It was a long hard slog

I persevered through lag and odd playtimes and no groups to accomplish my goal: Elizabet is 60.

Ok, that doesn’t really mean shit since I could have had her at 60 about three weeks ago. Or the fact that it’s number 4 to cap out. And woopie for me, accomplishing something 5 million other people have. WTFE. At least I got to equip

WOWITEM:

    Darkmoon Card: Heroism

. Next order of business is to max out Herbalism and Skinning so I can get into full on grinding while I wait for opportunities to use
WOWITEM:

    Foror’s Compendium of Dragon Slaying

(currently looking for
WOWITEM:

    Head of Rend Blackhand

to progress on my Ony key).

Meanwhile, other people get to play Majer :( Let’s just say a Mage is not the chartacter to be playing when trying to grind

WOWITEM:

    Rugged Leather

seeing as the beasties that turn into it can bitch slap you silly in the 10-15s of lag that I am dealing with. <3 Majer

Oh yeah, I have a site redesign in progress. (Which means, in typical fashion, I have this gorgeous vision in my head without the fscking l33t skilz to get out in code.) All seven of ya can look for it next week. (Edit: stupid white items on a white background :( )

  1. Grats on the meat-shield grind. And have fun doing those lovely attunement quests ;-). I know your pain with playing with lag, the first four months of playing wow I’d average 1500ms. It’s an interesting perspective when you think anything under 3,000ms is ‘playable’.

  2. so that is basically an accoplishment right? it was all greek to me, though if it was greek i could understand that a little more, if it was latin though, i would have goten the whole darn thing, i must say that i like the way those little items look, i guess that is one plus of WOCrack!! if the game did not require me to spend money monthly i would consider buying it, but… it costs, so i will stick to my single players and some War III over Lan, now that is fun stuff man, but still congrats!!

  3. !!

    So that is the motivation huh? >.> You are a crafty devil aren’t you.

    geez. we should work out a play time this weekend so we can instance!! I’ve been DIEING to try it out >.>

    How much Rugged do you want anyway? >.> Oh and any runecloth i get that doesn’t make bandaids to replace the ones i use go to snow >.> she needs a pony.

    ... omygosh i am sending you an invite Otherbro >.>

  4. I MTed Live Strat last night with ~2s of lag. o.O I only really had problems when a) the Warlock wouldn’t let me get a Sunder on the elites before AEing and b) I got lag spikes up over 4s. No good loots for me, but if anyone is ever on when I am I am more than up for a instance run. DPS would probably be a better role, but I can make it work. :)

    And I am working for Amulet of the Darkmoon so I need about 2400 Rugged Leather to make Rugged Armor Kits for tickets.

  5. I’ll work on it. I’m taking Sat and Sunday to play Snow and Maj. Well, I’m going on a pity date first, then I will play :)

  6. pity date? i think i should call you about his stuff!!

  7. Congrats! On the junk and you Jayd on the pitty date. Sometimes pitty dates turn into “Hey, that wasn’t so bad maybe I should do it again” dates!

    PS I think everyone should play on dial up so they can appreciate my play skills!!!

  8. and here is what Gorgo had to say about that:

    “Jayd wrote:
    I won’t be around, I have a pity date and then a family thing.

    I wonder how many girls did this when i was dating…doomed from the start…poor guy.

    He is probably as we speak all excited and nervous about tmorrow’s date with you, getting ready and going over his head what he is gogin to say to you…little does he know he’s doomed from the start.

    Here’s to you Doomed from the start Date Guy.” ~Gorgorath

    That made me almost feel bad. :(

  9. ROFL. Gorgorath is a funny dude.

  10. My older sister got a call from this guy asking her out in high school. She told him “I have to wash my hair.” I’m not teasing. That’s exactly what she told him. He called back in a couple of hours, “You finished with your hair yet? If not, how about tomorrow night?” I felt bad for the guy and started lobbying for him, “Just go out with him! You at least get dinner even if he is icky.” They’ve been married over 20 years now.

  11. I think they are all very sweet and slightly naive to think I am going out with anyone other than myself.

    Yes, you heard it, I am taking myself on a pity date. Well someone’s got to do it!

  12. One more thing (I tried to resist. Honest I did.)

    “6. OtherBro – 2006.07.14
    pity date? i think i should call you about his stuff!!”

    What about his stuff, OtherBro?

  13. Pretty sure he meant “this stuff” think Mudir, you kinda have to read it without knowing what all the letters are to the words. ;)

  14. i ment “this stuff” the friggin compy!!!

    though personally you can’t have a pitty date with yourself!!! i don’t understand that if it is a pitty date, you got to actually go out with some other than you alternate personality out on a date

  15. So you don’t actually know about his stuff? Bummer. I was hoping to get the scoop.

    I agree though. If it’s a pity date, it’s with a person of the opposite gender. Otherwise, it’s just Girl’s Night Out.

    thinks Jayd is fibbing about GNO to avoid phone calls about pity boy’s stuff

  16. i don’t know if she is fibbing, which is sad peronally, i would like her to have a true pitty date, i like the story Naye told above, it is a good one and i hiope that there might be a guy out there that is going to bother the piss out of Jayd so she will finally go out!!

  17. um, no. I think we all remember what happened to the last two guys who bugged the crap out of me… I called them Stalker #2 and #3. Not only that but stalker #3 ended up on a suicide watch after some of his emails to me… so yeah. I don’t think so peeps.

    I’m good, thanks. I’ve got two dates lined up for Thanksgiving and Christmas >.> I’m good, really.

    Besides, a sweeties was waiting up for me when I got home after my date with myself. :) and now I am waiting up for him after guys night out. :P

  18. just because some people are FUCKTARDS does not mean that all of them are!! just 98.5% in the states, my answer is move out of the US, yup, that is my answer to everything!!

  19. So really by pity date Jayd means she’s going out for the evening. Probably a good thing, pull yourself away from the pixelated world for a night. And since it’s well after the fact I’m sure we’d all like to hear how this pity date went. hmmm?
