See you at CYPHAN!

CYPHAN? Sounds like a venereal disease, doesn’t it? I assure you, it’s not. It’s a new Midwest Scifi/fantasy convention for costumers, collectors, gamers and fans located in the Chicago Suburbs, and it’s happening this weekend.
One of the weekend seminars is a World of Warcraft discussion, and a last minute change of plans (or desperation) has planted yours truly as one of the speakers. It’s nothing hardcore, raiding or even healing related – more of an intro to the game for new and newer players. We’ll be covering such things as …


Healing Drunk & Pantsless on “/2″

Just a quick update to let everyone know we’ll be LIVE on the Slash 2 podcast this Friday, 4/16/10 at 7 central. I’m sure it will be lots of incoherent fun, so make sure you stop by and join us in the live chatroom.
These guys are a blast, so check out their previous shows if you haven’t!


A Dark Nemesis Gratuitous Self-Congratulatory Post

Before I dive into this brief post/update, one thing we did learn about blogging is that your reader is smart enough to know- so don’t try to fool them: When you are doing gratuitous self-promotion, tell them. Consider yourself notified.
That being said, we’ve been busy. We completed Glory of the Icecrown Raider on 10-Mans and got our very sexy Frost Wyrms. They’re almost as frigid as Derevka, but way cooler.
Would you say Derevka is riding a boner?


Big News- Power Word: Fail!

Many of you may be familiar with the Podcast, Raid Warning. If you aren’t, you really should listen to them. It is a great laid-back, and informative podcast. They have decided to do a Priest Roundtable – and they have decided to take both Avalonna and Derevka on… boy do they not know what they have coming.
Holy to  Discipline to Shadow– PVP to Hardcore End Game Raiding. It all will be discussed, and I am sure there will be some joking and good times had as well.


New Theme, New Host, New Look!

The blog has undergone some major plastic surgery!
We commissioned Lassirra from The Hunter’s Mark to create us this fantastic theme and she did a great job. She also helped me set it up. With the WP platform we have a lot more tools available to us that will help make the blog better, easier to read, and easier to find the articles you want to read.
Feel free to make comments on this post about what you think about it. We’ll be making a few changes here and there, so stay …


UI In Action Video and Upcoming Blog News!!

First I want to share a video I made this past weekend after I finally decided to go out and buy Sony Vegas. (I got a steal on Vegas 8.0 at Best Buy) that shows off my UI in action, as well as plugs Avalonna and my guild. (We are looking for a Holy Priest, Holy Pally, and a Hunter!) I hope to have my UI uploaded and available on the site here, as well as over at WoWInterface later this week!
