      <title>Ain't no thing, but a Chkn Ming</title>
      <description>For a long time I've shied away from any topic related to Ming.&amp;nbsp; I've stopped reading&amp;nbsp;Ming's blog altogether.&amp;nbsp; My feelings are, any traffic that I would personally bring to game riot would only help his cause.&amp;nbsp; Helping Ming's cause is not something I particularly&amp;nbsp;want to be responsible for.&amp;nbsp; Although I know this will only bring more traffic to the sess pool of filth that&amp;nbsp;makes up the majority of&amp;nbsp;gameriot, this was too good to ignore.&amp;nbsp; In enters Shaunconnery.&amp;nbsp; Shaunconnery, a long time native of Tichondrius has created many works of art related to WoW, but this could be his master piece.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're not familiar with Terry "Boogers" White aka Ming (pictured below, LOL) here are some of&amp;nbsp;his blogs:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img class="resize" src="http://files.dmusic.com/music/m/c/mcryuu/t-MINGNGNGGN.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="/blogs/World-of-Ming/Mings-BC-Beta-Journal-17-Ming-vs-Nitrana-Yao-vs-Amare/" class="content" &gt;http://www.gameriot.com/blogs/World-of-Ming/Mings-BC-Beta-Journal-17-Ming-vs-Nitrana-Yao-vs-Amare/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="/blogs/World-of-Ming/Ming-to-Remain-in-Shanghai/" class="content" &gt;http://www.gameriot.com/blogs/World-of-Ming/Ming-to-Remain-in-Shanghai/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="/blogs/World-of-Ming/True-Love-In-Azeroth/" class="content" &gt;http://www.gameriot.com/blogs/World-of-Ming/True-Love-In-Azeroth/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pay special attention to the the last blog entitled "True Love in Azeroth".&amp;nbsp; It heavily influences the introduction of the song.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've never liked Ming.&amp;nbsp; He's unjustifiably pompous and arrogant.&amp;nbsp; He claims his earnings are much higher than they are in reality (&lt;a href="http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=4311056203&amp;amp;postId=43106403404&amp;amp;sid=1#21" class="content" &gt;http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=4311056203&amp;amp;postId=43106403404&amp;amp;sid=1#21&lt;/a&gt;).&amp;nbsp; He's been bashing on&amp;nbsp;me for a long time now.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Since WSG days in fact&amp;nbsp&lt;img class="resize" src="http://gza.gameriot.com/http://gza.gameriot.com/core/default//smiley_cry.gif" alt=";(" style="verical-align:-3px;padding-left:2px;" border="0" width="15" height="15" /&gt;&lt;a href="http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=34775844&amp;amp;postId=347828671&amp;amp;sid=1#0" class="content" &gt;http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=34775844&amp;amp;postId=347828671&amp;amp;sid=1#0&lt;/a&gt;).&amp;nbsp; Ming is the kid in your class that does anything to get attention.&amp;nbsp; He's the kid that will dig up an earthworm and gobble it up, just so he can sit near you at Lunch.&amp;nbsp; He's the kid no one has the heart to tell him no one likes him.&amp;nbsp; But, unlike the poor pathetic kid, no one feels sorry for Ming.&amp;nbsp; He brings it on himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay, no more delaying.&amp;nbsp; Without further interruption, Shaunconnery presents Ain't no thing but a Chikn Ming: &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/shaunconnery" class="content" &gt;http://www.myspace.com/shaunconnery&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"So I&amp;rsquo;m reading this online blog, world of ming dot com/&lt;br /&gt;****&amp;rsquo;s got me so pissed, I finna go and drop bombs/&lt;br /&gt;You&amp;rsquo;ll get ****in&amp;rsquo; smashed by weapons and plate/&lt;br /&gt;For every second it takes for you to mention Naruto in every reference you make/&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;rsquo;d lay off the Ninjitsu, and off of the Ninja Stars/&lt;br /&gt;Cuz I&amp;rsquo;d use Sharingan to see you for the ***** you are/ &lt;br /&gt;And I got a fact that&amp;rsquo;ll make this ***** girl hide/&lt;br /&gt;You&amp;rsquo;re ranked zero, while Nitrana is Ranked 1 World wide?&lt;br /&gt;Need I repeat that?

      <title>Nitlo, the short lived</title>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;&#13;
&amp;quot;Nitrana are you still angry that you aren't on the starting 5's team? &lt;img class="resize" src="http://gza.gameriot.com/http://gza.gameriot.com/core/default//smiley_sad.gif" alt=":(" style="verical-align:-3px;padding-left:2px;" border="0" width="15" height="15" /&gt;&amp;quot; &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
Although referencing no point in my entry, my first comment to my first blog entry, ever. &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
I get this question a lot, it's about time I gave it a full answer.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
Am I angry?&amp;nbsp; Not so much.&amp;nbsp; &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
Am I bitter?&amp;nbsp; That's probably more like it.&amp;nbsp; &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
I don't think anyone in my situation would NOT&amp;nbsp;be bitter.&amp;nbsp; I truly believe I'm the best rogue that plays World of Warcraft at this moment.&amp;nbsp; For one to openly admit he believes he's the best, would often be mistaken for arrogance.&amp;nbsp; In this case, I believe it as confidence.&amp;nbsp;For a lot of people, this statement is a hard pill to swallow, but&amp;nbsp;throughout my history of playing this game I've had this belief.&amp;nbsp; Proving time, and time again, that this claim is well supported;&amp;nbsp;it naturally&amp;nbsp;built confidence into my play.&amp;nbsp; In fact, I was so swelling with confidence; I felt I could take on a second class.&amp;nbsp; Little did I know,&amp;nbsp;I was doomed from the start. &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
When I first made Nitlo, it was almost a&amp;nbsp;joke.&amp;nbsp; I was so fed up with&amp;nbsp;Rogue (At the time the only form of&amp;nbsp;serious competition was strictly 5v5), I would've done anything to&amp;nbsp;satisfy my lust for competition.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; That &amp;quot;anything&amp;quot; for me was giving up my Rogue for a Shaman.&amp;nbsp; At that point in the game, I wasn't into any sort of PvE on my Rogue, and recently opted for the bench&amp;nbsp;route on&amp;nbsp;Power Trip in the best interest of the team. &amp;nbsp;I simply&amp;nbsp;had nothing else to do.&amp;nbsp; It began innocently enough, Noktyn was&amp;nbsp;a quick support explaining to me Uroo's reroll success story of Rogue to Warrior.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;If you know me, you know leveling is not my strong suit.&amp;nbsp; Ala, Drak'Thul, and the infamous Animal Kingdom of Altar of Storms.&amp;nbsp; Much thanks to the Unruly rerolls (Hypno, Ganache) making my leveling much easier.&amp;nbsp; But what I lost in leveling, I made up for EASILY in achieving gear at 70.&amp;nbsp; I snagged my heroic badge shield in nearly one&amp;nbsp;single day.&amp;nbsp; Mechanar, Botanica, Ramparts, Blood Furnace, Underbog, Steamvaults, Slave Pens, all pug'd all in one day.&amp;nbsp; What can I say?&amp;nbsp; I'm good with pugs!&amp;nbsp; From 60-70 I made sure I did every rep quest as well as running each instance repeatedly to ensure Revered in each faction.&amp;nbsp; I didn't miss an instant of AV weekend, and farmed UB for everyday available to me for Stormsong Kilt. &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
While all this was happening, TFM/Overrated were the hype.&amp;nbsp; The 2345 comp, as its known today, was reigning over everything else.&amp;nbsp; Noktyn took a special interest in a Shaman named Douja.&amp;nbsp; Sck/Douja pairing as probably the best support a 5 man at 60 could have, stuck out in Noktyn's mind.&amp;nbsp; I don't blame him for wanting a Shaman.&amp;nbsp; After playing with windfury the majority of his days at 60, he's one to know its OP factor.&amp;nbsp; Around the time I was getting my 40 mount on Nitlo, we had a team meeting about&amp;nbsp; Douja.&amp;nbsp; Douja had put the pressure on Sck/Noktyn, claiming he was going to quit the game if not given a shot on the team.&amp;nbsp; The meeting ended with one thing resolved, we all agreed to give me a chance on Shaman.&amp;nbsp; Looking back on it,&amp;nbsp;although&amp;nbsp;everyone said they&amp;nbsp;agreed on giving me a shot.&amp;nbsp; Noktyn wasn't going to be satisfied with anything but Douja.&amp;nbsp; &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
My 5v5 play on my Shaman was short-lived.&amp;nbsp; Although having a winning record against every team we faced (barely over .500 against Rag Dolled, but still over .500), it wasn't good enough for my team mates.&amp;nbsp; It's my belief that&amp;nbsp;some&amp;nbsp;of the&amp;nbsp;people on my team were looking for any excuse to get Douja on the team.&amp;nbsp; One night of bad play against Rag Dolled was enough for them.&amp;nbsp; The previous night we easily had&amp;nbsp;a winning record against them, but this day they overtook us.&amp;nbsp; In complete fairness, of the matches we lost, the majority of them were my fault.&amp;nbsp; I played too aggressively, and was too damage hungry.&amp;nbsp; I often would ignore purge opportunities to cast lightning bolts.&amp;nbsp; It put me in a lot of bad positions, and sometimes I would lose track of the fight.&amp;nbsp; The night I stopped playing 5v5 on my Shaman it seemed like no matter what I did I was criticized.&amp;nbsp; One particular fight stood out for me.&amp;nbsp; It was the last 5v5 I ever played with them.&amp;nbsp; Kintt pushed too far into the middle on Blade's Edge arena VERY early in the match.&amp;nbsp; I was already pre-purging, but noticed quickly of Kintt's bad position (extremely bad in this case, 2345 is notorious for solely focusing Priests).&amp;nbsp; I started a Lesser Healing Wave that landed.&amp;nbsp; I can't remember how low he was after that heal, but instead of using NS, I started up another Lesser Healing Wave.&amp;nbsp; A bad choice in retrospect, which lead to a 4v5.&amp;nbsp; The rest of the match I played near perfect, but was heavily criticized for not&amp;nbsp;making the correct play in an unusual circumstance.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;We ended up almost winning despite the very early set back.&amp;nbsp; I'm completely positive that Kintt would take the blame for that loss, but for the rest of the team they had had enough.&amp;nbsp; That loss put them over the edge.&amp;nbsp; The finger of blame eventually pointed my way, and that was it for me. &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming to be some all-star super Shaman, but&amp;nbsp;I thought it was understood within the team that it would take a little bit to develop a natural grasp of the class.&amp;nbsp; Judge for yourself: &lt;a href="http://files.filefront.com/Nitlowmv/;8181282;;/fileinfo.html" class="content"  target="_blank"&gt; has said that you should thank your enemies because they teach you more than your friends.&amp;nbsp; Failure is one such enemy, and a very powerful one at that. &amp;nbsp;I know, because I have failed more often and in a greater variety of attempts than anyone I know. &amp;nbsp;I also have had some spectacular successes that I would not have experienced if I had not been willing to risk failing. I&amp;rsquo;ll take that a step further and admit that I&amp;rsquo;ve learned far more from my mistakes and failures than from any of my accomplishments. You cannot learn without risking failure. That&amp;rsquo;s part of the reason I&amp;rsquo;ve experienced my share of failure: I like to learn new things. Learning requires failure; you won&amp;rsquo;t learn if you are not willing to make mistakes and fail. &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
In the end, my catch phrase, &amp;quot;Can't be stopped&amp;quot;,&amp;nbsp;is nothing more than a catch phrase, but the willingness to attempt the impossible, and fail,&amp;nbsp;will&amp;nbsp;be the only path to lead me to my goal of&amp;nbsp;becoming truly&amp;nbsp;unstoppable.&amp;nbsp; &#13;
&lt;/div&gt;&#13;
&lt;div&gt;&#13;
Please excuse my punctuation, grammar, and spelling errors.&amp;nbsp; I never was a good writer, but what I wrote I felt needed to be written.&#13;
