the evn show

Nice man. Tonight is a Hyjal main/alt run. Friday is a full clear of BT, with Saturday-Monday being SWP. I know we will get Kal/Brut down Saturday. I think Felmyst will take us Saturday/Sunday, I know we will have no trouble dps'in down M'uru in either phase nor have problems controlling adds in P1. So only hard fight I see left for us is Eredar twins. I doubt we will get past twins though, rest of the guild is staying optimistic.

Good luck in the place. If you can get to twins you can do kil'jaeden: he shouldn't take more than a day to learn.

There's certainly enough time left before wrath to kill him (yea the zone is really that easy) so I hope you get the achievement.

Nice UI +the evn show

Thanks.

I am still going to keep up with this thread and fuss at you evn

<3

My guild disbanded and a handful of the raiders merged up with "good" players from the other 'good' guilds.

A bunch of re-rolls from the best guild on our server (alliance side, died on pre-nerf m'uru) and some people from a few of

the top-50 guilds on Wowjutsu. It's certainly a great group of people and I'm hopeful we'll be able to progress without dedicating our lives to it. A lot of people who didn't get invited are understandably ****ed off: it'll be interesting to see how it all shakes out over the next couple months.

One more week to go...

I had vacation scheduled to start on the 17th. I've got a week to level (and be lazy around my house) and then I'm spending 10-days at a resort in mexico: great way to recover from the 70-80 grind IMO.

Took a year, but I finally won a drawing.

20081111-kwa5xt8ntgkyp64pwdp6pcn1fb.jpg

Originally I wanted 5/5 Avatar with Belt/Boots of the Long Road and Staff of Immaculate Recovery

but never managed to win a chest from Kael.

Ended up going with 6/8 Absolution & Belt of Divine Guidance/Boots of Divine Light because the other

two set pieces don't match (they're intended to go with the Sunwell off-set stuff). I dug out Anathema

because it remains the coolest staff in the game. I'm not a fan of the Sunwell art style and I didn't

manage to win shoulders from Twins either.

I'll post pictures when it finally shows up.

If you want to install WotLK early and not have to wait until you have the DVD

Simply follow this link: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/account/dow.../InstallWoW.exe

Run InstallWoW.exe.

Select the last option for World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Litch King.

Voila. You are now downloading and installing the expansion so you will be the first one in on the 13th.

*Note: I have done this and you can still log-in and play even if you still have Burning Crusade active on your account. File download size is 1.9GB. This will also reset your WoW back to 3.01, so you will need to re-patch back up to 3.03.

How could anyone even find that? I can't even access any wow page atm.

Have you done this? And if so, does it cache the installer files somewhere where I can back them up to use later, or does it just directly install? Because I'd LOVELOVELOVE to have the entire thing tucked away in a folder on an external drive instead of shuffling disks or having a bunch of separate installers for each release.

To answer - yes, I have done it this morning. :)

Also, it saves the ENTIRE installation DVD to your desktop. But ... it does install at the same time, so it will install into your WoW folder while also downloading the expansion to your desktop.

Good luck getting into the server when people start getting their copies of wotlk! gonna be hell on the 1st few days. im gonna wait for a bit until everything dies down a bit.

Oh come, it's not going to be that bad. Me and my friend started a BE on day one of TBC release and on Illidan which is one of the most crowded PVP servers. We never really had a problem getting in or leveling.

Does anyone know for sure if WotLK activation will turn on at 12:01AM EST or before? Keep seeing people saying this but never solid proof.

There was a Blue post on the official forums saying it was going to be up at 9:00pm EST or 6:00pm PDT. Can't link it right now due to their forums being offline.

The installer linked above is on a certain torrent site full of pirates. :p 7.8GB. Tons of seeders and leechers. Leaving mine on all night, install tommorow, so I just gotta put in key and ready to go. :)

Are you sure that's legit? The installer I linked is 1MB and is just a launcher to Blizzards servers to download WoW, BC, and WotLK. :|

Can upgrade your account assuming you got your copy early with the key. Now if I can only go ahead and get LK installed, and when I come home from Gamestop just enter in my code and I'll be g2g.

Appears realms are slowly coming up.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By sphbecker · Posted

      All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By sphbecker · Posted

      You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
