My week in WoW (and out of it too)!
Hello again CAW Crew!


It's Saeureon (or just 'Sae' if you prefer :D ) again, hoping you're all doing quite well! I was going to send in a voice submission this week, since it was mentioned I can do that now, but sadly I just couldn't find the time (or a working mic for my computer!) and so I'm left with writing to you once again.


So my week has been a busy one, and I didn't have as much time to dedicate to my endeavors in Azeroth as I had hoped I would. I still got some things done, though, so I guess it all worked out. I leveled Boulderhoof, my Iron toon, a little more and he now sits at level 23 while I decide where to level next. I wanted to continue through all of Azshara, but I started a questline that involved killing Night Elves and after managing to accidentally pull 6 mobs at once and very nearly losing Boulder in the battle, I figured I should find some new stomping grounds.


I also went and made a new toon (just a regular one, not a challenge toon) after listening to last week's episode! I thought Vrishna's 'Friday Night Noobs' idea sounded like so much fun, but I sadly don't have a level capped Horde character, so I challenged myself to try and see how fast I could get one to max. I created Saeureon the Blood Elf Paladin, who currently sits at 36. I'm hoping he'll be 40 or even close to 50 before the end of tonight. I was actually really surprised at how much fun I was having playing as a paladin, as I have a level capped one I barely touch these days. Maybe this will convince me to go back to my poor Alliance pally someday and give him the love he deserves. :P


I'd love to say that I did so much more in WoW this week, but I unfortunately got busy at work (I work with taxes, so this is basically GO TIME at my job) and I'm fairly certain my wife and I will be painting most of the rooms in our new house sometime this weekend. If we do, I'm hoping she'll let me take a break long enough to come enjoy your show live for once, lol!


I'll not keep you any longer and I hope you all have a very spectacular week!


Your friendly neighborhood druid,
Saeureon


My week in WoW
Morning Aprillian, Vrishna, Tedrah, Jeppy and everyone else who is listening to the show.


I'll say it now...long time listener, first time writing in and I want to say I love your show, I always make sure I listen and do try to catch the show live, but Saturdays in my house is crazy!!


Here is a little bit of information about me.


I'm name is Shinn I'm 39 and i'm from England and have been playing WoW since just before BC  came out and I love this game and the people who play it!


So my week in World of Warcraft has been a busy one, I have lots of alts to sort out as I have two accounts, one EU and one NA. Over on the Eu account I've been working on getting my 4th lvl 100, right now I'm 98 and the way I'm leveling up is by flying around doing pet battles. Its not the fastest way, but I'm trying to level lots of pets up to lvl25 so i can sell them on the Auction House. The daily quest that you get from the Menagerie can be tough, so I've been trying to get the right pets to win each fight. Its taken me nearly 3 weeks to get there, but this week I'm pretty sure I've got a team that can win most times. Also if you go to Tanaan, there are these pets that you can fight called the Tiny Terrors and I found these really hard, but I now have a team that can beat all but one of them.  If anyone wants any help with that let me know and i will try to help.
On the rest of my toons I'm doing Garrions missions and gold making, which I really enjoy! I know Jeppy is into gold making and the advice he gives out is always sound! Gold making has been slow this week due to most of my time doing pet battles, but I'm at around the 1.3 million mark and my plan is to get to 2 million by Legion.


My NA account is quite new and only have a couple of toons, one level 100 and a level 28. I haven't done very much this week, so not much to talk about. I have made a new toon on Earthen Ring and was hoping I could join Clan of Darkness as you guys and the people who write in or you have guest on your show seen like the kind of people I want to play Wow with. So can I please have an invite?

Long time listener, first time submission!

Hello, Ctrl Alt WoW dears!

Saeureon (that's Say-yer-eon) here! I've been listening to your podcast for quite some time and I've always wanted to send in something to get involved with you guys since I often can't be there for the live episodes. Really love what you all do, by the way - it really gets me interested in WoW time and time again.

So after much deliberation, I made a challenge toon. I'd been getting burned out on my main toon and wanted to try something new and exciting! Thus was the creation of my first Iron Man, Boulderhoof. He's a Tauren Druid on Earthen Ring-US (and looking for a home, if the Clans of Darkness are willing to have me! :D )

I had a very eventful couple of levels with Boulderhoof already, and he's only level 15. I think the most exciting moment was in Azshara when I was running from some naga and almost fell off a cliff. Thankfully, I got caught in between some rocks somehow instead of plummeting to my doom. I could quickly tell this was gonna be a much more interesting levelling experience than my main was.

I have been having a little trouble, though, as I normally play Alliance and I'm unused to all these Horde areas! How do you guys not get lost in Orgrimmar??

Honestly, I haven't done a whole lot outside of levelling Boulderhoof and running some old raids on my main to get mounts I don't get have.

Well, I must be back to work, so I'll leave you all with a fond farewell for now. Maybe if I can muster up the courage, I'll do this again. :)

Your friendly neighborhood druid,
          
Saeureon


Update from Canada
Hello CAW crew,

This is Constraxxone (Constraxxele in clan of Darkness)(pronounced just "Konstraks") Human Rogue on Thorium Brotherhood US alliance and Blood Elf Paladin on Earthen Ring :D

How was our week in WoW,

This week has been one of the most difficult and full of trials week in 11 years.  My wife got some bad news at emergency last Saturday and we had to go back to the Hospital multiple times this week for tests and Doctor visits.  We keep going to work as well as we need the money for everyday stuff like groceries and mortgage payments.  On Wednesday she phoned me on the Job to tell me that the her companion orange tabby of 17 years could no longer walk properly... Upon speaking to the Vet Doctor the conclusion and consensus was reached that our beloved Sassy would be laid to rest on Friday afternoon.  One cannot dismiss the compassion of the Vet who has cared for her all these years since she was a kitten, and we will miss her terribly and remember her full of life and spunk as she chases the other cat in the hallways.  Both Cats are Alpha Females.

I said how was our week in WoW at the top, and this was part of my week in WoW, I kept going to work to drive Tractor trailer and 5 ton everyday this week despite only a few hours of sleep, my time in WoW consisted of a few pet battles, my daily Heroic dungeon, a Battleground here and there, listening to Podcast while driving the vehicles and some very good twitter interaction.  I could have taken the week off due to stress, but the game I love made me able to manage these difficult circumstances with very little detriment to my work and keeping a positive attitude with my Co-Workers who depends on both my good looks and willingness to help :D

Thank you Aprillian, Vrishna, Teedrah, Marzana, Jeppy and all the other people who send sound clips in, You all put a big smile on my face when I have tears rolling down both cheeks in traffic.

I will try to send an audio next week as the quality would not be that great if I sent one in today...

For Azeroth,

Don, a.k.a. constraxxone
