No king rules forever
And thus ends the reign of Arthas Menethil, once proud Prince of Lordaeron and paladin of the Silver Hand, by the blades and magic of Sunder.
Also, Phaj is more awesome than Lightstar, because he sends me killshots.
Baseball in Sunder works like this.
Making fun of Dufusdwarf KurisutoFAIL DD never gets old.
We don't always make fun of DD, sometimes we make fun of hunters too!
Proof that some of us need to get out more and meet real girls.
Arguing esoteric topics, Sunder style.
Priori bought himself a rice rocket jet engine car!
And Sel. . . . . has issues.

Fail of the Lich King
Ding dong the king is dead, long live the new king!
Congrats guys on the kill! No one sent me a kill shot, so in the grand tradition of Hyrax, everyone gets a X'ed out picture.
PS: DD protects pickles.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
But at least Ayana has head. Congrats tree puncher on Mimiron's Head!

Some Light in the Darkness
This may or may not be the update you're looking for. I might be the gnome playing the gnome, disguised as another gnome. But I do come bearing updates.
First up:
Congratulations to everyone for sticking it through the Ulduar hard modes! May your ironbound proto-drake be ever speedy and rust free!
And now for my favorite part about doing updates! First up to the docket, Hadar showing off his English grammar lessons.
For any long established guild, there will always be old players who retire from the active game but still drop by to say hello every once in a while. Retirement affects them in strange ways.
Tatertot enjoys long walks in the meadow, getting caught in the rain, traumatizing our officers . . .
and traumatizing the rest of the guild.
Our Canuckistan brethren are an odd bunch.
In the course of leveling for Lich King, sometimes our guildmates lose things. Important things.
And never let it be said that WoW is the only game we play.
Finnien's tradition of everlasting gnome hate continues. . . .
Our GM who art in Blizzard, hallowed be thy game.
F=MA
And sometimes the screenshot just speaks for itself.

Sauntering through Ulduar
So the last few weeks Sunder's been busy progressing and beating crap up in Ulduar. People may wonder where the killshots are and some even thought we went on hiatus due to my lack of updates here. But rest assured, the lack of updates here is not due to inactivity of the guild, but due to being an overworked, underpayed, overkilled, whipping gnome. And if you saw through that tripe as soon as I said the dreaded g-word and figured out that, really, I"m just being lazy at updating, you get a cookie. (See Tater for said cookie)
Besides being lazy, part of the reason as to why there aren't constant updates is due to the breakneck speed at which we were downing bosses. Some of the earlier bosses such as Flame Leviathan and XT-002 we tore through and moved on before realizing, "hey, we need a screenshot." It's usually at that point of realization that the boss's corpse was engineered for scrap parts like saronite bars and motorcycle parts rendering the possibility of a killshot moot.
The first killshot that I managed to get was Kologarn:
where the raid tried as a group to play soccer with his head. Didn't work too well.
This was rapidly followed by downing Auriaya: the boss that no one refers to by name but by the obvious title "Crazy Cat Lady"
The next four bosses didn't leave corpses since we don't exactly kill them.
Here's Hodir after we freed him, for example:
Hope you enjoy the crotch shot as much as I enjoyed having to look up his kilt to get a good image of him.
And here's is the trash tank that Mimiron leaves behind after we free him.
I was lucky to get this screenshot before some rabid engineer (me or Hadar, probably me in this case) quickly disassembled the corpse for more spare parts.
After freeing the 4 Titans (3 titans and 1 gnome-thing, really) we then proceed to kill General Vezax:
Kind of an amusing fight but can easily go from fun to "%!#$@" in a matter of seconds, especially if you get chain targeted for life tap then shadow crash then life tap and so on... Highlight of this fight, my incinerates can often go below GCD, wheeeee
Finally, the big nasty himself: Yogg-saron. Fight's very similar to C'thun of yesteryears, especially the Big (and Small) Tentacles of Various Dooms, with the chaotic nature of Vashj.
In the theme of going insane for fighting this boss, we all turned into rabbits after she/he died.
Some even stripped naked in the middle of their madness
So that was that.
Oh there were the optional bosses that we skipped at first and came back later for. They seemed rather irrelevant after killing the big bad insane-in-the-membrane thing so I keep forgetting to get kill shots.
Anyway, on to hard modes and the quest for the proto-drakes!
