Ctrl Alt WoW Episode 440 - Ram Racing Across the Azeroth!

Aprillian, Leeta and Rogueslayer, (hey, what about me ????  lol), discuss another week of playing World of Warcraft, Blizzard's greatest MMORPG. The show features audio segments and email submissions from our lovely listeners.
If you want to join the conversations on the show, we have a live chatroom with in-game giveaways moderated by chatroom-chick Marzana. We record every Friday at 6 p.m. EST / 8 a.m. (Sat. Australia’s time), on our Ustream page!
We also have an ongoing contest. Send an email to ctrlaltwow@gmail.com telling us how you play WoW, either as an altoholic or dealing with it in your family life to being placed in a drawing for a WoW Pet or an Authenticator.


Juuno’s delightful adventures


Hello Ctrl Alt Wow darlings!  No audio from me today...I just woke up after sleeping for about 12 hours, hahahaha.  I was SO tired!!!  But I wanted to say hello and let you know I'm thinking of you.  Didn't get any gaming done this week, thanks to work and sewing and Ogre dragging me out to a show last night, but wthat's alright...I'm hoping to get a little done this coming weekend.  That's not to say that I didn't do anything Warcraft related this past week though, because I did...but it's super secret so I can't tell you about it yet... hehehehe... (secrets are the worst, aren't they??) This one is Blizzcon related, but that's all I can say this week.  I did see that the Pet Battle Bonus Event is going on right now (till the 28th) so I hope you guys are all pet battling!  Speaking of pets, and I know this is old news now but I don't think I've mentioned anything about it, but I am SO EXCITED for the Murkidan Pet that we're going to get this year for Blizzcon!!!  Every time I see a picture of him, I get excited all over again... I think he's going to be my favorite pet ever.  *squeeeeeee!*  Okay, I just needed to get that out, hehehe.  
So have you been doing the Harvest Festival?  They have a poll over on battle.net asking what other two heros (out of the list provided) that you'd chose if you could honor one or two additional ones!  The poll is going until the 28th, and I picked Cairne Bloodhoof and Rhonin... I think both of those would be great ones to add if Blizzard was going to add some, but you'll have to check out the whole list and see what YOU think!  =D
Alright, I'm heading out today to check on my IRL Garrison...hoping the spiders have finally stopped trying to take over, but we'll see.  

I love you guys & gals!  
/great big hugs & kisses!  *muah!*  :-*
For the Horde, for the Alliance, and for Cairne!  
This is Juuno of Earthen Ring and Korialstrasz


p.s. I attached two pics from last week... one of what happened when I put my "Jewel of Hellfire" toy on (sexy!), and the other is just me being happy to fly... hehe... xoxoxox!

Vrishna

Knucklerot Tactics
Here is the very definition of a BAD IDEA. Goldenmist Village ramped building. Perched above, pet sent below. Him, level 21 elite. Me, level 16 (1.28) and STILL running away like a scared little girl ..... in pigtails.

It's all in the timing !
Knucklerot down. Lurzan to go !
WoWScrnShot_092015_145036.jpg
Unwanted Assist
Random adventurers trying to help no doubt, or snipe. But I'll assume the former. Regardless, killed Lurzan twice on GP !
WoWScrnShot_092015_145457.jpg
On the bright side ...
My first death not of PURE stupidity. Just PARTIAL stupidity. 1.28 down.
WoWScrnShot_092015_154804.jpg
WoWScrnShot_092015_162537.jpg
How the heck did THAT happen ?
1.29 down and out. I swear ! One second I thought I was doing great and the next I'm worm food ! Feeling a bit worn out, i must admit, having gotten to level 22. At this juncture, I am guessing that entering caves of any kind is a risk while Iron Manning. Screenshot.
WoWScrnShot_092215_103810.jpg

Just a cool shot !
WoWScrnShot_092315_181324.jpg

OK, she GOT ME !!
Reason number ? It was cruel, it was unusual, it was punishnment  …. Itr was also HILARIOUS !
WoWScrnShot_092415_144816.jpg

How the heck did that happen Part Deux !
Whilst turning in a quest ganked by mobs ! How is THAT normal ??? Just before podcast, SO depressing.

Hay fever has sprung
So I had plans to play more this week but life and freaking hay fever stopped that I did get some time on postmortem during pirates day but saw varishna my arch nemeses was also on so I was forced to flee. After that out of game issues kept me away I played a few games of herthstone this week but that was about the full extent of my play time.

For the horde

For the alliance

For the Sandgrophers

And for surviving the 1 in a 1000 shots after all you just pay attention to the 1 and let the others look after themselves.


Rigarmorty Audio
Greetings CAW Crew,

Apologies for the lack of emails the past couple of weeks, it's all been quite busy. i've at least been getting a little Wow time in, levelling my new Tauren Boomkin. Hopefully i'll be in the chatroom for a bit.

For the Horde,
For mutated owls,
For the lovely CAW family.

Cheers,

Rigarmorty
