Oh HI! Remember Me?

It seems like forever since I've taken the time to write something up, and I guess it has been.  For whatever reason "blogging" (I ******* hate that word btw, it just rubs me the wrong way) really hasn't been high on my priority list for the past while.  I don't see my schedule really loosening up any time soon, but I'm gonna' try and focus more of my free time on writing some interesting stuff.  I'd really like to get back on top of daily updates (picture a Shadow-Gaming revival but with better writing and content),  and if that happens I may end up moving to my own page again.  We'll just have to see.

A big part of my hiatus from writing (at least on Gameriot and related sites) has been due to my hiatus from WoW.  It's nice to write about other topics, but if you're going to bother writing for a gaming audience then you better have some gaming things to write about as well.  I'm happy to report that I'm back in the game full-swing.

WoW
I'm playing WoW seriously for the first time in over a year.  I'm currently playing Rogue, Warrior, and Druid in arenas, and re-learning Shadow Priest.  I feel like I'm starting to catch up and play at or above the level I used to on all of these classes, and I'm having a great time in arenas.   I'm playing with two incredible Vengeful Gladiators, and there's a very good chance that we'll be looking to get sponsored and attend events once we get rolling.  I'll be more detailed about where I'm playing and who I'm playing with once we've figured out the teams we're using seriously. 

Isolee, HL, and I played Rogue/Rogue/Druid for a couple nights on the TR and got to about 1740 (I believe it was the highest rated RRD in the second phase of TR2 at the time, could be wrong) before getting frustrated with the limitations of the comp.  Despite the performance of SK-Gaming at MLG San Diego, RRD should simply NEVER lose to teams like Resto Shaman/Druid/Warrior, and these type of comps are out of control on the tournament realm.  It didn't help that we never played RRD enough to really get on the same page in terms of strategy, but it was still an interesting couple of nights.  We probably could have pushed RRD higher eventually but it just wasn't enjoyable for anyone.  

I'm out of town for the next 3-4 days, but we're already working on another team that looks much more promising so far.  I expect we'll probably end up doing better things on live due to the time limit on TR (TR doesn't give us much time to compete on synergy with teams who have played together for months), but I think our new setup is certainly capable of making top four if we put in the time.

Anyway, I'll start working on another video ASAP to (hopefully) prove that I'm not a total has-been.  Expect to see footage from at least three different classes.

Porn (lol)
My second interview with Winter Sky has been done for a while, but she's a little reluctant to post it due to the response that she got last time. 

(9:38:49 PM) Winter: its just bull****
(9:38:54 PM) Winter: im just there to chat
(9:39:01 PM) Winter: people dont realise that im just a person too
(9:39:05 PM) Me: yeah
(9:39:06 PM) Winter: or maybe some of them do

Obviously I responded by saying:


Actually I can see where she's coming from, and after I explained that her experience is really no different from anyone else who presents themselves on Gameriot, she agreed to let me post the interview.  Still not sure if I'll bother, we'll see.

Have a good weekend everyone.  I'm spending the fourth at my gf's cabin so I won't be around to respond to anything on here.

Happy Independence Day etc., etc.
