Things to do in Providence when your...

Soooooo...a Joyful Mabon to all those who mark the turning of the Wheel of the Year.

But, I'm making this post because a few of you expressed interest in joining me and Spooky in World of Warcraft. And I discovered this morning that I goofed when I set up my account last Saturday. You may recall, I was in the throes of tooth pain and Oxycodon. Instead of choosing an RP server, I chose a PVP server (Anub'arak). And we didn't catch it until this ayem, which might say something about the usefulness of WoW for actual rp. Anyway, despite the fact that my character, Merricat, was LvL 19+, and Spooky's, Syllahr, was 17+, tonight we started we've both started over on an RP server — Cenarian Circle. My new character looks exactly the same, but is named Mithwen, instead of Merricat, as I was in the mood for Sindarin (Mith = "grey" + the suffix wen, "maiden"). Spooky is still Syllahr, and she says I shouldn't be Tolkien's bitch. But I am. Anyway, as I write this, I've made it back up to Lvl. 8 (since 9:00 pm). And that's the server where we'll be, if anyone is looking for us. Apologies for any inconvenience.

I'll make a real post tomorrow.

Just confirming, you're still a night elf right? In which case I'll still need to make a horde character to farm dalaran robes for my mages :D

I'm almost tempted now to get two more copies.

Indeed. That part didn't change..

I'm pleased to hear you two didn't give up. (As if you COULD!)

I shall re-roll the Huntress, Sopphi, when the servers come back up.

alrighty then, I'll transfer my druid from a pvp server on over, loaded with traveler backpacks. So if you get six 16slot bags in the mail, friend me :D. Course, I need to think of a better name for her than moonwisper, and definitely not draconic.

i have no clue how to edit my replies...hence the tendency to reply to my own replies with more info...

but 3 of those bags are for spooky :P

also, if I remember right, you're a warrior, but I didn't catch spooky's class. Should I pick up a nice wand for her? Hmm...is there anything else that would go nicely into a care package?

She's a Druid. I'm sure she wouldn't mind. She'll be especially happy about those bags.

At the announcement the servers would be down, I could here the plaintive cries of ten million nerds circling the globe.

Indeed. Damned spiders and Grell were not providing for me last night.

And to you!

OK, I'll re-do my character, Bloodlovely, on the new server. Also, we should get a list of everyone's character names. Oh, and damn you guys for getting me back into WoW. Grins.

oh, and as luck would have it, you picked a server and faction one of my other SL friends is on, and I'm going to try and recruit another one on over.

ok, names are confirmed, and the druid was 34... I bumped into Bloodlovely on my way, sorry it was just a wave and buff, I was only on at that moment to pass bags.

Pssh, a Sindarin-named WoW character? Why not have done with it all and just play Lord of the Rings Online? Eh? Eh?

Er...if you do, I hear...um....Elendilmir is a lovely server.

Happy belated Equinox. All things being in their place now, let the darkness grow.

Pssh, a Sindarin-named WoW character? Why not have done with it all and just play Lord of the Rings Online? Eh? Eh?

Because:

a) As I said, it was only more or less by chance, and in a fit of boredom, that I started WoW.

b) Having done so, and found that I like it well enough, I have now invested in it quite a lot of hours. I never expected to play more than a few hours, at most.

c) I even have a paid account now. So, here I stay.

Backwards up the mossy glen
Turned and trooped the goblin men,
With their shrill repeated cry,
"Come buy, come buy."


Well then there's no hope for you!

Nope. I'm screwed.
