Thoughts: I Has Them

The weekend's come and gone, and since my cohort and I didn't have an 8-hour drive to make twice in two days, we were able to get some prime gaming time in. We've both hit 68 and are doing just peachy. The weekend's dungeon crawls and other assorted activities birthed some little tidbits of WoW-related insight that I'd love to share:

  • It's apparent that Black Morass and Old Hillsbrad are the redheaded stepchildren of the BC Dungeon Finder - they still require quests in order to gain access, which means that most PUGgers don't bother. I mean, it requires you to go all the way back to Azeroth and sit through a boring sort-of-escort, then to actually do Old Hillsbrad. Who wants to do that? Yeah, you guessed it...we do. We haven't had to wait that long in queue since we were doing Scholomance at 65. How crazy are we?
  • Why bother queuing for a dungeon if you don't have the time to commit? It's not like Mana Tombs is particularly long if you don't count the escort - but we had three Death Knights (beating my previous record) queue as DPS, and each of them had to leave early for one reason or another. We got to Shaffar and ended up with a Druid, Hunter, and ret Pally. It's definitely not my tanking skill. Or is it? Maybe they were hoping for a wipe.
  • Speaking of DKs, a discussion was sparked as we were finishing up the trash in that run: Someone needed to come up with a funny portmanteau for the class, kind of like Huntard. Well, I couldn't come up with anything funny, so I observed that the acronym DK could be used for the word Dummkopf. And voila, a new meme was born!

Not that I actually expect anyone to use that. Damn foreigners and their damn languages!
