Musings from an Angry Bansidhe

Bansidhe Who?

World of Warcraft what?

All I have to say is that I’m LOVING the Warhammer beta.  Not only do I love the game, I love the geek factor of completing surveys and finding bugs to report.  It all appeals to the retentive teacher in me.

Baby Toons & War

I’ve been playing here and there on a twink toon. She’s a baby rogue, and I may just keep her for the BGs. I don’t know if she’ll hold enough interest for me since I just found out that I’m in the closed beta for Warhammer. Hopefully, it lives up to the hype. (Not that I can post anything due to the NDA. I can state that the beta is underway, and I’m part of it. However, that means no sigs that I can post.)

Another Team Ratshag Avatar

This one is for Phoenicia, the Dwarf tank, who is RED HAWT!

Once again, I have to thank Ratshag for being so patient about this avatar. It took me forever because I was avoiding all things WoW. He’s such a good guy.

WoW Hiatus

The time has come for me to take a break from WoW.  Currently, I’m at that burnout stage.  Sure, I could do dailies until I had amassed a wealth of gold for the expansion, but at this point, I’m not even sure I’ll be around for the expansion.

I think I’m disinterested in WoW because all the people with whom I enjoyed playing have either taken a hiatus or quit ouright.  I know the summer months are always slower for MMOs because everyone is outside taking advantage of the nice weather.  Come winter and WotLK, more people will be gaming in Azeroth.

However, it’s still disheartening to log on to see that everyone you know is no longer playing.  A large part of the reason I log on is to “see” my friends and loved ones.  Granted, I see Tenryuu and Chiryuko every weekend for our weekly breakfast.  I just miss seeing everyone else.  Parenthood, jobs, and new relationships have taken precedence in the lives of my WoW buddies.  Some have just burned out from WoW.  I can relate to that.

I’m still working on the nursery along with trying to get everything ready for the school year that starts in less than three weeks.  I’ll be doing sigs here and there, but the turn-around time won’t be as fast as it was in the beginning of the summer.  Hope everyone understands.

Raided M’s Banner

It’s taken me forever, but I finally finished the banner for Raided M. My original idea of making their title look like a movie rating didn’t lay out well, so I scraped it and used the borders and background they currently have on their site.
