I’ve created the addon CritterTalk for a competition where I can win an ingame kite. Might not sound like much but since I am a vanitypet collector and that vanitypet only are available through the trading card game I’m quite hopeful I’ll get it.

Just go to this >> link <<, download the addon and leave a comment and perhaps rate it. It’s ultimatly up to the judges if I’ll win a kite or not but having a few positive remarks can’t hurt.

Let’s start with the new part of the webpage and then talk a bit about what is new in the patch.

At the adress http://wow.blogaloo.com/profiles/index.php you’ll find our own little version of the Armory. This isn’t automatically updated but it has some wonderful features that can help the guild a lot.

If you have a crafting proffession you can now updated your entire list of craftable items to be searched, compared to others and even to see what recepies/patterns you are missing.

If you are on a group quest you can see if someone else are on the same quest.

If you want to get a raid going you can see who has the proper stats to come along.

You can create a nice forum signature based on your data like the one below.

To make gathering and uploading data a piece of cake I’ve compiled a basic addon package wich includes two programs. One for keeping your addons updated (wowmatrix) and one to automate the uploading of your character data (uniuploader). The later has all settings included from start to make it as easy as possible and instructions on how to get it all to work is included in a readme.txt file.

So what is new in the patch?

To view the full patch notes, go here: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/patchnotes/

One of the biggest changes is the ability for lvl 30 characters to learn how to ride for merely 35 gold. This will speed up getting to lvl 60 even more, showing just how badly blizzard wants everyone to reach lvl 70 before WoTLK.

Another major addition is that Haris Pilton now sports a wooping 22 slot bag that you can buy for measly 1200 Gold. Blizz hoping to drain some gold from the system before WoTLK perhaps?

I was pleased to see that they actually listened to the forum posts about the broken battleground system and has now changed the time you get to accept a battleground from 2 minutes to 1 minute and 20 sec.

Tailors can now make a 28 slot herb bag!!! Big upgrade for herbalists.

The help system is made a great deal easier, so get started reporting those walljumpers in Arathi Basin and request your lost items back…will this mean longer waiting lines since more people will actually understand exactly how to get in contact with customer support?

Read through the full patch notes to see if your class or tradeskill is affected by the patch.

Lyrics:

Gather ’round, ye lads and lasses, set ye for a while
And hearken to me mournful tale about the Emerald Isle
Let’s all raise our glasses high to friends and family gone
And lift our voices in another Irish drinking song

Consumption took me mother and me father got the pox
Me brother drank the whiskey ’til he wound up in a box
My other brother in the Troubles met with his demise
My sister has forever closed her smiling Irish eyes

CHORUS:
Now everybody’s died
So until our tears are dried
We’ll drink and drink and drink and drink,
and then we’ll drink some more
We’ll dance and sing and fight
until the early morning light
Then we’ll throw up, pass out, wake up, and then go drinking once again

Kenny was killed in Kilkenny and Claire, she died in Clare
Tip from Tipperary died out in the Derry air
Shannon jumped into the River Shannon back in June
Ernie fell into the Erne, and Tom is in the Toome

“Cleanliness is godliness” me Uncle Pat would sing
He broke his neck a’slippin’ on a bar of Irish Spring
O’Grady, he was 80 though his bride was just a pup
He died upon the honeymoon when she got his Irish up

CHORUS

Joe Murphy fought with Reilly near the banks of old Doneen
He took out his shillelagh and he stabbed him in the spleen
Crazy Uncle Mike believed he was a leprechaun -
In fact he’s just a leper, and his arms and legs are gone

When Timmy Johnson broke his neck it was a cryin’ shame
He wasn’t really Irish, but he went to Notre Dame
McNamara crossed the street and by a bus was hit
But he was just a Scotsman, so nobody gave a (ARRGHH)

CHORUS

Me drunken Uncle Brendan tried to drive home from the bar
The road rose up to meet him when he fell out of his car
Irony was what befell my great-grand Uncle Sam
He choked upon the very last potato in the land

Conor lived in Ulster town, he used to smuggle arms
Until the British killed him and cut off his lucky charms
And dear old Father Flanagan, who left the lord’s employ
Drunk on sacramental wine, beneath the altar boy

CHORUS

(slower)

Someday soon I’ll leave this world of pain and toil and sin
The Lord will take me by the hand to join all of me kin
Me only wish is when the Savior comes for me and you

(a tempo)

He kills the cast of Riverdance, and Michael Flatley too

CHORUS (2x)

This comic strip was inspired by a quote by the mage Anomalia. We all had a big laugh over it. This wouldn’t have been anything to laugh about if Anomalia was a new player but seeing as he is the leader of our guild and his mage is a lvl 70, arena ready, geared up frost mage it was a bit fun indeed.

If you have any fun quotes or situations that you think deserves to be remembered and shared, let me know and I’ll make a comic strip about it. If I have a good picture of the characters involved I will use those instead of the dwarf.

This is a musical theme I created a while back to use in a machinima that I never did. What do you guys think? Would it fit as a musical theme in a WoW movie?
