More adventures
Well, I just finished shooting a movie, and so that means that Stabby Mcgee returns with a vengance. 4 days of being away can really add up when you're leveling with your friends, and when I logged on today I could see that there was some major catching up to do.
Stabby started his adventures the way he always likes to, by dancing with strangers. Actually, since his last post he's managed to get quite a few of them to join him, although a suspicious number of them are Tauren. He's not complaining, it just that Taurens are probably the worst dancers in the whole game. Is this why the AntiHeroes lack a substantial ammount of Taurens? Who can say?
Sadly, Stabby didn't bother taking any pictures of his breif return a few days ago, when he got his ass handed to him by a giant parrot. To make up for it, he decided to see if there were not more ridiculous sights that he could find. Instead, he just killed a lot of humans. And would you know it? They were hiding gold. Lots of gold. Piles of gold. Gold that could not be picked up. Stabby says it all.

For the first time in days, Stabby was making some serious progress, finishing off quests left and right, eventually leading him to the Raptor Grounds. Apparently no one ever told the raptors about cleaning up after themselves.

By the end of the session, Stabby had hit level 20, keeping him above Glyph, which is his only goal in life. And what better way to finish off a good session of playing then ripping off a Disney movie?

And that's all I've got. See you in the digial world!

I like to smash things!
Loktar!
My name is Glyph! I'm 6'3 with, emerald green skin, red hair and blue eyes. I like long walks in the barrens at night and partying it up in Orgrimar with my orcish buddies. My favorite colors are red and black. My favorite food is roast boar meat.
My friends say I have anger management problems... I know I can be "aggressive" at times but my axe is really just how I say hi. I like to be assertive and there isn't anything wrong with that. Anybody who thinks otherwise will end up unconscious in a puddle of their own blood and teeth.
***
One of these days I'll figure out how to attach pictures of my character to this thing. I've tried to do it, but I am quickly overcome by the urge to put an axe through my computer screen. The more I play an Orc in the digital world, the more I think like one. I hope I can still function in society by the end of the summer.

Allow Myself To Introduce... Myself
Well, I guess it's time to get this crazy party started. Allow me to present to you my character, the incomprable StabbyMcgee.
When the WoW expriment began, I originally decided to be a Rogue simply because it was a niche that had yet to be filled. It was then decided that I should be a troll based simply off the fact that they do Capoeria as thier dancing emote, which I've taken up over the past couple of years. Simple as that.
My goals for Stabby are pretty simple. He's going to 60 in the 3 months that I see myself playing the game. He's going to be a combat Rogue, with my current plan heading towards Two Weapon fighting mastery, and then eventually Cold Blood. I try to level him every day that I play him, although already at level 17 I see this is not going to be as easy as I'd like. His primary skills are Alchemy and Herbalism, so those are on the road to being maxed out as well. Oh, and he's a dagger fighter. I hope that he will be the master of stabbing, and if not that then pretty freaking good at it.
That's all I've got to say about my character. So there.
Actually, that's a lie. Stabby has a hobby. He attempts to goad level 60 players into dancing. So far he has had little luck, but he's hoping that some day soon he'll be able to get one of those oh-so-serious level 60s to join him in busting a move. Until then, he'll continue to just piss them off.

Genesis
And so it begins.
So, reader of the web, you have found yourself in a strange place, and perhaps you may be confused as what you will find here. Stay with me a while, and soon you will know all. For you see, here you will soon find the stories of the AntiHeroes, a band of adventurers and scallywags destined for infamy, bound together by their incessant desire for glory and because Kevin and Eliot made everyone play.
The World of Warcraft was changed forever on May 3rd (sooner for many impatient bastards, myself included) when a throng of gamers, both novice and hardcore, decided to embark together towards the creation of a guild, and to mark the summer of 2005 with endless sleepless nights spent in the land of Azeroth, claiming the digital world as their new playground.
In this journal you will find tales to make you laugh, cr-.... No wait, probably just to make you laugh. Or maybe vomit in disgust. Whatever your constitution however, I hope you will journey on with us, and share the tales of the AntiHeros.
It begins now.
Brent's fun fact of the day: Bloggers spell check suggests "anthrax" in lieu of "AntiHeroes". Now you know!

The super epic adventures of the group known as the AntiHeroes is destined to become legend in the world of Warcraft, but why not beat the lines and see it here as it happens? Follow the misadventures of our wacky crew as they run towards the level cap and the total destruction of any semblance of a normal social life.
