WRUP: Welcome to patch 3.1 edition
Last week's WRUP was dismally quiet as the team waited (a bit impatiently) for patch 3.1 to hit the realms. So, with the patch out, what is the WoW Insider team playing this weekend? Like the rest of you, it looks like we're scoping out new content! Want to know what the team is playing this weekend -- or want to let us know what you're playing this weekend? Read on!
- Adam Holisky: Either sitting behind home plate at a Minnesota Twins game this weekend, or sitting in front of my monitor leveling fishing on my second character.
- Alex Ziebart: We're going into Ulduar Sunday night for the first time, since Wednesday night was an utter wash. I'm hoping we don't all suck now due to sleeping through Naxx for months. We got Sarth 3D, we can't have gotten that rusty, right? ...right?
- Allison Robert: Screaming and beating my modem, router, laptop, and various wires in the hopes that one or more of them can cough up a stable connection in raids. Quoth the Magic-8 Ball, "Outlook not good."
- Chase Christian: I've gathered up our Undying Naxx 10 group for our first assault on Ulduar, we're going to go for broke on Saturday night and play until someone falls asleep.
- Daniel Whitcomb: Various real life obligations are rearing their heads this weekend, but I am planning to steal some time to sneak on and do the Argent Tournament and fishing dailies. Daddy needs a new Sea Turtle mount and/or Crab pet.
- Eliah Hecht: Leveling my Alliance Warlock and my Horde Hunter, and trying to get a guild run together on the new Vault boss.
- Elizabeth Wachowski: Desperately attempting to get my Holy gear up to par with my Ret gear. On a related note, lrning2healz.
- Jennie Lees: Missing all the Ulduar firsts due to being in California. At least it's nice weather!
- Matthew Rossi: We found the remains of the Bronzebeard expedition this week. Since then, our forces have pushed into the lair of the great beast. Blood has been shed, some of it our own, and I can't say with certainty who the ultimate victor will be. Especially since I'm such a noob healer. Still, the 10 of us will continue our plunge into the titan city. Tekeli-li! There's also some 25 man legacy raiding planned, I believe. Ulduar -- 25 we do during the week.
- Matt Low: Calling an extended campaign this weekend. Also will be leading an expedition into Ulduar. (And watching playoff hockey in between)
- Michael Gray: My guild fairly effortlessly defeated Flame Leviathan. We're going to be working on Magma Ragers next.
- Michael Sacco: ULDUAR.
- Zach Yonzon: On Sunday we take another crack at Ulduar and hope that trash doesn't trample on us the way the Lakers will trample on the Jazz. Amazing is about happen, people! League Pass Broadband FTW. In other news... are the Battlegrounds up yet?

Trying to figure how bad the Death Strike hurts in PvE.

Hell yeah Zach! Lol the jazz are gonna get roflstomped tommorow, but so are the Pistons baby! Cleveland/Detroit ends in 5 max.
Go Cavs! I only wish Boobie didn't pull a major fail on the last play of hte regular season =(. At least he was clutch enough to get us that far.

Is there a sports blog we could move this comment to?

Same thing we do every weekend: try to take over the world!
Nah, working nights and spending the rest of the night trying to optimize my keys for PvP and grinding on my priest. Gotta get him up to 80 sometime this week. Stupid firmware update on Qwest left me questing against boredom with the awesome power of sleep most of the week.
Also, going to see how badass kitty form really is on mobs. Got my first druid to 20 this week. She's a beautiful albino tauren, who turns into the ugliest goddamn lion on Azeroth to tear things apart.

My guild's first reaction to trash in Ulduar25 was "We need more healers."
So of course, the dedicated altoholic I am, I now have a level 19 druid. I have some stuff to finish up in Naxx, and I'm going to grab the last handful of heroics for Champion of the Frozen Wastes.

Desperately trying to organize enough interested people for Naxx now that Ulduar is out - quite a few in our guild could very well still use Naxx25 gear, particularly Sapphiron and KT drops :P
And in between, being an altoholic, working yet another alt, this time druid(last tauren class).

I am spending the weekend mourning the lost of TANKING because talks go down like cheap hookers now.
Usdom Apr 18th 2009 9:45AM
tanks go down like cheep hookers, even.
WTB edit function.

Hopefully 10-man Ulduar this afternoon (only Ignis, Mimiron, General Vezax and Yogg-Saron left), but failing that there's scheduled 25-man Ulduar tonight.
Oh, and lots of fishing - those fish feasts don't make themselves, after all.

Adam: You're a ND boy, a Twins fan AND a good writer! Keep that up, and you'll replace Allison Robert as my favorite writer on this blog (and that's very tough to do!).
