Thanks so much. I was lucky and had a Merchant artifact going when I got the new room and was already on a playing binge. I saw myself on the board at #4 very early on and decided to keep playing for keys to see if maybe I could get and stay in the top 50 to get a silver chest. I don't know if I can keep it up but we all got bronze chests the last time they did a 1000 so I figured with a good start I might as well try and see if I can get something better this time. There's a long way to go though so it will depend on how much other's play and if I real life allows me to play a bit every day. I have a system that seems to work on getting more banishing items. It may be just a superstition but I've checked results twice and did better both times. Usually when I finish an event and don't return I have between 200-215 banishing items that count. When we did the Villa I started clicking on the monsters on the board so there is an arrow over the event room and that event I ended up with 251 keys when I got my avatar and easily got the bronze chest without anymore play. I did not care with MS or CW because I hated the rooms and knew there was no way I would play over what I needed for the quests and avatars and got no more than 215 banishing items. This time I went back to clicking on the monsters before playing (clicking "Find") and just like the Villa I got a 254 items when I reached Virtuoso so it seems like a pattern. I'll try it again the next time there is another room I like and if the results are the same I will know it is not just a superstition. I missed my MRI appointment because my hubby wrote the wrong time on the calendar. It's now scheduled for the 21st. The only way I can speed things up would be to go to our Urgent Care center. I'm not getting a whole lot of sleep so I just may do that. I can't seem to even sleep for a whole hour and am getting exhausted from being in pain all the time. I'll let you know what happens.

Congrats on your 200!!! Is there any special collection that you would like? I will send you some celebrating gifts but if there is something specific that would help you please let me know. Tools, energy, summoners, key collections? Please let me know if there is anything that you would prefer. I even have some duplicates and triplicates on some rare items and fixers but not all of them. If you need anything I can check what I have. I'd prefer to send you something you can really use rather than guessing. Great job in getting so far in the game!!
