Icrontic throws in For the Horde

Icrontic throws in For the Horde (http://gaming.icrontic.com/news/icrontic-throws-in-for-the-horde)

[Buddy J]

However, the thought of jeers and pans from my coworkers, roommate, and friends is enough to put me off of the game. I know that if I caved and got a subscription, I would never hear the end of it. There is a dark, secret part of me that says "thank you, dear friends - because without your discouragement, I would get addicted to this game."

The first play is always free, junkie. Now you gotta pay to play.

[Lincoln]

/me facepalms

[Thrax]

Loktar ogar, etc.

[MachineDog]

Sounds fun! :3 Too bad I despise leveling characters, maybe I'll transfer a toon. Any dad that will play video games with his kids gets my sincere approval. :D I wish my dad could play video games.

[fatcat]

nice knowing y'all

[Gnome Queen]

I'll be throwing in for Qeynos instead, thanks.

[pigflipper]

I'll be throwing in for Qeynos instead, thanks.

I miss Halas.

[Thrax]

I'll be throwing in for Qeynos instead, thanks.

Your new-fangled Qeynos ain't shit compared to the OG Qeynos.

[Winfrey]

*Winfrey bids farewell to Prime until he wakes again from his coma.

[MiracleManS]

I'll be playing today, not sure under what name, but I'll be certain put it in this thread.

Edit: Playing as Orc Warrior Muragerg

[Annes]

Installed WoW last night. Will be installing BC today.

I feel so dirty.

[pigflipper]

For those of you playing, just catch me on and I will get you guilded.

[Winfrey]

For those of you playing, just catch me on and I will get you gelded.

Old Guy Qeynos? Overly Gay Qeynos? Oligarchy Guided Qeynos? What are you talking about? ;)

[Thrax]

OL' GANGSTA. F to the I to the DOUBLE P-Y.

[Gnome Queen]

Well played. :D

[UPSLynx]

cancer, facepalm, ect.

...tarnation.

[Gnome Queen]

Don't forget hellfire, Lynx. Very important.

[Snarkasm]

Brimstone.

[pragtastic]

Ack, installed WoW this morning, looks like there'll be a new Warrior in town.

[Buddy J]

Warriors, come out to play!

[pragtastic]

^this

[Annes]

I'll certainly be a healer. Not sure what type, though.

[pigflipper]

Send me a PM for guild invites and I will try to coordinate a time with you.

[Sledgehammer70]

should totally jump on Wildhammer :) Alliance :) lol /poke

[pigflipper]

roll a toon just to get the charter signed? anybody?

[Thrax]

I can help you out with that.

[pigflipper]

PM me or IRCPM me tomorrow afternoon to get that done.

[Gnome Queen]

Oh, so even Thrax is going to continue play-errr, start playing again? Crazy.

[Thrax]

No, I'll just make a level 1 to sign the charter.

[Lincoln]

:(

/me dusts off his resumé and starts looking for new friends

See you guys in a few months. :sad2:

[Thrax]

We can hang out, Keebler. It's cool.

/me hugs.

[Snarkasm]

I'll still be here!

Please don't shun me just on principle anyway :(

[Gnome Queen]

Hey guys, I feel a sudden urge to shun Snark simply on principle. What do you think?

[Snarkasm]

/me sighs

[MasterBuilder K]

I cant wait to see you guys in WoW!!!

[primesuspect]

Anne is in! We still need three more signatures to form the guild.

If you join up, here are the character names:

Kethark or Kaitolainen (me)
Pigflipper or Flixpinger (piggeh)
Amorisse (Miracleman)
Nicea (Anne)
Prag (Prag)
Kyly (Kyle)
Nekromantis (Grant / formerly Ipmala from my trial blog)

Piggeh has the guild charter, so you have to coordinate with him if you want to sign it.

[Annes]

7 people is not enough to run end-game content. WTB more members, kthx.

[pigflipper]

7 people is not enough to run end-game content. WTB more members, kthx.

Anne: we are more than 4 months away from endgame content at the earliest. Also, feel free to invite anybody you happen along who seems like a laid back person, this will not be a RAID RAID RAID guild (though raids will happen at some point).

[MiracleManS]

I'll be playing plenty tonight and might even roll another char if I start pushing 20 (I'm going to be playing for like 6 hours tonight, it will happen)

[pigflipper]

You should be able to get 21 or 22 with ease if you are going to be pushing that hard.

[Gate28]

In..I have a 32 priest on Firetree(pvp), but I'll reroll over there to play with yall, need a tank? I'll do whatever you need, I'm quite versatile, although tanking is what I'm good at.

ANYONE IN UK WHO WISHES TO PLAY WITH US:
go into the WoW directory and into the WTF files and find the 'realmlist.wtf' file, delete everything and put in this:

set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
set patchlist us.version.worldofwarcraft.com

save and launch and you should have the U.S. server list.

[Gate28]

Heres my plan: I have a 38 warrior on a different server. I'm going to play nonstop to get him to 55 and roll a death knight on your server to play with you guys.

[Gnome Queen]

You need 10 people to make a guild? That's dumb.

[Annes]

I'll be playing plenty tonight and might even roll another char if I start pushing 20 (I'm going to be playing for like 6 hours tonight, it will happen)

Such lies!

[primesuspect]

You need 10 people to make a guild? That's dumb.

I understand. You're feeling left out, and so you are lashing out at any little thing you can grasp on to. Your feelings of inadequacy due to your loyalty to a game that is getting no attention on Icrontic are causing you to act in a hostile manner towards those that are in with the "clique". You are feeling defensive and angry, but you fear that if you join us, you will have failed yourself somehow.

These things take time to work through. We're here for you.

[primesuspect]

I made <a href="http://thottbot.com/i4253"><font color="#0068FF">Toughened Leather Gloves</font></a> and want to offer them to you guys before I AH them. Anyone want them?

[Gnome Queen]

I'm not feeling left out at all. I am quite content with playing a game that actually has detailed graphics and intelligent players. Also, my game doesn't ruin your life by sucking you into a black pit of despair and raiding.

Don't you have some feverish grinding to do staying out in the forest, killing boars? Don't let me keep you from it, dearest. Those boars aren't just going to kill themselves! :D

[Shorty]

Gash. WOW gash.

Oh I see, you're one of those people who bases all your WoW arguments on an episode of South Park. I understand :)

[pigflipper]

Prime: I thought the same thing upon reading that.

[primesuspect]

I played EQ2 for three days, and found it ugly and boring :( Also, I had to grind in a forest (imagine that!) to level up enough to kill some dude. Sounds just like WoW (and every other MMO ever) To each his own, I guess.

[fatcat]

in

Blood Elf Paladin (Despe)

[TiberiusLazarus]

in

Blood Elf Paladin (Despe)

...Now this surprises me. Maybe I shall join....

[pigflipper]

...Now this surprises me. Maybe I shall join....

DO IT!

(be a priest or 'lock)

[primesuspect]

Icrontic Guild formed.

We have:

Anne (as Nicea)
Prag (as Prag)
Prime (as Kaitolainen)
Pigflipper (as Flixpinger)
Fatcat (as Despe)
Nights (as Caballero)
Kyle (as Kyly)
MiracleMan (as Amorisse)

and our new friends:

Nekromantis
Healinspre

[fatcat]

actually, I changed to Mage tonight.

so fatcat (as Fatcat)

:cheers:

[NiGHTS]

As was said above (but with the incorrect name!), in:

Caballeros, Tauren Hunter

[Annes]

I am tingling. Seriously. Shall we TS it tonight?

[TiberiusLazarus]

Could you list everyone's class and/or what you will need?

[primesuspect]

Here's the thing, we're all relatively low level still. It'll be a while before we "need" something. At this point, I would say "just play whatever you'll have fun with" and we'll make it work. The only class that isn't represented in that list up there is Warlock. We're weak on the magic side.

That said,

Kaitolainen = Tauren Druid
Nicea = Tauren Shaman
Prag = Tauren Warrior
Fatcat = Blood Elf Mage
Caballeros = Tauren Hunter
Kyly = Blood Elf Hunter
Flixpinger = Death Knight
Nekromantis = Undead Rogue
Amorisse = Blood Elf Rogue
Healinspre = I forget Priest

[MiracleManS]

Amorisse = Troll Rogue

No, wish I was, but no. BElf rogue.

[Annes]

No, wish I was, but no. BElf rogue.

If you wish you were, why aren't you? You're not that far in.

[MiracleManS]

If you wish you were, why aren't you? You're not that far in.

Because going through the first 18 levels again will make me murder myself.

[pragtastic]

Agreed Prime, roll whatever you feel like rolling, we'll make it work. If you are desperate for a class suggestion, ranged dps seems to be somewhat lacking at the moment.

Also, http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Tortheldrin&n=Icrontic&p=1

[pigflipper]

*raises his hand*

I am lvl 59 almost 60...

[Koreish]

Oh I see, you're one of those people who bases all your MMO arguments on an episode of South Park. I understand :)

Sounds like me :D. Cept I hated MMOs long before South Park. You kids have fun though.

[Annes]

Prag and I should have out headsets waiting for us when we get home tonight. We'll definitely be on the TS server tonight.

[pigflipper]

I need to get a new headset sometime this week; probably won't be talking on TS (listening though). Ran the old one over with my computer chair last night. oops.

[TiberiusLazarus]

Welp, I did it. Anyone gonna be on in the next couple hours?

[Black Hawk]

/me shakes head in dissapointment

[Annes]

Prag and I will likely be on around or before 8pm.

[TiberiusLazarus]

Nebelwerfer - Undead Warlock

[fatcat]

w00t jimmy is on my continent..I think.

Been so lonely over here, prime had to do something to get me over to his continent to sign the Guild, then I was back home in Silvermoon.

[Buddy J]

Can I be a Night Elf Mohawk?

[Snarkasm]

Maybe Mr. T hacked the game and created a new class. Had you ever thought of that, Mr. Condescending Director Guy?

My name's Mr. T, and I'm a Night Elf Mohawk. What's YOUR game?

[NiGHTS]

My brother and his friend have created characters to join us for the time being.

Pompoms = Tauren Shaman
Gimmeana = Tauren Druid

He's on a trial account as well, but will start paying monthly soon (he's using that 2x boost thing).

[Hawk]

How much does the game cost and what's the charge for the servers per month?

[pragtastic]

I think you can get some "Battle Chest" box thing with original + Burning Crusade expansion for like 35-40 bucks, the monthly fee is $15.

Nights, we'll get your brother and friend in the guild when their accounts go live and you catch us online. Prime, Piggy, and I can all send invites.

[fatcat]

$20 for WoW
$40 for WoW & Burning Crusade expansion, Look for the Battle Chest edition.
$80 for WoW + Burning Crusade + Wrath of the Lich King

$15/month after your first 30 days.

[fatcat]

also, can someone add me back to the icrontic guide, I redid my Paladin

name is: Despe

thx

[fatcat]

Ok, after playing Mage(fatcat) and Paladin(Despe), I've decided to stick with Paladin.

So yea, we got no mages right now.

[TiberiusLazarus]

Any takers on the mage? I might end up making one along with my lock. I liked playing mage before.

[MiracleManS]

Lawl, now fatcat and I both have a paladin...I'll just do whatever spec he doesn't want.

[pragtastic]

Guys, we can have some redundancy in class/spec (in fact its kind of nice). It will be a while before we really need to worry about coordinated specs anyways.

[primesuspect]

Srs. Don't sweat your class choices. Just play and have fun!

You guys are focused so tightly on endgame specs, you're playing Excel Spreadsheet instead of World of Warcraft ;D

[NiGHTS]

I accidentally bought the game last night, I'm not sure what came over me. After I'm finished downloading these patches next month, who do I bug to sign the heralded charter?

[primesuspect]

There is no more charter, we're done. I'll invite you the guild next time I see you online :)

[rolleggroll]

Screw Warlock. Delete Falena my lvl 10 warlock. I re-rolled as a Shaman. I'll probably level up as Enhance but switch over to Resto endgame. Jimmeh can handle teh soulstones.

Eggie teh Orc Shaman. Level 14.
Tailoring.

I think this is the first MMORPG where I did not make a super hot sexy little character. Instead I opted for a manly gruff looking guy. Feels weird that I can't whore myself out for some gold or runs or whatever.

[MiracleManS]

Srs. Don't sweat your class choices. Just play and have fun!

You guys are focused so tightly on endgame specs, you're playing World of ExcelWar SpreadsheetCraft instead of World of Warcraft ;D

Fix'd for ya

[primesuspect]

Kethark has been neglected. He's languishing at 23 (holy priest) and I want to start levelling him again so I can get some mad inscription going. Anyone want to help him with some quests? He's squishy.

[MiracleManS]

I don't see why Anne, Eli, and I can't help out. I'm only 14, but Anne and Eli are pushing mid 20s

[pragtastic]

Ahem, 28 and rested.

[Annes]

I need to do some serious levelling. Does tonight sound good? After I'm done making dinner I would love to down a few beers and play with my boys.

[primesuspect]

I'm up for it. Maybe you guys can help Kethark on some silverpine quests? :D :D

[TiberiusLazarus]

I need to start some power lvling to catch up. I'd like to get 20 soon. Anyone else in the 10-11 range wanna get some killing going? Its boring grinding by myself :D

[Khaos]

Something need doing?

Zug zug!

[NiGHTS]

I'm up for either the Silverpine or 10-11 quests - I'm between both at 14 ATM, but just made my first visit to Silverpine a few days ago.

[pigflipper]

I need to start some power lvling to catch up. I'd like to get 20 soon. Anyone else in the 10-11 range wanna get some killing going? Its boring grinding by myself :D

I can use my DK to level you like crazy.

[fatcat]

I'll play with ya jimmy, I'll be out of BC area soon.
