What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been

He travelled around Azeroth and honored the Elders, he mended broken hearts by the dozen and became a love fool, he was evil to kids and left them stranded in remote places and ate sweets infront of them without sharing.

And as if that was not enough he joined the circus and joggled torches and extinguished fires everywhere he could get away with it. Maybe it was the circus that got to him, he took up drinking and was totally wasted for at least 2 weeks - when he came out of his blurry vision he began a world tour of trick and treating and started throwing pumpkins at everyone. He even stuffed himself with chocolate became a chocoholic and transformed himself into a rabbit. What a long strange trip this has been.

Big grats to Evillyn, as the first in CoM to complete almost all world event achievements, and getting the achivement "What a long strange trip this has beeen" along with a nice little violet mount.

Note the dates and the location for next year's CoMference: August 19th to 22nd in Ljubljana, Slovenia! After this years' rainy summer in northern Europe, CoM is gathering in the south i 2010. Luckily, the beautiful capital of Slovenia is the home town of several guildies. For the family people, did you know that Slovenia has a small coastline? You can plan for sun and beachtime in connection with the CoMference, how cool is that?!

Website sign-up problems

on Saturday 04 July 2009 - 04:43:01 | by Roic
It seems we've been having some issues with sign-ups lately. I was informed about this yesterday and tracking it down it turned out to be an option in the registration setting that sound like a good one to have set to on. Guess what, it's not. It tried to verify email addresses, but the verification failed. Always. /facepalm

It should work "as intended" now, apologies for any inconveniences.

We have several guildies living in the area around the lovely capital of Denmark, so there will be native guides to escort us safely(?) through the experience. Cya there!

Web site slowbieness

on Tuesday 16 June 2009 - 04:31:14 | by Roic
If you feel the website has been slow today, you're right. The reason the site has for dragging it's feet is not local, it's due to the fact that some code is fetched from wowhead.com every time a page load. This is for functionality and neat functions like pop-ups for gear when you hover your mouse over links for instance.

Well, wowhead has blown off it's head it seems. The site is no more. It has ceased to be. It's expired and gone to meet it's maker. It's a stiff. Bereft of life, it rests in peace. If you'd nailed it to a server it would be pushing up daisies. It's threaded processes is now history. It's off the twig. It's kicked the bucket. It has shuffled off it's mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin choir invisible. It is an ex-website!

Hopefully there's a backup available. But in the meantime, the functionality is somewhat reduced on this site.

Wanted: CoM PvP Battlemaster!

on Saturday 30 May 2009 - 02:47:19 | by Arabis
We would like to revive the guild PvP events again. Doing battlegrounds in guild groups were quite popular events up until about a year ago, when Blizzard changed the matching rules, making it almost impossible to get in as a big group, Luckily, they reversed that a while ago, so now we are looking for one or two persons with some PvP experience to organize and lead guild PvP events every second Sunday.

Do you see yourself proudly leading CoM into battle against the Alliance? Then please read the full post in the forum and reply to it.

TotW: Introspective

on Sunday 26 April 2009 - 02:37:32 | by Roic
Once in a while it's necessary to have a good look at oneself and find out how you're actually doing. Or, after unexpected performance, good or poor, ask yourself the question: "How the heck did I do that?". If the WWS stats show that you have insane critical hits, it's useful to know where they come from. As is knowing why exactly is some or all of your abilities have a high miss rate.

The statistics is very useful for analysing the reasons, but short on providing you with tools for how you can fix it. Enter some other sites to the rescue:
  • TalentChic - Helps you tweak your talents. Lists the most popular talent builds for each class.
  • BeImba - Analyses your character and points out and suggests missing or inappropriate caps, enchants and gems.
  • MaxDps - Gear analyser that helps you balance your kit and suggest upgrades/alternatives.

Bonus tip: If you have problems interpreting the statistics, it is a good idea to "crowdsource" it. Don't be afraid of posting questions in the Class forums to get help. Reading those pesky numbers isn't for everyone, but there's plenty of help available just for the asking.

Corynthia managed to get every single answer correct in the Easter Quiz. Some lucky guesses there, he admits! Closest competitors were Sisel and Meluzina, who both got 90% correct. 36 people did the quiz this time and the killer question was Jinngo's pets. Only five people got that one right.

Thank you all for participating!
