My liner notes.

In Uncategorized on June 29, 2009 at 1:42 pm

So when is WoW.com going to do a story on WoW song parodies? I’ll even save them the trouble of digging through the archives of Pretty in Plate. Here are the liner notes for Jessika’s greatest (and only) hits:

  1. I Would Do Anything for Threat (But I Won’t Do That). This was my first and remains one of my favorites.
  2. Can’t Crit This. It’s incomplete, a demo if you will, but I don’t think more is necessary. Ahhh…remember the days of the 490 def cap?
  3. Tree of Life. How many trees have their own song? Tanks, if you want to get teh good heals, you gotta work for them.
  4. The Newbie. I wrote much of this in my head while in the car after hearing The Freshman on the radio.
  5. Let’s Do Lots of Dailies. Pet Shop Boys = win.
  6. Badges for Nothing. My second Dire Straits parody. I want to do one for Romeo and Juliet (Romulo and Julianne) but it hasn’t quite come together yet. This one rocks.
  7. Can You Read My Mind? This one is lacking for some reason. I wanted to write something kinda sappy and nostalgic, and at the time I really liked The Killers’ song, but it’s a bit meh.
  8. Found Out About You. I really like the way this song came together. I was disappointed that I didn’t get a smart-ass comment from someone.
  9. I’m in a Raid. Heh. Salty Jess. And yes, I’ve tried to do something with Jizz in my Pants — something about losing or gaining threat maybes.

Srsly, wtf?

One thing I do like about blogging is the feature where I can see what Google searches hit Pretty in Plate. Usually they aren’t very interesting, but today something caught my eye:

I’m speechless, but Jess is keeping her top on.

Matching staffs and Lemarchand’s box?

Here’s a couple of miscellaneous screen shots. First we have one of hunters, Chachi (his pet is named Joni), and his crit-chicken bedonkaboomkin wife, Indigogo. Awww…matching staffs!

The other is from a recent dinner with Moroes in Karazhan to get his secret recipe for mongoose. I’ve never noticed that cube hanging in the air before. What the hell is that?

Topping the meter!

I don’t know why people give me such a hard time when I heal our raids. I am topping the meter afterall.

Note to self: Having your graphics settings turned way down during the Razorscale encounter makes it a bit hard to see the fire on the ground. Thanks Paradise, and thanks Failboat. ;)

The first rule of raiding.

In Uncategorized on June 15, 2009 at 2:00 pm

Vel asked me the other day the secret to a good raid. Ok, she didn’t, but I have a good imagination. Mal taught me everything I know about leading a raid.

Jess: It ain’t all macros and meters little mage. You know what the first rule of raidin’ is? Well I suppose you do, since you already know what I’m about to say.

Vel: I do, but I like to hear you say it.

Jess: Love. You can know all the theorycrafting on the ‘net, but take a raid in an instance you don’t love, it’ll fall apart just as sure as the turning of worlds. Love keeps it up when it ought to wipe, tells you it’s hurtin’ before it fails. Makes it a home.

Kosmic Keredria and a problem with a Gnomish transporter.

Here are some misc screenshots from a recent raid. First I present to you Kosmic Keredria. I think the headband really completes this new look for her.

The other screenshots are of our two Nelf rogues, Atania and Terrondris. We warned them to not use the transporter at the same time.
