Thursday WoW Update

It’s not really Thursday, and it’s been a few weeks coming, but here’s your update for what’s been going on in the World of Warcraft.

Well, Nothing has been going on with either Grotesk or Tsugutoshi. Neither character has moved an inch from my last update. Am I surprised? No, I’m not. There are times when people can’t get around to their characters and some of us don’t use those sparing free hours in the day to get anywhere on our characters.

If I listed all my characters they would have made the same amount of progress. Honestly most of the time that I get spurred on to play it’s by my brother or this guy, so it’s no wonder there’s been so much inactivity as of late.

Next is Steakems who I know is still playing the game, especially when the expansion is mentioned but this character has been absolutely stagnant…

So stagnant in fact that even though at one point I am sure there was a 20 level difference between characters Rombus actually passed him up. Sure it’s only by one level, but it’s still the first time. He’s also passed up all my alts, and he’s kind of in his own territory now.

Finally, Remana has been steadily gaining levels, but due to a really cheap DSL package it took something like 2 or 3 days to download the patch. Sure the latest patch was a big one weighing in at 1.2 GB’s, but that’s some cheap DSL. It usually takes me about 4 hours to download the same patch, and that’s with some sort of problem with the Blizzard Downloader telling me I’m behind a firewall.

I’ll try and be a little more consistent and maybe play myself so I have something to talk about.

Trip to Columbus

I took a trip to Columbus to see Rick and Melissa. Tim and Renee came with. I drove and was getting about 36 mpg according to my car, so it’s really a good car to take on trips. Traffic wasn’t too bad, but then again it’s no where close to being a holiday and I don’t believe shopping season is really in swing yet.

We went to BD’s Mongolian Barbeque. That place is always good. Found out that Tim likes things a bit hotter than everyone else. How hot? Hot enough that you can feel it in your sinuses. Rick and Melissa paid for Tim’s dinner and Renee and I pitched in for a card to GameStop, so Tim got a bit of a surprise, since his birthday was a week ago. We didn’t forget, we just had to postpone it.

We went to Damon Busters next, which is kind of fun. I mean, it’s usually a lot of fun, but the basketball game was busted for most of the night, so we didn’t all get to play. When we did get to play I did well, but Tim beat me twice by one basket. We all played the trivia game, this game where you have to roll tokens down a ramp and get points, and skeet ball, it was fun. We won a bunch of tickets, but there wasn’t anything really that interesting to get, so we just had them put the tickets on a card and we left.

We went back and played Rock Band for a bit, but I was feeling a bit under the weather so we decided to head home a bit earlier than we had originally intended.
