I'm Doomed

Thanks to a heads-up from
auryanne, I now know why someone posted (on my youtube vid) that there -are- female worgen in World of Warcraft: there is a big rumor that one of the next player-races could be the Worgen . If the ones discussing this are right, it's possible that the Worgen race would be an -Alliance- race, too! Goblins=Horde; Worgen=Alliance because of balance, their origins beyond Arugal's summoning and the fact that the masks look more poofy than current worgen design. Alliance Worgen?! Weird.

That was the one thing that could have gotten me into WoW. Doomed! (sings the "Doom Song" now)
I -was- surprised at how much rancor there is towards the thought of a worgen player-race, but then some of the commentors noted that ANY discussion about new player races results in irrational foaming-at-the-mouth by some posters. My favorite post/comment: "The bad: can you imagine all the furry porn this will generate? The good: can you imagine all the furry porn this will generate?" Bwa!
Maybe I will take Rolf* down and parade around a little.

Oh, and *score!* I got the second part of my prize for runner-up in that Blizzcon contest!
* Thanks for the photoshoot ,
muzek!

I've avoided WOW like the plague and not because I wouldn't like it. Fact is, I would be doomed as well. :D

If you know anyone with an extra ticket to sell, let me know (but it's not critical). I'm just amused by the idea of just wandering around in Rolph.

Date: 2009-07-22 07:45 pm (UTC)Yeah, I kind of figured that tickets would be scarce: Blizzard never ceases to amaze me at how a multi-gazillion dollar cash cow can muck-up something as simple as a convention. But maybe it's just the people I run with (who do convention-running as a serious hobby). Still, I just liked to go and gawk or enter the masquerade, so I wasn't too put off by not getting one. Tracy, on the other hand, was coming out from VA to see folks, so that gave me the impetus I needed.
