Yay Assault! (FFXI)

Heh, where else would you hear 'Yay Assault!' outside of FFXI? :P
Even though we were two members short, we won all four! Two Preemptive Strikes and two 13s. 13 is so easy for us! Draque keeps hate on Carby, which means no one ever gets charmed. I dispel the NPCs in the beginning and they never get recharmed. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am~.
D, I'm not sure if your request to do lots and lots of 13 (8 in a row) was serious or not. If it was, a couple things to keep in mind:
1) Ilrusi Atoll is the area we need the least points in, by a lot. (20K there, next lowest is 28K, followed by 33K and 40K.) However, on the other hand, everyone except me wants something from there.
2) Since 13 is our "relaxing" assault, would we rather spread it out? Otherwise we'll end up doing something like Requiem four times in a week. :P
When I pick the four we do, I try to balance it. One easy one, one yucky one, and two medium ones. If we use up all the points in Ilrusi, we'll not have an easy one for later. (Though we might find other ones we really like!)
Basically we have two choices: Spam an area to get it finished or try to spread ourselves out. I was scheduling things on the 'spread out' idea, but I'd be open to either. However, that would leave us with long stretches in the "bad" areas. (For example: Periqia needs 33K points.)
Other than that, nothing big. Digging was meh, digging on Chaser is interesting (every day I see tiny little improvements! They could be chance, but maybe not. Yesterday was the first time I got more than one item in a row! Today I got my first 'uncommon' level item!). Chaser is at 88K/100K guildpoints on her apron -- so ready to be done with the gilsink that is GP!
Thursday we'll probably get some of our WSNMs out of the way, but other than that who knows what'll happen for the rest of the week!
