The style of writing does vary from time to time and often may be viewed as self-indulgent prattling. There are many times I am horribly, horribly wrong or miss certain painfully obvious things. Some would say this adds to the charm. Likewise, grammatical and typographical errors likely abound. There is no excuse for this aside from sheer laziness.

It's a me, Strevnor!

To say Azeroth Inc is an active guild doesn’t quite do it justice. Due to very aggressive churn, we stay at around 950-1000 members, with 25 or so being replaced every day. At any given time we’ll have between 45 and 100 online. Everyone does their own thing, but we have guild event of various flavors to cater to the masses. Tuesdays are RP events and Social Gatherings. I had nothing pressing after clearing out my daily pet battles, no I signed up for the event: a costume party.
No other criteria was mentioned. So, I figured “what the hell”. I’d treat it like a Halloween costume party and decided to make myself a Mario mog. A half hour and 2k gold later, I have a look I like that’s ‘good enough’. Just in case someone didn’t get it, I named a baby raptor Yoshì because OF COURSE the proper “Yoshi” was a reserved name. I had a few pet biscuits in the bank that doubled the size of the pet “as long as it remains by your side”, so I was all set for a party.

[So, sorry-- blog readers. This is a placeholder for now!]

Long story short, about 15 of us chilled out in voice chat and played around drinking and admiring each other’s mogs. I was the only one who went ‘full theme’, with most attendees dressing up in various fancy dress attire.
Apparently my Mario was a hit. I was declared “winner”—and was showered with a ridiculous amount of prizes: 10k in gold, 40k worth of mounts, 200k worth of transmog gear, and a few pieces of assorted clothing.
Definitely worth shaving the beard for.
