Maintenance1206

It's Tuesday-full maintenance day! Fully expected this to be after all the rolling restarts and hotfixes this past week.


Let's do a little round-up this morning.

I recently read an informative and entertaining post about pocket lint over at Tomb of the Ancient. Go have a read if you already haven't, good stuff.

More about IntPiPoMo: A little earlier this week I was treated to a final installment of this challenge over at Bag Overflow. A totally awesome video was offered up to assist in completing the challenge, which imho, is well deserving and a must see! Grats to Bag Overflow for such a fantastic and unique ending to their IntPiPoMo participation.

Okay, a small personal thought here. Today, as I was going through my reader, I came across another long time blogger I've been reading for I can't remember how long. The post was about stepping back now to favor and give more attention to real life. This is a good thing for this blogger, or any blogger who makes this choice. I'm sure everyone commends and supports, "family/real life, comes first."

I now return you to killing those internet dragons, and other such stuff. :)

Ending this morning's round-up on another happy note, let me ask you, "Who else can talk about having so much !#%& fun in game with such a unique and straight-forward style, as Big Bear Butt delivers? Maybe a few, idk. But I always enjoy reading BBB.

That's it for this mornings little round-up. Time for me to go work through some thoughts over Aygaren, that wanna-be-a-tank Tauren pally. Enjoy your game! ~Sol

*yes, I posted a little early as well, lol

Where to go - What to Do?

Ahhhh! Another Saturday morning. The usual thoughts are swirling around those floating fragments of my mind, much like those floating rocks in Netherstorm Khrox keeps reminding me of. He has a couple of dailys in his list that keep him visiting the nether reaches, plus his on-going hunt for some rare chimera. Sol just leans back in his comfy chair and shrugs off the innocent travels of his kids. At times, it certainly seems like they have no concerns over the conditions of Azeroth these days.


As he sips his morning coffee and settles a bit deeper into his chair, a knowing "hrummpph" becomes audible. Those kids are in for a rude awakening when the full force of the Cataclysm rears it's life-altering head. Regaining his original thoughts, he wonders about where to go and what to do in Azeroth today.

The world has been buzzing for a few days now over the dungeon finder changes the game gods have tossed out recently. Sol's second spec happens to be centered around tanking bear, although he hasn't really developed that side of himself to any extent. Is it really worth all the efforts and work to do so? Is the dungeon group finder really any better than the times of Wrath? And as the Azeroth community at large goes, well, according to BBB, the offerings (bribes) of the game gods just don't cut it. And then there's Lodur over at World of Matticus speculating about this Call to Arms: Dungeon Finder.

Such is life these days in Azeroth. Sol has been comtemplating his standing in Azeroth of late. Well, actually a couple of months now. Just can't make up his mind what to do. Vidyala, (Manalicious), has tossed another log into the fire of his thoughts though with this interesting and colorful post: "Who's the Boss?" *colorful*, as in Screenies! Rounding out this morning's wake-up coffee, someone new in Sol's magical travels of mind reminds him that there seems to be a bit of RP'er in everyone. Admitted or not. Akabeko, over at Red Cow Rise shares thoughts about his alts knowing each other.

Well, the coffee mug is empty and Sol thinks it's about time for a refill as he works his way towards the Azeroth portal.

Enjoy your journeys today!
