Circle of Myths

In case anyone missed the earlier announcements, this year's guild gathering will be in Copenhagen from Thursday 20. to Sunday 23. of August. 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!

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.

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.

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!

We're re-opening recruitment after a much needed break to re-focus ourselves.

Please make sure you read all the available information that is available to you before posting an application.

It only takes a few minutes. Why not share what you can make with your crafting professions? Here's how, in 3 easy steps:

1. Install the addon RecipeKnown. If you use WoWMatrix, just fire it up and install from there.
   
2. Forget about it for a few days, just play as normal. (The recipes is recorded when you open your crafting windows, and written to a file when you log out.)
   
3. Go to the upload page and follow the instructions there.

While information from all your characters is recorded in the addon, when you upload it only information about Horde characters on Runetotem specifically will be added to the database, and even then you have to have your characters registered here. In other words, if your character is not in the guild, it won't show up.

Edit: Link fix.

Due to a temporary brain disconnect, I've had to roll back the database for the site this morning. There shouldn't be too much lost, just about 15 minutes or so. I don't believe there is any data lost, but there might be post or profile edits that has been reverted to a previous version.

Sorry for the inconvenience, those databases can be finicky.

Oooh, what does this button do ...?

Due to the size of and ongoing discussion about the organization of the guild, we are closing recruitment for an indefinite time.
