RUN, MERVYN, RUN

Just exploring and minding my own business, when I hear clumping behind me...

Blizzard makes mistakes too! ..and funnies.

This is a small collection of rants and suggestions/answers by Blizz employees. enjoy!


WTB sex change?


Meat wall?

Can my image have a helmet please? He is speshel.

I always thought Ansel was the best functioning drunk... perhaps not.

...more funny to come

News from Lich King

STOP! If you are looking for something funny leave this thread.

The TI times staff has officially stopped strike! Well at least I have. Mervyn is still stuck at level 73 QQing about how nerfed his class is.

Now onto the good stuff!

Lich King is the second expansion released by Blizzard entertainment. It delves much deeper into the lore of the World of Warcraft series and for the most part is beautifully done. Some highlights include:

* More interaction with the world surrounding you. This includes siege weapons, introduction of the death knights and lore, a darker game setting and an overall better way of incorporating you into the lore.

* The ability to level to 80. duh! Time to grind again!

* The introduction of many new instances. Yeah, this is not really news. However, did I mention that most of the new instances only take about 45 minutes? Yeah. Much better design in my opinion.

* New 10 and 25 man dungeons. Well... not really. Naxx is the start of your progression. Lots of fun in there!

* New spells and abilities that will blow your mind... and some that wont. Some will melt your mind! Literally.

* Pet and mount tabs. Thank you sweet baby Jesus.

* Shadow effects finally introduced. They take the game to a whole- nutha - level!

* Death knight starting area rocks!

* Inscription will allow for more spec/class diversity.

* Most 51 point talents are really well designed.

* All tanking classes/specs will be able to tank endgame! (Hopefully. This is still being worked out!)


So much more is being implemented. I will leave you guys with this while I go back to choking my chicken. Hopefully that will get some creative juices flowing...














with the newly implemented leash for pets. Geez guys! Get your minds out of the toilet!

Meet the TI Staff

Say hello to Tiahtoon. She is one of the many, many gnomes that work hard behind the scenes to help make TI work as well as it does.

Tiah spent many years training to become a rogue. She learned the basics from the masters in Bael Modan and she took to it well, but she was unfulfilled.

One day on a harrowing trip to Ironforge, she discovered the Auction House, a most wondrous place with people buying and selling, she spent days, fascinated by the fluctuations of the market and the way gold moved around.

Alas, all her learning did no good, as she had no goods to sell and no gold with which to buy things.

That all changed, when her old friend Minicat from Bael Modan recommended she come work for TI, they would supply her the gold and materials to play the market and in return she would get a sense of purpose in life.

Well, Tiah thought about it, and decided that the real sign was in her name... Tiah could stand for The Infinite Auction House and that was the clincher for her.

Now she spends all her time in Ironforge running between the mailbox and the AH (with some side trips to vendor things people are stupid enough to post on the AH for less than vendor value).

She works tirelessly in the Auction house, she sells guild items that no one wants, she buys up deals whenever she can to make a few extra gold, sells off overstocks in the guild bank and she sets the prices on the raiding goods each week for sale to members at a 70% discount, that her hard work helps subsidize.

We, the editors of the TI Times, thought it was important for the members to start seeing and appreciating the little people who help make this guild what it is.

Whine, whine whine...

"Oh noes... Leg & Merv haven't published in a while!"

"Hey -- get back to writing you slackers!"

"Oh... c'mon, write some more posts on that cool web site."

Yeah, yeah... you all want us to write blog entries -- funny entries about things that are going on in the guild.

But here is the problem... and it is, at least for me, two-fold.

With the exception of BW... you guys have not done ANYTHING worth writing about.

Look, we're not going to write about taking down A'lar or any of the good stuff, we want to write about the DRAMA! The funny! The mis-quotes. Do you know what the funniest thing that has happened lately? Mervyn had to melee Leo on our last attack because he didn't know his bow was broken! And that-- dear friends, is all about ME! I'm not here to write funny stories about me, I'm here to make fun of YOU!

The other problem is BW is my class leader and she gives me lots of great pots & things every week, so I am not going to write about her -- I will leave that for Legarius to do (which he does well.)

So, if you want me write about stuff. Do things! Wipe the raid in a spectacular way. Do something incredibly n00bish. Say something really, really stupid.

You want these magic fingers to do their typing, that's what I need from you.

Now get out there an act like an idiot!
