war 4 scrubs

I’ve scratched my attempt at this post about four or five times now.  I just don’t know how to write it without sounding…bleh.  Read on.
Sometimes I feel like a complete and utter d-bag when writing blog entries about the Producer’s Letter.  I feel like such a Negative Nellie.  I want to write good things.  I [...]

This likely isn’t news to the WAR team.  I’m sure they have better metrics on all this stuff than I do.  But from a perception point of view, the Auction House is rubbish. (stole a Paul word there)  How did they go from such a robust economy in DAoC to such a meaningless one in [...]

In part three of my soon-to-be-published “How to Stalk Everyone at BioWare/Mythic/EA/Waffle-Iron”, I go in depth about twitter.   You know, twitter.  It’s like facebook for people who just don’t care that much about what their friends are doing.  You can broadcast to the world without a care.

No, it won’t be for two weeks or so.  I actually managed to snag a vacation.  Yay!

Feel better?  No?  Well I do!
ttfn, folks!

Yesterday saw the release of the latest producer’s letter by Carrie. I came up with this Haiku to summarize it’s contents:
New armor and glitz
O-R-V-R is half-fixed
Carrie hates healing.
Actually, even though Carrie indicates that it is socially acceptable to play a DPS Shaman, the news is exciting. I think I would have been a [...]

Today we pick right up where we left off on Armor Sets.  Yay! (sorta)
Armor Sets
Invader – Yep. Another RvR set that’s purely offensive. (pun intended). You can snag this set from the first set of bags in the City Siege. I’d take the crests, personally.
Verdict: Skip it. Skip all [...]

Slow your role, turbo. This ain’t a porno post. The other night I rolled an Archmage to mess around with in Tier 1. I was inspired by Brian over at WASDStomp.com, and frankly, it’s a blast.
