    health? awesome

    Completely agree with comments -- my wife and stepson follow insanely strict gluten-free diets ... just in the last few years it's amazing how it's changed from being a health food store specialty item to something that seems pretty mainstream in supermarkets to chain restaurants. At first is...

    Portal 2

    Yeah, that IS the norm. Read something a year or two ago that some company or another had tried to do multi-platform MMO FPS (can't remember what game it was ... CoD or Halo or something) ... and abandoned the wh ole concept because mediocre PC players were just wasting skilled console players...

    Portal 2

    Amazon should be delivering mine later today ... got the 360 version as I totally can't handle FPS-style games with keyboard/mouse. Portal was my favorite console game of the last 5, maybe 10 years. Totally looking forward to blasting blue and orange holes in the wall tonight.

    Anyone live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area?

    I lived there also, but it was awhile ago. But one thing is that the Metroplex is huge ... and you transition from urban to suburban to rural pretty quickly. It's a weird thing where you have two urban population centers (Dallas and Fort Worth) with a blob of concrete to-semi-rural suburbia...

    Zygor guide/addon - Blizzlegal or no?

    I have a work friend who has recently gotten into WoW, and he has been using the Zygor guides and addon. Not something I'm very familiar with. He recently hear some noise around it being a bannable addon. Anyone familiar with Zygor and/or its legality? Basically, it's heavy-duty Quest Guide...

    How come Turner's not at the very bottom, like his NCAA Tourney bracket?

    Heroic guides

    Well, there are four bosses, in this order: General Umbriss (dragonspawn) Forgemaster Throngus (ettin dude who pats around the forge) Drahga Shadowburner (caster who gets on a dragon in phase 2) Erudax (big demon insect thingee) We did Umbriss and Thongus, skipped Drahga, and did...

    Heroic guides

    So, here's how this went - Around midnight (maybe 12:30 to 1), Baddwin convinced me to not be wimpy, and he, Cynica, and I queued for a heroic. Throne of Tides popped, but for whatever reason the tank didn't like ToT so we re-queued (but took down the first ToT boss). Then we got Grim...

    High Points in Redeemed Raiding

    That will be for a separate thread, LOW points in Redeemed Raiding.

    Heroic guides

    Totally appreciate all the guildy offerings! Challenge is that my dungeon window is usually 10:30/11 to 12 PM server time ... so I miss the window for most of you since people, actually, like sleep ... except for Gala who's up then but should be writing papers and such. While there have some...

    High Points in Redeemed Raiding

    No doubt, Majordomo was the main raiding barrier during Vanilla and getting through that was big. But it's such a letdown of a fight ... I mean, you don't even kill the guy, he just runs off and you're left with a loot box. The Rag downing still felt better, somehow ... and then Vael, being a...

    Heroic guides

    I think that's what I should do ... part of the heroic fear is that seeing either brand new stuff (heroic deadmines and SFK) or stuff I'm only faintly familiar because I haven't run enough normals ... just avoiding the "dungeon randomizers" on the LFD tool should remove a decent chunk of anxiety.

    I think you're right. But I'm still scurred!

    High Points in Redeemed Raiding

    This sort of came up in guild chat the other night, and I thought it'd make a fun memory/nostalgia thread. Concept is: by Xpac, what has Redeemed's greatest accomplishment in raiding been? Recent patch strategy has made this a little weird ... killing an "lower level" boss "earlier" in an...

    Heroic guides

    So my gear's now ok, and my UI setup and button-mashing is non-stellar but competent ... but I'm still scurred of heroics because I haven't run enough normals to be familiar with many of the boss fights. Throw in the randomness of pugs and the fact that as a healer I'l be a single point failure...

    Brackets

    I think you meant Gilga does NOT know sports, right? Which, given my collegiate pedigree, you'd expect, right? Actually, on this one, my stepson filled out the bracket, so I blame him on all fails. Although he took it very seriously because he wants to win the $1M Yahoo contest so he can buy...

    Really? I thought you'da gone with tab1: Steve tab2: Jobs Or am I overstating the fanboi?

    Gold Cap, I haz it.

    I'm pretty sure that Tree funded the 5th tab back in the day, so he should already have naming rights once...

    Call for donations for Ventrilo server (March 2011)

    But this comparison really makes Vent seem terrible in comparison to mumble, I gotta say... http://wow.joystiq.com/2010/07/18/ventrilo-vs-mumble/
