So I Think I’ve Mentioned This Before…

We’re back from Edinburgh, and what better way to get back into WoW blogging than with a FailPug post.

Tam and I came back to find that our Guild was pretty much as we left it (we’d been terrified that we’d come back and find them half way down Ulduar-25 hard-mode and be all like “sorry, who . . . → Read More: So I Think I’ve Mentioned This Before…

Things Tam Did Not Do In Edinburgh

He did not spot a toy pig in a sci/fantasy bookshop, leading him to opine joyously and at length about how it resembled his dwarf hunter’s pet.

He did not then attempt to “tame” this poor, innocent animal in the bookshop, nor did he promise faithfully to keep it on passive while instancing in Edinburgh. Because . . . → Read More: Things Tam Did Not Do In Edinburgh

We turned his world upside down!

Another post that time forgot. We are still in Edinburgh, returning tomorrow – public transport permitting.

For those who have followed our on-going travails with MagT, I came home from an evening out with a group of friends last Sunday, completely tanked on champagne, and decided that this was the night we’d conquer heroic mode. “I . . . → Read More: We turned his world upside down!

WTB flying mount

Edinburgh is a gorgeous, vibrant, wonderful city and I love it to pieces.

However, it is also Shattrath, or at least how Shattrath would be it I had an enormous castle hewn out of the very rockface in the middle of it, instead of, like, a Naaru.

Most of the cities I know and love are, well, basically . . . → Read More: WTB flying mount

It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both

Firstly: M’Pocket Tank and I will be in Edinburgh from Saturday for a week, drinking theatre like it’s cheap plonk, and therefore any WoWblogging is likely to be erratic. Since time between shows is invariably spent sitting artsily in coffee shops squabbling over an Eee-pc, it may not stop altogether but we will most certainly . . . → Read More: It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both

Yet Another Argent Tournament Post

It’s been a week or so since 3.2 launched and we got to see the Argent Colosseum in all its glory. Well by “in all its glory” I actually mean “the new 5-man” because I’m nowhere near raid content yet. I’ve run it all of once and I got a completely useless piece of healing plate . . . → Read More: Yet Another Argent Tournament Post

I’d like a side-order of irony with my irony, please

So, WotLK has been out since November and here are talking about the trailer for it. I was going to put this in a comment to Chas’s previous post but then I realised it was probably lengthy (and silly) enough to merit a post of its very own. And what’s the point of having . . . → Read More: I’d like a side-order of irony with my irony, please

Thoughts on Trailers

This is a post I’ve been meaning to do ever since patch 3.2.

It’s not about 3.2 in any way, but when Tam and I were killing time waiting for the server to get back online, I decided to have a look through the old trailers for Vanilla WoW and the Burning Crusade.

You can still see these . . . → Read More: Thoughts on Trailers

i will never heal dickheads again

Over the weekend I virtually re-connected with an old friend who’s been on a bit of a hiatus from WoW. He’s one of the movers and shakers in the server’s leading progression guild and, although I hesitate to term him a failfriend, I think we’ve got ourselves into an unfortunate psychological deadlock. It reminds . . . → Read More: i will never heal dickheads again
