Had a few interesting things go on this week. LICH KING: First off, we got the Lich King down to 30%. We’re making progress every week and we can all taste it so badly it’s not funny. Right now the second transition phase throws us off balance. And whoever gets taken into the sword seems [...]

Deja Vu… All About Lag
Posted in Dumb Pugs, Epic Dumb, Priest, Random on May 28, 2010 | 8 Comments »
Last night I tried to random on my priest and got what amounted to a group of very juvenile teens from 4 different servers. The tank decided to pull 2 groups at a time in H-OK, while not putting any damage on the spellflingers and saving both for last. I asked them to target the [...]
Main Spec Versus Offspec in Heroics
Posted in Alts, Paladin, Random, Tanking on May 21, 2010 | 24 Comments »
I’ve always been a big believer in rolling on the gear of the role that you’re playing in heroics. I realize that gear in five mans is basically inconsequential at the moment – save for a few pieces in the ICC five mans. But something happened today that made me think a bit. I’ve been [...]
Why I Hate Oculus Now.
Posted in PVE, Random on May 6, 2010 | 4 Comments »
No, I don’t dislike the mechanics. Nor do I mind the time consumed by hopping on and off drakes. The instance itself is now short, provides extra badges, a chance at a mount and the gems that I use for transmutes. What I do hate is the fact that I go through an average of [...]
Extended Maintenance is Extended…
Posted in Random on February 9, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I was a bit annoyed this morning, when hubby told me “oh servers are up, no patch, no maintenance message” and a couple hours later, I logged in to find all servers down with NO message. But eh, I don’t really expect to play Tuesday mornings anyway, and get a lot of work done around [...]
Hubby on his new pally and I on my disc priest with two other guildies got into a H-HoR earlier. The random thing is wacky of course . Well it gave us an awesome enhancement shaman Dwellana who was very patient and when I died [causing our one wipe] she immediately started throwing some heals. [...]
Of Frozen Orbs…
Posted in Epic Dumb, PVE, Random on December 14, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I’ve seen quite a few posts about people “ninjaing” frozen orbs. And while I don’t doubt that some people have – I’ve seen intentional ninjas myself, most of these seem to derive from a difference in the “norms” from server to server. On Thorium Brotherhood, the normal convention is to roll “Greed” on frozen orbs. [...]
My Twitter about WoW…
Posted in Random on December 3, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
No idea if I’ll update it much at all… as I don’t use Twitter for RL stuff typically, but I rather enjoyed wowtwitter. Since they’re shutting wowtwitter down, I figured I’d try the real thing for wow stuff. http://twitter.com/uyankitutankit uyankitutankit… wonder where that came from? LOL, anyway, if you have a twitter for wow stuff [...]
Something that’s been bothering me of late:
Posted in Raiding, Random on December 2, 2009 | 7 Comments »
“OMG that’s a 245! I have a 226/232, so it’s an upgrade!” So many people of late are rolling on gear simply because of item level, without taking any regard for the stats. I’ve seen casters rolling on mp5 gear with no hit. I’ve seen DKs of both roles rolling on block gear, dps dks [...]
Save the Murlocs PSA

Kalyara at Confessions of a Girl Gamer posted this youtube video earlier and it’s definitely worth a look! It’s completely giggle-worthy! http://www.savethemurlocs.org/ The video is hysterical! The site itself is a bit amusing.
