How I became GM of an unnamed guild.
My guild that I’ve been in since the day that I joined WoW went BOOM about 3 weeks ago. It happened for many reasons.. let’s leave it at the fact that it happened. The outcome is that is now styled as a “Social guild” with no set raiding schedule. I want a set raiding ...

Druids are weird

Addon: Multishot (Screenshot)
No, this isn’t a hunter addon.. though I suppose hunters could use it . Multishot is a tiny little addon that will automatically takes screenshots for you when certain events happen. As you can see by my config (which I’m pretty sure is the default out-of-the-box config). It can ...

Turkey Time
On second attempt (on a different toon, at a different time) the “Turkinator” achievement isn’t as easy as it was the first time. The first time I did the achievement on Lilac at about 1am PST. So there wasn’t -any- competition. With subsequent attempts on other toons ...

Turkinator Lilac
Go to Elwynn. Make a macro: /target Wild Turkey /cast corruption Put this on a keybound button. Mount up, run along the edges of the water ways (avoid the murlocks.. as a guildie mentioned.. obviously murlocs eat turkeys because no turkeys spawned near the murloc village) and slightly ...

Addon: Recount
Recount is a DPS meter. I’m sure there are others around.. but Recount seems to be the #1 choice. When you install recount it will begin watching as you fight and record how much healing/damage/cleansing you/your party/your raid does. By default on my Warlock when I’m out of ...

Super Green!
It only goes 280. I am exalted with.. and yet hate the Oracles. My banker has 4 [tickbird hatchlings]. I couldn’t be happier (well .. unless they made it 310.. and made my tickbirds sell for more than 2g).

Pugnacious Pally
I’ve decided to play and gear up my Paladin a bit. Don’t be alarmed.. my first love is all things Warlockery.. but sometimes the group just needs a healer.. and I feel bad having one.. but not having her properly geared. Wednesday night I shuffled her gear around and made sure I ...

Rawr! I’m a tank!
At the moment (patch 3.2.2) Deep Destruction is the acknowledged “best” Warlock DPS spec. I know this, you know this, we all get it. I’ve got it as my off-spec but haven’t seen the uber numbers with it so I continue to play as Affliction. A few days ago I wandered over ...

Through a keyhole darkly
While listening to Rawrcast I heard Stomp say that she’s “grinding exalted with the running circles in Dalaran boss”. I’m aware of that boss. I know of people who do that.. they hang out in Dalaran waiting for someone to pick them up from LFG so they can “have ...

Getting in touch with my inner druid
My baby druid is now level 56. I keep hoping the more I play her that I’ll come up with a compelling reason to level her. I think at this point I’m leveling her because I want to fly like a birdie.. and because I’m fascinated by the -idea- of a druid. I like the concept of ...

The Little Things
There are 1,001 HUGE things the Blizz could implement. I get dazzled just thinking about things like Guild Housing, Path of the Titans, Guild leveling and such. But sometimes.. I wish they’d just implement some little things from my want list. They’re not huge.. they’re just.. ...

Something Strange in Stranglethorn
Remember back.. during Blizzcon.. when all the changes were announced? They never mentioned Stranglethorn. Not once. I assumed that’s because it was on the other continent from where Deathwing was coming up out of the ground that he just kind of missed it. Remember back.. shortly after ...

“You are standing in an Inn”
chicanery.fibergeek.com — Once upon a time I played D&D (it was in college.. everyone was doing it). I think... I played a ranger. I like bows and shooting things from range.
