New Rule – MOAR GEMS

If I’m a transmute master alchemist and I transmute an epic gem, I want a chance to proc multiple gems dammit! I didn’t complete some trivial task way back in the Burning Crusade just so I could be disappointed day after day after day by gems that weren’t even conceived of back then failing to spawn in breathtakingly high numbers now.

New Rule – Spend your offseason with Single Abstract Noun

After the smoke has cleared and you’ve participated in Blizzard’s nonsensical plotline of slapping a bucket of doom on Bolvar’s head, give serious thought to joining in on the antics of Single Abstract Noun. You already know what this is because every WoW player with a blog has been talking about it of late. So once your super srs bsns has concluded and you’re free from the rigors of a raiding schedule, well you’ll simply have no excuse not to come hang out with the cool kids.

And speaking of offseasons…

New Rule – Keep it together

The end is in sight. A trifling handful of bosses are all that’s left. This raiding season we have, along with the rest of the world, trounced Naxxramas thoroughly. We have, like most of the world, routed the troops of Yogg-Saron. We have, like everyone else in the world, facerolled ToC with our eyes closed.

This is the end of the season. Only a trifling handful of games left before besting Arthas and then resting on our laurels. After that, the glorious offseason begins. An offseason filled with whatever the hell we want. Excursions into Ulduar for Algalon’s sparkly blood, whimsical romps through AQxx to punch Yogg’s family members in their tentacled faces, spontaneous pickup groups for ransacking Icecrown for gear for our alts and anything else that strikes our fancy.

However, it isn’t the offseason yet. There are still games (however few) to play. We need to take care that our focus remains clear. We set out to play a full season and to have it all unravel now would be a terrible disgrace.

Keep practicing, keep pushing yourself. Do better. Heal more, endure more, hurt things more. Don’t stand in that, don’t stand near that, do stand next to me, don’t stand next to her, shout more at hunters, keep withholding heals from the rogues, BE BETTER.

Remember though, you are part of a team. Frustrations and misunderstandings are common but right now, you’re a team. Now is not the time for infighting; its far too late for that.

It won’t be long now, just keep it together.
