least, bank boon is always good. FQR is an option, too, especially with how stupidly expensive red codestones have gotten again.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
I signed up with Sway as well. Best to do it now vs. forgetting tomorrow.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Joined Sway!

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Went with the bank boon (before I collected interest). I only have one FQFC left so I'm saving it for Order still.
3. HP. Away. From. Goal.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Tried to post earlier that we won and I was debating between boons, but I kept getting SQL errors.
And then I had to book a plane and a bus for a family gathering with two weeks notice. Because that makes travel cheap. (Plus half my siblings can't make it, and I barely can. Still need to find a cat sitter, and I'm supposed to be spending this time on my own health issues. *Sigh* Guess that's got to wait even longer.)
Oh, but first dailies. I only have to be at work in eight hours. Guess I'll crack open a cookie since I'm up late.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
I had intentionally decided to crack open a cookie "later in the day" to help ensure I got that magical 10th day... and almost forgot. Fortunately realized it around 11:47 NST. Phew. And it was a good one, too.

Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 10]
Bumping this so we remember to look at the new skirmish tomorrow, just in case there's a lot of new plot stuff. A FQ boon be nice (hope springs eternal... It can't be worse than the last one).
Edit: Thieves, Sway, Seekers
Edit: getting a bit late in the day. I know you guys usually like Thieves... I'll give it another hour or two before I join.
