Progress…Lots and Lots of Progress

June 30, 2008

Post by Osprey 
I wish I had a screenshot of the first time I looked at Osprey on Warcrafter so I could compare it with where I am now, just to see how far I’ve progressed in that time. I’d settle for a screenie from, oh, the first part of May. Because in these past 2 [...]

Good morning, Class. Today, we’re going to skip the discussion of the Midsummer Fire Festival. If you need a refresher on any of the details, I encourage you to read Professor Dwarf Priest’s most excellent treatise on the Festival.
Instead we are going to focus on how to keep [...]

Chick GM: A New 5-Star Blog

June 20, 2008

A few days ago, Big Bear Butt highlighted a blog he had only recently discovered. I chuckled, because I’d known of Chick GM for quite awhile. In fact, I was going to point out this fact to him by linking my article about Auzara in a comment to his post.
At least, I thought I was. [...]

The plan for The Oroborus Thursday night was to head back to Leotheras the Blind, in Serpentshrine Cavern. Unfortunately, at game time we didn’t have the 44 people on we had the night before, so the raid was called. (Just as an aside, when 28 people are on, and [...]

Post Script: Tidewalker Down

June 18, 2008

We went back last night. We slapped the trash around almost as if they weren’t there. (Alright, maybe not quite that easily, but where we had 5, 6, 8 people die on any given pull on Monday night, 1 or 2 died. And we had a couple flawless pulls.)
We took three shots at Morogrim, and [...]

No, we didn’t one-shot Tidewalker. Nor did we two-shot him: We only had time for one attempt. But I’m going to call it a draw anyway. 
We started invites promptly at PM server time. Again, I was the first healer invited, and we had plenty available. I’m going to continue [...]

That Was The Week That Was

June 16, 2008

I apologize for the un-flashy title. As I write this, I’m watching the 18-hole playoff between Tiger Woods and Rocco Mediate for the US Open Golf Championship. (The US Open may just be my favorite even in all of sports, and I’m a bit of a sports nut.) (Spending 20 minutes on the phone on [...]

Questward Ho!

June 9, 2008

If you are an habitué of the Blog Azeroth chatroom, much of what follows isn’t exactly news. But since I know most of you aren’t, I thought an update on where I am in the game would be timely. (If I totally missed the mark on that, please don’t dispel my illusions.)
A few weeks ago, [...]

Featured Blog: generic hunter blog #3412 (Heroine Chick)

June 6, 2008

First things first: I’m going to try to make this a weekly (Friday) feature. No guarantees, stated or implied. However, since I think I’m on a roll (2 weeks in a row!), we’ll see how it goes. My intent is to feature a blog I’ve added to my blogroll in the past week. These [...]
