A change in my wind


You may have noticed this already, but I’m all for stating the obvious.

People are either raiding the hell out of ICC, or warming up alts for the Cataclysm.

The raiding isn’t happening for me. It occurs to me I haven’t even picked up this weeks weekly raid quest.

I’m not even chasing the Frost emblems in the daily random. There’s no question that they are a great way to augment your ICC emblem haul, but I’m not racking up the T10 gear, so my enthusiasm has waned.

As for leveling alts… It was raised the other day by one of my mates. My immediate “no” changed to a maybe reasonably quickly, but I’m stretched playing two characters… So 3 is pushing my luck and time.

Instead I am finding myself spending more time playing my alt…. errr my main… errr the one relegated to alt status, my original love, this blogs inspiration.

Yes, Gnomeaggedon has managed to push Squidly into a dark corner.

Sure Squidly gets let out for a run occasionally, particularly if my mates are looking for heals for a random etc… but otherwise Squidly is too far down the character selection screen.

What has brought on the change of mind?

A few things pushed me over the edge (more…)

  • I was upset when I went to roll a Shaman, that Gnomes weren’t an option.
  • I was upset when Cataclysm was announced that there weren’t any Gnome Shaman (Gnome Priests… Pfffttt!)

It may come as a surprise to you that I like Gnomes.

No?

Well it surprised me. I only rolled one because the Human Mage looked like a dress wearing Chuck Norris.

Then came Christmas… and under the tree (outside Ironforge), was a little present just for ME!

Some people transformed themselves to go for the PvP achievement, I transformed For Gnomeregan! (more…)

Cranky Old Gnome


I can be a bit of a cranky old Gnome at times,  as much as Larisa likes to tell me I have a rosy disposition.

But there’s one thing I know I love…

Gnomes!

I love Larisa, Krizzlybear, Nibuca just to name a few

I love to toot the Gnomes horn, make sure that the message gets across that we are a much bigger force to be reckoned with than our 3 foot stature might suggest. (more…)

Glyph of the Gnome


I’m not sure how many Glyph posts I have started and abandoned.

It’s not that I am unhappy with the Major Glyphs, although I am sure we all have ideas on how they can be improved.

My problem tends to be with the Minor Glyphs.

I can’t find 3 I want as either Mage or Shaman.

So here’s my proposal to Blizzard.

Glyph of the Gnome.

I aint Gnome Angel

Why we must reclaim Gnomeregan


GnomereganHalls

Gnomeregan

It’s not why you think!

  • It’s not to remove the dishonor of its occupation by filthy Troggs.
  • It’s not to save our poor leprous cousins.
  • It’s not to save the environment by stopping the seepage of radioactive wastes through the sewers of Azeroth.

The Goblins are not the only small race to be subjugated by oppressors! (more…)

Totally Owned by a 72 DK!


Currently, as I write this, running some old world raids.

Onyxia and AQ20 down already.

2 Gnomes

 We picked up a 72 DK for the night…

He’s totally owning me on the Damage Meters!

Who says DKs are OP?

Might keep him I think…

Gnomer and Out!

I have noticed a common thread amongst my cud chewing Tauren, spliff blowing Troll, zug zugging Orc, bone rattling forsaken and magic fume sniffing Blood Elf blogging colleagues.

The dislike Gnomes!?

  • They have grudging respect for Dwarves and their beer swilling antics.
  • They lurv the Draenei chicks and their tentacles (especially in plate)
  • They envy The Human relationship skills, and the reputation that it brings.
  • They hate the Night Elves, but then, who doesn’t?

But Gnomes…

It seems to oscillate between complete hatred to complete ambivalence (more…)

Gnomish Taxi Cab Co.


I have a dream…

I can sit online for hours per day just chatting to mates and making money.

Ok, so I have two dreams.

Sitting online hours per day, chatting to mates and making money, and…

Becoming the CGO (Chief Gnomish Officer) of my own transport company.

I would call it.. (more…)
