The WoW or Gold Brainstormz podcast is based on a hardcore mindset that stems from being into multiple competitive hobbies for 2 decades as well having some very interesting experiences through gaming. Since becoming a father of 3 my blocks of time to play have been decreased, but my mentality has h…
The backlog of recordings keeps growing. Life is very busy and I'm prioritizing other things than gaming and podcasting I'm grateful that I was able to help chip in @ Skylander when he wanted a gaming rig a couple of years back. The reason I mention that is because of this; Lil' Grayz will have his laptop coming in next week. That will be a huge day for Lil' Grayz! I discuss my new position at work (1 month has passed), things I've done and learned. Skills I've learned in the past that help me in the present. I mention the importance of accountability, adaptability, integrity, being respectful, leadership skills, being a teamplayer, listening intently, being sincere, handling complaints and more Honorable mention to Atmosphere in 2023:Atmosphere (the hip hop band) are finally getting closer to being back to their old levels It's been about two decades since I enjoyed their albums a LOT! I'm not there yet but I have been bumping the Bigger Pictures (Youtube link) song nonstop lately! Not had that happen for soooo many years with Atmosphere although they release albums very regularly. Slug's voice is unique so distorted sound efx is NOT my cup of tea + Slug's choices @ beats that blew as well. I digress On that Atmosphere note, Slug's journey is very similar to mine with my different projects. This podcast project actually highlights that more than anything else since it's the longest running project that is out there and official to the public Those that get the comparison get it get it, those that don't don't. And it's fine. What's important is that I do and understand why that is. Long story short; Our creations mirror our lives and the way we view and do things as the decades roll by in life. What a beautiful and yet crazy journey! Lastly, no other musicians have affected me the way Atmosphere have. But I also experience music entirely different from most people which it's why it is so important to my being. Even if it can be years without me listening to anything depending on which flow my life is in and where my focus is at Check out these Interviews with Slug and Ant respectively. Both videos are two-parters Slug pt 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpQ2mWARQ9s Slug pt 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ga4-Fi3FVlE&t Ant pt 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQNd7mVxGeU Ant pt 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GN8gdzW38uU&t This episode was recorded during Dragonflight Watch my Twitch vods for the full Grayz experience Thanks for listening and take care out there I Love You!

I make some stuff public here and there https://www.twitch.tv/Grayzbdf I stream randomly depending on life and energy. I prefer using my mic but sometimes I just hit a playlist and go silent. More probable to happen if I PVP where the action is the action and I don't feel a need to speak. If Levelling using my mic feels mandatory cause of how I function as a learner and entertainer. I have 10 years of hardcore acting experience on stage (within Theatre) https://kick.com/grayzbdf I'm inactive there but I created an account
My AWC mindset has been taking things too far during Dragonflight. Slowing down A LOT by faffin' about on alts doing whatever instead of tryharding 247 on my Rogues, overdoing it Calming down from doing constant learning pushes with my Rogues. Real life pressure spilling into WoW. A downside of having mindset at a world class level since the early teens. Old habits die hard. Sometimes. Hence, aiming to balance life with all of the constant and huge changes that are happening on all fronts in my life. When to practice for perfection vs when to take it easier. Will use my BM Hunters in Solo Shuffles while playing other toons while waiting because of the extremely long queue times Playing Rogue feels wrong as long as the queues are the way they are. RBG Lead again? Playing on EU very actively again. Missed the teamwork of my home region. A lot. Playing objective Rogues is much more common and appreciated there so just playing in that environment is more relaxing. Playing other classes objectively as a way to learn what those classes want to achieve in specific situations. Plus the fact classes that can switch from defense, offense, objective play, teamfighting, slowing enemies etc are the most fun. By far! It's not even close. That's why I always enjoyed playing BM Hunter over MM long before I even understood that these were parts of the real reasons This episode was recorded during Dragonflight Watch my Twitch vods for the full Grayz experience.

Notice! This was recorded before 10.1 release My thoughts before doing my very first Solo Shuffle (writing shownotes before uploading. Afternoon 5/5 - 23. I've only done one Shuffler and I LOVED it even more than I ever thought I would haha). Rewatching that gameplay has been godsent). Using the Git Gud Gaming website for learning buffs and debuffs, my need to play consistently if I want quantum leaps to happen. Deciding on getting into the Arena bracket seriously for Season 2. Using my knowledge from Chess when breaking down PVP, especially @ Arena brackets; The opening, the midgame, the endgame. Also, from a futuristic perspective: The better I will get the harder it will be to see progress. At the very top you train & fight the hardest for the smallest percentages of gains. But the gains you add consistently are the exact reason why you gain an edge vs your competition, if they slack. Especially if you end up in a position where the competition stops being your competition simply because you are dominating in mental, practice and execution on the playing field. That is the Greatest of All Time levels among the Grandmasters, and within any part of life, only extremely few ever get to that level and the amount of people that truly understand what it takes to get there is few as well. I love living my lives in the faster lane. Stay on top! This episode was recorded during Dragonflight Watch my Twitch vods for the full Grayz experience Take care out there I Love You!

Message from my sponsors: Here it is, bois! Yet another milestone episode! You can pay me over at Patreon, Twitch, Youtube, Kickstarter etc etc etc haha. Let's get that scrilla! Notice! I used that scratchy ass sounding jacket. It's annoying but there's no way I'll rerecord this episode which was hyper-focused. Riplolwuh The very first WoW podcast, "Dictaphone Sessions", that I recorded was recorded back in 2012. What a journey this has been! WoW Life Huge change in mindset this season even when I thought I'd let it be and focus on season 2 instead. RBGs, seeing rating on correct character @ Check PVP, why the feeling of completion is crucial the more I want to compete, how I can gain rating fast if I play, leading RBGs, recording games off-stream, analyse on-stream Deciding on a new Sub build (Avidance main RBG build) where I skip Secret Technique which I love, but that does AoE and use Echoing Reprimand instead for single target, saving energy and building combo points and doing damage instantly after using Cheap Shots during Shadow Dance. I use the same keybind for Cheap Shot and Echoing RBGs is the real drug, practicing specific drills after watching Avidance during my downtimes at home a lot lately. Doing simple analysis on the fly. Rewinding videos when needed for specific breakdowns of what happened and in which order, seeing a lot of Rogue tricks in action that he does habitually Zooming the camera closer to my Rogues in WoW helps with things like Gouge, positioning and many other things. Actually seeing the enemy's front being visible clearer makes split-decision making easier and with Rogue every split-second is extremely important. It's not like healing with a Rasta Druid haha Take care out there I Love You WoW info NA https://check-pvp.fr/us/Sargeras/Globalled Main. 1.6k RBGs https://check-pvp.fr/us/Kel'thuzad/Globallxd Main alt https://check-pvp.fr/us/Tichondrius/Grayz Horde “main”.

This episode was recorded during Shadowlands The relationship to WoW as well as the podcast changes as my life changes, Brainstormz is a lot of perspectives at once counter-attacking eachother, "you win small so you can win big" -Ed Mylett, audio recordings (podcasting) happen when I experiment and reflect, video recordings (streaming) happen when I go hard in WoW and want to improve consistently, reaching specific goals requires specific actions.

This episode is an unintentional inbetweener between the two different podcast projects and I'm keeping this recording since it's an important part of my process of living more authentically. Especially long-term when I will have learned more in the future and can look back at this period in hindsight I'm trying to focus on topics regarding WoW while things happen on the streets. I tried writing some show notes for this one, but after more than 7 attempts I'm giving up and just letting it go.

This recording is all over the place a'la the classic Brainstormz episodes, but I still manage to dig deep. Just took much longer haha I'm basically clearing my mind after an intense period. The more I keep on talking the more I notice how much this recording helps as a part of my mental regrouping as well as my healing process. I felt as if I was about become sick while recording this as well I prefer female Rogues. The female Night Elf looks the absolute best with the best animations for my tast. Not sure which race I'll use Horde side. The new models really have lessened my options in regards to races I want to play. What's up with those creepy eyes? This is the single most chill return to a pre patch that I've ever had. Ever. There's so much “you can do” that I'm skipping The reasons why I want to main Rogue. Tired of carrying so many sets of gear as a Druid when I min max. As a Rogue all I need is to change weapons and PvP gear. Eventually. Playing on NA gives me a great opportunity to focus a lot more on one class compared to EU where I have a plethora of alts available. How I'll switch from Rogue if I change my mind Starting out with chillsteps feels so good. It lays a great foundation if I want to go hard later on The difference between EU and NA players in general. I have a Rank 1 mindset, but I would never spend the time reaching Rank 1 Different pre patch behaviour in Shadowlands because of all the Garbage systems Blizzard implemented. Skipping a ton of "content". New playstyle priorities, PvP plans, Dragonflight choices, Testing pre patch before buying the Dragonflight expansion Solo Queue is rated. So what does that mean for the future? Solo RBG Queueing? Blizzard chose Solo Shuffle instead of Solo Queueing. The second choice would be so much easier to implement but Blizzard pride, bro. Modern Blizzard = Blizzard 2.0 and forward. Listen to episode # 32 for a breakdown of how Supercell managed to do what Blizzard 2.0 never could. How I'd find and add chill PvPers through Solo Shuffling. The Butthurt meta mindset vs the Rank 1 mindset. The Rank 1 mindset is 3 - 10% of the entire playerbase and within that already limited percentage there will be another 3% that push harder than the other 97% within the Rank 1 range.

This gaming episode was recorded a week after the first Love Letterz episode that I mention during the recording. But at the time I wasn't sure if Love Letterz would be the name of that new project Back to WoW. Resubbed as a way to chill out and get used to the 10.0 pre patch Casual playstyle. No Hardcore projects planned at all Dragonflight thoughts. Less timesinks for me to avoid. Professions is one of the timesinks though. Choosing region Using free PTR testing to save cash longer + the PTR IS available so why not? Ui, addons, keybindings etc Which faction? Time tells Dragonflight. Relaunch of retail WoW due to a huge loss of players. No, I still don't trust Blizzard I have a different pre patch behaviour in Shadowlands because of all the Garbage systems Blizzard implemented. The outdoor solo content sucks more than ever Taking breaks = saving so much irl lifetime + avoiding in game agony/slavery. I didn't play the Shadowlands Tier Set patch at all. It feels like an absolute win since the Sets got nerfed during pre patch + Legendaries only work in Shadowlands zones now. It just goes to show how entirely messed up Blizzard's systems have been this dead expansion. I through in a pun there since Shadowlands killed WoW lololol Switching main class to Rogue from Druid. Since we can fly + I expect Herbalism to be nerfed for Druids in all Dragonflight zones. In cleaner words, I doubt Druids will be the fastest gatherers in Dragonflight + with the Region wide Auction House I don't expect herbs to be worth that much at all either during the entire expansion either. Unless Blizzard make their usual mistake of adding a non-flying zone. Which I bet they will. “Great Scott!” - Doc, Back to the Future Portals and minimizing travel times is the highest priority. I'll always be an Engineer on my toons IF the Dragonflight Wormhole is worth having as it was in Shadowlands New UI? I'm not satisfied. I said that I miss the old nameplates but I meant the old targetplates I'll level alts to level 50. Then to level 60 from the 15th of November when Chromie Time gets boosted to level 60 content. During the recording I talked about Dragonflight launch because I didn't remember the 15th of november while I was recording Bleach 1000 Year War adaption lasts 52 weeks with ZERO filler. It will be so fun to watch and add to my recurring anime watch list of classic favorites With Blizzard games you have to play smart if you don't have time to spare. NOT playing WoW is the best way for me to play right now. The longest break I have ever taken gave me the opportunity to focus on other fun stuff in life and come back when I could skip most of the Shadowlands systems entirely. I'm a master at adaptation + avoiding timesinks while maximizing my fun. The reason why I mention this concept nonstop year after year? Because it is the main reason I can play and have fun in WoW and has been they way that I have played since I finally got Earthwarden to drop on my Bear Druid alt after burning out on PvE content in TBC. I mained Hunter and played Mage as an alt as well. Of course! Gold making was ALWAYS a very high priority from the very beginning since my friend, Thefortunate, told me that gold was so hard to make. You see how it all comes together and connects in Grayz's World now? Haha WoW info https://check-pvp.fr/us/Sargeras/Globalled NA toons.

The WoG Brainstormz Podcast is Transforming Why should I continue to podcast at all? Where do I go with this project when there are more important topics that I'm passionate about than gaming? Why do people still listen to me, even after I stopped uploading episodes consistently several years ago? Those are a couple of the many topics that I dive into in this first episode of Love Letterz. As I prepare to change the course of this podcast project entirely thanks to my beloved loyal listeners as well my own growth Being myself more and more in day to day life as my experiences become more and more intuitive every year To all of the listeners that have passed away. Thank you so much for your love and support. You are one of the many reasons this podcast is heading down a new path. A path few would dare to choose To those still listening that appreciate hearing about my crazy adventures, thank you! We're about to turn the heat up a couple of notches and as always I record when I record, but the difference now is that I'll be motivated since life itself is extremely motivating to talk about In the end all the lessons I've learned through gaming have made me want to play the game of life at even higher levels https://twitter.com/grayzbdf I type things when I feel like it https://www.youtube.com/grayzbdf Currently inactive project, but this podcast might change things over there within x months https://www.twitch.tv/Grayzbdf Currently inactive project
WoW break, Twitch focus, other content, insomnia, new work schedule, new sleep routines, I will always be a RBG leader from now on unless I fully trust the leader, new second realm is Draenor Horde after realm transfer of my level 60 Alliance alt, third realm is Silvermoon Alliance. https://www.twitch.tv/grayzbdf Itunes here Stitcher here RSS feed here http://woworgold.libsyn.com/rss Twitter: @Woworgold, @grayzbdfBlog: www.woworgold.blogspot.com
This return to WoW was not planned, but PvP vendors was the deciding factor like for so many other players. I actually thought I'd return 6-12 months into this xpac. Stream of thoughts. Been a long time since I recorded anything. No interest in the last pathes of BFA, the expansion after, the endgame, the systems, the leveling (too easy and tied to a Campaign on rails), thoughts about PvP, RBG's, leveling alts to avoid burnout, improving and making choices to increase raw skill rather than rating, rerolled to Druid, using even more networking strats and a lot of other stuff. Oyeah ,switched guild as well. Itunes here Stitcher here RSS feed here http://woworgold.libsyn.com/rss Twitter: @Woworgold, @grayzbdfBlog: www.woworgold.blogspot.com
Avoiding timesinks is a habit ever since Earthwarden (Druid Tank Mace from BC) got replaced early Wrath, alts played depend on how one-sided Blizzard's thinking is with a system. Had my best gold making run ever with Enchanting before 8.2. Changed playstyle entirely to multiclassing by myself instead of doing serious PvP. Stacking classes I enjoy. Blizzard repeat mistakes with stats every expansion. I will force myself to stick to fewer alts before flying. Devotion, my main's guild, has finally gotten their shit together and progress much further than the old iteration of the guild. 5/8 HC @ patch 8.2 raid. Notice. I'm doing dishes the first 5 while recording. At 4:08 I drop some noisy shit.
My friend, Krieeg, wanted to go all in on Classic as a ganking Rogue. Me, on the other hand, wanted to get my main names and dabble in Classic 6-18 months after launch. No hype train, no queues, no obligations, just play it at my own pace. Make my coppers and silvers and just enjoy the ride of old WoW slowly. Well, those plans went to shit, so here we are. The entire world is upside down. The best part about Classic is that I can play them entirely differently. So I'm playing retail as an action arcade version of WoW where I can blast through things alone. Side notes: Good luck understanding this episode. It's oldschool Grayz in many ways. Also, the audio skips at times. This is an issue with my beloved s7 and I'll keep on recording on it. But if the skips hurt a very important topic in the future, I might have to use on another phone. Time tells.
The different leveling options I have. How I've chosen to level the first time around and why. Triple team multibox leveling. If you can't stand background noise be safe and stop around 3.40. The 2nd recording was recorded inside a bus filled with kids. I will probably revisit this topic when I have other ideas about leveling
Plans for the future. Cap reputations on main Hunter. Reach enough rep for professions on my Tier 1 alts; Mage and Warlock. Slowly repeat the process with my Tier 1.5 main Priest. Main Druid can slack entirely since Hunter now has modern day Inscription capped and is keeping it. While Druid has all of the old stuff, which is harder to get after the profession leveling changes. At least on low pop realms. The rest of my alts won't touch reps at all except for unlocking whatever the f*** Blizzard forces us to unlock in future expansions. Side topic not as fleshed out: Dropped Herbalism on alts and switched to Enchanting in most cases. Stationary characters can disenchant anything, but they can't herb. Also I chose Skinning on a select few alts and my newly created Druids are all 2x gatherers with Herbalism + Mining. 2nd set of Druids were being leveled in Jade Forest as of this recording.
Recorded a ton of unreleased episodes since my return a month before patch 8.2. That will become a Flashbacks thingy. Also playing WoWC (WoW Classic) 6-18 months ahead of my planned schedule.Having a f***load of fun too. This means that I might create "content" for that as well. Sidenote: Actually feels weird to see, but thanks for still listening although I hardly upload episodes. Ever. https://www.twitch.tv/grayzbdf
Old computer is not doing well. New computer is probably "The Move". Darkmoon Faire is up and choosing which alts to level in what order matters. At least to me. The 10% buff is best used on alts that can't Heirloom their levels anymore. While the lower alts have their rested XP + Heirlooms and should be fine. Especially since I hardly level at all without rested XP. Rep buffs? I use it on the Emissary world quests and any other quest that I deem worthy.
I'm focusing a lot on video and Twitch this time around, when I can, so this is a new kind of series where I grab the audio from videos and upload. After too many kicks, losses and me just never ever improving. I'm finally calling it quits. It was a short run! Some players should never ever PvP. I'm out for good! Here's the audio version of the video I uploaded to Twitch explaining why. The original video can be seen here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/319232651.
Playing more than expected, wanted to quit leveling cold turkey at 2 points while leveling beause of the cheeky Alliance quests in Drustvar and the repetitive quests in Vol'dun, War Mode is the bomb, PvP is fun, I'm always avoiding time sinks as much as possible, learning from streamers, wanting to raid the "World Boss Ziqo "The Arcane Dream". https://twitter.com/grayzbdf https://www.twitch.tv/grayzbdfwww.woworgold.blogspot.com
I'm grayztrades on Instagram if you for whatever reason want to know what the hell I'm up to nowadays. This has been a part of my plan all along although I didn't know how I'd do it. So if I do any gaming content in the future at all, it will probably be under extreme circumstances with a set time frame. Basically a hardcore challenge in order to save time and to learn whatever it is I want to learn for my business endeavours from it. I mainly post on Instagram and then share it to Twitter. Merry Christmas and F*ck off! Me too! https://www.instagram.com/grayztrades/ https://twitter.com/grayztrades
Who the eff is Grayz?! It's sell out time, boys! Finally. We made it. Buy my gold making guide and join my Patriots of Patreon. Thanks for my new house. And the boat.

Leveling battle pets with the shoulder enchant drops, using tokens for server transfers, making gold on main realm for WoW Tokens, playing the very basic parts of WoW, avoiding active Nethershard farming, preparing for 7.2, farming Order Hall resources with Blood of Sargeras combined with the Wardens shoulder enchant.
"It's time to face Grayz." Thinking about making Youtube videos with excerpts from the podcast. WoW Tokens and my take on them once the Battle.net balance change goes live, whenever that happens. Pros and cons with buying tokens now compared to post update. Rumors say that it will happen in 7.1.5, but I only trust official sources. Which either means patch notes, once a release date has been released, or when Blizzard's patch notes have an update with the specific update that I'm interested in being a part of each new PTR update. Data mining can be a great source for gold making. Remember the "epic gem patch" in Cataclysm? Suckers! https://twitter.com/grayzbdfhttps://www.twitch.tv/grayzbdf www.woworgold.blogspot.com
Twitch streaming, things I'm learning, streamers and different personalities, regaining energy and hunger. Featuring Stormwinds and Lil' Grayz at the end.

Merry Christmas! Note: The wind blows intensely at certain points. Topics: The Burning Legion Grind, content creators quitting, Legion is for the crazies that will keep on playing no matter what, avoid timesinks or burn forever in the fires of the Legion Update on what I'm up to on Twitch, Youtube, PvP goals, I'm rebranding Grayz the cow to Grayz the Hunter after 5 years, using www.canva.com more seriously than ever to quickly create new logos, thumbnails etc. https://twitter.com/GrayzBDF https://www.twitch.tv/GrayzBDF http://woworgold.blogspot.com
No! Don't expect me to rehash old news like most other content creators. So this isn't an episode you waited for just to hear extremely old news as if they're new and no one else had spoken about them. Blizzcon 2016 having the most interesting announcement since they announced Wrath, 7.1.5 stats Blizzard Blizifying solutions that should be simple to pick and choose, bans and exploits, RnGendaries (legendaries), players that should've quit WoW podcasting a long time ago because they're bored of the game. And most importantly a guest appearance by my daughter, Stormwinds, to end the madness!
"CoC has died". Again. "WoW has died". Again. Blizzard (WoW), Supercell (CoC), organizational changes in companies and my analysis from the outside looking in. Annoying fairplay fundamentalists (yeah, I go there) Sticking to my own joy filled path, outside of communities, in the scorched CoC land of FPC, modders, quitters, haters and schizos that lova and hate the CoC. Sweden's co-dependancy system (Jantelagen). Thooorin's Alpha Draft commercial impersonation goes to hell. Get dat sick scrilla on his Youtube. Hashtag #keepcalmimright because I can.
Some thoughts about Necroxis's discussion. Good luck, man!I love bringing back the oldschool feel to this one with the new PoV on what the internet thinks. "I don't care!" -Tommy Lee Jones. Ahaha.I want to record Clash for Gold but too busy, so recording a quick Brainstormz episode instead.Blizzard 2.0's gameplay @ all games is lacking and the Lore division has been destroyed entirely.Legion trailer or teaser not inspiring me the least.The sad state of so called "WoW podcasts" that were created "for the community".
THE NEW RSS FEED FOR THIS SHOW IS http://wogbrainstormz.libsyn.com/rssI'll record new episodes when we get closer to Legion launch. Will prolly be alot more hardcore in the planning stage this time around than I was in WoD. It's all about the progression.Playing Clash of Clans at a hardcore clan war level cause it's alot less of a time sink than WoW.Phase 5 has begun with ideas from this show eventually going to be used over @ my new podcast.

Currently you can't find any episodes and i'll be sorting it out the coming days in order to put new stuff out there. WoD is THE winner and I have a lot of thoughts about saving time, wasting time, gold making, gearing up, garrisons, alts, goals, raiding, pvping, having a daughter and more.

Note: This episode has zero music and it's just push-n-go recording that needed to be uploaded asap. I said WoW or Gold in the mini intro and forgot the Brainstormz bit. Deal with it! Topics: So fed up with amateurs with no will to learn in-game or in real life, having a mindset of a heroic raider, i'm in it to win it both in-game and in real life, changed guild, angry after wiping because of slackers numerous times in LFR/Flex, the importance of preparation, living as a leader, taking shots at the "WoW community" which is one big circle jerk (most of the time - lots of love to the few I genuinely like!), why raid leaders need to call out stupid and take responsibility as leaders of the team (inspired by Gevlon, @finalbossTV, @settoheroic, @riggnaros, @preachgaming and @methodsco), flexxing, Titan Runestones and my plan to abandon the LFR entirely once that quest is done, interview with Kanye West with Zane Lowe and Style Wars 1982.

Running scenarios as a tank, enjoying many classes and speccs in Mists, Guilds - what is their purpose? What has happened to the teamwork within social guilds? BC difficulties and why “back then” isn’t coming back, connecting gaming and the school system, being with leaders or followers and why I prefer surrounding myself with leaders, raid leading by example and why it’s so important to be a role model for the team, a recurring problem in all of my adventures where my skill leads to exclusion and difficulties in finding likeminded people, Itunes here Stitcher here RSS feed here Twitter: @Woworgold, @grayzbdf Blog: www.woworgold.blogspot.com

The title is a tribute to the classic game, Half-Life! Notice: This is another recording where I’m playing at the same time as I’m recording. My girlfriend’s laptop has a noisy keyboard and the mouse gets loud at times too, so if you can’t stand it, don’t listen.

Notice: This episode is made like an audio stream. What I mean by that is that I’m playing during the entire recording, so be warned, if you hate mouseclicks/random background noises (kids talking/waking up) don’t listen, period. This is practice for larger goals, so take it for what it is. I’ve not played and used voice chat at the same time often enough, so this is a way for me to practice doing it.

Raid attendance issues, the gap in raid difficulties, flex raiding in 5.4, it’s hard to get deep discussions going in social guilds, a guild is like a family - for good and bad, increased patching speed does not = quality, many sudden changes makes it harder for players to keep up, podcasting and hosting talk, leveling alts Itunes here Stitcher here RSS feed here Twitter: @Woworgold, @grayzbdf Blog: www.woworgold.blogspot.com
The gaming landscape is changing a lot, avoiding the boring grind for valor, alts and professions, linear starting zones are boring after the first time through, many social guilds aren’t social at all, linear gaming is boring gaming and I'm using the Pareto principle (the 80-20 rule) in WoW and at work.
