@0/679 gugrus. (Edit: 0/711)
1083 total fish turned in.
Going much slower now. Haven't fished up gugrus in over a week, and buying only those fish I can find that are really cheap. I have 300k of the 800k I borrowed from my brother left over, though he has offered me the rest of his money, including that which he can get off of a 100 shell he's been saving. Probably won't borrow the rest of that money, though; I don't want to be in debt by that much.
(Edit: Spent the 300k just now, as well as another borrowed 200k; no item).
Earlier this month, had to cancel the credit card I was using for FFXI because the information got stolen. Still haven't gotten a replacement in the mail yet, and even if I get it in by the end of the month, not sure if it'll work with the new 3D security measures they've required. I'm reluctant to get another credit card just for FFXI, simply because I don't want to have to bend over backwards just to pay SE. I'm wondering if it's a blessing in disguise that I haven't gotten my ebisu recently; if I stop playing FFXI because of these credit matters, I won't feel as bad about having not gotten it than having gotten in the few days before they cancel my account.
I'm pretty frustrated, obviously.
