Contrary to what you may have thought, I’m not dead and haven’t given up WoW – it’s just that ironically the more time I spend playing the game, the less time I spend blogging about it.
To remind those of you who care, and who don’t still think that Tam and I are the same person (we . . . → Read More: Bring the Consumables, Not the Class

I should start out by saying that this is one of those Captain Redbeard Rum posts. “There’s two schools of thought on that. All the other captains say it is, I say it isn’t.”

The title of this post was going to be “BLANK is a four-letter word” but I couldn’t think of a synonym for “trying” that had four letters (except work, and it didn’t have quite the right connotations).
Yesterday, the following message popped up in Guild Chat:

I think I’ve used this title before (it’s my default for anything to do with the shiny yellow stuff) but ho hum.
Klepsacovic, over at Troll Racials are Overpowered wrote a post about pie. The metaphor kind of pie. It was in two parts, the second part was about tanking, and how we would all be far . . . → Read More: Always Believe In Your Soul

Yes, we’re still talking about Gevlon and Game Theory.
Because I like game theory.
The Ultimatum Game
Part of Gevlon’s response to Tam’s original post was about a game-theoretical/economic concept called “Inequity Aversion”. Gevlon’s take on the subject is this:
This ape-subroutine is called “Inequity aversion“, and it’s literally an ape-subroutine as it is observed among monkeys. The typical test . . . → Read More: Inequity Aversion and Asshole Chicken

This is a bit embarrassing, especially since I swore myself black in the face I would never … but … uh … it seems that I’ve started working on *looks right and left sheepishly* Loremaster.

Hopefully the title says it all. If you’re not the slighest bit interestet in healing, I suggest you look away now. In fact, go look at Snottydin because she’s a girl irl and her words of wisdom in the trials and tribulations of being such in WoW have been transcribed today by the DDK.

Bollocks to it, not only did I leave my today’s post at home on the wrong computer, but I also forgot to hit publish on this yesterday. Fail, fail, nothing but fail.

A brief digression: I healed ToC heroic for a not absurdly over-geared party a few nights back. It was a struggle, a genuine struggle, but then it always is. But there were no wipes (a personal record for me), only 1 death and, although I was pretty wrung out afterwards, I felt pretty damn . . . → Read More: Oh brave new wtf

Today we have some disconnected thoughts.
An Invitation: Snottydin Needs You!
So Snottydin, as I guess it should be, is totally way more cool and awesome and popular than rubbish little me, standing at the back in my sissy robe. But, yeah, I cannot quite bring myself to let the Internet swallow her into silence – therefore . . . → Read More: theme, i don’t need no stinking theme
