Yes, I Am Still Here

2011-08-02T01:25:00.001-07:00

Yup, still here, and still open to screenshots. I haven't been able to play WoW in forever because my computer blue-screened.

Sometimes you hate computers.

Send 'em to tamagotchisims2@hotmail.com along with your WoW UN/whatever alias you want to refer to yourself as.

Boring Hobbies

2011-01-12T13:52:00.000-08:00

All of us have a boring hobby. Whether it's gathering soda-can pull tabs, or my hobby...

Long-distance WoW swimming.

I went around the entire Nelf island, out of sheer boredom. There was nothing else to do and I wanted to see if there was perhaps anything I missed. Soon I was doing the shore of Auberdine (before Cataclysm) shore of Westfall, and it only went downhill from there.

I may have talked about this before, but it's still something I do on a day when there's nothing else to do.

Phishing

2011-01-12T11:40:00.000-08:00

I'd like to take the time to warn you all not to respond to emails that ask you to confirm your account. I have received today a phishing email accusing me of selling my account.

DO NOT respond to these emails. Do NOT click any link IN these emails at all, and report it to Blizzard.

Post-Cataclysm

2011-01-05T09:45:00.000-08:00

Well, it's been a little while since Cataclysm came out, and a long time since I've posted.

But I'd just like to say...

WHY AUBERDINE?

It was my hearth spot and it was very close to my heart. So let's all have a moment of silence for Auberdine.

And large parts of Stormwind.

Hiatus

2010-11-11T12:32:00.000-08:00

The reason for my hiatus is this: it seems that for some reason my screenshot button (PRT SC on your keyboard) doesn't take a screenshot of WoW itself, but my desktop. Trying to figure out what's doing this, but...

Druids

2010-06-17T14:36:00.001-07:00

I've been working on my Nelf druid, and it's the greatest thing ever, for me. Healing, transforming--this is the ULTIMATE fantasy class in my opinion.

Too bad humans can't be druids...

Back!

2010-05-12T16:28:00.000-07:00

It's been a long time!

I do apologize. First I had to buy a new computer, and then the screenshot feature on my computer wouldn't work in WoW.

So I need you to keep sending in screenshots, since I can no longer take any. :(

Once more, my email is: tamagotchisims2@hotmail.com

Long Time Ago

2010-04-02T16:29:00.000-07:00

Yup, it's been a while, folks!

I've certainly had a long time away from Warcraft, and I do regret it, however...life happens. I'm planning a move to Denver, which you probably didn't see coming...

Email Change

2010-02-24T22:12:00.000-08:00

I'd just like to post and inform you all to refer your funny screenshot submissions to my new email, tamagotchisims2@hotmail.com .

Thanks, and happy WoWing!

I've not been able to get onto Warcraft lately, mainly because my subscription ran out and my local store hasn't been stocking the time-cards lately. It's torture!

-pulls hair out-

Quest Help

2010-02-11T18:59:00.000-08:00

Have I mentioned that I love the "new" map?

It used to be that I had to get help from a friend of mine who also plays WoW--Ko, that is, if you remember her. She'd have to tell me "go in this tavern and talk to that guy first, then go to this plain."

But with this quest help--it's a thing of the past to worry about where to go.

Some of you veterans might not like it, but we other players haven't yet memorized the entire map. :P

The Darkened Bank

2010-01-30T13:47:00.001-08:00

What a beautiful sight. Darkened Bank my foot, this place is a thing of beauty! Wouldn't you agree?

Sick

2010-01-22T07:24:00.000-08:00

Sorry about the lack of updates lately, people. I've had a nasty cold for a few weeks now, but the updates will be more frequent now.

And don't forget, you can submit screenshots yourself!

Send them to thisistama@hotmail.com, and be sure to include instructions on whether or not you want your WoWname omitted, or any friends names (if you were chatting in the screenshot) omitted.

Shatner Commercial

2010-01-20T12:55:00.000-08:00

William Shatner? This is an older commercial, yes, but I'm sure it shocked anyone who saw it. Who expected Shatner to do this sort of thing??

Casual or Rabid?

2010-01-17T10:54:00.000-08:00

I used to think that WoW wasn't for casual gamers, that it was one of those games either you didn't play at all, or played way too often.

But I've definitely learned to change that way of thinking.

I'd like to think of myself as something in between. There are periods where I don't play it at all, and then there are periods about a week long where I can't do anything BUT play WoW!

So, it does happen.

Got any stories? You ever walk away from WoW, but get sucked right back in at the urgings of a friend?

Sharpshooter Kitty

When a hunter's in need, what does she do? She gets a sniper kitty!

What the Heck is THAT?

2010-01-05T10:48:00.000-08:00

If that's a dead creature's bones, I'd hate to see what he did to the other guy before HE died, wouldn't you?

And the breath meter half-gone! Gasp!

Save The Murlocs!

2010-01-02T14:58:00.000-08:00

http://www.savethemurlocs.org

I can hardly believe that I overlooked this website for so long! I, who have slain many murlocs in my time, have never thought of it as a crime until now.

Why do they attack us? Because we attack them! There is no other response to violence, than defense of oneself.

So take a pledge, and never slay a murloc again!

Submit

2009-12-29T13:45:00.000-08:00

To submit a screenshot to this blog, email me at tamagotchisims2@hotmail.com with the picture. Make sure to tell me if you want your WoW name omitted from the screenshot, if your WoW name is present.

Mounts

2009-12-28T16:30:00.001-08:00

I may be just happy to have a horse, but I value my 'slow' little stallion. Perhaps it is also because I am a girl, and that I am thrilled at owning my first horse.

A strange attitude, I suppose, but one I have nonetheless.

I could have faster horses, but, this one I have, I treasure, and value...

MY horse can walk backwards! How many real horses can do that? (Heheh)

Draenei Crushed By Own Mount

2009-12-17T20:22:00.000-08:00

Poor Draenei! I sure hope he doesn't require too much medical attention...all I have is a bottle of water and a piece of cheese.

Funny Fire-spawn

2009-12-17T13:35:00.001-08:00

I've made many, many campfires, but this is the first one that ever spawned itself UNDERWATER!

Needless to say the first thing I did was stand on top of it to see if it would burn me like it would if it was above ground.

Oddly enough--no burn, no damage at all.

Dancing Murlocs and More

2009-12-14T20:14:00.000-08:00

What a motley crew this is! This group agreed to pose while dancing...an enjoyable shot to be sure, for one does not see the Murloc costume around much.

The player wearing it told me you could either get it from two years ago, or you could buy it on eBay...for about $200.

I swear, that's a high price even for such a cool item.

The Land of Ozzy

2009-12-14T15:44:00.001-08:00

I adored this commercial when it was on television and if I recall correctly it was the most recent one that Warcraft has made.

It's the epitome of epic.

Bearer of Gifts

2009-12-13T20:55:00.000-08:00

My friend, Ko (not her real Warcraft name), has helped me enormously in the past, and today was no different.

Not only did she run me through the Stormwind Stockade dungeon, she also gave me gold to buy a horse, as well as ran me all the way to Menethil Harbor, where I bought the stallion of the color that I wanted.

So, I bow before you, Ko. You are the best of friends and I am sure I will be able to repay you someday. I just can't right now.

Make friends, and keep them. That's the message here. You never know when they may decide to be generous.

Priests Are Your Friends

2009-12-13T17:09:00.000-08:00

Any serious Warcrafter knows this. To befriend a priest is to make things much, much easier for yourself should you choose to go on a quest.

Today I went on a quest that involved getting axes from Blackrock outrunners and such, and turning them in. Also, I had to kill one by the name of Yowler, who hung out with two other Blackrocks. (Take his paw, and turn it in)

It was difficult starting out, but, I eventually put forth a proposal to the priest who I'd just met--since I had the 'Blizzard' spell, I'd do the attacking and such, and all he would have to do was heal me.

This was satisfactory to us both, so off we went.

And boy was it easier! Though, a couple of times, he too was attacked.

The gist of it is, make friends with a priest. It can only benefit you!
