I loved the goblin zone, the whole feel of actually having a role in the plot as something other than Mage #3 in the 25 man raid felt great. Having a backstory to your character as the protege of the trade prince just made the whole zone feel flavorful. Also my rocket boots are on CD 100% of the time, playing around with those has been one of my favorite moments in WoW so far.
Least favorite thing about the expac that I have experienced so far has to the lack of flight points into Mt. Hyjal. I had to find all the flight points in the neighboring zone before finding the single flight path that connects Moonglade to Hyjal.
As a druid, I'm loving a quick "Teleport: Moonglade, Swift Flight Form (310%)" into Hyjal.
The fact that gaming is becoming socially acceptable and market is a lot safer to go into mean that a lot of mainstream games are going to be geared towards a larger audience as much as if not more than they're geared towards quality. However, Valve would like a word with you.
Valve can remain locked in its cell until it gives me Half Life 3.
"Good Morning everyone, welcome to 'Up Early with Ed'. I'm your host Ed Coal, and today we're catching up with the team that's been taking the leagues by storm - Ace's Aces.
Fortunately for all involved, the team hit its stride yesterday, picking off a scummy character within their midst - they nefarious fellow they nicknamed The Ice King. Well, that king has left the building, folks.
Despite building on individual players' strengths, the team could do little to avoid a mid-night injury. One of the base umpires that the team brought along for league games, Syrenz, Base Umpire, Vanilla Town, was found gutted on his hotel room floor this morning. Our condolences go out to that funky cat's friends and [Family].
There's only four players left on the team - barely enough to field a team. If they don't act soon, this season's going to crash and burn, forever tarnishing Ace's Aces' good name. Let's pray that doesn't happen, ladies and gentlemen.
Oh, what's that? Yes...I think the team is heading back onto the field for what could be their final game! I'm excited folks, and you should be too!
It's Day 5! There's four people alive, so that means it's gonna take 3 to make sure that lynch sticks!
Get to it!"

Day 5 commences with four players alive. It takes 3 to lynch.
The Ice King – 5

With 6 alive, it took 4 to lynch.

The team had quite obviously planned out this game from the start. Bunts and slap-hits ensured that runners got on base nice and early, with big hitters putting the runs across later in the game.
The game ended up as 12-4 in the team's favour. As they retired to the change-rooms, The Ice King spoke up.
"Hey guys, so who do we want off the team tonight?"
The team paused. Syrenz was the first to pipe-up.
"Wait a second. If there was...and you can't....so there can't be. A-ha!"
Diggy nodded. They understood the situation. The town closed around The Ice King with the all too familiar lynch-rope held in-tow.
The Ice King slumped his shoulders in defeat.
"You'll never take me alive!" he cried. Spinning, he clenched the rope around his neck and broke his neck.
It was clear that The Ice King was Left Fielder, Mafia Goon.
The team heads home, satisfied in the knowledge that this farce would soon draw to a close.

It is now Night 4. Get those actions in within 48 hours (from this post)!
Day breaks and the team decides to hit the showers in preparation for what promises to be a long and exhausting day.
Shalako is the first to discover that the water isn't coming on. Diggy and The Ice King try all the shower heads with little luck.
Agitated by these proceedings, the team heads down to the boiler room. After some poking around, they spy drops of red water pooling around the base of the water tank. Syrenz opens the tank, immediately regretting doing so.
The stench of Joboman, Shortstop, Vanilla Town, rises from the tank.
The team retreats to their dugouts. Each hopes this day ends as soon as possible.

That's a no lynch.

At the end of a stressful day, the team decides they wish to 'declare' and go into the next innings without penalty.
Without further ado, the team retires to their quarters, eager to finish this game once and for all.

Night 5 lasts 48 hours. Get your night actions in asap!
A deadline of 14 days has been put in place.

Day 5 continues.
Expect a deadline if activity continues to drag.
Just checking in. Been super-busy with university and work lately. Hopefully have time to come back soon during the holidays.
Please consider this an informal inactivity prod for all players.
Please pull up your collective socks and start posting.
I played about an hour or so and turned it off in frustration. I'm not sure why, but I can't stand more than about 30 minutes of that game.
