Where’s a gnome to have a peaceful snack these days, huh? It doesn’t matter where you go in Ny’alotha: there are always eyes watching at you. And when there aren’t eyes, there are tentacles.

How’s an innocent player to get their food buff when someone (something?) is always staring at you? Is my hair messed up? Is there blood on my face? Why are you staring??

The first patch cycle of Shadowlands has arrived: patch 9.0.5 is now live on Public Test Realm (PTR), featuring Valor Points and a number of systems changes.

Totally normal day, totally normal Queue, nothing weird at all here. Everything is completely as expected.

We've reached the end of Battle for Azeroth without a clear resolution.

It really, really is.

In the patch 8.3 known issues post, there's a section that sounds like a simple performance problem, but it's a bigger bug than that.

So I was really looking forward to hitting up Ny’alotha, but a Mac bug in patch 8.3 means my client crashes pretty regularly while doing any group content. I went into Ny’alotha for 45 minutes on Tuesday and had one kernel panic and four client crashes. So, yeah, we aren’t playing Warcraft today. And maybe not tomorrow. Or the next day. Who knows!

Okay, let me stop feeling sorry for myself and we’ll get into answering some questions.

This week's Hearthstone Tavern Brawl is actually last week's Hearthstone Tavern Brawl — except a bug meant the Brawl was pulled offline in less than a day.

Yeah, my new best friend is a rat, what’s it to you?

So I had almost enough questions, and then I asked for questions and suddenly had what is probably too many questions, but I felt bad for asking for them if I didn’t use them so… yeah, I tried to answer a lot of questions.

To mixed results.

So enjoy that!
