Weekly Roundup 3/23/07

by Brandon

What happened this week? Truthfully I don’t know.

Monday I wondered why Blizzard can’t get a decent forums up for their site after two years. Why are we still using a partially working crap pile even after the update? Blizzard’s need to re-invent the wheel instead of using the many available forum softwares in existence is just silly.

Speaking of Blizzard and stupidity, Tuesday I found some obviously fake patch notes. Why obviously fake? Because they actually spend time buffing and fixing the classes. Silly noobs, lrn2blizzard, just nerf the shit out of everything and see what happens.

On Wednesday there was an interesting topic about sponsored Arena teams in World of Warcraft. Will MMOGs be the next huge contenders for the professional gaming market? Later that day we hit up the Repairing Gears topic, its debut at it’s new daily slot. Sadly, no diagrams.

The Highlight of the Week was something Blizzard managed to do nicely. Well, more like in typical Blizzard fashion. They put out a great raid attunement chart that is easy to understand and nice to use.

Next week…diagrams on the Repairing Gears.
