Imcute

im immune to pain meds unfortunately

not gunna make it tonight, have a bad headache, sorry. don't hate me :'(

i'm kind of surprised they didn't come off anyways.

To be clear, the reason it bothers us (or at least me, cant speak for Roq) is because we get it CONSTANTLY in our personal life, not just you all, and it gets pretty draining hearing it everywhere.

what will we do without our #1 DPS :'( also, I feel like I'm the last one to know about this and we talk all the time

hey guys, family event popped up today, my dads baseball team won the league championship and today he plays in the city championship so I want to go and support him, I hate missing raid, but its not often this kind of stuff happens, I'll be on tomorrow.

yay warlock babies! should get the baby an imp plushie. cablelockIII lvl 1 warlock.

tickets have officially been purchased! they raised the price unfortunately but me and roq covered the difference, we are looking forward to coming. thanks everyone!

thanks guys!

it would be 185-212$ instead of 276 if we bussed to Pittsburgh and hitched a ride with you the rest of the way so that might be a good option. me and Roqwell have been talking and weighing our options. we will definitely let you know as soon as we do what we decide on, and thanks for the help. I think Roq already PM'd unholy but i don't remember. All I know for sure is we have to buy bus tickets a week in advance so we still have plenty of time to figure everything out. Also: if we carpool what day should we arrive in Pittsburgh and what day would we be getting back in Pittsburgh after the party? depending on the days it could bring the price all the way down to 185 which is significantly cheaper.

^yeah, what she said.

louisville ky

its about a 12 hour drive

we are so far awaaaaaaaay

also I havent heard otherwise so i'm assuming roqwell will be there too

ill be there sorry im a little late replying

so yeah, i graduate next tuesday, getting my degree in graphic design and photography. woo! but yeah wont make it to raid, much sadness. I'll make it up by playing some gtav with you all sometime soon. im planning on being here next wednesday but to be completely honest, if someone is throwing a graduation party im gunna go party, but most likely i'll be here wednesday. peace peeps.

just a reminder, finishing up a photoshoot this week again so i'll be a little late tomorrow just like last week, if all goes well it will only be like a half hour again. after the next couple weeks i'l be graduating though, so all will be well. also my portfolio date got moved so I'll only miss the tuesday of my graduation in 2 weeks not the full week. peace peeps.

So I'm graduating this semester (YAY!) but unfortunately that means I'm gunna have a lot going on. so may 12th is my graduation day, its at 7pm also may 13th is my photography portfolio review so that week i wont be able to make raid at all. also I'm inviting roqwell to my graduation so depending on what she has going on that day she may or may not be here for raid either that tuesday, we'll have to see, I haven't really talked with her about it. also this Wednesday I'll be scouting a location for a photo shoot so odds are I'll be late, I'll be there probably but at least an hour late. anyway, I hate missing raid, but you only graduate once so I guess if anything else comes up I'll keep you peeps posted

haha, yeah well most of it was backed up, but the last week or so wasn't, which means a certain invitation I made for a nice black tie event has to be redone, and a few pictures re-edited. not a huge deal I guess, it could have been way worse.

hey, sorry for posting so late but i was really hoping i could make it. I lost a flash drive, 99% of what was on it is backed up, but some photos I took and some other work I have due tomorrow isn't, so I need to re edit and redo some work tonight... if somehow I get a call from someone saying they found it I'll be on immediately. if i finish up early I might get on, but at the very least I'll be late. sorry peeps.

is there a reason why this became an attack on my performance? I have skada, I'm aware I'm on the lower end of the meters on that fight, no I was not aware that i could set skada to just one type of enemy so thanks muln I'm not really complaining about your comments, they were constructive, and I do appreciate that. my only point here was that I wanted warning before getting sat guys, my dps may have been low overall but that doesn't mean I couldn't have met standards on dps on the primal elementalists, the problem we were having wednesday wasnt overall dps, it was dps on the primal elementalist, which I would have changed and will change for this week. Its a casual guild, that doesn't mean I can coast by with bad dps, but my dps is not that bad on every fight, and when my internet isn't giving me trouble I usually do pretty well on mechanics. I never said I didn't have room for improvement, I've done a lot this patch and switched to a spec I'm unfamiliar with to raise my dps which was garbage when I first joined, overall, I've been doing a little less than mastric who is playing demo, the best current lock spec, which I've been learning, but am not comfortable enough with to raid with yet. sure I need improvement overall, but my post was just asking for a warning. If anyone wants to talk with me about my performance thats fine but thats not what this forum post is about.

Ftfk said he would start sitting low performers on blast furnace at 9:00, because of an issue we had break before that so the time they sat people was at 9:30... we came back from break at 9, and the attempt after I called out the people who needed to step up, and made a general statement that we needed more dps on the Elementalist's, because we can't kill them all in 2 shots. saying each attempt was around 6-8 minutes, that is about 3-4 attempts to fix the issue. I guess since i'm not an officer i'm never heard/taken seriously. there was a general call out for more dps on them but names weren't given until the attempt before people were sat, but we never got to the second phase of that attempt so we couldn't correct it. I pay attention to teamspeak and I take everyones opinion seriously on there and I don't recall my name being said until then, and unless you were looking at the logs we really didn't have a for sure way of telling what our dps was like on them. I was prioritizing them and so i thought my dps was fine on them so i didn't feel the need to let my dots drop off other targets unless it was effecting my single target dps which it turns out it was, so my bad, but I could have fixed it if I knew I was a problem. It's not like most fight mechanics where its really blatant when you are fucking it up, if you get it by a train and die you know you fucked up, if oregorger rolls over you, you fucked up, if your dps is low on a certain target, it isn't as obvious, believe me, if I had heard my name called 4 attempts before hand I would have had no problem dealing with it. normally I don't have logs open during raid because you simply dont need all that info, but that is a fight where its obviously worth it.

I don't mind trimming people when we've been wiping on a boss all night, the fact that it is flex allows us to do that and it lets us down bosses and get gear so next time when we fight it then its easier to carry the lower dps or people who are failing mechanics, that being said, warning is nice. last week when we dropped people and i got sat i wasn't aware that i had low dps on the primals because im a multidot spec and although i made them my priority, overall i wansnt doing enough, but If i was allowed another attempt to fix my mistake im certain it would not have been a problem, but the people who were warned didnt get another try to fix our mistake. I have no problem sitting, and maybe i should have pulled up the logs myself during the fight to check myself, but getting sat with virtually no warning sucks, that's my 2 cents.
