One or two big patches and then some smaller ones if I remember corectly. It shouldn't take you too long to get going after you get home.

Try emailing it directly to jacksonm@mts.net
And if you're a Wower join us on Sisters of Elune, hang out and play with local dignatiries like Rob MacPherson and Kerry Bonneteau.

What does cooldown time mean? In a WoW sense?
Certain powerful items and talents like a Paladin's Lay on Hands or an Alchemists Philosopher's Stone can only be used once and then they enter into a cooldown period before you can use them again.
It sucks when you're trying to turn a stack of Mithril into Truesilver and have to wait over a day between uses....

| | This is also true for spells and special abilities. If they have a cooldown, it means you cant use them again until the cooldown timer has completed. These topics should probably be discussed in the WoW thread though. | | | |

So, in 15-20 hours I'll have finished downloading my free world of warcraft trial. Perhaps my descent into darkness has begun.
I'm kinda feeling like that guy in all the zombie movies who is the only one left not chanting "Braaaainnns....." | |

And we're ordering pizza.
Dreamblade boosters are %50 off, help Scott move his stock, play a fun game, eat some pizza. Good times.
Plus our Beer Baron is getting lonely with all the WoWing going on. How can you resist?

One more sleep until commander time? I'll likely do the draft Saturday Afternoon/Evening and post the results here.
So far we have sheets for 14 people entered. The more the merrier so keep them coming.

| Well no official time was set, I figure the earlier everyone gets there the earlier we can start.
Possibly play a few rounds.

| 8 People out for Dreamblade last night.
Scott, Garret, Richard, Nico, Chris Smythe, Kerry, Phil, and myself. Richard ended up going 3-0 but I got some good pulls so it was all good.
4 people out for Star Wars minis today, Scott, Joseph and his nephew and myself. My 25 crazy fringers won the day, or at least the one game I played against Joseph. We got off to a slow start, the game ran long.... we diced off to see who won the tournament and it was me, so woohoo. I won a Garm Bel Iblis.
Only myself and Chris Love were down for D&D today. oh well. I didn't really have a warband ready anyway. | | | |

| Yay. Thanks mike.
There are some very interesting things to say about that draft. The fact that I didn't get the merc general or any of my LE commanders really surprises, but not as much as vlaakith not being taken, which is why I didn't get one of my other choices. | |

| Vlaakith was only ranked on 7 of the sheets and aside from you and me no higher than 5th.
Marco had the Mercenary general ranked #1 so there you go. Only 2 people didn't get their first choices. | | | |

Yeah, on my first glance through I missed the merc general going so early. Same with the Dark Naga, another thing I thought I'd get. I'm surprised there wasn't any love for the lich queen though. | |

Hey ....
Just wondering if Game Knight is open at all tomorrow (Dec. 24th)? I believe Scott said he was open until 4 but reserved the right to close at 2 if it was dead.

If anyone else wants to jioinm they may. Just pick two undrafted commanders and they're yours.
