So I was thinking since I spend quite a bit of time playing World of Warcraft, which is filled with idiots and lovely people, I would start putting together some experiences and throwing them together for you guys to enjoy and such, unless this becomes boring, then it will die, like everything else I love! For those curious, I just got back into WoW, and got an annual pass, so there's a solid year of me playing at the very least.

I started a new character on Arthas, and am essentially disregarding all my other characters, I am starting fresh. This means that my new main is my hunter (currently level 53) named Shuffleboard. I got back into the game because MANvsGAME a Twitch caster that I recently started watching very actively started a guild for his fans on the server. While I can't guarantee you access to the guild unless you start watching MAN, if you have a character on the Arthas Alliance side, we can certainly group together for dungeons and such.

I am going to say right now, this is the first character I have ever played right on WoW. And by that I mean on my old characters, I absolutely never did PvP or dungeons, I did PvE and nothing else, I joined a couple guilds in a very minor capacity, and had almost no knowledge of the games workings. On Shuffleboard, I have been PvP'ing a little bit, and I queue for a dungeon at least once or twice every time I am on. I am also trying a new proffession (jewelcrafting) and I am currently further on a hunter then I have ever been, so I am essentially in new territory. Doing the dungeons and PvP, besides just getting me better gear than I ever had before, has really taught me how to play the game better, and has shown me the good and bad of the player community.

And that is really what brings me here for the first Tales of WoWnder (Shut up, I like the name). Today I was doing a random dungeon off the queue, at level 53 it ended up being the first section of Blackrock Depths, I don't remember which area, but it was the first of the set. Obviously I queue as DPS (MM Hunter) and so it takes a decent 10 minutes to get a full group together. The first time I got into the dungeon, the healer left immediately, and we ended up trying our hand anyway, the tank was decent, but he just couldn't take the beatings, and inevitably died, leaving me dealing with a lot of angry mobs. We wiped a couple times before the first boss, and the party fell apart. 

I queued again, and after the 10 minute wait, I got back in, this time our healer stayed, and we made it to the first boss. I got picked off by some mobs that we left behind, and had to release to the graveyard and scurry back to the group. We took out the big molten son of a bitch. We moved on, and after another boss, we lost one of our DPS'ers. We weren't too butthurt about it, and we moved on. A little further in, our healer complained about something and left. We requested more players, and after a couple minutes we got a new healer. It was then that our tank decided to take a phone call for about 15 minutes, and we patiently waited. The other DPS and the healer and I talked about various stuff like what we had been doing in game, what we watched on TV and the like.

Our Tank finally came back, and we headed to the next boss. We got him down to about 10% and everyone died but me. I was able to make my pet tank for just long enough for me to kill him, after pulling out some kitchen sink shit. Everyone res'd from the graveyard, and we moved on. That is until our Tank disconnected due to internet issues. We waited a little while and he finally came back. And then, for whatever reason, we just stopped moving forward. I think our tank was done with the dungeon's quests or something, and we just flatlined for like 20 minutes.

The party eventually dissolved, and I had put nearly 3 hours total into trying to finish this damn dungeon section. I will say, the group I ended with was quite a bit of fun. The Tank pushed through some issues, the rogue was a goofy son of a bitch, and the healer was willing to try healing a rogue tank and a pet scorpion tank while our main Tank was on the phone or DC'd. That being said, I spent way longer and way too much effort trying to get past the first part of Blackrock Depths, and that's why I shall dub it "The Dungeon that Won't Die" at least until tomorrow when I inevitably beat it.

Hey guys, your chaotic guy here. I feel bad, as usual for not having any content at all for the site, for all 4 of you that visit everyday looking for new episodes or posts. I have been really busy with work, my weekly podcast regarding video games. I wish that Chaos Buffering had as much of a required weekly vibe to it, but it just never has those deadlines like that other podcast.

That being said, I am trying to get back into weekly Chaos, because every time I take a break, more and more people complain/ask about new episodes. An episode went live last Friday, and there is one scheduled to be recorded this weekend as well as next weekend. So there is at least a little bit of new stuff coming, and I will certainly try and get back into the swing of things. 

So onto what I have been doing. I have been working a lot as usual. I am also looking into going back to school for Computer Science, which is looking more and more impossible with my full time job, but hey I can still give it a try. I'm still trying to write when I have free time, as well as produce podcasts and such. Beyond that, I have been gaming... a lot. I recently got back into World of Warcraft, and yesterday I did the annual pass so I could get Diablo III for free. So WoW has been taking up a lot of time. I already have a level 53 hunter named Shuffleboard (I am  awesome like that) and my most recent pet is a scorpion named Pinchy. I am also spending a whole hell of a lot of time watching MANvsGAME on Twitch.tv as I talked about on the most recent episode. You can find me there in some capacity pretty much every weekday after work until the end of the day. That's the reason I am back into WoW, and also a big reason I am trying to get back into Chaos Buffering, because I have met a whole slew of new people I want to podcast with. 

Speaking of that, I am completely willing to do Chaos Buffering every week. The hard part is finding people to be on. I can just willy nilly ask people on twitter or G+ or whatever, but eventually I am going to run out or be going through people over and over. So, if you want to be on the show (there are no real requirements at all) or if you have someone you want me to have on the show, let me know on twitter or at the show email. I will certainly have anyone on that wants to be on, and try to have on anyone you guys suggest.

And then there is this thing. The site itself, which still sits solely as a place to find the new episodes other than iTunes. I really want to start doing more stuff on here, but as previously stated, I have no idea what that should be. I was thinking since you guys all miss Phil so much, I could start doing updates regarding that man as I get them. I do talk to him every other week or so, and could certainly talk about how he is and what not if anyone was interested. Beyond that I suppose I could use this as a repository for all the weird/crazy shit I find around the internet. I could start doing some blogging I guess, some reviews, I was talking about doing stuff like shitty movie monday, which i could still do I guess. 

So basically that's it. If you care to suggest something you can tweet me, leave a comment down below, send an email, or what have you. Keep checking back and maybe just maybe you will start seeing stuff here other than the very occasional episode of Chaos Buffering.

This week on the podcast, there's a fucking podcast. Live to tape baby, with guests Michael Banta and Josh Jaycox. We talk of deadly squirrel armies, the highest superhero ever concieved, and somebody suggests a porn site as their reccomendation. All this and more on this weeks wildness loading, or whatever this is called.

Guests: Michael Banta and Josh Jaycox
