Tonight there was a “Meet Your Guildies” event hosted by me for The Anti Drama Commonwealth (four guilds) on Proudmoore-US server.  Isayuri is GM, and I am event committee leader.

The icebreaker games– modified for WOW from a blog called Insight (see copyright attribute at the bottom) and found on Google- were played on ventrilo and are listed below.  I also included some examples:

My Name Is? – Everyone states their name to intro + adjective that describes them starting with the same letter as the name… this name will be what you are referred to during night*.   <My name was Mighty Mer.>

* During this time I had everyone in the vent group ingame mail me some things for two later games (2 Truths… and Cat in The Hat).

Two Truths and a Lie – The first game, which was sent ingame mail*, was Two Truths….  I had them send me two truths about themselves and one lie (with the lie marked on the message).

Everyone on vent then can guess 1) who the person who is being read about is and 2) which statement is the lie.  I gave five points (maybe this should go down to two or three?) for guessing the person and one point for picking the lie.  The winner, Rainelyn, received a Cockatiel pet.

We then told who the Zombie Apocalypse Team would be for each person.  It is a facebook game based on birth month, birthday, and the color shirt you are wearing right now.  Look:

We gave a prize to Ravenlee- Mist-Piercing Goggles– for the most awesome team because she was wearing three shirts.  Plus one of them was Wolverine-colored!  So that was 5 team members plus some lol.

Conversation Starters– Random questions like “Who Has the Most Pets?” and “Who Has Travelled the Farthest from Home?” were asked.  I also asked a few WOW related questions.

Cat in the Hat– I had everyone send me an ingame question (*at the beginning) using any subject they are knowledgeable about.  Make sure they are appropriate if guild rules would require it….

The question I wrote, for example, was- Who wrote the Headless Horseman?

The leader reads the name of the question then reads the question.  Our questions were all pretty hard, but we had one person guess two right- Rainelyn.  She won a Red Wine Glass offhand.

Thanks and credit to Grahame Knox for some of the icebreaker ideas-

The other night, my guild on Proudmoore-US, The Anti-Drama Society, held their first Halloween party.  The party was held at Greymane Manor in Gilneas, where we had warlocks ready to summon everyone.

20 Summoned and Counting

We started the party with handouts of green and white smoke flares, paper zeppelin kits, Tasty Cupcakes, and a game item (a Steam Tonk Controller).  There were also wine kegs, feasts, Apple Pies (from Dalaran), and pony kegs laid down.

Member Wolfsage did a pet raffle during the party where she had everyone roll between 1-3.  The roll would determine how many pets each person received.  I got three pets including Teldrassil Sproutling and Anodized Robo Cub.  Somewhere around 50-75 pets were given away during the party.

Costume Line-Up

We then lined up in a doorway to determine the costume contest winner.  Trinarra was dressed as a Scary Pumpkin and won a Blood-Elf Bandit Mask.

Farmer Bean

Beanski won a Brawler’s Pass for his farmer outfit.

There was then a circle formed for the Steam Tonk Controller battles.  We did four rounds of fighting with the last tonk standing as winner.  Prizes given were: Mist-Piercing Goggles, Orange Martial Shirt + Lavender Shirt, and the Mystery Potion Package (Potion of luck x1 and Pygmy Pots x12).

Wolfsage then did a Halloween trivia contest.  There were three short rounds of questions- the round one winner got 10g, the round two winner got 20g, and the last round was one question worth 250g plus a rare pet.

There were also Darkmoon “murloc” and Darkmoon “rocket” rides during the party compliments of Taysha.

Prizes were mailed to winners after the party.

The party was a huge success for this large guild alliance of over 1000 toons.  I would like to thank the GM, Isayuri, for letting me assist as activities committee chair.  Also thanking Wolfsage, Ruccos, Ouliana, Deilana, Nift, Moy, and Rainelyn for all their help.

Sneaking Back Into WOW (Again….)

priest, proudmoore, return to WOW, warcraft, world of warcraft, WOW


After several months of being absent from WOW, I’m finally but reluctantly admitting that I have sneaked back to it over a month ago.

I never had really intended to come back and thought I had made it pretty clear to everyone that it would be that way forever.  Even after at least 50 people commented to me- “aren’t you coming back yet?” – or – “you know you won’t stay gone, no one does”- etc., I was still away, although pretty bored with netflix and ipad games I have to admit.

Coming back to WOW was really just a random thing that happened, never planned that way.  I didn’t even know until that week that my account was still active, but my husband had mentioned it.  Then he also mentioned one night that a friend of mine who had been away from game for a long time was on.  So I thought- I’ll just jump on for a minute so I can give him my facebook info or email, yada yada….

Next thing I know, he basically talked me into not only coming back to WOW but transferring to a new server (long story but basically to leave a dying one).

I’ve been playing the past month by ear, still not even sure whether I will renew my subscription in August or not.  Slowly but painfully gearing up PVE, learning to do rated BGs and arena on my priest, and getting to do lots of raids with complete strangers on an active server through trade chat, general chat, and LFR.

Before a Rated BG on Meridiane

Not sure if I will stay on the server I am on currently (Proudmoore-US) with my priest or not, but I am definitely considering possibly another subscription to the game that has been my hobby since 2004.
