Altism Must Be Related to ADD

April 27, 2007 By Gitr 10 Comments

I don’t have Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), and I never have. I’ve never been on medication for my attentiveness, yet I find myself participating in something that looks like the biggest case of ADD in history. I have approximately 20 toons over level 15, scattered on various realms and play-types. I am really beginning to appreciate Kinless’ definition of Altism on his blog:

Altism, defined.

Main Entry: alt·ism
Pronunciation: \alt,i-zem\
Function: noun
Date: 2007

: a variable gaming condition that appears by character number five and is characterized by impairment of the ability to reach higher levels, an impairment in joining end-game content, failure to maintain normal levels of reputation and faction gain, and by an inability to be forced into stereotyped playing patterns. < “Dude, l2lvl.” “Can’t. I’ve got altism.”>

Ding 25; Crushing Frostr’s Pace

April 27, 2007 By Gitr 19 Comments

I would have to log into Frostr to see what his level 25 /played time was, but Huntr got to level 25 in under a day. 23h 56m to be exact. I would also say that was still a far from perfect run to 25. I have died at least 15 times, trained unnecessarily, and not completed some group quests. I expect that my pace will get a tad better as I earn more gold on the AH to fund better gear and such. It’s high time to create a personal bank alt, as using Butterbanker would be downright wrong. 🙂

I am a bit off-pace with Joana’s Horde guide because I now have to grind 60% to get to where it says I need to be. I will likely be going to [tag]Thunder Bluff[/tag] tonight to train Guns and Staffs when I turn in a quest and accept a couple more, including the always fun, [tag]Steelsnap[/tag]. Still, being off-pace, I am able to grind at a blinding pace, with [tag]FuExperience[/tag] saying that I will ding in about an hour more at my current rate. That shows how poorly I played a couple of days ago, taking 3 hours to level. [Read more…] about Ding 25; Crushing Frostr’s Pace

Dilbert Takes a Poke at Blogging

April 26, 2007 By Gitr 12 Comments

[tag]Scott Adams[/tag] has done a fine job with the [tag]Dilbert blog[/tag], but this is the first time I can recall a blog entering into the actual strip. Here is today’s comic:

Ding 24

April 26, 2007 By Gitr 1 Comment

It was a long night of logging in and out of Huntr in Org to get the charter signed and touching up my new UI. I was going back and forth between [tag]Huntr[/tag] and Butterbanker to minimize my downtime with Huntr to keep things as accurate as possible for his leveling tracking. We need 3 more signatures for the guild, but I was too tired this morning to get up early and play.

[tag]Charred Vale[/tag] was another huge pain in the butt, but not as much as it was with Frostr. I’m supposed to grind to within 3 bars of 25 now, and I sure wasn’t going to stay there to do it. The graveyard is about 1/2 mile away. One graveyard for [tag]Stonetalon Peak[/tag] is utterly ridiculous, especially since the GY is nowhere near any dangerous mobs. If you die from the spiders near the GY, then you suck or you weren’t paying attention at all. Bottom line.

I’ve got a couple of quests I can finish up there that aren’t a part of the guide, otherwise/afterward, I think I will grind Quillboars in [tag]The Barrens[/tag] or the miners and others around Bael Modan. I really need to get my [tag]Herbalism[/tag] up over 70 to continue picking flowers where I will be headed. I keep finding flowers that are showing up as red to me, and that’s just plain unacceptable. 🙂

I just changed the header for the [tag]forums[/tag] to include keywords and other bot [tag]META data[/tag] because it hasn’t gotten a single hit from searches. 🙁
