Woo, Alliance-side, that means excuse to make a spacegoat.

I was going to say I absolutely have to make a gnome in that case!

I'll head over, and I'll try to bring some more of the crew with me :) Would be nice to meet you all in-game - although I agree about healers. Is there something about healers and blogging, or is it just the bloggers I read? The ratio of healer bloggers to non-healer bloggers seems to be about 25:1.

My WoW-account is currently inactive, but I was planning on starting it up again in a few weeks or so, and I'm not all THAT attached to my current characters. I'll be sure to look you guys up once I'm back in-game =)

Now... what race and class shall I make THIS time....

Interesting. And as I'm Oceanic, I would love to join. Although... Alliance? Really?

Unfortunately, my hours online are dictated by real life/family, but a place to chat with fellow bloggers makes this a compelling move...!

P.S. Word Verification: Preen. So right.

Interesting enough, I actually had a Paladin I rolled on Argent Dawn quite some time ago. Took him to level 5 and never looked back. So add one more healer to the list of folks on there.

I rolled up my little alt and joined the party. :) Look for Otavis, space-shaman in a blog-guild near you.

PS I like the rank names!

That was Rhii, from isheepthings.com immediately above, btw... I accidentally saved it before putting in my name. Oospie.

Psss, you asked people to join /simpleabstractnoun. SimPle instead of sinGle.

@Crucifer

Heh, well it had to be either Alliance or Horde. US is Alliance because the EU is Horde (due to Tam already having some hordie toons) and we figured it would be good to balance it out.

@latusthegoat

GOOD CALL.

Woo! Lovely way to justify a new alt, more chatter, and (hopefully) kick-start me into proper blogging again!

Tomorrow I'll hop over and start something.. not that I know quite what yet.

!
!
!

will semi inactive, mostly lurking commenter be welcome? I even have a story in mind for my newest space goat (excuse to roll another alt, stalk people I love to read in real time and try role playing? bingo :) )

oh and she's a warrior, going to be tanking (if she levels O-O)

/shy
/anxious
/hopeful

@Leah

YES PLEASE JOIN US!

So far we've got lots of bloggers, but not nearly enough readers! I'm really hopeful that more readers will join (even the lurking kind)!

Ahaha! I didn't think of the, err, jugs angle. I was thinking entirely innocently of a bunch of friends clinking their tankards together in the warm cosy atmosphere of the Pink Pigtail Inn.

Good luck to the American chapter.

And I'll have you know that unlike you Stateside morons and slackers, we hardcore Europeans PWNED BOARS IN GREYS! So there.

Hmmmm, handy justification for rolling a new alt, and maybe getting back in the thick of things...

I'm not a healy blogger and I read you!
Some of your readers enjoy your writing style :)

I can't believe we're only doing this now!

I'm totally in. I'll throw in a ~ 30ish hunter that I have no idea what I'm doing with. :D Woot for a no-pressure environment!

Thank you so much for doing this! I am a humble lurker but it was fun interacting with you guys, and I look forward to more. Good motivation to de-lurk and join in the fun :)

Totally going to make a Frost Mage named Freezo. I'll try to find people online whenever possible!

Aww, someone already pointed out your spelling mistake on the channel name. Oh well, I'll have to keep looking for other things to make fun of you for.

Also, thanks for setting up this US chapter, I had fun talking with all of you last night.

Definitely rolling a toon tonight. Will be fun to start from the ground up again and remember what it was like to not be able to afford anything.

Can't wait to see everyone!

So..... ummmm this whole "you must wear pants" thing is just a suggestion right?

Don't hate on my tanking style :P

I'm in! Now I just have to decide what class and name to go with...

I'm so in. Time to roll a baby pally and try my hand at tanking.

Given my semi-retirement from raiding, this could be a nice diversion. Forreststump Furry Edition incoming?

...though the thought of being cash-strapped bothers me. /twitch Roll a toon on a server where I do have a small cash reserve on the Alliance side, then transfer at level 10? /twitch Maybe. But what about heirlooms?? /twitch I dunno. /twitch

Occasional OCD tendencies now on display... /twitch

Okay. I'll do it.

Don't have a lot of free wow-time, but I'll be there on a Hine-alt tonight!

Missy?
I think you meant /simpleabtractnoun ?
In your post it says /simgleabtractnoun.

See ya soon!

Er, I misspelled my comment too!!!! ;)

Singleabstractnoun, not Simgle.... or Simple...
*sigh*

What's really funny is that I rolled a Balthazario on AD without thinking about the EU/US thing, so I could pester Tam.
I logged in last night, and thanks for the inv!

level 3 w00t!

very cool thing to be doing.

THANKS!

I plopped a dk over there... already have a couple unguilded alts I may join up if that's cool.

I am definitely rolling a character on AD tonight! I've tried blogging, and really want to continue to do so, but I find it hard to keep momentum, so maybe some of the blogging awesomeness will rub off hehe.. =)

I've been wanting a chance to branch out in the game, this looks like exactly what I've been looking for.

Is the Bubbles allowed to be a space goat DK? XD

AD is in my main guild's battle group, maybe weacn run into some of my guildies...AND fellow bloggers XD

I came, I saw, I got to level 2 :)

Is there anywhere we can link the blogs of all the members. As I logged at at 1.15am (NZ time) I promised to go and read the blogs of the members - but now at work I realise I havent a clue what the blogs were.

Silly Breevok!

People have been putting their blog URLs in their personal note field to avoid that problem Breevok :)

Argent Dawn US is currently full, especially on the Alliance side.

Altoholic can be found on Horde of AD US and has no room on his accounts to make an Alliance toon.

I have to say I like the idea, I like the chance to roll an Alliance character where there will be motivation to play, I love the fact that I will not be a guild master/officer/raider/raid leader, and perhaps I may even enjoy a RP server.

I may have to delete my Paladin though because I rolled him and never claimed his free little pets, but at least I know I have my name.

Kattastrophe here count me in what a great idea, Balthazario my partner in crime is already a guildy so I'll pop on tonight and roll me a toon too.

TTFN
Katta

Sounds like fun! I'll be in and have made a hunter, priest, and druid so far. I can dual box two, but deciding which two is the hard part. =D

Oh man this is a great idea I should totally roll like a dorf warrior or something!

I am totally in on this. Steelspark the gnome warrior says hi.

Ok I came and rolled up a Paladin. Then I decided instead to go hunter because:

a) I already have a paladin and at end level so I fear I may burn out doing it all over again.

b) hunters have the odd ability to speed-level up therefore I have the good chance of actually getting somewhere with the few hours I have.

Looking at our guild roster last night it seems we're picking up a good number of classes - but druids seem to be few in number...

@ Nazaniel

Indeed Indeed - as have I.

Alas some of us arent fortunate to have access to WoW at work, where I spend breaks reading blogs.

Therefore info in your personal note is of no use to me :)

Thus my request

Last night was raid night for me (and this night too) but I'm definitely going to drop by and meet some people, it sounds like a blast. Thanks for putting this together!

Now here's a thought for the future. SingleAbstractNoun AD(US/EU) both get first and second kill of Deathwhisper.

Last night was awesome, amazing turn-out guys. Had fun talking to you all.

Cringe...cringe....for the ALLIANCE....oh god I said it... /hide

I meant Deathwing.....bleh proofreading.

/facepalm

I was seriously considering joining up when Tam mentioned it, until I found out that it was alliance. I just can't bring myself to roll and alli ever, ever, ever again.

I LOVE this! Already rolled an alt and can't wait to play more.

Cool!
I'll drop by later tonight probably just to check it out!

I think I'll make a char there this weekend...

If this was Cataclysm I'd now have an excuse to roll a worgen somewhere... but now I'll need to come up with a good character concept that fits an existing Alliance race. I just can't roll characters without a concept. >_>

Up until now my AD toons have been Horde. This will be a great excuse to roll Alliance.

I'll be a coming this weekend! I'm starting from lvl 1, so I'm totally up for Hogger raids!

Awesome first major night in guild. And to all those saying "I'll never roll Ally." Get over it! It's a game and it's immature to continue to act so childish over fantasy races in a game! /rant! Sorry sick of immaturity over races in this game. If you can't play both sides I lose all respect for you.

And yes SAN is rocking AD! Some server kills would be fun, but either way it's nice to have people who are a bit chatty unlike so many other guilds.

@Aleanathem
People have reasons for their choices and they aren't always petty.

i've only just discovered WoW blogging this past week but you guys seem wicked nice (what? me? from near boston? NAH!) and the whole no pressure environment is too awesome to pass up.

::rolls another spacegoat::

:(

Well, I didn't want to renew my WoW account before seeing if this place was as tempting as it made renewing seem to me.

And TBH, NOTHING has tempted me before this came along.

So I made me a trial account (Squeekachu) and joined the channel and...

You do not have permission to speek.

*invited by Kaelei* *accept* You do not have permission to do dat.

*tries to explain* You are a trial account and you can only tell to people who have friended you.

I already knew about the last, but the first two?

Stupid, very stupid imo. -_-

Looks like I won't be resubbing. :(

I hope you guys have lots of chatty fun though!

@Zan
Any reason over a faction in a fantasy game is petty. It's a game. I'm sorry, but there is no decent excuse that can be made except either not being interested or too many toons already. Most others just don't have any substance and are petty. And I have little respect for anyone without a decent excuse that uses "It's Alliance!" or "It's Horde!" as an excuse.

Joined the guild tonight on the US realm, as I'm in oz.

Great little project.

First time on the alliance side, and it's freaky. Not least because my dwarf hunter is a Hemet Nesingwary look-alike. See you there!

Tempting!

"Any reason over a faction in a fantasy game is petty. It's a game."

I could understand that reasoning if the guild wasn't on an RP server. But if someone genuinely doesn't enjoy playing Ally races and now would have to do that plus mildly roleplay those unliked races then yes, it's a big deal.

I'll join if you guys once i get WoW downloaded onto my computer. probably tomorrow. Maybe I'll xfer a toon /shrug
