| |
Tonight, with the release of the two new realms, myself and Caydiem (in her Fangtooth disguise) decided that it would be fun to create characters on Kelecgos in an attempt to organize a raid against Maggot Eye, the undead Gnoll. Unfortunately, finding players who were interested (and believed that I was really Eyonix) was quite a challenge. However, there were a number of brave adventurers that felt up to the task.
I present to you the images of our exploits.
Here we encounter our first monster. I was pretty scared and stayed far away at first, but with the help of those I partied with...

we pulled through to victory.

We were pretty excited when this dropped. We nearly had to remove someone from the raid for an argument that this caused.

Here I am leading my new friends to an unfamiliar place. One of us leveled upon discovering Brill! Congrats!!!

Trouble at every step, but still we pull together

Here we face Maggot Eye! I wish I had my Imp, or at least an earthshock...

We've defeated a great evil this day and stand proud in victory! Remember, these are the players to be wary of when facing them on the battlefield in the months to come.

We quickly hearth a way before the respawn...

This post is in memory of Factor, who died so that we may live. We loved you so much Factor, and thank you for your contribution. Maggot Eye is no more...unless you count the infinite respawn factor.

We had a good time of it. Alas, my name is in the name filter, so no Caydiem meanderings for me. I had to steal Fangtooth's skin. ;)

Q u o t e: Did you guys keep your characters on that server? i want to play with a CM... :_(, also when did you guys talk about forming a raid???
Sadly, we won't be logging into these characters again. This was something very spur of the moment which I thought up shortly after announcing the release of the two new realms.
Q u o t e: Cool beans but...
man, glad you guys got your priorities straight...
There is at least one comment such as this in every thread detailing something we've done, regardless of what area of being community building it fulfils. The fact is, this was done in my off time, and I DO in-fact make it a priority to have fun in the game, and include as many others as I can when I login to the game.
This was a sincerely great time, and I wish more could've been present.
Q u o t e: Oh look! Blizzard employees playing Undead Horde. Who'da thunk it?
P.S.: Where are your Undead Shamans?
It always amuses me that one month, we see the same comments about how much we all play and favor alliance. I can never keep up with which faction we're supposed to LOVE with everything in our being. :p
Q u o t e: first thing i noticed was "chode"
www.urbandictionary.com
wow im ashamed of you CMs for allowing such a thing and partying with them. BURN THE TERMS OF AGGREEMENT
I'm not a GM, nor am I in charge of policing names. If one offends me, I will report it. This name did not, and to be honest I was happy to have him in my raid - great Mage! In any case, if you're upset by this particular name, please feel free to handle the issue as you would when seeing any other inappropriate name in World of Warcraft.
Q u o t e: Hunters can't roll on Malachite. I'll bet that is what caused so many problems. I hate hunters.
Agreed. Hunters have no place rolling on Malachite, and while there were no Hunters in the raid, one amongst our ranks was clearly attempting to roll on the item to pass it along to his unborn Hunter-alt.

Q u o t e: Further proof that Blizz all play Horde. Play your Pally, Fang. So we can get some !&$%ing fixes. /spit Respect.
If you read, Fangtooth wasn't actually in this raid. I was, using Fangtooth's name. I suggest you treat everyone on this board -- blue and otherwise -- with respect; failure to do so will result in action taken.[ post edited by Caydiem ]

Q u o t e: So while everyone needs your attention, your off playing the game and forming newb raids, awesome.
People need our attention at 1AM when we're off the clock? Perhaps, yes, but during that time we can't exactly phone up the developers and ask them your burning questions without finding said communication device plugging up an orifice uncomfortably.
It was a fun little community event that didn't take much time after we'd both worked a full day.
