Hi! I just stumbled upon your wonderful blog, and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Psyae (yeah, I use my character name to represent myself in the blogosphere, sorry), and I primarly play WoW these days, but I have had years of experience with a multitude of other games (mostly RP).
I only had time to lightly browse your blog, but I will certainly be back for more. I'll likely link it to my blog, since you reference WoW quite a bit and seem to be having a fun time progressing there. Feel free to come by and visit my blog (psyae.blogspot.com), and browse/comment/etc.
BTW, dreadfully sorry about your stolen computer/camera. I can imagine how my life would tumble into turmoil should my computer/s be stolen, and all the data to disappear into the void (or perhaps be sold?.. even worse!).
If you ever need a test subject for any of your work, or just want to discuss aspects of WoW or gaming in general, feel free to call upon me. I is be edjumikated, 2.
-Psyae
Hello Psyae, you are obviously a lot more experienced in World of Warcraft than I am - can't start to think of what kind of effort I would have to go to to level several characters as far as you have.
Glad you enjoyed the visit here :)
