So, looks like I have been tagged by two (?) bloggers not only recieve this auspicious award, but to do the following ‘meme!’ Regarding the title, I would not consider myself a WoW blogger – I’m a WoW webcomic artist with a very big mouth. :3 I’m going to link back the good dwarf Mattycus, because I’m old and senile and he’s the only one I remember linking me. 
“This award is bestowed on a fellow blogger whose blog content or design is, in the giver’s opinion, brilliant.”
- When accepting this auspicious award, you must write a post bragging about it, including the name of the misguided soul who thinks you deserve such acclaim, and link back to the said person so everyone knows she/he is real.
- Choose a minimum of seven (7) blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. Or improvise by including bloggers who have no idea who you are because you don’t have seven friends. Show the seven random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with Honest Weblog. Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon.
- List at least ten (10) honest things about yourself. Then pass it on!
I’m hardly that interesting, but hey, since you guys asked for it!
- I’m a natural redhead. I’ve got an almost anime-esque long, barrel curly, auburn hair. If I wasn’t so lazy, it would actually look good. While being very self-concious of my looks, I think it’s my best feature. :3
- I’m a southpaw (too! Yay Anea!)
- I am neurotic when it comes to cleanliness. My living and working spaces are direct correlations of my mental state. I MUST have everything spotless and organized, then I have fun or whatever. =)
- I love to dance, despite being whiter than sour cream. I have trained fairly extensively in Egyptian bellydancing, and took an eight-week hip hop course late last year. I’m itching to go back to bellydancing, but I can’t afford it. =(
- I love gaming. I’ve been console gaming since I was nine, and was subsequently a HUGE fan of Sonic the Hedgehog. I still have all the comics I collected several years ago. :3 I’m mostly console, but, well, WoW…^_~ I also have experience in tabletop gaming and was in a fairly intense DnD 3.5 game for…almost two years, I think.
- I am a dual citizen! I was actually born in Los Angeles, CA, but I’ve lived in British Columbia, Canada for most of my life.
- I have a wild bird and a hummingbird feeder hanging from my balcony. Even if it makes me seem old lady-ish, watching all the little finches and whatnot come to eat gives me such joy.
- I am notoriously and horribly cheap. Comes from having a Jewish father. ^_~
- When I was very young (7-8 years old), I wanted to be a crow when I grew up. Yes, as in the bird. Don’t ask.
- Despite everything mentioned above, I LOVE going shopping. Shoes, handbags…you name it, I love it. I won’t deny my feminine nature.
Okay, so…now for the bloggers! This is random, and a good reminder that I should probably read more WoW blogs!
- Holy Discipline – Blog of Anea, space goat priest extra-ordinaire! Anea is a lovely person, and very nice! You should go to her blog, and perhaps follow her on Twitter! That would be swell.
- Holy Dueg! – Priestly blog run by Duegathalas, aka Dueg. Dueg. Is. HILARIOUS. He is also a very talented player! While I read all his posts, the ones I look forward to most are his Saturday RPs. Yay Dueg!
- World of Matticus – Jeez Louise, for being a feral druid, I sure do follow a lot of priests! Perhaps it is because they are so gosh-darned friendly? Who knows! In any case, the healing battery dwarf is a multi-talented and multi-blogged fiend. Also, he’s local talent! Vancouver FTW!
- Me and My Ghoul – I’m pretty DUR about DK’s, but Grimtorn is just too much fun to chat with on Twitter. She’s also redesigning her site, so be sure to check back soon!
- Druid Kitty - Done by the talented @superkathoid. Despite being Alliance (sorry! LOL) she’s an excellent player, and a real sweetie on Twitter. I could learn a thing or three.
- When Enraged – Written by Jezriyah, the most hilariously awesome and linguistically talented troll hunter I’ve evah met! Seriously, Jez, lemme read more of your stories. You’re KILLING me here. :O
- Through the Eyes of Death - The nicest Forsaken rogue I’ve ever met! Also tons of fun to talk to on Twittah!
So that’s it. If I missed anyone, I’m sorry! I blame my senility (I’m 23). But hey! Honorable mentions!
-Kestrel’s Aerie – Just a really all-around nice WoW blog.
-All Things Azeroth – The only podcast I listen to. Medros is really nice! I don’t know much about podcasts, but his is most enjoyable!
So, that’s that. This was fun! Thanks all!

So sorry about the cliffhanger, guys. The important points I wanted for this comic just turned out too long. I’d like to keep the comics somewhat consistant in size, and I also didn’t want to, y’know, die under the workload. XD
Not much else going on, but some things this week I thought were pretty awesome:
-Kissless, Chabena (a troll rogue in our guild) and I got our first title – JENKINS!! While Kissless did most of the work (miscommunication as to who would instigate it… >_>;;), it was still a lot of fun. Oh, those wacky dragon whelps.
-There is a really fun new thread in the Forums! Kissless’ Adventures in Thunder Bluff is a story started by the elf of the same name. Come on in, read what’s there so far, and add on if you want! It’s an open-ended RP, and I’m really excited to see where it leads! Please, nothing inappropriate, or I will nerf-bat you so hard your whole family will feel it.
I know there was something else, but I can’t remember what….oh, in other news, thanks to Kissless, Jouste, Merly, and the unstoppable force of Chibikeni, I’ve earned five achievements over the weekend just for running instances! We did….umm…..*think think* (sorry, I’m tired) The Underbog, the Slave Pens, the Steam Vaults (all in Zangarmarsh), Upper Black Rock Spire (we’re gonna try for Nefarion later on..) and Sunken Temple. Lots done! I love vanilla instances! Our next plan is to run AQ 40. WITH JUST THE THREE OF US. Yes. We’re that hardcore. We’ll also start the world event, y’know, for something to do. :3
Finally, I would say to do yourself a huge favour and go read the RP stylings of our resident Sin’dorei priest, Holy Dueg! His RP posts are fantastic; I look forward to them every Saturday morning (well, morning over here, anyways).

Adding another site to the blogroll! This one is ‘Restokin,’ a very nice all-around druid blog I found from WoW Insider. I was really impressed with the content (although I’m not a blogger, what do I know about stuff like this? XD), so I am going to add it anyways!
While I am not a serious DK player, please to visit my mighty moo pal, Grimtorn of ‘Me and my Ghoul!’ He’s a very good and thorough blogger and player, and again, while I don’t know much about DK’s, his blog is good.
I’ll post more as they come!

Well golly gee, Mr. Deathgate! Don’t look too happy to be there! Y’know, in these hard economic times, you should be grateful that you still even have a job! So be thankful of your standing in the blazing sun, dusty savanna, and random centaur attacks!
Some people these days…yeesh…
In other news, Anea the super-priest of Holy Discipline is now my editor! Mostly because I sleep so little, my zombie brain manages to mis-type much of the text that goes into the comic. I will now rely on her sharp eyes to pick out any spelling, grammar, or whatever errors may pop up. Thanks, Anea!
Glad everyone also liked the WoW Bash exerpts. I’ll try to find some more gems and post throughout the week!
In the Jungle, the Mighty Jungle, the Centaur sleep tonight

PS – Sorry the forums have been a bit dead lately. I took a little personal photobook of Nagrand from Saturday, so I’ll try and have those up in the next day or two.
Has anyone ever heard of WoW Bash? It’s a site which catelogues screencaps of player conversations, and I mean all of them. The good, the bad, and the oh-so ugly. This site was shown to me by another mighty moo, Grimtorn, Tauren DK blogger extra-ordinare!
While looking through some of the archives while totally not at work (if any co-workers are reading this yes I was totally get my work on the WHOLE TIME), I’ve picked out a good handful of personal favourites. I recommend starting with the Top 100, then just going to ‘Latest’…
- [To Honor One's Elders] – IN BED!
- The Feral Prince of Dire Bear (this one rules…)
- New Tauren Racial Abilities…This Is a Good Point!
- BEST. RICK ROLL. EVAR.
- Ignorance is Bliss for This Dwarf Priest…
- Poor Magtheridon Was Sore for a Week… D:
- Illy D Knows These Things.
- Language Fail.
Now these are only a few….I’ve yet to finish all the archives, but when I do, I’ll post more.
Grimtorn You Almost Got Me in Trouble at Work for Laughin’ So Hard~

Last night, I ran Scholomance with Kissless, and Chabena, a fellow soon-to-be-guildie. Again, small potatoes, I know, but it was a really fun way to spend two or so hours.
Plus, hey – lots of fun stuff for the AH! I was helping to stimulate the economy. Those…um…those students of necromancy were SKIPPING ON THEIR TUITION AHHHHH!!! We were only doing the work of concerned citizens and putting an end to their abuse of old government funds.
While inside, we sat down with some of the [oddly well-behaved] students.
Here is their story.
