Epic Puck

the blog renewed.

by puck on Aug.24, 2010, under Blogging, Coding

The theme looks good.  I really liked the previous theme because it tied in very well to my gaming.  This theme does well to demonstrate the change of direction of my blog .. development.

I look forward to your comments, suggestions and encouragement.

Thanks!

… time to call it.

by puck on Jul.12, 2010, under Gaming

For once, I do not have a ton to say – kinda :D . After a year of thought, it is time to call my raid.

I will be retiring from the game on the 19th of July.

That is tough to read, but it is there. I have found my interest in playing in any fashion very difficult over the last months. I tried to re-invent myself with Arenas, Heroic Raids and even Insane. To no avail. I think some of my negativity has bled over into raids and affected people. For that I am very sorry. After all, we are supposed to be having fun – no matter what our brand of fun is :ninja: .

I think it is time for me to focus on some of the things in life that I have been neglecting like my hundred year old home, my wife and my education. Yep, Puck is finishing his degree :ugeek: .

I wish you all the best and will miss playing this game with you.?

My blog will become more of a tech blog than a gaming blog sometime in the future.

Linksys WRV200 Hanging

by puck on Jul.11, 2010, under Hardware

For months now my WRV200 would freeze when I attempted to log in to it.  That is, when you logged into it, the page would “say” that it was loaded but there was nothing displayed in the browser.  I would reset the router and be on my way – surfing or gaming.

Today I flashed it to version 1.0.39 and it appears to have fixed the problem.  The throughput seems to be a but peppier but that is such a circumstantial term.

I will keep you posted.

Halion 10 Normal – Down!

by puck on Jul.08, 2010, under BrotherHood, Raiding, Screenshots, Strategy, WoW, wotlk

Halion 10 Normal

Well done BrotherHood on another First Kill!

The team stuck with it and learned how to dodge lazers!

Phase 1 – shouldn’t need explanation. don’t stand in it. run out to be cleansed/cured.
Phase 2 – avoid the lasers. avoid the breath.
Phase 3 – same as Phase 1 and 2 only the raid is split.
