Have you done your holiday shopping? I haven’t because I’m a slacker like that. :)

To be honest, I’ve put my uber-gnome on the back burner for the time being since most of my guildies and I have been too busy for raiding this past week and with no new content recently I just haven’t felt the desire to push Vorya through the rigors of a pug raid. Instead, I decided to work on a bunch of my alts. My in-laws have a slower connection than I do at home so the best thing for me was to simply hit up battlegrounds. Ok and yesterday I leveled my DK alt from 64-66 in just a few hours in Outlands. Woot!

Battleground leveling is now feasible, which is really nice. It’s not fast, but it sure can be a nice break from quest grinding, not to mention if you stick with it constantly you can get some decent blue rewards every 10 levels or so! Would someone just kick that twink who only drops the flag in the last minute to avoid xp? Please?

So I promised to write up a little bit more about my toon so here goes. According to WoW, I’ve been playing Vorya for about 86 days now. I wondered when I first saw that because in real time it’s been quite a bit longer than that. Then it dawned on me that it only counts time logged in…anyway, he started off as a fire spec about halfway through TBC expansion, which meant that I barely got my feet wet in Karazhan before Wrath came out. With the advent of Wrath, I quickly became enamored with frostfire bolt, and have stuck with it and it’s spec ever since. You’ll notice, however, that I elect to take blastwave and dragon’s breath. I love those spells too much to give them up. I have dual spec’d into a pvp frost set up, although I don’t mind switching that up every now and then to try something different. I don’t pvp a whole lot, although I’ve recently been using battlegrounds to help level my many alts. I think that’s all I have to say about that for right now, though I wouldn’t mind giving more details about anything regarding that, at a later date.

I did get to watch most of the MLG WoW tournament this past weekend via their live stream (go go HD!). If you’ve never watched amazingly skilled players duke it out arena style within the WoW setting, you’re missing something special. I suck at arena, but I have fun playing it anyway when I get the chance. Watching some amazing battles was a ton of fun though. Perhaps the most interesting story of the weekend for me, was the RMP (that’s rogue/mage/priest, in case you didn’t know) team of Button Bashers shutting down Check Six running a beast rush set up (BM Hunter/Enh Shammy/Holy Pally) designed to beat the RMP team! Hats off to them!

Okay, that’s about it for today, ciao!
