BRB, Vomiting IRL.
The Suicidal Zebra — I hate Brewfest. Really, seriously hate it. It's not the endless grind for Brewfest Tokens which makes me think that trying to get the Violet Protodrake is a futile exercise. It's not missing out on a Brewfest Mount or Direbrew Remote in every single roll, no matter how many times I run that git Coren. It's not even listening to those Goblins sing every time I step just outside Orgrimmar. Actually, that's kinda catchy. No, it's that god damn fucking awful in game drunk effect. What were those bastards ...

Mages Love Pallies and How to Die in Onyxia
I am a Paladin... — ... just quite yet. Then at that moment, Onyxia landed in front of me, tail facing me. I got tail swept for 1.5k and punted right in to the whelp eggs, death on landing. A poor druid that tried to rez me after we downed Onyxia instantly spawned whelp adds from all the eggs surrounding me and died. =X It was pretty funny though, a spectacularly WTF death. Anyway, I hope you guys are enjoying the new patch! I'm still trying to finish up Brewfest and getting the Violet Protodrake! =D ...

Breakfast Topic: Violet relief
WoW.com — ... Some of you might have already gotten your Violet Proto-Drakes, a long, strange trip that spans one full year of playing World of Warcraft. Some persistent and conscientious players have already gotten their Brewmaster title along with the meta-Achievement, and I'm pretty sure it must feel pretty good. There's no more pressure to do all the holiday achievements now, is there? It's time to kick back and chillax. For those of you who've completed the meta-Achievement, how do you feel? Does it feel good to ride around on that 310% mount? Are ...

Soooooo Close!
Adventures of a Dwarf Priest — ... I got on and did my Brewfest dailies, completely exhausted again (yay for 12h days + family outing + trash day). After completed the defend Brewfest, Brew barking, and Beer runs I was a mere 4 short of doing the rest of the achievements.  Inien however managed to have enough (grats!) and got his done.  Unfortunately though he missed a few achievements during the year that prevented him from getting his Violet Proto-Drake at this point ...

Beer Beer Beer Beer
Almost Evil — ... from when the adds in the Direbrew fight I found out there was more beer in the rafters!I did some dancing in Dalaran. The peace should be disturbed by a drunken dancing gnome on a roof top.Since I just don’t have room for the cloths in my bank I returned the Brewfest livery. That enabled me to get a member card from Larkin Thunderbrew for a Brew of the Month membership.Alexstrasza sent me a letter in the mail. I am now owner of a Violet Proto-Drake. ...

Hallow’s End: Good Luck on the Mount!
Spicytuna — ... to you if you are going after it this Hallow’s End. As for me, I am still missing one thing to get the required achievement from the Hallow’s End event. I still need my [Sinister Squashling] for the “Hallowed Be Thy Name” achievement. Once I get that, then finally, I will have the “What A Long, Strange Trip It’s Been” achievement. And with that, I will get my first 310% Speed Flying Mount: [Reins of the Violet Proto-Drake]. Hopefully you’ll see a “Yay I got my ...

Early Birthday Gift
Spicytuna — ... corner (the 22nd), it looks like I’ve been given an early Birthday presents- and this was given to me by the Headless Horseman. Thanks Mr. Headless Horseman! I finally got my [Sinister Squashling] pet to drop, and completed my “Hallowed Be Thy Name” achievement. Also with that achievement out of the way, I completed the “What A Long, Strange Trip It’s Been” achievement, which then rewarded me with my Violet Proto-Drake! Even though it says the mount is a “Very Fast” mount, it ...

Albino Drake! I Has One!
There and Back Again — Long story short once I found out the Violet Protodrake wasn't possible unless you were incredibly lucky enough to get the Sinister Calling achievement I got pissed enough to go grind out enough Kurenai faction to buy enough riding Talbuk's to get this baby. NOW I'M NOT ANGRY ANYMORE!! I can't complain anyway. Being a DK (like Paladins) I get a bonus 20% increase to my mounted speed. Granted it would have been super awesome with a VPD... but beggers can't be choosers. ...

11% Drop Rate
Zanderfin's Wow "Casual" Raiding — ... and I'm going to turn this into a rant-fest. 11% Drop Rate. That's the chance that a Tooth Pick will drop from the Treat Bag. You need the Tooth Pick in order to get the achievement for That Sparkling Smile. You need that achievement in order to get the Hallowed Be Thy Name achievement. You need that achievement in order to get the What A Long Strange Trip It's Been achievement. And finally, you need that achievement in order to get the Violet Proto-Drake. Now, for those that have been living under a rock (or simply haven't ...

Breakfast Topic: Achievements and you
WoW.com — ... Ah, achievements, that funny little meta-game where everything's made up and the points don't matter. Why, oh why, do we flock to World of Warcraft's achievement system so? Of course, we all look forward to achievements with particularly lucrative rewards (or at least interesting titles), but many of the game's achievements, the only reward to look forward to is achievement points. And while you can certainly take some joy from watching those numbers build up, the points, essentially, don't matter. So what is it that keeps us ...
