So yeah, myself and Ceon died last night

Friday, February 4th, 2005 | Life

Actually it wasn’t just us two – it was pretty much all NTL customers in Leeds, York, Harrogate, Middlesborough and Huddersfield. NTL suffered a rather large network failure last night at around 8 pm. My internet did not come back on until 12 noon today which was mighty annoying.

Last night I actually got some guides written for World of Warcraft just because I was unable to play ;). I was about to do a trade with someone when I was disconnected from the server. Although I have managed to grag myself away from the game this afternoon to do a little work.

There is a reason why I managed to drag myself of WoW actually and it isn’t will power. It is the fact that my character will be wiped when the game officially launches. So it feels a little pointless. When it launches next Friday though I will be once again totally addicted to the game :D.

I also need to catch up with my daily news sites as due to the downtime yesterday I was unable to post anything. I will probably just back date the stories though as it isn’t my fault if my connection went down. It did suck badly though.

I got my call and got on WoW

Ok so I finally got my call from Warner Brothers. He was a really nice guy actually, maybe it is just the American accent but anyways basically the problem was as expected, confusion between my site and the official site.

Being the nice guy I am, I said I would change the site name which is why the site is now entitled The OC Perspective. That is of small importance compared to what is currently consuming my life however – Blizzard Entertainment‘s World of Warcraft is slowly taking hold of me and there is nothing I can do to stop it.

This game is so awesome! I was up at 6 am playing it this morning excluding taking time out for a few school engagements and early this morning taking some time out to fail a 3rd driving test, I have been playing all day. So long doing the work I needed to do.

It was worth it though I am already a level 7 and am approaching level 8. I also started tailoring and got up to about level 15 on that, what I really want to get up to though is being able to make bags. I need to be level 30 or something to do that though and my recipies need leather now. I might become a skinner.

There is no doubt that I shall be writing more on this subject but I really am so busy playing the game I don’t know when. I haven’t been back to Buffy Talk for ages and that is like my online home. Once I get past the first mad addiction however, I should have more free time.
