Divine Plea: July 2011
http://paladindivineplea.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 28, 2011. Holy Paladin Talents - where does that last point go? So where does this leave the up and coming player? What talents are 'required' and which are optional? Is there any real flexibility in a raid environment? The answer, as usual, is "it depends". Talents I consider 'optional'. Arbiter of the Light (T1). This is a ret or prot talent plain and simple. This doesn't even belong in a PvP/Arena build. Stay away. I put this in italics, because it's really a shockadin/PvP talent. I...

Divine Plea: December 2011
http://paladindivineplea.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 21, 2011. TOR - Looking past the shiny package. Yesterday, like many I suspect, I spent a few hours playing Bioware's new MMO - The Old Republic. I would be shocked if anyone reading this blog didn't know what I'm talking about, so I'll cut through the nonsense and get right to the heart of it. I'll do a little compare/contrast to WoW, what I think is done right, what I think needs improving, and where we go from here. Yeah, I've got a lightsaber. The first 3 hours. So, character crea...

The Socially Awkward Doomkin: Socially Awkward in Other Venues
http://sadoomkin.blogspot.com/2010/07/socially-awkward-in-other-venues.html
Friday, July 30, 2010. Socially Awkward in Other Venues. Woe is me. I haven't logged onto Warcraft. In a couple weeks now. What with a relocation and multiple parental visits, I've just been too. To want to log on and slog a character through randoms or trudge to 80 on my lock (a whopping 2 levels. maybe someday) or my hunter. Hopefully I'll be back to WoW. Soon with renewed vigor. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). TOR - Good vs Evil, and Light vs Dark. Because my real name violates the ToS.

Save the Lightwell: Blogrr 2.0
http://savethelightwell.blogspot.com/2011/06/blogrr-20.html
Tuesday, June 14, 2011. I've started up blogging again, and with that endeavor comes a new blog (that is a little less. WoW oriented) that can be found at http:/ blogrr20.blogspot.com/. It's still a work in progress). I'll still blog about WoW when I feel there's something relevant to write about, but going forward all future posts can be found at the new site. Look for your fix of metal updates, game reviews/opinions, and other random musings regularly from now on. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Socially Awkward Doomkin: Ants vs. Air Traffic Controllers
http://sadoomkin.blogspot.com/2010/04/ants-vs-air-traffic-controllers.html
Thursday, April 22, 2010. Ants vs. Air Traffic Controllers. I thought I'd carry on a theme here from my last post. Today, let's talk about the situational awareness capabilities of raiders. I was listening to a book (I won't mention which one, so that I can keep my nerdiness level as is, rather than elevating it to ridiculous heights), and I heard a quote that immediate brought WoW to mind: "The sound perception of an ant does not include thunder.". The Air Traffic Controller:. Be honest with yourself.

Save the Lightwell: T-Minus... 4 days. SC2 beginner's guide (part 2)
http://savethelightwell.blogspot.com/2010/07/t-minus-4-days-sc2-beginners-guide-part.html
Friday, July 23, 2010. T-Minus. 4 days. SC2 beginner's guide (part 2). A couple days ago I posted a few general tips to get folks started in SC2 multi-player. Today I will go over a few tips that are specific to playing the Terrans. Wings of Liberty's single player experience focuses primarily on the Terrans. There will likely be some sort of tutorial to explain the ins and outs of the Terrans, which makes them an excellent race to start out with if you're new to StarCraft multi-player. If you're going t...

Save the Lightwell: T-Minus... 8 days...
http://savethelightwell.blogspot.com/2010/07/t-minus-8-days.html
Monday, July 19, 2010. T-Minus. 8 days. I realize that most of the past posts on this blog have been WoW related, but come on. it's friggin' StarCraft II. I haven't been this excited about a new game release since the Diablo II release ten years ago. I can't decide though, whether or not my excitement about the upcoming release and my enjoyment I've had playing the beta is due to the game being great, or me simply "missing" playing that type of game. StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty. Gamer, Geek, and Metal...

Save the Lightwell: November 2009
http://savethelightwell.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 5, 2009. The Effects of a Failed First Impression: A Lightwell Story. The Importance of a positive "First Impression," whether it be in business, relationships, or any other social situation, is one of those things that cannot be stressed enough. Having been in hiring and recruitment for a long time, and having done many interviews with potential candidates for different positions, I can personally vouch for how incredibly important a positive "First Impression" truly is. Seconds to ca...

Save the Lightwell: Rule #1
http://savethelightwell.blogspot.com/2010/05/rule-1.html
Thursday, May 13, 2010. So I haven't blogged in a while. I really don't have much of an excuse for that fact, other than there simply hasn't been anything (imo) to blog about. The game hasn't changed much, anything Cataclysm-related is likely going to change a bazillion times before release, and there hasn't been anything earth-shattering to note. This guild we merged with seems to only have one rule, a rule in which their officers seem to almost religiously refer to as "Rule #1.". Another example. R...
