Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare Trailer And Commentary
Posted on Thursday, November 21 @ 08:48:56 Eastern by Keri_Honea
PopCap released a rather lengthy video today for their upcoming game, Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare. The video runs nearly ten minutes long and it's supplemented with commentary by Brian Lindley, the game's executive producer.
The video goes over some of the zombie and plant classes, as well as various customizations available for each. And of course, there is plenty of gameplay to watch to give you a taste of what to expect from the game. Spoiler—story gamers probably need not apply.
The game will have 10 maps and three modes: two competitive, and one co-op mode. The Xbox One version will feature a split-screen couch co-op mode, while the Xbox 360 version will only support online multiplayer. The Xbox One version also offers a Boss mode, allowing one player to use a tablet or the Kinect to manage the onslaught from a top view, not unlike what is available in New Super Mario Bros. U with the GamePad.
Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare will release on February 18, 2014.

Immediately after entering Glamgish, the group is unsure of their surroundings. It looks like the inside of the keep they just entered, but something is not right. The roof is missing and the walls bordering them look as if the entryway of the keep had been plucked out of existence and moved somewhere else. Before they have a chance to investigate, the heroes are attacked by three larger-than-normal dwarves. They are furious and shouting, "FOR GLAMGISH!" The heroes immediately begin to defend themselves. Jeric is able to get his chain wrapped around one of the dwarves and electrocutes it, but misses when he tries to repeat his attack. The clouds above part and a beam of holy fire rains down upon all three dwarves setting two of them ablaze and severely damaging the third. After what is sure to be agonizing pain, the dwarves are enrages and start in on Santos. Darius, trying to defend his master, swings his bastard sword wildly and hits one of the dwarves. Traavor summons a comet from the skies and it crashes into the burned enemies.
One of the dwarves keeps shouting to Bradek, "Help us, brother! Help us remove them from this palce!" He buries his axe in the shoulder of Taran. "We will clear you insects out if it takes our last breath!" He swings at Taran again, however, Taran is able to sheer off the dwarf's axe with his katana.
Another dwarf charges at Santos waving his axe with such extreme skill that is seems like an extension of his arm. He makes contact with Santos' helmet. After Taran deflects his attacker's swing, he wields his two swords with extreme precision slicing his assailant and causing extreme damage. Not surprisingly, these dwarves are able to take a lot of damage and they are even more crazed now. Due to his burns, the third dwarf, badly burned, is unable to make his attacks connect on Jeric. During his attempt to do harm to our compatriot, the dwarf shouts to Bradek once again to help them rid the keep of these infidels.
Bradek yells to the dwarf attacking Taran, "You have something that belongs to me!" The dwarf shouts to his compatriots, "The ancient Gods have returned to claim what is theirs!" The last words passed the lips of the dwarf as Bradek buries his axe into the dwarf's chest armor. Electricity shoots from the axe and, using the plate armor as a conductor, frying the dwarf. Bradek lined up for his second attack, but missed. These dwarves are certainly a force with which to be reckoned.
"Give me the shield!" Bradek yells to the dwarf as he holds off on his attack. The dwarf drops his shield on the ground and says, "Lady Shadow, please accept this offering." Bradek is confused by this. Maybe they aren't that bright? Maybe they misunderstood him. Maybe, just maybe, they are following Bradek's orders.
A flurry of blows from the dwarf attacking Santos manage to land doing significant damage. Santos tries to heal Taran and the dwarves capitalize on this attack of opportunity. Taran, now healed, flanks one of the dwarves and slices him across the cheek. His swordplay is so fast, that the heroes only see a blur of metal reflecting in the light as both arms of the dwarf fall to the ground. The dwarf drops to the floor and bleeds out quickly. Taran, moving so quickly, is able to get two more hits off on the other closest dwarf. Bradek, not knowing what to do, but knowing he cannot stop the onslaught, attempts to grapple and hold the dwarf who dropped his shield. Bradek dives in for the tackle but misses. The dwarf, sad and confused, shouts to him, "Why, brother?!"
Traavor casts Snake's Swiftness giving everyone an extra attack. Each of the heroes take their turn. Santos swings and misses. Bradek grabs onto the dwarf, holding him tightly, as Taran's katana glides through the air and suddenly stops at the dwarf's throat, drawing a small drop of blood. Jeric waves his chain above his head and snaps it at the last mad dwarf attacking them. He gets in the first attack with no problem and on his second, slices the jugular of the crazed dwarf. He drops to the ground and bleeds out next to his armless brother.
The last standing dwarf is badly burned and beaten. Bradek attempts to drop him to the ground but fails. The dwarf is now loose and flails his axe at Santos hitting him while screaming at Bradek again, "Why, brother?! Why?!" Diog, defending his master, runs over to the dwarf and takes a chunk out of his leg. The wound is great and the dwarf topples over unconscious. Bradek dives at the falling dwarf yelling, "Where is the shield?! Where is the shield?!" The dwarf is motionless on the ground, dying, but not dead yet. Traavor attempts to heal him to stop the inevitable as a small green light emanates from his hands stopping death in its tracks.
Unsure of what to do next, Bradek, out of sheer desperation, grabs the armor of the dwarf and roars with bestial vigor. The sheer vibration of the thunderous, booming power of Bradek's shout pulls the dwarf out of the unconscious.
The heroes inquire about the shield and are told that it is extremely far away from where they are now. When asked about his leader, the dying dwarf tells them that there is no one. Only the Nothingness that surrounds them. He tells the group about the bugs that swarm his people and that they might have the shield of which our heroes seek. The dwarf is in pain and Santos, in a moment of compassion and grace, shows the dwarf a slight glimpse of the heavens. He closes his eyes and passes out again.
Now having time to properly observe their surroundings, they look behind them to see if they can carry the Glamgishian dwarf outside to get him away from these insects he was talking about, but as their eyes have now adjusted to the dim lighting, realize the door is gone. It is just a short hallway with a mountain blocking where the door used to be. As they look up and around, the mountain range surrounding the section of the keep is covered in holes. Caves, to be precise. There are a lot of caves that have been dug out in the mountain side by the insects. So many, in fact, that the heroes don't have time to count them all. They look at the ground around them and notice there is Neutral Essence coursing through the grout in the stonework seeming to hold everything together. The conversation among the heroes is an interesting one as they try to decipher where, or when, they are and how to get back to Glamgish proper. They are not sure if they are in Majeria, but they do know that they are not where they are supposed to be. Santos wants to try to change the Neutral Essence to Good Essence using his Divine Augmenter and Bradek is looking for secret doors or passageways, but is unable to find any.
Santos' eyes glow brightly as he casts True Scene. As he looks around, the others notice a confused look on his face. When he finishes his spell he tell the others that he can see the rest of the keep that should be surrounding them. Jeric, is able to discern that they are in the Ghost Plane, an ethereal plane where they should absolutely not be. However, the confusing part of the whole situation is that the dwarves were not part of this plane of existence. They were not ghosts. They were organic and did things only biological things did… like bleed. The company decides to move forward since there is no way to go back and as they step past the threshold of the Neutral Essence stonework, are transported back to the Majeria version of Glamgish. Santos, still having access to the True Scene, looks up at the walls surrounding them and now sees the mountain sides with the insect caves that were visible to them in the Ethereal Plane.
One of the party members notices a single gray cloud circling around them from above. Jeric is concerned how easily they were transported back to their world. During the conversation, the group looks around and notice that Taran is not close by. He is squatting in a corner, defecating. Apparently his Irritable Bowel Syndrome was flaring up due to the stress of the fight as well as their shifting through planes of existence.
Behind them, they notice that the Neutral Essence is still in the grout between the rocks, but only in the section that was transported to the Ghost Plane. In order to figure out what the cloud whirling around them is, Traavor turns into a robin and flies upwards towards it. Santos, being the only one who can see what is happening, watches as Traavor flies around inside the cloud, but is then immediately hit by a tendril and is sent back to the Majeria world.
Having only one choice, they move further into the keep. The group decides to search the balustrade, but as they do, Bradek, in a selfish manner, but determined to find his King's shield, goes for the door at the back of the hall. The others decide to follow. On his way there, he quickly searches the remnants of an old catapult and finds a gold ring with the insignia of a shield on it. Before he has a chance to figure out what the ring is, he is surrounded by 10 insects who quickly engage him. In a hurry, Bradek puts on the ring in order not to lose it and the battle begins.
The bugs have four arms and large claws. Each one is carrying two swords in the upper set of arms and the their claws on their lower set are ready for causing massive amounts of pain. They simultaneously pounce on Bradek who is ready to do battle once again. They swing and claw at him, but only cause minimal damage. One insect tries to dig its claws into Bradek's side but is unsuccessful. Bradek, controlled and collected, whirlwinds hitting every attacker. Santos teleports the group, except for Traavor, into the middle of the fray and they take their place by their companion's side, weapons at the ready to defeat their foes. Darius immediately attacks and kills one of their foes and strikes another. Diog bites into the leg of one of the insects and ichor begins pouring out of the wound. The pain is evident on the vermin's face. Traavor, still shape-shifted as a robin, dive bombs at the skirmish. Midair, he casts Arc of Lightning at four of the attackers. They writhe in pain and three of the four affected melt and tumble to the ground. Taran, gracefully and diligently, wields his katana and short sword removing the head of his foe. He then makes a move towards another, but fails to make contact as his attacks are parried by the insect's swords.
There are only five more bugs left. To everyone's surprise, they all curl up into balls and roll towards Bradek. One of the insects, not being able to see the obstacles in his way, bounces off one of the wheels from the rotting catapult, putting itself right in the path of Bradek's axe which is immediately buried into the bug's shell, killing it instantly. One of the bugs decides to make a break for it and as it is running away, it begins to phase out of existence. Jeric swings his chain at the phasing retreater. It wraps around its neck, shocking him and holding him in place. The chain loosens and Jeric makes another attempt at him before he is gone, but the bug has phased too much and the chain goes through the shadow of what was the body of the insect. Before he is completely gone from this plane of existence, Jeric is almost certain that the bug smiled at him. A beam of light screams down from the skies as Santos follows through on Jeric's target. Searing light engulfs the insect and that smile changes to surprise and then excruciating pain as it melts where it stands. Darius attacks one of the remaining bugs and hits him, but his following attacks are parried by the insect's claws and sword. Taran, in his infinite discipline and skill is able to slide his katana into an insect and drop him to the ground. Just as it hits the ground a scream begins to escape its mouth. However, before the yelp has any chance of being heard, Taran's foot slams down on its head shooting brains and ichor outward and onto the ground. Taran moves with finesse as he closes in on the remaining two foes. He swings at one of them but is not able to down him.
The first of the two bugs attacks wildly and misses all of his attacks. The second tries to hit Bradek and misses all but one of his attacks. He is successful in his last claw attack and buries his talons into Bradek's armor and pulls him in close. The insect opens its salivating jowls and another set of teeth slowly creep out and towards Bradek's face. Diog, upon seeing this, bites the legs of the bug sending both Bradek and his grappler to the floor, teeth still less than an inch from Bradek's nose. Traavor lands, but no longer as a robin. He has shifted into a tiger! A BIG tiger! Traavor pounces at Bradek's holder, but due to the quick landing and immediate transformation, is unable to land any of his swipes or bites. Diog bites at the insect off to the side and is able to remove a limb in the process spewing ichor and innards all over, killing it.
Bradek is able to keep the insect at bay, but not for much longer. As Bradek's hold begins to give out, the insect's eyes widen as it realizes what is about to happen. Suddenly, his eyes widen even more, but this time in fear as it feels Taran's katana enter through the back of its skull and come out its inner mouth. The tip of the blade slides through with the greatest of ease and rests right on Bradek's nose, but not drawing blood. The precision is astounding and Taran lifts the body of the bug off of a very thankful Bradek.
The yard is littered with insectoid bodies, their removed limbs, and their weapons. The heroes collect themselves and move toward the door in the back. The others are upset with Bradek, but he is determined to get what he came for. They open the door to find a dark room. Taran searches for traps and finds none. Santos lights up a rock and throws it into the middle of the room illuminating it. It is an empty room with two doors and a staircase leading down to a cellar. Bradek asks Santos to cast Locate Object to find the shield and Santos tells them they need to go downstairs. Bradek and Santos head down with the others behind them.
The stairs lead the party into a large open room. The light from rock that Santos had illuminates the room and in the middle sits a large platform made of stone with a three foot podium standing on top. After some investigation, the group sees only a hole on the top of the podium that must be for a key. Bradek exclaims that they must find the key and Santos begins to go back up the stairs with everyone to try to find it. As he walks, the world around them changes again and they are transported back to the Ghost Plane. The party is now standing hundreds of feet up on a cliff staring down at the valley below where they can barely make out three shiny lights emanating from what is believed to be the keep below. Looking around them, there is only the cliff and the cave behind them. Traavor says, "Let's go in."
Following the tight cave, the heroes make their way about fifty feet in when they come to a round room where there are four separate entrances in different directions. The fifth being the way they came in. Bradek marks the entrance cave and the group follows the Rule of Right so they head through the opening. The walls get tighter and tighter and everyone is forced to walk in a single file line with Bradek at the front and Traavor in the back. Santos feels that something is not right about this and casts a Magical Weapon buff on Darius' bastard sword.
The heroes have failed in this but do not know yet. They did not do anything to hush their advances through the cave and are talking at normal volumes. The sounds alerted the insects inside the cave and cause a cave-in behind the party trapping them. Traavor is barely able to dodge the falling rocks as he pushes forward shoving everyone a few feet forward. Two insects charge at the cornered heroes. One insect is on the ground and is running at Bradek. The other is amazingly moving at the same speed, but is on the ceiling. They flatten themselves and begin their onslaught.
The insects are swinging their swords and claws at Bradek, but are causing minimal damage. Traavor begins charging his Call Lightning spell from the rear. Bradek swings back at his attackers but, due to the tight quarters of the fray, is unable to land an attack. Jeric casts Seeking Ray at the ceiling bug, but misses and hits Bradek in the back of the head. Knowing he will not be able to perform any melee attacks, Taran puts away his swords and pulls out his long bow. He fires two arrows at the bug on the ceiling. The first one fires true and hits its mark. The second flies past the bug down the corridor. Santos is healing Bradek while Darius uses his bow to try to damage the bug on the ceiling and barely hits him. Darius shoots again and misses. Santos buffs everyone with his Recitation, beefing up his companion's damage. Darius shoots two more arrows, the first sticking into the side of the bug and the second missing its mark. Bradek wildly swings at the bug above him, missing his first, but landing the second. Jeric waits for the right opportunity and looks back to Traavor who has finished channeling his spell. Traavor unleashes the fury of the lightning, but the bugs are able to resist it!
The insect on the ceiling of the cave tunnel keeps attacking Bradek but does not land a blow. The second insect on the ground misses Bradek with both swords and one claw, but the second claw digs into Bradek's armor once more and pulls himself close to Bradek, second set of teeth exposed. Jeric performs his Dimension Hop and puts himself on the other side of the bug on Bradek. Behind him, he hears more footsteps from the insects swarming down the tunnel. Taren fires his bow at the ceiling bug again hits him. He fires his second one and misses his target hitting Bradek in the shoulder.
Trapped in the cave with nowhere to go, Traavor shifts into a dire badger and start tunneling through the fallen rocks trapping them to make an escape route. Jeric turns to see two more insects charging down the tunnel towards them. He casts a Stone Piston that shoots up from the ground pinning one of the swarming bugs against the roof of the cave. An eyeball pops out of its head but the pillar does not kill it. It begins chiseling at the top of the cave to cause another cave in to kill the heroes. Bradek fends off the bug attacking him and Santos casts Deific Vengeance and hits the bug attacking Bradek. Darius shoots at the ceiling insect and misses. The claw, still being in Bradek's armor, is unable to inject its venom. Taran shoots from in back of the group and hits Bradek again, clipping his cheek. His second shot thankfully misses Bradek, but also misses his initial target. Bradek swings his axe at the bug locked into his armor and finally kills it. Its mandibles loosen from his leg as it falls to the floor.
Traavor is still digging through the rocks and the insect on top of the pillar pops out of existence. Another insect takes his place in the gap between the pillar and the roof of the cave and continues to chip away at it making some real progress. Much more quickly than the injured one before. Santos tells everyone to move back and ready themselves for retreat but Bradek will have none of it and ignores his command. Jeric agrees that retreat is the only option and everyone heads back towards the hole being made by the dire badger furiously digging to get everyone out. Taran, in his heroic fashion, shoots at the bug digging away at the ceiling and hits him, but he does not slow his actions. Santos casts Awaken Sin and stuns the bug for a moment putting a pause to the inevitable. Bradek readies his Bull Rush waiting for the pillar to come down.
On top of the pillar, the unconscious insect is pulled off and replaced by another picking up where he left off. Jeric casts another piston which, this time, goes all the way up to the ceiling, but the work had already been done. The insects had made enough progress that they are able to keep at it on the other side of the piston and the heroes are going to be crushed if they don't get out. Bradek is furious with Jeric and his new piston and wants to fight his way further down, but now has no choice but to escape. Jeric removes the old piston and a yelp is heard as the bug on top slams to the ground. The others with him climb back up and keep at it.
Traavor is successful and gets through the debris. The heroes crawl through one by one as fast as they can. Rocks and dirt fall from the roof and the ceiling begins to collapse as the last of the heroes make it into the escape tunnel. Santos yells to everyone to hold hands and he transports them to the other side to safety.
Barely making it out alive, the party goes back to the Cliffside and is transported back down to where they were before: in the cellar. After going upstairs they exit the room and move to a hallway where there are three doors. The heroes break of into groups, each group lining up in front of a door. Bradek and Jeric go to the door on the right, Santos and Taran go to the middle, and Traavor, Diog, and Darius in front of the left door. Jeric and Bradek open their door where they see some skeletons with armor and a puddle of Neutral Essence in the corner. Santos and Taran open their door and find a similar puddle in the corner as well as a very nice Rapier resting against the wall.
When Darius opens his door, with Diog and Traavar right behind him, they find something they certainly did not expect. It is an unholy thing. An indescribable horror attempting to take over the mind of Darius. Traavar shifts into a Dire Ape. The monster tried to penetrate Traavor's mind but he is able to fend it off. They back off the door and over to the side out of sight as it emerges from the room ready to destroy our heroes who disturbed its slumber.

2015 NCAA Men's Division
I Basketball TournamentPrediction Accuracy
Nate Silver's
is back with predictions
for the 2015 NCAA Men's Division I basketball tournament (see
the accuracy of Nate's model for the 2014 NFL season here).
provides the odds of each team advancing in the tournament
and, unlike most bracket competitions, is updated after each
The table below uses Brier
scores to determine the accuracy of the probabilistic
predictions in Nate's model.
Brier scores range from 0.0 to 1.0, with 0.0 meaning the probabilities
in the model perfectly match
the outcomes of the games and 1.0 meaning no matches were made
(so the closer to 0.0, the better the model). If a 50% probability were assigned to each team
for each game, the
Brier score would be 0.25.
Just as last
year, Nate's model failed in
the first round of the tournament.
The Brier score for the four games of 0.2640 exceeds
what the score would have been by assigning each team a 50%
probability of winning.
Although the model failed in the first round of games, the format of the second
where higher-ranked teams play lower-ranked teams, should lead to an improved Brier
score as
it did last year. The model, however, will continue to miss the upsets, which, obviously,
are important
in a single-elimination tournament.
As the results from the first round demonstrate, Nate's model does not solve the problem
of the unrepeatable single case (100,000 game simulations do not constitute the infinite long
Accuracy results for each round will be posted here.

2014 NFL Prediction
Accuracy - Worse Than Guessing
Updated results, including reliability tables, assessing
the accuracy of Microsoft's Cortana
and Nate Silver's fivethirtyeight.com Elo
predictions for the 2014 NFL season are available here.
Both models performed worse than guessing
in the second week of the season, invalidating the models.
While the Elo model finished the season with
a slightly better Brier score, the Cortana model's favorites
won more games and the Cortana
model was less prone than the Elo model to over and under-forecasting
and therefore less prone to bias.

90 Night Elf Druid
It may just be me, but I thoroughly dislike going for other people's achievements in pugs. They usually end in tears and swearing and repair bills. I remember one PuG when the tank wanted to do Watch Him Die back in Wrath, and I was healing. I dropped after the third wipe.
Not just you... It seemed like it was almost always a poorly geared dps that wanted to do them and they always ended in a disaster. I usually hung around for 2 wipes and if it was clear we were not even close, I suggested we move along.
Funny enough, a few times I quit a group over people obsessed with doing the cheeves... I'd requeue only to get the same group again... still wiping.
90 Tauren Shaman
Zone into Blood Furnace to see three DKs. One was in Frost (not the tank). One was in Blood (also, not the tank). And one was in Unholy (of course, the tank).
I don't understand this. Is it that hard to skim through Noxxic, Icy Veins, or the forums for class information before they try a dungeon?
90 Blood Elf Paladin
It wasn't a pug but we were doing durumu last (and failing at it pretty miserably, shudder). I was taking a couple stacks of the life drain, when force of will ended up on me and I full expected to go flying off to my doom. But as I was launched off the platform I suddenly found myself yanked back onto the platform. I think that might be the first actually productive use of Mommy Grip I've ever seen. At least the coolest anyway.
100 Tauren Druid
Zone into Blood Furnace to see three DKs. One was in Frost (not the tank). One was in Blood (also, not the tank). And one was in Unholy (of course, the tank).
In their defense, when TBC was the new thing and I was leveling my warrior through, I was Arms spec with a mix-and-match tank gear set.
Then again, that was before most of the role-specific abilities were tied to a definite spec ... so maybe it wouldn't work nowadays.
90 Blood Elf Paladin
Reasons why Gnomeregan should be removed from the game:
1) I hate it
2) Everyone hates it
3) It is too long
4) My rogue suicide jumped off of the big tower where you're supposed to use the parachute. He had the right idea.
LFR, queue on my paladin with my friend zone in on Lei Shen. Or rather I should say on his trash, they are wiping to the first pair. Proceed to chain zone in and rez zerg them down as the tanks won't accept a rez or release. First hint that the tanks are bad, plus they seem to have a fondness for trash talking everyone else, while being utterly useless. Eventually the mobs die with no tanks. Then as we head up the stairs someone facepulls the second group of trash, causing about half the raid to wipe, but only half as the rest decided to just run by them and click the portal. For the next 25 minutes at least it was a series of mini groups trying to run past the adds, 1-2 people dying, the rest making it and tensions rising. I'm in the last group to get there, with a tank, tank runs in, we follow him, I cast a heal so he doesn't die, he puts no threat on them, mobs turn and kill me, he keeps running and clicks the orb. Sweet tanking. Next group I escort the rest of the people in "as the tank" hitting both mobs then bubbling to keep their attention while everyone gets to safety.
Yay the hard part is over, just kidding. Tank pulls with nary a notice to the raid, dies almost in a global and we wipe shortly after that. Of course then we get the, "come on healers, do your job." I let this one go for now, but I do chime in that I'm glad we cleared trash so we don't have to run back past them again /sarcasm.
<Insert trash rezzing and running by them for the next 10 minutes here>
Pull 2, literally everyone on the platform for 5 seconds, can't even buff, tank charges in and pulls. Does this guy think he's the !@#$ or what? Nobody has even spammed group assignments despite having massive personnel changeover. We make an effort, but there's no way, it's a wipe. 5 tank deaths. Group completely devolves into bickering at this point. Tank tries to lay the blame at the healers being terrible for not keeping either tank alive. I suggested that he might want to use a cooldown if he runs off at 10% health with aggro well out of healing range, and decapitate debuff while the conduit is only around 50 energy, and lei shen is meleeing him in the back. His response? "Do I really have to, if you can't keep me alive what is even the point?" I respond, "Do I have to use a cd, is that even a serious question?" They were taking absurd damage, not taunt swapping, running off when the conduits were random energy, going one direction, then doubling back to the first conduit. I love that tanks not knowing what to do somehow becomes a healers suck problem.
The tank accompanied by two of his cronies attempt to vote kick me as I'm by far the most vocal at this point. It fails, of course it fails, I'm carrying the healing and was like the only person to help people get by the trash adds while the tank sat on the platform badmouthing everyone. I decide I've had enough and kick the tank, it passes. One of his cronies curses us out, then ninja pulls the boss, gets one shot and he resets, have to love that. To be safe we just kicked the other guy at that point, with dire warnings that we had made a huge mistake. Sounds foreboding, I wonder what they thought would happen? We'd wipe without his elite tanking skills? Been there already in case you didn't notice. New tank comes in, marks groups, let's us buff. We one shot it with maybe 2? deaths. A clear healing issue.
I will drink the tears of that first tank from my chalice of glory tonight.
I honestly hate those groups that are too lazy to kill the trash on Lei Shen. The number of LFRs that can 1 shot Lei Shen are low to non-existent so you always spend 10 minutes+ after the inevitable wipe trying to run past them, people dying, people rezing all over the place, etc, etc. When 5 minutes of concerted effort would have simply killed them. It's laziness pure and simple and the people in LFRs who advocate for running past them are put on my ignore list (I also actively avoid healing them because I am vindictive).
I mean I 100% agree. The idea that any group that skips the trash because it's too hard going in and one shotting Lei Shen is laughable at best. All you are doing is creating extra stress after the wipe. Obviously I tried explaining it but it fell on deaf ears.
Obviously I tried explaining it but it fell on deaf ears.
This quote perfectly sums up most LFRs :D
90 Orc Shaman
I have a LFR Lei Shen story.
Zone in and of course, they're on the last boss. 7 of us queued together, so it makes me wonder how bad the first 2 bosses went. The trash is pulled without a problem, which is surprising. Everyone sits down to eat, buffs go out, assignments are given, fight is explained to those whom have which never done the fight, etc...
We get to first transition and that's where it all falls apart. One of the platforms completely fails to catch any of the bouncing balls. They spawn 6+ adds and slowly get picked off one by one. The adds then turn around and start attacking randomn people, because screw tanks picking them up, right? They kill all the healers and any dps brave/foolish enough to attack. Wipe 1.
Next pull, same story. The same platform doesn't catch balls and we have adds. Luckily, a few of us noticed this and ran into the puddles so we don't spawn more then we can handle. We think we may be able to salvage the attempt, but we were so so wrong. Mr Tank decides he wants to pull the boss over the zone that had just been deactivated. Instance chat lights up but unfortunately, the tank and dps that followed him are dead. Wipe 2.
Next attempt, we decide in mumble to take over 2 areas. We manage to get through transition with 2 adds, which is a huge step forward. The same tank then decides to pull the boss over to the deactivated area again and is promptly pulled to safety. He immediately runs back in and dies taking several dps with him. Wipe 3.
At this point, people are losing their minds. Pitchforks are pulled out of storage and man do they want blood. Or to at least kick this horrible tank. He tries to defend himself, but the vote passes almost immediately. A few more people leave. So, while we're waiting for replacements, we explain again about the dead areas, the balls, etc.. just everything.
Hooray! New tank! Oh wait, its the same damn guy! And he can't be kicked again. Since he obviously doesn't know how to do this, we explain it to him and we're greeted with silence. Boss is pulled and we're expecting the worst. Somehow, in his few moments of not being in group, this tank managed to learn the fight and doesn't drag the boss through the dead zone. Progress! We get two deactivated areas that are across from each other, and not in the good way. But whatever, we have 3 stacks of the fail buff and manage to muscle our way to a kill.

90 Orc Warlock
Not a healer story, but fun experience on my little tank in SFK a few minutes ago. And there isn't a tanking version on the tank forums. Or I'm blind. either way.....
I pull the first pack of mobs and beat on them for maybe 10 seconds, I then move to the next level and pull a ghoul, and seconds later I pull the top. meanwhile my hp was dropping, and I had no choice but to jump off the stairs to even get a heal. Because apparently my healer was paying more attention to everyone with 100% hp, compared to me. down the boss and after the door opens I pull a group of 3. meanwhile the healer, a druid is sitting in cat form...I die...and I get this...
Druid: Tank is noob.
Me: Says the healer in cat form? Also try keeping up with your tank cause you're not going to always have one treat you like a care bear and pull slow.
Me: Have fun.
Just want to say I wasn't pulling mad crazy, just every few seconds.In that time the healer could already have been on the stairs at least. Going to sound like an !@# when I say this but it was a healer issue.
Okay, this was actually said in jest but I can see it being said in a serious manner in certain pugs.
My little monk finally hit 90 so our raid group's main tank took her along for a few heroic 5 mans. At the start of Shado Pan I just run around and SCK my way to the top of the dps meters. Of course I proudly announce this in mumble. ;)
When I finish a solid 2nd place on damage meters for the first boss before I could even say anything I get this:
Tank: "Stop that, Kahz. You're making me look bad."
Later on I get:
Tank: "I finally beat you in dps!"
Cheater stood in the fire. ;-P
90 Blood Elf Priest
Side story real quick: my Rogue Emevoli did Forgotten Depths last night, I needed 5 bosses to get to Revered with Assault. Typical wipe fest on Durumu, until I decide to take charge. The raid leader passes the lead to me and I explain how to avoid Disintegration Beam like a boss. That time we kill him with minimal Beam deaths.
I warn people about the Primordius trash and we clear up to him. I explain this fight and we one-shot it.
Right after Prim dies I explicitly tell people to stop before the door and don't touch, and people listen. Felt great. We clear trash and they patiently wait while I explain the importance of single-target and focusing down the Larges while looking out for Crimson Wake. We get past all the Larges and only have the boss and two Massives up. Dark Animus tank dies twice due to the debuff, but the other tank picks him up while we brez. We kill off the Massives and the tanks swap beautifully as we proceed to one-shot LFR Dark Animus on a Monday.
On topic, I'll be doing LFR on Buffy tonight most likely, almost Honored now.
I ran the last ToT LFR last night on my priest. A number of miraculous things occurred.
1. I actually zoned into the instance at the beginning instead of at Lei Shen.
2. The group stopped to give minimal explanations to people who asked about mechanics.
3. The group killed all the trash up to Lei Shen without any discussion about it
4. We one shot every boss with 2 deaths the entire run

I got a job nearly 5 months ago at a retailstore. I started spending the money I received after my 2nd week there on Christmas presents for people. The purchases were small, because I still thought at the time that $20 was big and because I had a discount. Then, they reached $50 and easily topped $100s. I started to have...

The day after the earthquake, everything seems back to normal in Chengdu… dumplings seller fruit stand
build a tower
I've been meaning to write this post for a while; as usual, however, life got in the way and it was delayed. I've now done this team-building activity with two different classes, and it proved to be a lot of fun. The Marshmallow Challenge was created by Tom Wujec, and he describes the activity in a TED2010 Talk [click photo above to view video]. The object of the activity is to enhance group and cooperative learning skills through creativity, planning, trial & error, and problem-solving as a part of a team. It involves building a tower using dry spaghetti, tape, string, and marshmallows. As a bonus, the extra marshmallows provided snacks for instant energy. Here are some of the photos from my English for Academic Purposes class as they constructed their towers. As it turned out, the students fell in love with the red clothesline string I provided, and used way too much of it. Oh well, I'm not one for strictly following instructions anyway. A few of the students also chose to snack on the spaghetti (uncooked) afterwards, which I didn't recommend. After the towers were completed, a committee of judges used a tape measure to determine which one was tallest. Prizes were awarded for height and creativity – one tower was shaped like the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai. During the activity I played a mixture of pop, disco, and 70s R&B music for inspiration.

After my return to Chengdu and a week around students with colds and winter coughs, my allergies turned into a chest cold. I'm starting to recover now, but I've pretty much spent my free time in bed, when not working. crowned head, Muslim quarter, Xian In Xian, I missed the attraction that the whole world flocks there to see, namely, the Terracotta Warriors. A colleague told me that it was, indeed, a stupefying sight, thousands upon thousands of silent sentinels, unearthed after a couple of millenia, guarding the tomb of of the Qin emperor who unified China. Next time, for sure. Muslim restaurant I stayed at the Hantang Inn Hostel my first night – a comfortable and friendly place in an alley near the city center. After walking through the Muslim Quarter and then visiting the Wild Goose Pagoda, I was exhausted. On the way back to the hostel I stopped at a small noodle restaurant and ate the best chicken soup with dumplings of my life. It was a bowl of soup to celebrate and to rhapsodize over, but sadly I never made it back for a second bowl.

Peppers, eggplants and melons
We keep trying to grow these but only get tiny useless fruits.
I guess our season is just too short. Any suggestions for getting them to set more and bigger fruits?
I've had some success with using red plastic. This year, I'm going a step further --- I'm starting the plants in Wallowaters. These are plastic tubes in a circle. You feel them with water. They absorb heat during the day and radiate it at night. You can plant warm weather crops 4-6 weeks before your last frost date.
I've now got peppers that are huge and setting fruits. And, my tomatoes are setting fruit. And, my squash are starting to flower. I'm going to leave the Wallowaters on throughout the season.
Anyway, my thoughts.
We're in Zone 5 and our secret is planting peppers and eggplant in white 5-gallon buckets. We get a very good harvest of large, ripe fruit either because the roots are more confined in the buckets causing the plant to bloom and fruit earlier, or because the soil in the buckets is exposed to the heat from the sun on all sides.
We use a mix of equal parts soil and composted manure and fertilize regularly during the growing season.
