My 25th day as an aspiring musician in the game **Rising Star** is coming to an end.

---

Today was another day in which I was not able to realize my self-set goals for this day as successfully as I would have liked.

The reason was a real life appointment that took much longer than expected. We wanted to get a larger load of goat dung for a sustainable community organic farming project with several helpers, and anyone who has tried to organize and coordinate community work like this before will now understand that it can sometimes result in longer unwanted delays. 😃

But anyway.

I still managed to complete at least a significant part of the game content in **Rising Star** that I had planned for today. 

I want to be satisfied with that.

Due to this changed daily routine in the game, I had a few times (unplanned) smaller portions of energy at my free disposal, which could not be accommodated in my preferred missions. 

Therefore, I spontaneously decided to forgo the few **Starbits** I could have earned with **Illegal Busking** or with **Radio Interviews** and instead search for **Crafting Parts** in the missions in the **Custom Shop**.

I decided to look for **Crafting Parts** for **Drums** at the **Drum Fairs** first:

If I interpret the data correctly, there are 4 modules for the **Drums** (**Drumbody**, **Rims**, **Stands**, **Cymbals**), each of which is divided into different qualities. 

From each possible combination of the individual **Crafting Parts** (there are 3 x 3 x 2 x 2 = 36 possible combinations) a **Drum** can be assembled, so that I can build 36 different **Drums** over time.

Unfortunately, I can't tell from the images on the cards for each combination exactly which **Crafting Parts** a particular **Drum** was built from, but I can also just create a spreadsheet and then work with that.

In any case, I'm very curious to see how things will progress in the **Custom Shop** in the near future. I have already found the first parts.

So much for this topic.

Let's move on to today's card pack opening:

I always like to add the rare card **R50 Ali** to my card collection, because with its good fans:skill ratio (100 **Fans**:150 **Skill**) it is one of the (imho) better cards especially for beginners in the game. The rather low number of offers in the ingame market for **R50 Ali** might indicate that I am not completely alone with my opinion in this regard and that the card is well received by other players.

The common card **21 Eric** is not an unusual find, but it is still not one of the cheapest common cards of the **People** category in the game. It will probably take me some time to understand why that is.

All in all, a good find, even if it will take some time for the cards in this pack to increase in value.

Let's move on to my **Achievements** for today:

Today I was able to successfully complete 17 missions:

1x **Open Mic Night**, 2x **Saturday Headline**, 1x **Radio Interview**, 1x **Radio Studio Session**, 9x **Basic Singing Lesson** and 3x **Drum Fair** (Debut!:✅👌💪).

This brought me a total of 2064 **Starbits** and 4655 **Skill Points**. I also found 2x **Coffee Cup**, 4x **Discarded Pizza** and 1x **Four Leaf Clover** during my gigs.

From the **Drum Fairs** I brought 2x **SilverCymbals** and 1x **ChromeStands**.

So far I have 10659 **Total Fans** (all from cards), 12150 **Total Luck**, 43288 **Total Skill** (6487 from cards, 36801 from lessons) and 250 Total **IM** (Income Modifier).

Let's conclude my report with the **Player Rankings**:

Today, as expected, I could not keep my ranking from yesterday and am now on 56th place. For the next few days, I do not expect that I can improve my ranking in any way.

That was my report for today.

I hope you enjoyed it and that I could entertain you for a short time.

Thanks for reading. I hope to meet you here again.

Have a nice day and stay healthy.
