Warcraft Giant

I feel like an owl

- though mostly in the who-who department. I can't decide what toon to play.
And I'm totally getting bored with the game.

...may wait too long.

Looks like I didn't continue in the track I had in mind. Then again, I haven't tracked anything since the last time I played my hunter.

We now go over to It at the fishing pond!

Ah, fishing. The noble sport of catching nothing all day and not leveling your profession at all unless you park your butt in Orgrimmar all day. Whoo-pee.

But, thank ... something, now you get junk. Junk lets you level. Junk gives skill points! Junk... doesn't sell for much, but screw that. You want junk. Empty Rum Bottle? Check. Weeds? Check. Sick fish? Check. Believing at the fish got sick from drinking and smoking? Doublecheck with cheese.

Finally I'm able to get some fish for recipes, cook up Fish Feasts, and dance on dead gnomes. Ok, so I could do the last thing all along, but it's more fun when you beat them to death with a fishing pole, amirite?

He who waits..

..will be rewarded.

With 3.2 approaching fast - or slow, you never know with Blizzard - I have to read the patch notes. And these over at WoW.com had me hooked;

New Dungeon Loot Feature

Players will now be able to trade soulbound items with other raid or group members that were eligible for the loot. This system will work like the Item Buy Back system and allow 2 hours for players to trade an item after it has been looted. Players who choose to enchant or add gems to the item will get one last confirmation before losing the ability to trade the item.

This is simply amazing. Think about it! How many times have you been chumped out of a piece of gear due to a loot master going "Ooops! Gave it to the wrong guy, sorry!"? With this it can be corrected immediately, given that whoever got the item doesn't get 'internet problems' - won't be a first, I'm sure.

Bada bing, bada boom! And there you have it. No more having to wait all those hours to have a GM transfer it. No more of being told that they will only do this for you once. It's fixed! Solved! Sweet Einstein of Solutions, you make me feel like I won the Nobel Prize.

Patch 3.2.
So much information. I'm not sure if I'll like the patch or not. Built in QuestHelper? Come on! If I wanted easy, I'd launch Hello Kitty Pubic Adventures*.

One thing I do love about the coming patch, are the changes to mounts. 1 gold for normal mounts, and 10 for epics? I might just be able to afford getting the 100 mounts achievement. Even the level changes are enjoyable. Ride in style at level 20, and go all out at 40. My alts could actually get some playtime.

Now hurry up and give it to me. I want that dragonhawk before I get back to work.

Get in there, and get venting

The world is amiss, there's something not right
The PuG wants my achievement from the Naxxramas fight.
I sit there explanin' that's the reason I'm here
I'm pugging Naxx to get it, understand me, ya hear?

They taunt my lack of 10-points, they taunt me 'cause they fear.
That even with my cookie-spec, and i two hunnerd gear.
I'll beat them with my skills, and it causes them to itch;
"No achievement, no invite, now get lost, bitch!"

Now my plea to you is to throw me a bone;
I'm stuck pugging HCs while I'm home alone.
Test my lack of tenners, look, I won't even Greed;
Once is enough, that's all I need!
