I've become an Alien!

So... due to some schedule changes, Deathpaw and I have had to raid with a new guild. We chose the guild, Alienation, because we have friends in it. We've raided a bit with our new guild and I must say I enjoy it a lot. We do 25-mans on Tuesday and Wednesday and a 10-man on Thursday and Friday.

So far I have been able to get a token to upgrade my gear. I'm eying a couple more items from 25-man, but need to rack up some more DKP before I can have a chance to bid on them. Our 10-man group is focused on downing the Lich King. We're having the raid ID locked, so we can keep attempting him until we kill him. That will open up our 10-man group to doing heroic Mode fights so we can get our special Frostwyrm mounts.

On a real life note, I'm trying to get a regular walking schedule going for Fox and I. Hopefully, we'll be able to get back into shape again. ^^

Bah... updates updates!

After working our asses off and switching roles around a little, I am pleased to announce the death of the Blood Council!

We switched from a Warlock tank to Deathpaw (DK) tanking Prince Keleseth. It seemed to work very well and the following week we one-shot them .^^

We are having a bit of guild drama though. We've had two people leave the guild recently. Speaking with them further it seems it boils down to how we raid. From leadership to policies. I understand progression can be frustrating, but we have to stay together for the good of the guild. DP and I have been dismissing requests to join other, more progressed guilds. If other guildmates break under the stress of progression, we may lose more.

We currently run with 10 core raiders and no skilled temp raiders to fill the slots for tired or missing people. I have proposed several ideas to our raid leader, Spontain, and interim Guild Master, Archidamus... but... *sighs* At times I feel ignored, and so does DP. I long for the days where we seemed closer to the guild. I simply don't know what changed.

Well... Here's to hoping!!
