I got my hoard finished. And promptly took out all of my wears and shoved them back in my wardrobe. Then immediately made a mostly nude avatar to try to track my infection.

But seriously you guys. I can't even tell you how happy I am. I'd like to thank the Survival event finally starting, as what allowed me to finally finish this monstrosity. As well as countless hundreds of millions of sP spent, thousands upon thousands of wizard tokens lost to the token shop, years of neglecting my avatars so that my hoard might flourish.

I wish I could say how long I spent on this achievement. It was always sort of there, shoving items in to my shop. Not pricing it. Then, who knows how long ago, Keith announced he would be retiring the hoarder achievement. I panicked. I had very little invested in this achievement! How dare he retire it!? So I started focusing on it a little more. There were times when it was ignored. There were times when I was fueled by a deep desire to own at least one copy of at least 45k different items. Just this year alone, I have dropped over 500m in to my hoard. It started small. Buy all of the items under 2k. 10k. 50k. I own - more or less - one copy of every item that I could buy for under 1m. Not to mention all of the time spent kissing, dancing, trick or treating, trying to get my greedy little tentacles on every single free item I could.

And now it's done and all I have is this lousy achievement. (I kid I kid, my husband just asked me a few times what I got for finishing it. No item prize. No title.) (And speaking of my husband, he gets a special shout out for literally listening to me bitch about this for years. About pixels. For offering advice. About pixels. For pretending to care. About my pixels. I love you )

And now to take it all apart and try to regain some of my lost money. I really can't wait to buy art ... maybe CWs (or CSC) with sP ... To finally focus on getting Pacifist really nice weapons and getting her all the way to t13! It's been terrible, hoard. I'm glad I don't have to think about you any more.

bird and bear and hare and fish give my love her fondest wish

Congratulations, I like your name by the way ;) I started the same goal last year. I dont think I have gotten very far yet though

All stories, even the ones we love, must eventually come to an end and when they do, it's only an opportunity for another story to begin.
