Post Your Amusements!

Just discovered Theck latest blog and the official forum topic linked to it.

Oh.

My.

Celestia.

I don't know what's more hilarious, imagining the little dwarf rage like a chibi toon out of some anime, him throwing an hilarious “Who is Theck and why do we care?” or Theck delivering the massive smackdown with all the class and style of a proper gentleman?

Is it coincidence that I'm reading a cracked article about why he was the Greatest American?

Not really. I posted the link after reading the same cracked article.

Saturday raid was amusing for me. Our poor poor paladin tank Pfife.

Ra'sha's Sacrificial Dagger was a source of much amusement for me.

Run down the stairs next to Pfife, randomly yell out, "damnit Pfife! You killed me!" and then pop the dagger to die at his feet.

I'm so evil.

Top guilds reaching the end of the heroic tier. Cue the idiot masses claiming that since three guilds in the world have almost finished it that their gaming experience is forever tarnished and their enjoyment of the game is at an all time low since last tier when the same fucking thing happened.

Edit: Oh and EA's CEO has stepped down. So much for the SimCity fiasco being just bad PR eh?

[Klaudandus]

"If you want to have an adult conversation about this"

Wow way to talk down to your readers from the get go. I'm sure that'll get a bunch of people to buy into your point of view.

Firs thing that came to mind was Colin Moriarty's attack on the ME3 fans

Of course, what I liked the most was when other publications attacked him in return for missing the point.

A contributor to a Forbes blog is basically a Huffington Post blogger.

Perhaps, but doesn't mean he's wrong though.

I read the post, and something bothers me every time this comes up: people seem to forget the weeks (?, certainly days) of time these guilds spend on the PTR working on the encounters. If I understand right, that's the norm for these top guilds. Hell, it's part of the reason we have encounter guides and addons like DBM functional the day content is released!

And the fact that they start raiding at 8 am and don't stop until 2 or 3 am, 7 days a week until the place is cleared when the patch goes live.

[bldavis]

hell if it took them longer i would be worried i would never be able to see the content on normal!
