There is no candy here. It’s just thoughts on video games, tech gadgets, movies and whatever else inspires me. Which is almost like candy. But not really at all.
Maddening World of Warcraft Quiz
AFKGamer has a post up to this WoW Knowledge Test and it’s driving me crazy. There are a bunch of abbreviations and you have to figure out what they mean, but they’re not as simple as LFG, AFK or for easily recognizable place abbreviations like BB or SFK. Oh no, these take things to a whole new level.
I’ve managed to answer 8 of the 24 questions, but I’m totally stuck. Anyone have more answers? The ones I got are after the break. If you play WoW you should try it before reading my answers!
UPDATE: Thanks to helpful folks posting to the comments section, we now have the complete answers!
(I put stars by the ones I got, just in case you were wondering)

Downed Mr Lich King
about 5 months ago - No comments
Finally! We’ve been working on this for about a month. I was starting to feel like maybe we were slightly insane to keep going back over and over again but tonight it all just went right and we downed him on only the second attempt for the night. Our main tank even disconnected briefly but
Blood Wing cleared

It wasn’t pretty but we got past the Blood Prince Council and Blood Queen tonight. Super stoked, the fights were challenging and interesting for the healers for a change! Most of Icecrown Citadel has been pretty mindless and putting me to sleep. Now to convince the bosses to drop some caster mail… P.S. Blizzard, please
How to Resto
about 7 months ago - No comments
My guild is working its way through Icecrown Citadel on 25m and 10m and I recently posted some tips on resto shaman healing to our guild forum. I thought I’d copy them here in case anyone else was interested. We use World of Logs to study how we’re doing and compare our progress across weeks.

Ding, I’m 80!
about 1 year ago - 6 comments
Ding! I hit 80 two days ago with my Shaman, Myrendra. Towards the end it was a bit of a grind, but I was behind my guildies and they wanted to start raiding this week, so I had to catch up! I’m a bit dissatisfied with what I’ve seen of Shaman enhancement DPS in Wrath
Dual-boxing: Getting Started
about 1 year ago - No comments
A few months ago, I had this crazy idea. “Tara”, I thought to myself, “I don’t think you spend enough time playing World of Warcraft! I think you need a more serious challenge than the game has been providing.” What to do, what to do? After much thought, I decided to give dual-boxing a try.
I knew it!

My main character in World of Warcraft is a Tauren female. Yes, I play a big cow lady. I’ve always gotten stuck in certain doorways and areas and found it maddening. My friends playing other Tauren never seemed to have these issues and so I was thinking I just must be coming at doors from

Hi folks! I’ve been kinda busy playing too much World of Warcraft for a change, sorry for the lack of updates! Patch 3.0.2 introduced us to the joys of achievements and between that and the second account I started (long story I’ll share another day), I’ve been putting in maybe a few extra hours gathering
WotLK Hands On

After an epic length download, install, patch download, patch install, repeat ad infinitum, I finally got my Wrath of the Lich King beta installed and playable tonight. There are really two options – copy over a character, or roll a death knight. I decided to start with the death knight because I figured everyone and
