A Modest Proposal

Server and faction transfers are two of the worse things that ever happened to WoW. Why? Because if you’re on the low population side of a server, things have only gotten worse since those features were implemented, not better. I play Alliance on

Update Fail

Seriously? August? Really? I would have thought I’d updated this thing in September.
So, um, hi. Here’s what’s been happening as of lately.
1) Sort of inherited co-GM of Brade Frurry, my guild on Thrall. The old GM and founder

Have You Hugged Your Holy Paladin Today?

So, it’s Patch 3.2. You may have many friends and guildies excited about certain aspects of this patch, but you may have noticed your Holy paladin acting a little differently. They might not be as bubbly as they used to. As everyone is excited to

Whoops!

So I accidentially joined a hardcore regression guild. It was a pretty interesting experience. The first night we went into Ulduar, we one shot the entire thing, cleared all hard modes including Yogg-Saron with zero watchers. The following week we called

3.2: The Head Explosion Patch

Okay, let me get a few things here straight.
# Construction of the Crusaders’ Coliseum is complete. Testing not yet available. New raid normal and heroic modes for the Crusaders’ Coliseum can be toggled using the Dungeon Difficulty setting.

The Ulduar Drinking Game

After much thought, I’ve come up with the following drinking game to be used whenever raiding Ulduar.

With the release of Patch 3.1 of World of Warcraft, entry level raid Naxxramas passed on into obsolescence Tuesday. It was five months old.
“It had a good run,” Blizzard “blue” poster and game designer Ghostcrawler said late

Wrong Toon, Dummy!

So there I was on my shaman, waiting for some slacker pugs to get closer to the stone so we could do some summons for Utgarde Keep. Nobody seemed to be in a big hurry to get there so I was going to level some herbalism. All your goldclover are belong

March Sadness

The last four days are probably my favorite time of year. It’s the NCAA college basketball tournament, where 64 teams battle in a single elimination tournament to determine that year’s champion. The true highlight is the first round, when

3.1 Changes: Sacred Shield Ner…wait, what?

Oh look, some Holy Paladin nerfs changes were announced. Let’s see what we’ve got today!
Sacred Shield - Cannot be on more than one target at any time.

Tagged! The Screenshot Meme

So I’ve been tagged by a couple of people since I am officially one of the worst bloggers in blogging history. Thank you to Dann and HolyWarrior at The Good, The Bad and the Downright Evil for tagging me.

If you’re on Facebook (which I am. I mean, the guy who writes this, not an actual Facebook page for Doofy. Because that would be weird.), you are probably familiar with the 25 Random Things meme that is working its way around like bird flu. You

The Essential Parts of Any Raid: Ventrilo Edition

About a year ago I made an entry on The Essential Parts of Any Raid, showing who you needed to bring in order to have a successful raid. Now, since most raids use a voice chat service such as Ventrilo, it’s time to go through the people you’ll

The Awkward Stage

Despite some attrition thanks to the holidays, Brade Frurry managed to put together two 10-man Naxxramas runs. Kel’Thuzad has now died a few times (the first kill coming on a non-scheduled raid during the holidays), Sartharion is laughably easy
