14 Mar 2005 - Why grandma, what big phat loot you have...

Print On a more personal note, I've been watching the Roswell series lately. I know I know, old stuff. But I never got a chance to watch it, and when I saw the first 5 minutes I was forever drawn to it. The show is not as “hardcore” as Star Trek for example, but it has got some sci-fi elements, and it's worm - a show with a heart - one of the aspects few to none have. I find TV shows in general today tend to be a lot more commercial and in lower numbers.
And now, back to WoW, life, and punches. It was a calm week, I only did Black Morass like 50 times more to help others get attuned for Karazan. People need to learn to respec geesh. At least for this instance, if it's not working.
We did quite good in Karazan, and managed to get to the fourth boss. It's hilarious to see Warlocks die for once from undead elites, because they hit for ~18k, and Mages surviving because of invisibility. Later on, some big skelies that come in packs of two have an interesting thing: they switch aggro every 30 seconds between them, and they put the first person on the aggro list in an ice cube from time to time. Warriors have to play good and use spell reflect wisely. All in all, a challenging fight. At the third boss, you get to a theater stage where a classic play is on, with you starring in it. The play can be one of the following: Wizard of Oz, Little Red Riding Hood and Romulo and Julianne.
As you may have guessed already from the title, the play we were in was
Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf
Karazan seems a fun instance as a whole. We had a really good time running around as Little Red Riding Hood with the Big Bad Wolf chasing you every 30 seconds for the duration of this boss fight. Mages and Hunters seem to react faster when they are changed into Little Red, for obvious reasons, but for priests it's a disaster as the have to react very fast. The fact that the targets are randomly picked doesn't help either - a dwarf priest was picked for 5 times in a row...
“No, I don't want to see your puppies, I want a shag damn it!” - Serafina, our beloved Guild Master asked me for a translation for this in Romanian, since we got several Romanians in the guild (friends of mine). I don't know, I guess if you want to be cool and learn to swear in Romanian, you can always ask me, that's what they pay me for... (hmmmm).
Arena Update
It was an interesting week in Arena, I got invited in a 5vs5 team. It was a pick up, so no tactics and no teamspeak. We won two matches out of 10. Then everyone decided to leave the team hahaha. The priest kept yelling “Protect me! Protect me!”, and claimed that he can take everyone down if he is well protected... He made me say “Hey, if I don't die, I can kill them too! Can't we all?”. It was funny at least.
2vs2 wise, me and Lucianus did good considering we are both more PvE specced (him holy, me fire), we won more matches than we lost; we are starting to play better - a bit. I still think they should give you at least 1 point for a won match, to encourage you to play more than 10 per week. I'd even say give 1 arena point for a loss and 3 for a win, plus the bonus for the ranking. But hey, that's just my opinion.
I am closing this, Sony sent us a new pack of games today and they are here now. Keep your fingers crossed! Laters!

| Machinarium November 3, 2009 Through streams of repetitive and boring products stretched all over the year, if you search enough, you will find small 'artifacts' which can be used to define the video games as a form of modern art.

Tropico 3 is much more than a casual city simulator, adding an exciting political layer on an otherwise excellent strategy game. Amazing graphics and alluring sound effects sugarcoat a demanding gameplay, that has enough depth to make it the best choice for players who can appreciate a top quality title.

some of those elements were used. And unfortunately, I find myself amongst
them.
