Even sentient beings forget that water seeks its own level. We'll meet again "In the Mountains".

Once upon a time there lived a man named Algalon. He was a pretty boring guy, really. He didn't have any friends or hobbies, and rarely left his house except to go to Ulduar, which was where he spent the great majority of his time. Algalon was one of those kinds of people who were referred to as, "A Very Important Person." 
As often happens with the recluses of the world, Algalon hoped for change in his life. The hours of solitude turned to torment, and he longed for the companionship of other sentient beings. In a tremendous effort to fulfill his new found social desires - Algalon invited twenty-five other "Very Important Persons" to Ulduar, for a Party under the Stars. 
This was a mistake. 
Algalons don't play with... whatever you are.

We really put this fight off too long. But figured that with Yogg1 down on 25, that we might as well finish up this encounter on 10.

"Armour", not "Armor"

The general hard-mode encounter focuses on the same two things that the normal-mode does: Kicking, and Dodging. 
It is odd that these two aspects seem harder on hard-mode. Obviously, this makes sense from a literary perspective - but not at all, if you are actually.... you know.... fighting the guy.

Also: 48 attempts left on TotGC yields a Mad-Skill-Kill (as if our egos weren't big enough)

Here's hoping the second group can do better. 
until the next kill-of-skill,

Its not just the sweet matching armour.

Booi, while I sleep every night trying to keep the dream alive. I think that it was Blizzards sweet combat training in ToC and the Argent grounds that has prepared us for the coming of the Scourge King. Battle on Heroes Battle On!!

Auchindoun Pugging Adventures

It is no secret that Auchindoun Alliance has always struggled. 
With BC progression not seeing Kael and Illidan kills until post 3.0.... most people simply prayed for it all to end. 
Either as a testament to the recent open transfers (Daybreak in particular) or merely as a sign of how easy this content really is... Mz's alt/pug run cleared 25 man ToC this week. 
I like to think it is because Auchindoun Alliance is now a well-oiled killing machine.

Pictured above is the raid in its matching T9 battle armour. Where would we be without the daily heroic?

It strikes me as odd that people have been taking successful photographs since 1837... and we can't manage to get a simple screen shot. (pun intended???) 
This is probably my fault. 
Yet: an update is an update, so here it is:

10 Person Raids 
Cleared Trial of the Crusade, Trial of the Grand Crusade, and the latter with A Tribute to Skill... server first on the hard modes. 
25 Person Raids
Cleared Trial of the Crusade, Hodir hard mode, Thorim Hard Mode, IC hard mode.... and killed Mr. Yoggasaurus with "3 Lights in the Darkness" 
The latter of these gave our dear friend Attorney a new toy.

So congratulations to everyone on the continuing progression, and let's keep pushing for that Celestial Defender.

EDIT: the website needs a banner, if you have something that doesn't look like garbage, send it my way please.

To commemorate a poorly updated website, I have decided to add a poorly edited photo. Maybe it's the location... A stairwell after an epic encounter amidst the stars does feel like a step back. Perhaps two minutes of editing just isn't enough of an effort after the effort that goes into a kill like this. 
The point is this, Simple killed something, and it's on the website. So congratulations to everyone on the kill. And congratulations to everyone for standing in a line for the first time in months :) 
Server First Algalon 10 and a Server first He Feeds on Your Tears. 
Solid. 

The video adventure can be found <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dTLWmgCZoY" \target="_blank">Here.</a> And a special thanks to Relent for picking a half decent song for once. 
 
Grats to Mr. Mormont on his Dalaran light show.
 
 
Cheers,

It's pretty good, it's also very true.

RAIDING
"Here’s where it gets tricky. When you tell 25 people to go to The Caverns of Time, seven of them don’t know what that is, two of them aren’t playing anymore, one fell asleep in his pizza, two have to drive their kids to therapy, one tells you to shut the fuck up, four are rebooting their computers, one is getting kicked off by his parents, two are lost foreigners who thought this was the train station, one is pressing enter on the same Chuck Norris joke over and over, two of them tell everyone to go to three different places and one is your girlfriend bitching at you about how much this sucks."

Also good job on yogg guys.
