Star Wars: Lightsaber Combat Forms

So I got really bored and wrote a Lightsaber Combat Form quiz for Facebook, based on an old Quizilla quiz that was linked on the SW:TOR boards. The questions were based on the quiz, however the answers went more in depth and the forms that actually have two style variants were separated.

Yes...I'm a geek, especially for Star Wars.

WoW: The Bitch of Raid Gearing

So we got 80 on our Alliance mains, which is all well and good but...now comes the painful process of gearing for raids.

I'm stuck with having to for sure gear for two specs - they need me running Disc until we find a good Disc priest to take my place there, while my actual main spec is Shadow, so I need to acquire the gear for that as well.

I've theorycrafted out the best possible sets of gear for a Disc Priest, a Shadow Priest and a Frostfire crit happy Mage. Tony's gear is going to require 6 more Ebonweave cloths while my Shadow set is going to take 10 more, barring I don't get something in Naxx or Arch that is better. And then we're looking at 6 Titansteel, 6 Infinite Dusts and 2 Frozen Orbs for Tony's Spellblade, 4 Titanium, 8 Dragon's Eyes, 8 Eternal Water, 8 Eternal Air and 2 Frozen Orbs for our Titanium Spellshock Rings, on top of another 2 Titanium, 1 Eternal Water and 4 Northsea Pearls for his Ring of Northern Tears.

Lots of mats, and lots of Heroics to be had, though I get the feeling they want to drag us into the Naxx10 on Wednesday even if we're not geared for it. Which would suck, with the level of expectation everyone seems to have of us.

But, no more having to grind out quests to level until the sunrises...just need to grind out quests so that I can make Deathchill cloaks. >.<

E3 Trailers

At first, I was going through and just searching title by title for these, then I just gave up and went through all of G4TV's YouTubes for E3. I'll be adding more commentary to these Soon(tm).














































WoW: Almost There...

Last night, Tony and I got our characters to 78. We're almost 80, and the work to get raid ready will be so much easier than leveling from 1 - 80 has been. We have basic and cold weather flying, so we can get around to finish up the quests in Sholazar, Storm Peaks and Icecrown. Between the quests and the start of our rep grind dailies, we should be able to get the gold for dual specs and whatever materials we need for gearing. Once we're geared, the dailies gold will start going towards getting epic flying, which means having to grind out a bunch of faction in BC so we can get more epic mounts.

We both have largely been able to keep up on our tradeskills. I'm hoping to be able to get enough frostweave and infinite dusts to grind out my tailoring to 440 so that I can make our craftables shit. We unfortunately have to get Loremaster of Northrend ASAP so that I can make our damn Deathchill Cloaks, but Tony isn't too against the idea of doing that many quests. Enchanting isn't a huge rush, considering Dave (the guild leader) already has max enchanting and can cover any enchants that I don't have.

Unforunately, RAWR has been dead since the last patch, so I can't fine tune theorycraft our gear now that we're closer to level cap and raid preparations. I'm waiting impatiently for the developers to update the program so I can get cracking on the last bit of tuning I want to do pre-raid.

So I should be able to start putting more up here soon. I have a couple of MMOs I want to review and a few Facebook games to talk about.
