Weekly Happenings: March 15th

Welcome back, family and friends.  Its Monday Tuesday, which means I’m a day late but worth the wait to review the happenings of last week , shake off the weekend hangover and get back to the grind.

I’m happy to say I had a much more successful week in terms of capturing news of achievements and a little more flavor of non raid related news.  Its always a tender balance between raiding and non-raiding content.  Raiding tends to be the most organized aspect of group play generating the most planning, forum posts and overall buzz.  That doesn’t mean it even represents the majority of the most hardcore raider’s time in game, though.  Luckily I was able to keep a better ear to the ground and found out about a ton of awesome successes in ECC this week.

Achievements:

Ari is in the middle of a march towards Loremaster of Northrend on her Shaman, eliviani.  This week she checked off Might of Dragonblight and Veteran of the Wrathgate in the process.

Cicera and Naiadmuerte each popped achievements that make my mind boggle: Lance a Lot and 1000 Fish respectively.  Anyone willing to Joust or fish that much has a strength of will and depth of patience that I will just never be able to approach.

Speaking of patience, Shengli and Jaileth have both been getting their PuG on with Looking for Many and Looking for Multitudes.  Titles and cute pets abound!

Anarche (AKA Kitten Tits) popped 30 exalted reputations this week.  He seems to have a knack for getting both NPCs and humans to like him despite his gruff exterior.  I wonder if he’s found a way to make NPCs laugh with buady stories…

Haian is getting his start down the same road with 5 exalted reps himself.  I’m not sure if fables of finding people fornicating with foul will help you as much as they did Arch, but its worth a try.

Egodina has been dishing out some PvP pain to earn That takes class.  Hopefully she’s been able to avoid letting too many hordies return the favor.

Bakku is seeking the Holy Grail, and picked up Its Just a Flesh Wound en route.  Hopefully he already knows his favorite color, or Terry Gilliam will pwn his arse.

Finally Avvala either has OCD or is incredibly lucky… or maybe a lot of both.  He finished off Bloody Rare this week in the kind of killing spree that will have the NSA recruiting him as a spook in no time.

Please PM me or leave a comment here if you have an achievement or other significant character accomplishment to include in next weeks column.

New Members:
We only had one person pass muster and join the ranks this week.  So, please give an extra warm welcome to Rothwell.  According to the Armory… Roth is a Blood Elf Paladin who’s joined ECC on the Kilrogg server.  Perhaps he’s a spy, or he’s going under the knife for a soul change operation… Either way, it sounds like there is one less Pally around to gank me in Wintergrasp while I farm, so lets all be glad for it.

Raiding: 
Third Time’s a Charm hit a technical bug with one of their scheduled raid days getting dominated by instance server crashes.  They still managed to get the Blood Princes down Saturday and are extending the lockout to renew their domination of Valithria, and show Blood Queen Lanithel how its done…  and by it, I mean dying… and by showing her how, I mean doing it repeatedly in her presence until she decides to try it herself. 

The Cherry Poptarts are back at it.  Lue took the time to lead a bunch of folks into the fray for the first time against Lord Marrowgar for the weekly quest last week, and this week they’re running Friday and Saturday night.  Its not too late to sign up for the team and get into the action!  Justclick right here!
 
Cornerstone met with news this week that their beloved leader (and lover of chickens) Handimus is likely on the verge of a WoW break, and are making the most of their next few weeks with him.  Stay tuned for news.  I’m sure whatever happens, the team will continue their march toward ICC and have a blast in the process.
 
Guildie of the week:
I’m still waiting for my first outside submission for guildie of the week.  In the meantime I have to go with the people that I have the best chance to see doing awesome stuff for their comrades, and this week that has to be Beansey.  If you missed his Trivia event on Sunday, I can only hope whatever else you did made you darn happy.  A grand time was had by all, and we learned that Ecco and Beansey have similar movie knowledge, much to other competitors’ dismay.

If you’d like to nominate someone as member of the week, please PM me your reason for supporting your nominee.

Forum Post of the week:
Shadesta took this one in a landslide victory.  A couple of weeks after his stellar post on hunter gearing stats, he went far beyond the call of duty by looking up a good sample of ECC hunters on the armory and proactively finding general tips that he felt would be useful to many of them.  Who puts that much work into providing informational resources to their guildmates?  Apparantly Shad does, and he deserves some recognition.  Give him a high five next time you see him in Dalaran trying to degrease his sausages.

Coming up:
Later this week I’ve got another treat for you in the form of an interview with one of our very own XOs, and I’m working on an editorial on how to be the best asshole you can be.

Be well and love fiercely,

Ecco
