Tuesday (19 Apr) - One Easy Win, One Sad Defeat

Hunter Fortress is making a habit of coming in one bow short, and so it was on this Tuesday night, as Speak was detained and never made it in game. See, Bean, and Shevils carried our banner to victory in the first Warsong Gulch match, however, with the help of two other hunters from the Uldum server. It was a bloody battle - for our Alliance opponents, anyway. They were outsmarted and out-gunned at every turn, except that they had an irritating knack for stopping us from capping their flag. Our horde flag carrier kept getting caught up in the battle and forgot that he needed to cap the darn thing, too. In the end it was a 3-0 win for the horde and Hunter Fortress. Bean led the horde team in Honor Kills with an astounding 105 HKs.

The worm turned in the second WSG match. The Alliance was well organized, stayed in a large group, and consistently overwhelmed our strung out attack. Hunter Fortress acquitted ourselves well, with all three of us in the top five in damage dealing - and for once Shevils led all comers in total damage. Shevils did have a scary couple of minutes, though. Somehow the "Run" setting got turned to the "Walk" setting and Shevils found herself taking slow strolls in the grass instead of head long runs. Poo didn't quite know what to make of it. Our lone healer offered to be Shevils personal healer, an offer I had to turn down because I figured the night would be over before I ever got to where there was any action. I vaguely recalled that there was a slash involved, but it took See to remind Shevils that the correct command was found on the number keypad.

The battle went so sour that See and Shevils spent the latter part of the fight defending our flag with the score 0-2 against us. Knowing we had no chance, the Alliance also assaulted our graveyard for some honor farming. Bean got caught in the die-rez-die-rez-die not-so-merry-go-round for a bit until she could blast her way free. See and Shevils killed all comers after the flag for a good while, but with no help arriving we, too, were eventually given our own graveyard pass. We lost 0-3.

Small consolation, but Shevils was pleased when one of the horde team whispered her, gushing over how much he loved Poo and wanted one for himself. Poo blushed and offered him a banana. Poo loves attention, if you can't tell.
