This Weekend: DrunkRaid ZG Style!
Friday, March 14, 2008 by C. Carter
This weekend marks the first official Frequently Reported DrunkRaid since the formation of the guild. Granted, there's been plenty of drinking at most every hour by someone in the guild at any given time, but this time it is official and mandatory!*So where are we heading? The instance where Brad and I swore to never return to: Zul'Gurub, a 20 person raid in the Stranglethorn Vale zone of Azeroth! The precise night is yet to be determined, but all things point to most likely the evening of Saturday, March 15. Any and all players with a toon level 55 or higher are welcome to participate on a first come, first invited basis (necessary classes the exception).
Plan on having some fun, but also know that I'm looking at this as sort of a test run to see how well we can work as a group as we preparare for our entry into Karazhan. Also be warned that both Frank and Brad love wiping the raid group as the night grows drunk... err, I mean long... and Dannielle has a tendency to fall asleep. Me? I just get bitchy. :)
So, bring some booze. Bring some snacks. Bring gold for the inevitable repair bills associated with DrunkRaiding. There will be some drinking rules, which will be forgotten over the course of the night, but don't worry about it. It will be fun.
Insofar as the much coveted items we've all drooled over since ZG came out, those bosses will be on a Master Looter with a (1-100) roll by the entire party. One epic ZG mount per person, please - no doubling up! For the people completely out of the loop, those items are:
The rest of the instance will be on a Group Loot basis, including the Primal Hakkari Idol and Punctured Voodoo Doll drops. Incidentally, regarding the mounts: Brad and I raided ZG every possible opportunity for over three months and saw one - ONE - mount drop in all of the countless times we fought either High Priest Thekal or Bloodlord Mandokir. Don't get your hopes up!
* If you are under the age of 21, you are by no means compelled to break the underage drinking laws. In fact, I'd rather you didn't. It saves your ass from getting in trouble with the folks, and saves my ass from some potential trouble with the law. With all of that said, underage members and non-drinkers of any age are welcome to participate.
"Granted, there's been plenty of drinking at most every hour by someone in the guild at any given time"
99% of that time it is me or Frank...GG Alchies
We actually may consider doing AQ next time. There is some very nice NR gear that Chris will want if we ever do Gruuls.
I like DrunkRaiding almost as much as I like cheese... o.O
I will be there with my Bourbon on, prepare yourselves or much giggling and "mean" spirited comments and know that I <3 you all.
And you damn well better show up. I hate when people puss out.
