Horde raids Ironforge!

In order to celebrate Grumps dinging level 70, we decided to have a bit of a celebration in Stormwind. Whilst acquiring the grog from Stormwind, there were a few people on trade talking about Ironforge being raided. Although skeptical, I decided to head off there anyways. Upon arrival, I was quite shocked to find several horde corpses in front of the auction house! Is it true if one faction wipes the opposing faction's city, everyone has to start their characters again? Or is this a crazy rumour?

Pink Elephants. No - Seriously!

That's right folks! You've seen it here! Come to Allerian Stronghold, and see the Pink Elekks!

Apparently a reference to a sequence in the Dumbo movie, where Dumbo and Timothy Mouse accidentaly become drunk and begin hallucinating and seeing pink elephants. You too can now experience this terrifying drunken phenomenon!

If someone has recently completed the quest 'The Final Code', there is a barrel of wine placed outside one of the buildings opposite the inn, which will give you 5 free bottles of booze. Three drinks of this or one 'extremely potent' alcoholic drink will allow you to see the Pink Elekks.


Just don't forget to have your picture taken!

Servers + Fail = Chaos on Onyxia

Last night all the servers crapped out big time, so what is there do to when you get booted from your main? Find a server that still works and roll a n00b!

So that's what a helluva lot of people did. The only server Remmieh, Grumps, Brocy & myself could find working was Onyxia! I rolled a spunky little Priest called Hamsterdied, and set off looking for trouble!

...And we found it, in Goldshire in the form of a number of Lvl 70 and low-lvl Horde!



Grumps was clever enough to video the whole event, so hopefully he will have that up soon :D

WoW: WotLK - Achievements

Recently announced by Blizzard is the inclusion of achievements in the upcoming expansion to WoW, Wrath of the Lich King. These achievements will be applied retroactively, I.e. they will not exclusively apply to WotLK content. They are also expandable, so more achievements will probably be added with each content patch.

Quickly skimming the article from Blizzard it can be seen that the initial achievements that will come with the new expansion will be fairly comprehensive - "World of Warcraft's achievements system will launch with more than 500 individual achievements...from the purely whimsical to the truly epic"
