Warcraft Politics

When I’m redoing the Warcraft noob instances for the 40th time, on the 6th alt, of the 2nd account, I can’t help but consider the political implications of my task at hand. Take the Stockades of Stormwind, for example. The objective is to kill all the prisoners of war in the dungeon. ??? They’ve lost control in the prison and their solution is to massacre the whole lot?

Geneva Convention violations

After this conflict is over, I’m not taking the heat for The Stormwind Stockades Massacre. I was just following orders.

I’m trying a new approach with the professional farmers in Warcraft. We’ve already established that I have no skillz at all with the Asian languages; they have trouble with English. Perhaps one of the European languages could be a middle ground.

Lo Siento

Spanish was a no go.

I can always fall back on the universal language that all humans understand. (No, it’s not love.)

AQ War Effort Rankings

World of Warcraft is now sponsoring its own Ahn’Qiraj war supplies collection census data: Ahn’Qiraj War Effort Rankings. I will presume this data is accurate but I’m naive like that. So far, the best part of this bloated quest is the fighting between the guilds about who is doing all the work and who is not (*cough*my guild*cough*). Whatever, I’m just gonna sit in my lawn chair and wait for the gates to open. Every once in a while, I’ll ride over to the mailbox to get my gold from quest-crap sales, but that’s the extent of my involvement.

Ye Olde Days

From the Warcraft forums, a discussion about the good ole days in Beta — “Cool Beta features that were Removed”. (title edited for clarity because the public schools have, apparently, completely given up.) The beta crowd reminisces about invisibility, Old Ironforge and death-touching Guardians. Additional beta screenshots found here by an industrious Googler. (As with all Warcraft forum links, the thread will expire and disappear into the Internet Trash Bin. READ IT NOW.)
