Maybe it would’ve been more fitting to start this diary tomorrow - Wrath of the Lich King and all. But I decided to move my WoW-blog here, since readers of my regular blog couldn’t care less about it, and today I am sad and feel like moaning.

A couple of months ago, we were a happy guild which had managed, despite being halfway between social and hardcore, to get into Black Temple and kill a couple of bosses. Now, since Kael was so difficult, we skipped him and left him for later - the idea being we’d come back just before Wrath to finish him off and get the title for every one.

Then guild drama ensued (I’m saving the bitter comments on backstabbers and the like), and after Kael finally died (on a run I couldn’t join) the guild tore apart, with most of the core raiders creating a new one.

Where did this leave Jen? On holiday, without the title and bewildered when she came back to find the place in pieces. I was pissed off (I still am, when I think about it), but I got over the social bit. No one’s forcing anyone to stay and if you feel another guild would be better for you, all right.

A lot of laughing follows because our MT is the best player of our guild and we don’t skip out an opportunity to tease him about this failure.

Second try everyone is in position with hands far, far away from the keyboard until the fabled Anarya receives a whisper from someone and decides to answer back. Read the rest of this entry »
