Thanks to Syd from World of Matticus for inspiring this poll.

What do you mean WHERE’S the poll? Look over to you’re right there missy! (Or mister… not being gender-biased here, honest!).

So I guess you want to know why I rolled a boomkek, right?

Well, I like being a caster - the one thing you may (or may not) have noticed is that my high level characters are all ranged. Pew pewing is what I am good at, and I don’t like getting all dirty and messy like some people might.

I love the look of the moonkin. I mean come on - everyone and their mum was feral while leveling back in the day. I was the odd one out. The amount of people who never knew it was possible to BE a boomkek back when the spell first came out was insane. What can I say - I like the attention!

Also… MOONFIRE! Moonfire, IS, wrath - oh look, it crits… mob dies. Wahahahahaaaaa. Sorry, ahem, should control myself, right?

*cough*

So anyway, I guess I chose a boomkek initially because it just fitted with my playstyle to be honest. That’s it. Pretty boring… guess I should go play for a bit now so I’ll actually have something else to blog about tomorrow.

Edited to add: The DANCE! The dance! How could I not mention the dance! I love the boomkek dance!

Ahem, that is all.

Ahem, I meant *never*, obviously… but come on, this shared topic comes from the lovely gun lovin dwarf chick Breana, co-host of the Twisted Nether Blogcast - you know I can’t resist stupid lil puns n such! Or do you… oh well, I do, so there!

Aaaanyhoo, like I was saying, Bre’s posted an awesome shared topic over at the Blog Azeroth forums, and here it is -

Recently, in BA chat, I spoke about my guild progress and how we killed Mags the week before. Then the conversation turned to getting the “Champion of the Naruu” title. Which got me thinking, I actually can do that quest and get that title! Something I thought I would never see, let alone attain, was now an achievable goal.

What about you? Think back.

What content or goals did you think you would never see, and what have you done? What has surprised you the most? Where do you see yourself in 6 months, after the launch of Lich?

Wow, well… where to begin?

I remember thinking I’d never hit level 60. It took me 11 months to get there - ELEVEN MONTHS! In my defence though, I was cooking and then caring for a cute lil dude who I named my mage after.

I remember thinking I’d never get to see the inside of Molten Core - then we downed Raggy baby!

I remember thinking I’d never get to raid as anything but an innervate biatch. LOOK AT ME NOW!!

I remember thinking that *if* I was lucky I might, just maybe, manage to see some of SSC and TK. Well, I still haven’t seen them, but this week it was me and Archi. I was bouncing around in my seat like a hyperactive 3 year old during the whole 3.5 hour raid! Much in the way MY hyperactive 3 year old does if I ever let him near my baby (that would be the Mac folks, not his younger sibling).

A year ago I had no idea blogs existed, nevermind blogs that were solely about WoW - who knew I’d end up writing one myself, and become part of an awesome bloggy community?

I never would have dreamed that I’d leave my guildies (and husband!) in The Black Citadel, but I did. Not only that, but I ended up changing servers on top of it all, and this occured - you guessed it, because of the bloggy friends I made.

In 6 months time… I see myself having killed that git Archi, hopefully having done most (if not all) of BT, and maybe a little of Sunwell before Wrath came out. I don’t see myself getting a BETA key for wrath, but oh.. OH HOW I WANT ONE!!! (Hai, if you get one and don’t want it… feel free to give it to meee - I will love you forever, just don’t tell the hubby!!).

Once WoLTK is released? I actually have some sort of a plan this time around. I want to be one of those guildies who levels up relatively quickly. Not that I don’t want to miss what’s actually going on in the quests and such, but I would love to be one of those players in the core group who are first to take on the new content, rather than slip to the end of the queue like I did previously, both pre- and post- TBC.

One way or another, I definitely still intend to be playing wow… and to be in my current guild… and my Boomkin will always, always be my main lady, even though she doesn’t exactly look like a lady with all those feathers n… stuff… anyway… you’re not going to see this change into a death knight blog anytime soon!
