The Carnival of Gamers

They're Here.You kids are gonna have to keep it down out here today. Uncle Foton’s feeling a little weak and until he takes a nap at the office, he doesn’t want to hear any roughhousing or loud arguments.

Fortunately, today is the November Carnival of Gamers with lots of stuff to keep you entertained.

The Carnival of Gamers is a nomadic monthly showcase of articles by gamers, for gamers and about gamers. Next month’s host will be Surly Gamers.

When you’ve finished consuming the Carnival, go read the U.S. Constitution. There’ll be a quiz tomorrow.

The Perfect MMO City

Pamela, level 4 candy corn of the Darrowmere Warcraft realm, asked for player opinions on which capital city is the most confusing. She nominated Thunder Bluff, and I’m inclined to agree — it’s top-notch in potential danger from an untimely fall, say for example, you went there for the fire festival and had to steal the horde flame for a quest and you accidentally backed up too far and splattered your level 60 rogue self all over the grass below. But let’s be honest here, all the capital cities are annoying in their own way.

In five minutes time, I designed the perfect Warcraft city (indeed, the perfect MMO city) AND created a professional graphic to illustrate.

Perfect WoW City

It’s everything I need and nothing I don’t want.
