Lich King 9% wipe!

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

As you know, my new guild only does 25 man runs three days each week, and tonight we stepped in for our second full night on Lich King. Two hours in, and we had him down to 9%, but we wiped for unknown reasons.

We were so disheartened that we simply released and ended the raid.

How to be awesome

Saturday, December 5th, 2009

I consider myself a pretty good player. I would actually go as far as to say that I am a damn good addition to any group. And this is no idle boast! I have certain standards, some requirements, that I set for myself, and I project those on to others aswell. In my world, its “If I can do it, then so can you”.

I never like to be the underdog in a group, whether its in World of Warcraft or at work, during sporting events and so on. It’s not that I am competitive by nature (I am), but more the fact that I don’t like to be seen the guy that was pulling people down. In World of Warcraft, gear is only a part of how you contribute to a raid. Whats much more important is the character you bring.

We spend anywhere from 4 hours to over 20 hours doing raids every single week. But you are not just spending 20 hours of your time – you are also spending other peoples time. the rest of the group, be it a 5 man PUG or a 25 man raid, there are people that has taken the time to play with you, and it is our responsibility to do our best to let everybody get most out of that time.

I don’t want to come across as “acting pro”, but it is very important to me, that I do my best – for my own sake, and for others. I have jolted down some principles, rules of play, if you will, that I try to follow, in the pursuit of being a good player.
