P/W

-Completing Prophecies 5 times just with pugs. (not starting difficult mission before 22.00 helped :P )
-Completing tombs balanced with ele and mesmer.
-Killing everything that moves in FoW.
-Doing the unwanted guests quest in UW.
-Doing the deep with 6 men, being a paragon tank and making it out of the 2nd start spot with a mesmer and a monk on my side on that run.

1 - Making over 1000k.
2 - Wasting over 600k of it on Spiked Eggnogs in just under an hour. (maybe not an achievment, but rather a mistake?)
3 - Getting enough ecto/shards for FoW armor.
4 - Getting Tyrian/Canthan/Elonian GMC.
5 - Capping all elites on my monk.
6 - Finding out who was controlling Froggie in one of his appearances, other than Gaile Gray. Marcus [blank] (can't say it here). As soon as I found out I said "Marcus [blank], eh? " and he hid in offline mode.

1. Getting to the Crystal Desert (seemed like a big deal at the time)
2. Beating the Doppelganger with my monk (easy with the right skill set, but it took me a few tries)
3. Finding a copy of NF Preview on ebay for 99ยข
4. Getting Tyrian Explorer title for my Factions character (ever backtrack from LA to Ascalon City?)

That's it off the top of my head

My Elona-born 3-month old necromancer:
-Tyrian Master Cartographer, Protector of Tyria, Elonan Cartographer, Protector of Elona, about 1/2 way toward the same titles in Cantha, working on a ton of other titles, has capped all necro elites for all 3 chapters and is working on the rest, I got her Vabbi armor dyed white, she's otherwise fully color-coordinated in pink (hair, eyes, and her other armor), she gets nice drops (got the Nightbringer, Robah's Axe, and a black dye in one instance), etc.
- I have 10 other level 20's besides her.

-Managing to skip the majority of the missions in Tyria and getting to Sanctum Cay without knowing what I was doing. Who needs runners when you have pure stupidity on your side?
-Staying with my guild despite the childishness of some of my guildies.
-Running through Turai's Procession to the Gates of Desolation. I didn't know it led there at the time.
-Taking breaks when I need to without feeling guilty.
-Not sweating titles. I have a few but nothing special. I can't wait to see how I can become Spearmarshal!!
-Resisted the urge to make a W/Mo.

First ones that come to mind....

* Winning the skill pins and shirt for my entry in the 2006 Halloween contest.
* Making my first million gold
* Kind of a Big Deal (3 protectors, GMC for Tyria with no arenas, GMC Elona)
* Finding every rune. It took a year before my first Superior Vigor and Abs dropped.
* My first ecto, shard, ruby, and sapphire drops. The chest popping out an elemental sword. Those made me so happy.
* Not going more than 3 days without playing since I first started. Yes, the day after I got home with my second bundle of joy I logged on to say hi to my guildies.
* Finding my very weird ele staff. Req earth, HCT water, HSR fire, Air+1.

I loved all your accomplishments. but I think 'resisted the urge to make a W/Mo' is maybe my fav. I'm still laughing.

Since I've never beat the Mad King Thorn at Rock Paper Scissors... in fact he's never even challenged me, he's completely shunned me, I still feel unfulfilled, so I'll just have to wait to post my game highlights.

HOLY CRAP! Did you cap powerblock with the original Signet of Capture? That's insane?!!! If so, this one wins!

For those that haven't played since the beginning, signet caps only worked when the boss was casting the spell.
