Minty says Precious Williams in London is your best bet for the voodoo powder.

I couldn't find Precious Williams. :doh:

Having quit my job during my first attempt to drink myself under, I had to get a new, lower paid job in order to finance my second attempt. This time I've gone for 11 bottles of vodka. Let's see what happens this time...

I'm in London now... or have I hit the road since? If I run into you I can hook you up with some booze or something. You're not a VIP right? If you were I could just transfer you some cash.

No I'm not VIP anymore. Thanks for the offer :thup:

11 bottles wasn't quite enough. Maybe about 20 will do it. I'll get more money next pay day because I only took the job halfway through the week so I think I should have about enough for 18 or 19 bottles of vodka :D

Heh I've received $77k in dividends from April Ink so what better thing to do than spend it all on the ultimate bender:

60x Vodka (Stolichnaya)
9x Brandy
9x Canadian Whiskey
18x Single Malt Whisky
54x Champagne
9x Heart Shaped Chocolates
6x Cans of Whipped Cream
9x Birthday Cake

My health was at 53% to being with. Surely this is going to push me over the edge :D

darn it! It only took me down to 10% health. It's really hard to kill your character on this game! ](*,)

I thought Precious Williams was a shop but apparently it's a person so I'll look them up to see if they have some voodoo powder.

deknegt--I think you are

1. Misunderstanding Tasku... he is joking around (And Finnish, not Swedish) he has not played the game for some time I believe.

2. There are a couple of guys who are still playing...but they are not around on the weekends here. The board is quiet on weekends.

3. Being EXTREMELY impatient, and somewhat impolite. You will likely have to

a. wait until at least Monday.
b. ask specific questions.
c. check out this thread more carefully for answers.
d. ask the guys on popo...the names are all there.

If you do not want to do these things, then you may not get help..others may not want to help someone so impatient.

Yeah. I was just answering your second question on my part: "Does anyone play this game anymore?"

I don't. If someone else does, I dunno... :dunno:

I still play but I'm not all that enthusiastic about it. It's more something to pass the time when I'm bored at work.

If you have specific questions I'll try my best to answer them.

No problem. I'm sorry too if my reply gave you the idea I was intentionally being a duck or shooting your question down.

Your best bet is to start off learning at the Unis. They just teach classes without having a master/apprentice relationship (I don't know how that works because I haven't done it). Most of us that are already involved don't really have the time to be someone's master due to our touring schedules. I know I'm almost always on the road. I've usually got a show every 2 or 3 days, with jams working in between and sometimes recording sessions too.

To have a master, you first need to have a high enough friendship level with that particular person you want as a master. (i think you need 70%)

The Popo forums are a bit messy, but you should check the one of the city you're in. There's always a thread with the schedule of the lessons at the Unis. Contact the teachers via PM in the game, and they'll most likely be glad to explain you how those things work, when they'll be available for interactions (if they're not yet in your city), etc.

If you have questions regarding the game itself, you should check the Popo section in the Knowledge Base, or perform a search into this thread. Many things have already been said ;) The help section in the game can be usefull too. Then of course, if you have questions left without any answer, don't hesitate to ask here (or via PM to our characters) and we'll see if we can help you :) Just don't be too impatient (especially on weekends) for answers: it's really irritating... ;)

Hey, I just thought I'd drop you all a line. I'm not sure how many of you are in bands that play these genres, but thought I would let you know that I run two clubs. The first one is one that I own in NY its a rock club called rock till you drop. The second is a R&B club that I CEO for (for a friend who showed me the ropes of CEOing a club). The R&B club is G Spot in BA. If any of you are in one of the genres let me know when it comes to that town for your tour and I will hook you up with a show. BTW I apologize if i'm stepping on toes with other people's clubs (I don't think I am since I think the only one here who owns a club in the same city is Minty and its a diff genre).
