I'm also MelodicBlue, but I have Sprout pals & I try to keep them un-spoilered, so late game stuff is here. Unhinged about #Norvrandt, #EorzeanMuseums, but also #LoveAndDeepspace

Cinder Surprise returns from vacation next week! Are you ready? If you're like me, you might get flustered in the moment and struggle to remember all the steps to give yourself the best chance of catching the Big Fish. Maybe this little song I wrote will help you out!

I feel I should also point out that in this age of bot comments, the more keysmashy and hyped up you sound, the more likely we are to recognize the comment as one that came from a real human. 🥹

Martin has been an integral part of my team for running FFXIV stuff at Dragon Con for three years now and has been a positive force in the community, especially in the RP space, for ages beyond that. I'm so glad they're still here; let's do what we can to support them now & for future shenanigans! 💜

Starting Day 4 and over 250 small-sized fish have be caught and recorded!

No Ruby Dragons qualified this morning, with only 1 window left during the derby. There's also some difficulty fish coming up.

Will the fishing community be able to get these rare small fish?! #FFXIV
🔍 Introducing... The Little Derby!

The third annual fishcord #FFXIV fishing derby challenges the community to catch all 289 big fish from ARR -> EW in the next 10 days, but for it to count...

... it must be under a certain size.

I host this derby every year as a fun community event, and to give everyone a chance to practice and learn new fishing techniques and ways of thinking about fishing. It's just as much an entertainment event as it is educational.

It also encourages group collaboration to ensure there are enough people going for fish to make sure a small one is caught - adding a community and social aspect to the event.

This challenge gets fishers thinking about their skill usage and what gear they should use.

Normally used skills, like Patience and Prize Catch, can't be used in some cases, forcing fishers to change how they normally approach a fish.

And for those who are just starting to follow along - this is the Fishcord Fishing derby. A challenge I put out to the #FFXIV fishing community every year.

This year, they have to catch EVERY big+legendary fish in ARR -> EW beneath a certain size threshold.

Couldn't get my 5th Shapeshifter for the Aquamaton window, but did get the Shadeshifter before DDOS hit. So now I'm voluntarily detained in Kholusia to wait for the next Aquamaton window to try and get intuition. ~1 hr 10 mins to go. Guess I'll do IRL chores? #LittleFishingDerbyXIV

Alright I got some commissions that has helped close the gap just enough. I think I have enough room for 1 more commission to help make sure I have some funds before I close them up for the end of the year.

Again I can't appriciate all of you that have shared and commissioned me enough 🙏

Last year was my first time participating in the derby; it was so much fun and I made incredible progress on my Big Fishing path to the Final Fish title. I'm having a blast this year too, and I've already added 9 new fish to my logs! 213/289 Only 76 fish remain till I hit my goal!

I mostly avoided the Oracle of Stars event because it was too risky, but I did manage to get the purple ears so I could finally dress my MC up as my WoL!
