Podcast outage and update

Posted in Offtopic, tagged , , , , on February 1, 2012 | 6 Comments »

Hey folks, sometime recently, our FTP server stopped working. It was bound to happen eventually, but I suspect our hosting provider simply turned us off. We were doing 50GB a day of FTP traffic on a virtual private server, and I think that’s the definition of a “bad neighbor”. We toyed briefly with an account [...]

Transmogrification!

Posted in Offtopic, pvp, World of Warcraft, tagged , on August 17, 2011 | 13 Comments »

First thing I’m going to do with this is transmogrify all my PvP gear to look really dumb. Trying to decide whether I should go for BC-leveling-greens-clown-suit, or classic old season gear. Maybe I’ll use a stealth pet and wear shammie mail! Should make basing a kill priority decision much harder :)

Off topic and unshaven

Posted in Offtopic, tagged , on May 27, 2011 | 22 Comments »

My wife and I just brought our new baby home after what must be some sort of record short hospital stay. He’s something like 42 hours old right now, and we’ve been home since before lunch. Everyone is doing really well, and the new addition doesn’t seem to be bothering the toddler much (yet). I [...]

That bastard!

Posted in Hunter, Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged , , , on April 1, 2011 | 10 Comments »

I had to find out by his announcement post. Well, Frost, you can ditch the Hunting Party Podcast if you want, but you’re still on contract as the poet laureate for OutDPS until July 2012. We’ll be better off without him, folks. We’ll just get someone else to come on and chain heroics and yell [...]

Not even wrapped.

Posted in Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged , , , on July 23, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

After we got our guild first RS 25 last night, I had to log off immediately after loot. So my brother in law co-GM thought it would be funny to tell people to send me random crap in game for my birthday. It’s not even all crap! Notice the Shatter Rounds in there? What really [...]

Rejection, Leadership, and Drama!

Posted in Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged , , , , on July 21, 2010 | 4 Comments »

My birthday present to myself this year is a meatspace job upgrade. My internet job is, of course, going as awesomely as ever, however I just finished submitting my resignation to my old firm, and had a few thoughts about the parallels between this and WoW. When you play WoW, there will be times when [...]

New official forums without RealID!

Read it yourself. Now I’d like to take a moment to remind you about how awesome the rest of the announced changes are! Players will have the ability to rate up or rate down posts so that great topics and replies stand out from the not-so-great; low-rated posts will appear dimmer to show that the [...]

RealID Coming to Forums!

Well this is interesting. Blizzard just posted that they’re planning on redoing the forums to show our real names. They will not be adding your real name to existing forum posts, however if you choose to display your character under your new profile, people will probably be able to go and look up everything you’ve [...]

I don’t normally do this, but I’m going to talk a little bit about what I’ve been up to in game. Darkbrew and I have started a guild, and it’s going amazingly! We got the LK down on 10 man normal last week, and last night, we roflstomped our way through the first two hard [...]

Darkbrew’s Lament

Posted in Hunter, Offtopic, World of Warcraft, tagged , , , on June 2, 2010 | 4 Comments »

Oh my- Arth has written my new favorite poem: Darkbrew’s Folly! The sun does not shine, though it was once mine Before I sold Deathbringer’s Will The streets all seem grey, I lost to a mage in the raid Because I sold Deathbringer’s Will The pain, it is wracking, Euripides is cackling Because I sold [...]

Tune in at 6:00 PM EST for the live show! He’s still under NDA, so we’ll probably be discussing [...]
