Hey, sorry I haven't been posting a diligently as I should, I have had a very hectic few days in the real world and neglected my soap box here!
I have been celebrating the life of an incredible guy Isambard Kingdom Brunel who was as far as I can see one of the most versatile and audacious engineers of the 19th Century! There was a very large concert put on in his honour in a hall under one of his more famous bridges, to which I was begged to stand in on and play the Clarinet for with only a days notice! Not something I would normally do, as I like to have seen the music before hand and to have heard it before playing it... But no, the normal Clarinettist for such functions had to pull out due to ill health so it was Zoe to the rescue! It was a crazy day, I had to wear a Victorian dress and Bonnet for a start, I feel so sorry for those ladies back then... You can hardly breathe in these things, let alone completely fill your lungs to play a wind instrument! I much prefer my skirt and shirt combination which is my normal attire for events like these!
And back to my life on the internets!
I think from last time I blogged, we have tried several things. Failed in getting 25mans set up and going again due to lack of healers... We did a new boss in 10man Ulduar though, Freya: Interesting fight, having to run under mushrooms and run away from trees!
We have had alot of drama in the guild this week it seems, of people slacking so much it upsets other people and people getting strong handed into doing things they don't want to do eg give up spots or healing. Also we are facing losing a bunch of lovely players due to what they see as being a very unorganised guild. I can see their point, as we have around 17 people who are lovely, they want to raid, always prepared and are most of the time reliable. Thing is thats 7 too many for a 10man... and 8 too few for the 25! I am in the process of sorting it out with Valrok at the moment what we can do about this, as we seem to lack the healers and tanks for two groups, not because we don't have them but they dont always turn up for raids :S
Not sure how he plans to solve this yet, as I would really like to clear the rest of Ulduar (obviously) but I don't want to take all the limelight and raid every single raid going... It would be nice just to play sometimes, although I do Love raiding :D
Sunday the new re-vamped Noblegarden world event started!!!
Such a relatively simple event, gather eggs, eat chocolate and make your bunnies hump other bunnies!
Getting the drops from eggs is slightly annoying, just because there is 50 other players farming/camping the eggs too and 9 times out of 10 you get chocolate or an item of clothing you already have! Then the fun part of trying to find a female of each race and put bunny ears on them.....
I discovered I couldn't tell the difference between male and female dwarfs!!! THe only difference it turns out, is the males have beards generally, and the females are slightly more curvaceous!! And I think there are 2 at level 80 on this server :S
But I did it in the end, even went for a run around all the ally places where they would be gathering eggs, but we didnt think it through as most people were transformed into little pink bunnies; this meant I had no way of seeing if they were male or female!!!!! Ran around IF and SW too (Finally found where the Stockades are and did them for the classic dungeonmaster achievement too) but only found draenie and humans! SO back to Dalaren and found one sitting at the fp.....
So I am now Pyrrus the Noble!!
Now back to repeating it all on Gorbie xD I have been luckier with drops so far, only need the dress and shirt now. I will post you a picture of Gorbie in his finest Noblegarden clothes when I have completed it for him too.
Thinking about playing on Gorbie... It seems I do not like enhancement shamans even at max level and with lovely gear.... It just doesnt suit my playing style at all :( but it is useful me having an enchanter i can duel log and make myself stuff rather than waiting for people to come online! Hmm, maybe I should just learn to be patient instead !!!
There we go, a fast update for now! I promise I will upload pics and videos when I have time, but for now I should be working on writing my dissertation (Major research project) as I only have two weeks left until it has to be handed in :(
So ta-taa for now xx
