Our hard work paid off
Now Yogg-Saron pays repairs
Thanks to all the gnomes
That’s right, Yogg-Saron is no more… at least until next Tuesday.
Tomorrow’s scheduled raid: Gnomeregan!
A little randomness from Lace (ucwatididther?):
“Once upon a time,
There was a boss named Yogg.
Pirate fought against him,
And Vanquisher twice dropped.”
So it’s time for another bi-annual update on our guild activities.
After learning, to our dismay, that we wouldn’t be able to use Invisibility Potions to get passed Flame Leviathan, we put together a team of our top gnomes to develop strategies for Ulduar. Upon learning that our “top gnomes” were merely standing on stools, we booted said gnomes from the guild and re-assigned the task of strategy development to our 17 deathknights. Unfortunately, our 17 deathknights were also gnomes, so we were forced to boot them as well.
Since then, things have been going well. We’re currently holding weekly counseling sessions with Yogg-Saron; he seems to have some anger issues, but we’re working through them, one percent at a time.
In other news, one of our gnomes (who has a deathknight alt, don’t ask me how he avoided the previous mass booting) has developed a moderately successful semi-pug: Pirate Pug (or as I prefer to call it, “JoeyPug”). It runs on Friday nights, currently doing Naxx, OS, and Maly. More info can be found in the appropriate forum (located here).
It should also be noted that we’re once again opening our doors to recruitment. Primarily we’re interested in ranged dps (warlocks, wru), but as always, players of significant skill and experience are always encouraged to apply - regardless of class.
In closing, to prove that we are hardcore, I present you with this picture proof that we raid naked - in game, you sicko!
Well, as I finish up my lunch break here at work, with the current financial crisis looming ominously over my head, I’m thinking it’s time for our bi-annual update of the front page. Where to begin…
Last time I checked in, we were steadily progressing to 80 as a guild. Well, we’re all 80 now — except Gnidget, of course — so we’ve slid back into the raiding groove. Should I say the pugging groove? Let’s be honest, the content isn’t that difficult. I suppose raiding groove has a nicer ring to it. I’d throw up some awesome pictures of us dying to frogger, standing in void zones, and faking ice blocks on Sapphiron, but those things are rather passé at this point. Anyway, the 14 year old kid down the street whose hunter hit 80 last night is already linking you the drops off Malygos.
The real news is that we’ve started recruiting again. If you’re a salty seadog or a buxom wench that doesn’t mind a little abuse then we want you. And trust me, you’ll come to find that I do mean that in the worst possible way. At any rate, there’s a link to recruitment information somewhere on this home page… your first task is to find it. If you cannot do that, then I sincerely doubt your ability to move out of the fire and will kindly ask you to move along.
While waiting for the 1497 people who got off work before I did, I think I’ll share a special message from our very own Elemo:
Salutations most favorable patron of our unostentatious web presence! We find ourselves in want of additional clansmen to bolster our ranks at this juncture in our association’s journey within the virtual divertissement known as World of Warcraft. Situated within the mechanical construct of Cenarius, Pirate primarily engages in the “score and quarter” element raiding metagame. All stripes and strains sharing our particular determination should audition within the appropriate forum. God’s speed.
Anyway, I’ve been slacking on the posting, but we’re currently cruisin’ to 80 (those of us who aren’t already there) and conquering as we go. Looking forward to resuming a raid schedule once we have a sufficient amount of 80s geared up.
We are currently looking for 1 feral druid, 2 resto shamans, a well geared shadow priest, warlock, and holy paladin.
If you are interested please contact Farlin, Thalar, or Fitzcairn.
