Choose My Adventure returns

- We will have many adventurers: Many of the staff will be having readers choose their adventures. We'll offer weekly polls and have you decide how we'll level that week.
- It came from the Blog will be our home: Our characters will all be Horde and are being created and played on Zangarmarsh (U.S.).
- We will post our play schedules: You will be able to join us on our adventures, as we will post the times we will be playing. You may have seen Shawn Schuster do this over on our sister site, Massively.
Adam Holisky: Adammentat, a Tauren Druid with aspirations toward tanking.
Michael Gray: Grayfield, a very sociable Tauren Hunter.
Elizabeth Harper is allowing the readers to choose which healing class to play:
| Priest | |
|---|---|
| Paladin | |
| Druid | |
| Shaman |
Also, choose her race. The winning class will of course dictate which race is eligible for winning.
| Tauren | |
|---|---|
| Blood Elf | |
| Troll | |
| Undead | |
| Orc |
Robin Torres (that's me) is leaving it all (mostly) up to the readers, so choose my class:
| Warrior | |
|---|---|
| Paladin | |
| Hunter | |
| Priest | |
| Shaman | |
| Mage | |
| Rogue |
I love the druid class, but I have a few and my willingness to play a warlock is spent on whatever time I play Itchee with The Spawn.
Please choose my race as well. Again, the winning class will determine the eligibility of the races.
| Tauren | |
|---|---|
| Blood Elf | |
| Troll | |
| Undead | |
| Orc |
And now to choose our adventure! Since we may sometimes group together and since it is simplest this way, we'll use the same poll for everyone this week. I've listed starting zones according to race and don't feel bad if you make us have to run our level 1 bods across the continent -- it will be part of the fun. (Note: Only Belfs can do the first few quests in the Belf area. If Blood Elf is chosen for Elizabeth and Robin, then they can go of course, but the others will have to go to the second choice.)
| Blood Elf | |
|---|---|
| Tauren | |
| Orc/Troll | |
| Undead |
Polls end on Sunday and the results along with our play schedules will be posted on Monday for the week. Pick something fun for us!

can't wait to creep on you guys and attempt to level at the same pace

Oh, yes! Yes! YES!
Choose my adventure had the potential to be the greatest series wow.com ever had.
Just don't go cookie cutter this time people. Be creative (and slightly sadistic) with the adventure we give this poor new character. ;)

The last one fizzled out because of we the readers.
"where should I go next?" "XXX has better xp go there"

I stopped reading it when he decided race was more important than class. At the time he did, shaman was the #1 class.
I really have no desire to help someone level a gnome warlock or read about it.
I wouldn't say we killed the last one, it was dead to a lot of us when the choice of race overrode class.

It just occurred to me that Zangarmarsh is a PvE realm. I've never leveled on anything but PvP realms... I've lost a little bit of interest in this :(
(cutaia) Mar 26th 2010 4:14PM
Really? You want them to announce to thousands of people exactly when and where they'll be leveling...on a PvP server? That's just asking for the next post to be, "I got ganked for 3 hours by 18 death knights with names that spell out Rick Astley lyrics. Screw this column idea."
Terethall Mar 26th 2010 4:18PM
@(cutaia): Lol. So true. I hate PvP realms with such a passion.
arquenvaron Mar 26th 2010 4:30PM
but we have to aggree.. that'd would be fun to see... tons of DKs running after a low lvl toon.. lol
Grovinofdarkhour Mar 26th 2010 4:36PM
Hey, if all the Alliance DKs are so easily distracted by single lowbie with a predictable schedule, is there any better time to do "For the Horde"?
Adam Holisky Mar 26th 2010 4:39PM
Never gonna give you up.
Robin Torres Mar 26th 2010 4:40PM
Never gonna let you down.
Magma Mar 26th 2010 4:43PM
Never gonna run around and desert you

That has to be the funniest thing I think Ive ever read on these forums.....
Joseph Smith Mar 26th 2010 9:41PM
Rickrolled by Holisky. Is there any greater shame?
Clydtsdk-Rivendare Mar 27th 2010 7:45PM
The only greater shame is if being rickrolled by Holisky made you cry or say goodbye.
Warlockami Mar 26th 2010 4:09PM
Sweetness! :D
I hope you guys have fun
duskhawk Mar 26th 2010 4:29PM
So... if your race/class options' top %'s don't match up... Like, if you get voted to be an Undead Shaman, would you go with Undead or Shaman?
duskhawk Mar 26th 2010 4:30PM
Oh, I had a reading fail... Class picks race.
Robin Torres Mar 26th 2010 4:32PM
The class will dictate the race. We'll go with the highest voted race that can play the winning class.
Ostentaneous Mar 26th 2010 4:44PM
Blood elf starting zone is winning? I mean sure it has the best quest and is probably the easiest, but I assume we will be looking at screenshots of this and some will be going with them. Wouldn't you rather spend time looking at/in Mulgore? It's easily the best looking starting area. So calm and beautiful.
