Tonight in World of Warcraft - Monday February 8th, 2010

Well I hope if anyone was heavily invested in the Super Bowl that last night was good for them. Me personally i couldn't get into the matchup, and the fact it was a close game made me stick around longer than I would have otherwise. Also the commercials were just for the most part weird, or downright bad. Ah well.

Old Skool went into AQ40 last night, and I have no idea how it went. I think they were trying to 8 man the Two Emperors. Curious if they pulled that off. That's such a buggy fight.

Tonight - Monday, February 8th

Shump dropped another OS on the schedule here for anyone who hasn't done the raid weekly yet, we've set one up for Monday before the reset. One of the quickest and easiest raid weeklys you can do folks with Sartharion. Plenty of alts still who might want it. Don't miss it. It's the only thing on the schedule so I have a feeling it's going to be a low key night with people doing achievments for Love is in the Air. Anyone hit the new holiday bosses yet or get the love rocket mount?

Blue Submarine #6

 

The entire mini-series, first saw this on Toonami (forerunner of Adult Swim) on Cartoon Network back in 2000.

One of the first anime series to combine CGI and traditional animation, also had a decent soundtrack (kind of a acid jazz).

Tonight in World of Warcraft - Sunday February 7th, 2010

Well thanks to some friends from out of guild we filled up our last spots and were able to hit ICC 25. We did a fairly impressive job, i thought, of the trash clearing. We got Marrowgar down to 8%, and I think by the last wipe our execution was acutally getting pretty good. We had problems healing the phase changes, but we also had a number of undergeared people doing sub par dps. This is NO FAULT of their own, They let me know their situation, but I was hoping we could get through it. Really our best guys are mostly in ToC 10 gear, and some ICC 10. For the most part this is 2 tiers behind where we should be for ICC 25. However I think with a little more gear spread around some of our newer folk particularly we're golden for the first wing of ICC and more.

However, we do need to focus on ToC 25 for the next few weeks at least on Tuesday. If we can clear ToC 25 every tuesday our gear situation will improve rapidly, along with the newer peopel running heroics for T9 gear. Therefore I changed Tuesday's raid to ToC, adn we can talk about Thursday's 25 man raid. We can go into ICC 25 again if we want, but it might be better to split and do 2 - 10 man ToC's for other gear or 2 10 mans ICC"s, or a combination. I'm leaning at the moment for Tuesday 25 man ToC and Thursday at least 1 10 man ICC till we gear up a little more.

Tonight in World of Warcraft - Saturday February 6th, 2010

Well, it's the snowpocaylpse here. Unlike where Tranq lives which apparently regularly gets 2 feet of snow overnight, it's pretty much breaking records around here. We still have power, but that might change, some people we know about 5 blocks from us didn't have power for about 4 hours last night. Trees are coming down all over, snow on power lines. I'll post pictures later. It's really heavy snow. I plan on making some kick ass snowmen today with my kids. Anyway so if we lose power, I'll hopefully be able to get to the site on my phone and post a status update that I'm not gonna be on tonight. Otherwise I fully intend to be on tonight.

Last night though was great fun. We did a mostly guild, with a couple poeple from Ancient Vanguard tagging along, run of Sartharion for the raid weekly. We should have done it as an OS+3 with the dps we had. I had my timer running. With a guy kiting Tenebron away, we would have most likely had it. Maybe next week we schedule it for a Monday and we see what happens. Anyway quick easy kill there, and then we went and knocked over Onyxia 25 as well. Very clean execution, with great tanking from Mogragar, Ielinye, and Melindra.

Tonight...

Tonight in World of Warcraft - Friday, February 5th, 2010

Last night we sent 10 into Ulduar for the hard modes. We one shotted the hard mode of IC without a problem to get the quest item again, which I now have, and open up the 4 quests to kill the keepers hard modes to open Algalon. Then we took down Kologarn DIsarmed and the Crazy Cat Lady for people's achievements for the Glory of Ulduar 10 man. The hardest ones left on here are Firefighter, and then the 1 light in the darkness one on Yog Saron.

Tonight - Friday, February 5th

Shump has an Obsidan Sanctum on the table for 8:30, for the raid weekly. Depending on how many people show up I bet people could go rummage through VoA if it's available, or something else.

TONIGHT in World of Warcraft - February 4th, 2010

Ok so it's been awhile since I've done these. I think with our new raid scheduling it makes sense for me to do them again. Here's what we have upcoming for the week.

---

Tonight - Thursday February 4th

Ulduar Hardmodes (10) are on the plate. Starting with Iron Council to get the quest item again. It was easy mode last time...until Meraxes forgot to assign a cleanser for Khammie and SPLAT. We're not overflowing with sigups, but we have 10, however if enough people sign up and show up, a second Ulduar, or a ToC 10 man is easily done, and wouldn't conflict with anything else on the schedule. So if you want to raid tonight, sign up, and hopefully we can get 2 10 mans running.

Shump has an Obsidan Sanctum on the table for 8, assuming for the raid weekly. Depending on how many people show up I bet people could go rummage through VoA if it's available, or something else.

Saturday, February 6th

ICC (10 or 25). We'll be going into ICC on Saturday, with how many peopel depends on signups. If we have 20+ signups by Friday we'll hit it as a 25 man, or 2 10 mans depending on what we scrape together. Otherwise if Saturday morning we're short of 20, I'll post and we'll make it a 10 man night.

By the same guy who did the Phantom Menace review. It's really awesome particularly in part 2 when he brings in the Garbage Pail kids. Watch from the beginning though...

I totally want to go to Bonnaroo next summer

We thought about going this year, and my wife is kicking herself for not going, because Phish and Bruce Springsteen ( her two favorite musical acts) played together. She was warned off it though because she'd have been 8 months pregnant in the heat of the south. I think this summer maybe we look at going and camping with three kids. Maybe that's even more crazy.

I was gonna put in a video of The Dead peforming Touch of Grey live at Bonaroo from 2003, but meh. Fuck it. Live from 91 with Jerry. And if you're some Nazi who hates the Grateful Dead then I have something you really NEED to smoke.
