I’m Trapped and Have Moved Out of Gitr’s House

May 17, 2007 By Gitr 5 Comments

I am [tag]Perfectly Petersen[/tag], and there’s nothing you can do about it.

For months now, I’ve been adding a little somethingsomething here and there about what is going on in real life, and it’s got me torn. I’ve realized that people coming here through directories and search engines are looking for WoW content, not Jesse content.

Conversely, I’ve written some dang good content (if I do say so myself) that non-gamers don’t want to come here to read. They read the article, see a bunch of crap about stuff they don’t understand because it’s all game-speak, and they never come back.

I’ve had it! I’m moving. I set up a new blog for personal stuff. It’s all about me, what I like, what ticks me off, what I’m doing to improve myself as a student, husband, employee, and blogger. It’s about being a geek and being spitefully proud of it. When you go there, you are looking at something that is Perfectly Petersen.

I told a co-worker today what my site was, and she thought I was saying I’m perfect. No…that would be Perfect Petersen. The blog is a complete match and completely illustrates who I am as a person, writer, and total whacko. It is to say that one’s shirt is perfectly so-and-so. This blog is a representation of me, and by reading it you will know me and what makes me tick.

She said that is just messing with words and that I’m nuts. The name has come full circle right back to me. It is Perfectly Petersen.

Joana’s Horde Guide New: Outlands 60-70 Step by Step

May 17, 2007 By Gitr 3 Comments

I just logged into Joana’s Horde Leveling Guide to see what his time to level 33 was and found a new link! He originally had an overview reference for Outlands, but it wasn’t his optimized path or anything uber-fast yet.

Now he has put it all in order and it’s built for speed. Get all of your 60s collecting dust to level 70 now. This update, and all new additions he will make are included in your original purchase. It was like a stocking stuffer in May. 🙂

Ding 33; Desolace is a PITA

May 17, 2007 By Gitr 4 Comments

Huntr spent about 2 hours in Desolace in the water last night checking traps, killing crabs, killing naga, and coming up for air. This would be so much easier as Forsaken. I managed to kill a 37 last night and a 38 this morning to complete two quests.

Joana’s Horde Leveling Guide has been a HUGE help in Desolace. It led me to every quest-giver, turn-in, and mob area for each quest flawlessly. It doesn’t get any more helpful than having your path drawn on a map, coordinates for the givers/turn-ins/areas, and outlines for where the mobs are located for collection/kill quests. If you need to, you have 3 helper options: you can click the quest name, and it sends you to one of the Big 3 database sites for that quest, you can watch his video of killing a specific boss/mob for a quest, or you can skip to that part of his video for that segment of playing (he recorded all 60 levels, sped 6-10x for the boring stuff).

My /played time is updated in my Journey to 70 page, but here it is anyway: 1d 19h 29m.

I’m a couple of steps away from hearthing back to Shadowprey Village to do a massive turn-in of 8 more completed quests. I am 2 clam meats away from being done with a quest that I forgot to wrap up before I came out of the water. They are way up the coast from the SV, so I think I’ll hearth back after playing Paladr after I gather the last of the meat.

I logged into Bankr to buy Huntr some new gear because it’s going to be a long time before he goes back to Orgrimmar or TB on a mission, and he’s carrying around some pretty dated gear. The profiles are all updated now, too.

New Patch 2.1.0 Trailer – Black Temple

May 15, 2007 By Gitr 2 Comments

Blizzard released a trailer previewing the [tag]Black Temple[/tag] and how it plays a role in the [tag]World of Warcraft[/tag]. It was a temple of peace, like any temple, until the [tag]Burning Legion[/tag] came. [tag]Illidan[/tag] had the help of the Blood Elves and the Naga in closing the portal and taking back their land. Now it’s time to take back the temple from Illidan himself.

Here are some screenshots from the trailer taken from the homepage of WorldofWarcraft.com.

American Idol Predictions: Final 3

May 15, 2007 By Gitr Leave a Comment

Tonight’s pre-show prediction:

Jordin says bye-bye tomorrow night. She’s cute as a bug and can sing like a diva, but then there’s Melinda…

I think Blake has a ton of guys behind his votes, so when it comes down to the women voting Melinda or Jordin, Melinda stays.

Very Busy in RL

May 15, 2007 By Gitr 1 Comment

Sorry about the lack of updates today. I’ve been busy tweaking my new project. I’ll unveil it tonight or tomorrow if you haven’t found it already. I learned a lot at SOBCon and started putting things into motion right away, as Mindkiller noted the title change.

I played Huntr last night and this morning. Due to coming in early two days in a row, I didn’t get the grinding time necessary to complete the centaur rep quest in Desolace, so I’m still Neutral, working my way to Friendly. Until that happens, that’s what I’m doing and there is no need to update nothing. 🙂

I have some stuff to do on the computer tonight non-WoW-related, so that will keep me busy before, if not after, American Idol.
