American Idol Is Crack on TV

February 28, 2007 By Gitr 16 Comments

That’s become one of my sayings lately. I have never watched an entire season of American Idol before. I’ve seen the beginning a couple of times, the middle once or twice, and the final 4-6 probably 3 times. I’ve seen every minute of the show this year and I’m loving it. I’m still enthralled with the “making a success” idea and it’s cool to see these people becoming successful. No matter what happens at this point, none of their lives will be the same after this because they have had way over 15 minutes of fame.

I REALLY liked the gas station attendant and Sundance Head from the try-outs and was supremely pissed that they had to face off together as the 12th man at the end of Hollywood week. To make matters worse, I didn’t think Sundance did well after his initial audition, either, so seeing the gas guy go was bothering me.

Until last night. [Read more…] about American Idol Is Crack on TV

Buttered Monkeys Is Up To 12 Members

Our current roster is up to 12 members now, with Lance still looking to join whenever we can catch him online. Tomas is working on getting us a channel on his main’s Vent server, but he has to get permission from the other guildies because they all split the cost. Our guild forums are up and running smoothly with no spam or glitches that I’m aware of.

Ding 22; Making Neatherweave Bags for the Guild

February 27, 2007 By Gitr 5 Comments

I dinged 22 before jumping back on Deadr to craft more bags for my guildies. I moved over to The Barrens because of all the camping 60-70s at Tarren Mill. Can anyone within the sound of my voice explain to me how killing level 21s of the other faction in their lowbie zones can possibly be a fun way to spend the evening? It’s beyond me. No challenge, no loot, no rep, no honor. I’ll say it here as plainly as I can…IDIOTS camp lowbie zones. Not just one person, either. It was about a dozen of them wearing MC/BWL gear.

Exalted With Tranquillien

February 27, 2007 By Gitr 9 Comments

I turned in one more quest this morning to get Exalted and still had one more quest to turn in for Deathholme. I got that one done and still need to slay Kel’Gash the troll. So it is possible to reach Exalted without finishing all of the quests in the zone.

I also saw the funniest name I have seen in ages last night before logging for bed. It was an undead rogue named Tpyo, and that’s no typo…

Ding 21; Took down Dar’Khan Undermanned

February 26, 2007 By Gitr 6 Comments

I got on tonight with Mindkiller and his wife, Snowstormer. They are both 17s as a rogue and mage, respectively. We took Deatholme by storm and took out Dar’Khan after several bad respawns. I learned a lot about pulling as a hunter in groups and they were quite patient with my mistakes that killed us 4 times. 🙂

I got the Farstrider’s Longbow and dinged when I turned in the quest. I noticed that I have 500 rep to go for exalted with Tranquillien, so I’m off to see if I can get the rest.

Catch Phrase of the Day: OOR- Out of Room

February 26, 2007 By Gitr 18 Comments

Oh, the decisions…what do I vendor trash? I have run out of room with Bloodr already. I am left with 3 options:

Buy more bank slots
Craft big bags with Deadr and send them over
Vendor trash more than I want to

Being a hunter with the loss of a bag because of my quiver isn’t helping matters, and it’s got me a bit bummed when I’m questing and grinding and having to continually cook stuff and toss things that I could sell when I got back to an NPC.

Are you out of room on your toons?
