You should write your name on your underwear, Double D. See? I'm "Hand-Wash Only"!

LEVELS:
  • Idachi hit 68 on Thursday, which I kinda forgot to mention. Two more levels!
  • Nol is 35 now and getting closer and closer to his robobird. Yay, robobirds!
  • Hanryn hit 24 early this morning, which was awesome. Being a spookypriest not only allows me to plow through my enemies, but also my mana! I have to drink after every two fights...yeesh.
  • Today was a good day for priests; Lyndall hit 33 while in Scarlet Monastery! And thanks to Berronar's crazy ass SM tactics, we did 3 runs in maybe 30 minutes and I got Whitemane's Chapau Chapaeu Chapaeo Hat.

OTHER:

  • Also hooray for Jeefs and his shiny new epic mount! Way to not be slow anymore!
  • It was decided almost unanimously that Kaie be booted out of the guild, which fills me with almost a little schoolgirlish delight! Sure, Zammi or Fodder or whatever might be a little upset, but she was a total mooch and one of those creepy desparate housewives just begging for some cybering, which only makes me wonder what's going on at the Bunger household. Oh sure, Bunger, I might be able to heal "Almost as well as you" (fucking prick), but you can't even satisfy your wife! HA!

And someday, when the world is rid of Manbearpig, everyone will say, "Thank you Al Gore—you're super awesome!"

LEVELS:
  • Idachi just hit 67 from all this instance running mania going on. It's great to be levelling her again.

OTHER:

  • We've been going to Old Hillsbrad a lot lately...and it's probably my second or third favorite instance. It's fairly short, it involves Thrall, elf characters become human, and you only have so many tries to get it right and then it's all over!
  • Idachi + officer rank = PHENOMINAL COSMIC POWER!
  • Illum. also did a 12-man ZG run on Thursday and obliterated everything in our path until we got to the spider boss. Got her down to 7% though...she was as good as dead. Anyway, won the [Blood Scythe], which allows me to pick herbs in ZG....woo, I'm useful!
  • Speaking of useful, Idachi found a [Design: Living Teardrop Ruby], which sells on the AH anywhere between 300 and 450 gold. Of course, I'm a good person (read: chump) and it's in Tyranis' little squiddy hands.

Up yours, Zoidberg. Up wherever your species traditionally crams things.

LEVELS:

  • Hanryn's at it again, now at levle 23. I feel kinda bad for not playing him in quite a while, but now that he's shadow specced he'll probably level faster (I hope). Well, he's not 100% shadow. Han's actually got a very weirdo 22/5/33 thing going on. Those 5 points in healing are mostly there to boost my Renew and make sure my healing spells don't get interrupted when I have to heal.

OTHER:

  • Just messing around on the intertubes, and I found out if I sold Idachi, she'd go for at least $450. Fucking nuts. Buying and selling characters is morally wrong and for total pussies (and I'm pretty sure gold/account buyers have their very own level of hell), but if I ever was to do that she'd sell for at least $420-450. Yeesh.
  • Also whilst messing around, I snagged a Burning Crusade (AKA "How to level your character from 60 to 70") guide. I thought it was going to be bad engrish and a crappy .doc file; it's actually a very, very nicely written .psd with lots of info. Who knew? I don't think I'll be using it that much (I mean, Idachi's already more than halfway to 70), but it is cool to see in what order I should be doing quests and where the super best spot to grind is.

Little fools! I am Lucifer! Beelzebub! The Reaper of Souls! The Really Angry One!

LEVELS:
  • Hanryn became a spooky priest and hit 22 today. Well, Spooky/dicipline, but who's counting? When fighting beasts I couldn't tell much of a difference between going shadow or staying holy, but on humanoids I seemed to be wiping them out much faster. Of course, I only have about 20 points into the shadow tree right now, so I'm sure there's not all that much of a glaring difference yet.

... Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate?

LEVELS:
  • Shendir (remember her?) hit 45 today! What started out as a Whelp farming session in the Badlands (I want a whelp pet for her) turned into a full-fledged grind marathon. And what fun it sorta was!

How hard can it be to blow up a room full of gasoline?

LEVELS:
  • Idachi hit 66 last night AND got some mondo fancy new pauldrons. I'd call that a good day. Also finished Underbog for the first time yesterday. That end boss is a weird dude, but I just can't complain about floating above everyone's head out of range of the boss healing everyone.
  • Nollerskates (now on Staggy-waggy-helm!) hit 33 this afternoon and is learning how to Frost Nova/Blizzard grind. Sure, he's died and awful lot when I was first learning how, BUT IT'S TOO DAMN FUN. He's up to killing at least three things at once pretty well; four mobs at a time is a little more difficult, but still possible (sometimes). He needs a LOT more mana to pull this tactic off, though.

I'm having a major hat crisis. Could you steal Pikachu some other time?

LEVELS:
  • Idachi went from 48% to about 62% today, which doesn't really sound like much, but it is. I mean, each quest gives about 10,500 experience, and I only went up like 20 percent! If I quest like madness today, I might even be able to level her (only 22 quests to go!). Of course, my real goal is to just get her up another 20-or-so percent.

OTHER:

  • We will be attempting to transfer Nol for realsies this time. I tried on Wednesday and it seemed like it was going to let me transfer him....asking questions I've never seen it ask before (such as "Do you want to transfer this character?" and "What is your credit card info?"). Who knows, maybe he will get transferred today. I know I was going to wait until 40 to move him, but he's just too gimpy to do anything with right now.
  • Hanryn, Hanryn, Hanryn. What to do with him? Actually, to spice things up between him and Lyndall, Han might go Dicipline/Holy. Or maybe even throw some Shadow talents in there. It's all speculative.

We look like bad guys! Incompetent bad guys!

LEVELS:
  • Lyndall's up to level 32, woo! She finally got Mind Control, which is really more fun than it needs to be. She also got her "when I die I become a spirit healer" thing, which will be useful....eventually...but since Jeff's dr00d and I don't do a lot of dying, it's just kinda there.
  • Nol also hit 32 this afternoon as well. Looks like I'll be paying for two mounts at the same time...again. Bah. Anyway, Stranglethorn Vale is a hellhole on PvP servers. Can't complain too much though...I've had my share of ganking Blood Elves.
