I know not all of my readers want to be spoiled for Wrath of the Lich King, so I’m going to be posting any spoilery WotLK stuff behind a “read more” jump cut tag, and the first line will warn of spoilers (for those reading from a feed reader).
That’s all, carry on - and […]

…very, very lucky!
Thanks to a kind and generous friend, I have a Wrath of the Lich King beta key in my hot little hands.
This isn’t going to become an All WotLK, All The Time blog, but you can definitely expect some beta content around these parts. ;-)

Okay, it’s been brought to my attention that the feed from Banana Shoulders often comes out as badly-parsed gibberish when viewed via LiveJournal’s internal aggregator. No-one else has reported a problem, but if you’re having issues with reading the Banana Shoulders feed, please let me know via the comments. In the meantime, I’ll try and […]

I just wanted to recommend an excellent post from Anna at Too Many Annas: Herding Cats. It discusses what to do if you’re suddenly faced with having to play healing lead with little experience in the job.
It’s an excellent summary of the steps to go through when preparing to act as a healing strategist, and […]

I’d just like to take a moment enthuse about a new podcast on the WoW blogging scene: Twisted Nether. It’s hosted by Fimlys of Asleep at the WoW, and Breana of Gun Lovin’ Dwarf Chick, and it focuses on news from the WoW-o-sphere and the WoW-blog-o-sphere. Fim and Bre are always worth listening to, and […]

First of all, I’d like to apologise for my radio silence over the last, oh, month or two. My health yo-yoed quite a lot, which made it hard to keep up with WoW, let alone blogging - and, of course, once you’ve had a break it’s hard to know where to start again.
Anyway, I’m back […]

Major new content’s going to be a bit thin on the ground hereabouts for the next few days while I power through as much Shattered Sun content as possible.
However, my Guide to Shattered Sun Daily Quests is being regularly updated, so take a look there if you’re interested in the new content but you don’t […]

A recent conversation in Trade channel, transcribed verbatim:
Gold farmer: [insert gold seller spam here, including phrase “100% legal”]
Player A: I like that 100% legal bit, as it is 0% legal
Me: Actually, is it illegal? It’s against the EULA and the TOS, but they’re not laws
Player A: It is “illegal” as far as Blizzard is concerned
Me: […]

I’ve got a big post half-written at the moment, but I’ll interrupt that to make a quick website recommendation:
WoW Character Watch, a website developed and offered by Alinden of Moar HP Than Jesus, provides a handy service for anyone interested in keeping track of their friends, enemies, and anyone else. (The tagline is “We watch […]

Thankfully, after the most recent patch, the PTR is playable again - with all mods loaded and graphic effects at maximum, the framerate is still decent.
Unfortunately, I missed a lot of the Shattered Sun daily content; all the phases are now open. I’ll still do an overall guide to the SSO dailies, and I hope […]
