Not enough time in the day.

Arrgghh I've been crazy busy this week! With the mogolympics in full swing, gearing up my Warrior a bit more and a bit of gold making here and there, busy, busy!

I love Moggit especially now that I know how to use it ahem but I generally prefer to use it only to scout out items then go and collect them. So when I'm not glued to Moggit I've been running instances or raids. I had to do the first boss in Black Morass no lie 29 times for what I had previously consider my favourite bow. It isn't my favourite bow anymore and I wish it and everyone who has it a fiery death.

In terms of gold making every thing is going well. I'm very casually getting back into my grove. Numbers are going up and that's always a good thing. I'm spending a lot of time hunting gear and rep grinding on various alts for transmog items. I'm still not utilizing my professions or time very well but that'll come once I'm a bit less busy with everything else.


Ideally I should clear out my TSM data and start a fresh. The vials of the sands I had bought and sold when I transferred servers. I'm sure the gold earned is also counted from when i transferred. Once I'm settled in a bit better I might even post some tips about making gold but in the meantime have a look at my blogroll. There are a few excellent gold making blogs in there.

Transmogolympics!

With the London Olympics coming up soon JD from Amateur Azerothian is holding a World of Warcraft Olympic themed transmogrification event and I've signed up to join in!

Participants have to create outfits relating to the following games.
  • Archery – Build an outfit around your favourite bow.
  • Cycling – Build a biker outfit to compliment the Chopper.  It must be either Leather or Mail.
  • Discus – Build an outfit around one of the shield skins seen here
  • Equestrian – Build an outfit to compliment one of the horse mounts in the game.  (Faction limitations apply, so no Orcs on a Stormwind pony)
  • Fencing – Time for some swordplay.  Build your best outfit around the 1h sword of your choice.
  • Javelin – Build an outfit around the polearm of your choice.
  • Hammer Throw – Build an outfit around your favourite two-handed hammer.
  • Wrestling – We’re going to deviate from olympic wrestling and go to the sports entertainment aspect instead.  Using one of the “championship” belts, design your own Azerothian pro wrestler.  Think of the oversized belts, such as the Firemend Cinch seen here.
  • Freestyle – Build your own NPC. Could be an innkeeper, could be the Green Orc Lantern.  Doesn’t matter.
This is an amazing idea! My head is buzzing with ideas. If you would like to join in just head on over to Amateur Azerothian and leave a comment after you've read all of the instructions. Upon commenting you'll be given a random faction to represent during the games. 

We're not allowed to share our entries until after the even as everything will be anonymous but we are able to show off our flag bearer. I'm going to be representing the Scarlet Crusade. 

The Scarlet Crusade aren't the most welcoming or trusting bunch I've met so I'm attempting to fit in as best I can. 


Do the crazies proud!

Staff - Benediction 
Head - Circlet of Prophecy 
Shoulders - Furious Gladiator's Mooncloth Mantle
Chest - Stonecloth Vest
Gloves - Red Mageweave gloves
Belt - Voidweave Cilice of Fire Protection 
Legs - Cindercloth Pants 
Feet - Farshire Footpads of the Owl 
Tabard - Tabard of the Scarlet Crusade 
Shirt - Scarlet Filigreed Doublet

Have you signed up? Are you thinking about it? It's going to be heaps of fun!
