GuildWatch: Shameless self promotion

Sorry GuildWatch is running a little late this evening-- my guild, Gothic Bunnies on Thunderhorn-H (see above) came *this* close to finishing off Rajaxx this evening (we're casual, you hardcore raiders-- no comments from the peanut gallery, please). The good news is that while sites like NotAddicted give you theoretical guild drama, we've got the real thing-- and we're even making some ourselves.
If you want your guild (or tips about a guild you know) to show up here on Tuesdays, drop us a line at wowguildwatch@gmail.com. You're the ones out there fighting, downing, and recruiting-- we just want to report it. This week's GW is... well, you know the rest.
DRAMA
- I don't know if you saw the comments on last week's post, but it looks like GW is creating some drama of its own. The "Ex-Hordecore Shaman Class Leader" who cleaned out the bank and wiped out the website after he got /gkicked revealed a little too much about himself, and in GW's inbox this week, we found this comment from a current leader of Order of the Chicken (which we learned was on Elune): We said the entire raiding force was split up, but only about eight people left, apparently. Also, the current leader wanted the person who commandeered the split to know that after the splitter had saved for four and half months waiting for the right half of the Windseeker Binding to drop (he had the left and the bars), it finally did-- 3 days after he left the guild. Ouch for him.
- This isn't so much drama as it is just plain nice. To celebrate their first anniversary, a few members of the RP-PVP guild The Caliphate (Emerald Dream-A) made a cool little movie of themselves and their exploits.
- Sacred on Chromaggus-A died, but Requiem says he wants to get the band back together. For more info, send him a tell.
- Rumor has it that Vashna from Kargath-A got banned by Blizz for jumping on another player's account and DEing all his gear. Any former guildies of his around with the story?
- The details are sketchy on this one, but it seems like Shakazalabas, a player over on Stormscale-H, decided to gank two members of ShadowRiders (Alliance on the same server) while they were dueling. The guild happened to have a 40 man raid in the area (presumably for AQ), so all 40 men went over to rez their guy and, despite Shaka's cowardly begging, proceeded to whip up on the Horde who'd ganked their guildies. Neato.
- Piesces and Diezul seem to have kind of a romantic thing going on over on Boulderfist. They /kiss whenever they see each other. The only problem? She's a human mage, he's an orc warrior. The course of true love never did run smooth...
- Ninja Alert: Eatmorchikin on Gnomeregan-H, according to Predatory Mollusks on their ZG run. He claims it was his little brother playing his account, but group with him at your own risk.
- Dark Solace on Skullcrusher-H sends a pretty boring screenshot of their Rag downing.
- Celestial Knights on Eldre'Thalas continue to update us of their progress: Ebonroc and Flamegor are downed and Chromaggus is next. Rock on, CK!
- Oz Knights of Garona-A finally downed Razergore on their 8th attempt, and wanted to send a shout out to the folks in Die Screaming, "without those guys, things like this would simply not be possible!" Cmon guys, that's the opposite of drama...
- Ace of Spades on EU Zenadar cleaned Nef's clock, grats to them.
- Gray Rangers (and their friends) also finished off Razergore. Grats to Biff, Ladyjade and Grig on the loot!
- Finally, Gothic Bunnies on Thunderhorn-H (a guild which is amazing, if only because it boasts me as a member) was able to two-shot Luci, and one-shot both Magmadar and Gehennas on their first ever trip as a guild into Molten Core. Garr gave us some trouble, but we came back the next night to show him how the Bunnies roll, and finished him and all his little stony minions off too.
- Shadow Brotherhood Guild on Dunemaul-H is recruiting for ZG and AQ20. Also, they're checking out the SWAPS method of loot distro, which looks interesting... One of these days, I'll do a post here about how guilds distribute loot.
- Illuminati from Burning Blade-H cleared both MC and Onyxia-- in the same day-- and is looking for droods, priests, shammys and locks ready for BWL
- Dark Warriors on Cenarion Circle wants everybody but warriors and hunters (who get no love, it seems)-- they especially want casters: droods, mages, priests
- Insomnia (winner of this week's Best Guild Name award) is a late night raiding guild looking for players on Oceanic realm Barthilas. They're also looking for players for their sister guild, called CARNAGE.
- Swords and Staves on Mannoroth-A wants more droooooooods. Hey, if you get to fly, I get to call you that.
- Intoxication on Aszhara-H wants new peeps to start raiding
- Friends with Benefits (a close runner up for Best Guild Name) is recruiting cross server for their guild on Gul'Dan-A

Again, no news from Lothar. Come on Lothar people, you exist too! Send them the news!

Mike, you're an ass.
Concerning your statement in the Downed section:
A "boring screenshot" it may be, but who are you to flame someone because they're happy they accomplished something? You've basically said "This guy's guild is boring".
To Sep 27th 2006 8:48AM
Insomnia won best guild name over Friends with Benefits...lame. Who decides this? Cuz I'm gonna give 'em a slap!

Sorry Hory, didn't mean to flame them. Grats, Dark Solace, on the Raggy down! But as screenshots go, I stand by my opinion: that one is boring.
Hory Sep 27th 2006 10:40AM
I'd admit that one. However, with so many people downing Rag nowadays... it's a bit tough to come up with something original to go with a guild's happy recount of their experience.
Maybe next time they should throw monkies into the lava for while dancing in full twill sets or something.
Sorry for the "ass" thing.

I'm from Thunderhorn too, just not on horde side. Just wanted to say GL in AQ20!

The best guild name I've seen lately on Gnomeregan is:
Full Frontal Nerdity.
It gets my vote.
