The Queue

Players have been begging for certain races to become playable for years now. How should they be added to the game? Vrykul and Ogres could become counterparts on the Alliance and Horde, respectively — but aren’t they a bit too large? Would you play a character that keeps getting stuck in doors? Or would you accept it if those races were made slightly smaller — perhaps Tauren-sized?

How would your Naga character wear armor without legs? Sure, we do have the Dracthyr who shun a lot of armor pieces due to their design — but that decision has not proven to be very popular with a large contingent of players. For Naga, could they perhaps turn pants into “tail armor” instead?

While we ponder these and other questions, let’s Queue, my Tuskarr-starved friends.

I wish I could explain how bad it feels to spend an hour or two combing through the Queue, our Discord, and emails to grab a bunch of questions, spend another hour or so answering them, and then lose all of that work because my thumb slipped or I hit the wrong key because I’m blind and can’t see the darn things. It’s bad, guys. I forgot to talk about Babylon 5 last week, that’s how upset I was.

Anyway, here’s the Queue. If I screw this one up I’m gonna punch myself. Might just punch myself anyway, I have it coming.

How much longer must we wait until we can roll a Forsaken Paladin, or a Worgen Demon Hunter? Sadly, I don’t have the answer. But I might have other answers. This is The Queue, and you get a complimentary pair of sunglasses and a roasted chicken for reading.*

*disclaimer: you do not actually get a complimentary pair of sunglasses or a roasted chicken for reading The Queue.

It’s the kind of day where I just want to lie in bed and alternately read and nap, but here we are.

This is The Queue, the daily column where you ask us questions, and we definitely didn’t phone this one in while we were heating up some cocoa.

When we killed Mythic Igira for the first time last night, she fell over in a most undignified position. Honestly, I’m surprised that she was bootable at all! Her feet were the only things sticking out on our side of the fence…

While I go and wash my loot off extra well, it’s time for — The Queue!

Despite the week being shorter due to the New Year’s holiday it feels like it’s been twice as long as a normal work week. I’m pretty dang tired — but when Liz asks for a sub, I’ll always find the energy to help!

No ramble in my preamble, let’s just answer questions.

So I sat down to write the Queue. Did so. Tried to get as many things in it as I could. Then, on my way to save it, somehow lost the entire post and now have to write it again.

This is the Queue. I am screaming inside.

… if I had one!

So the whole family got matching pajamas to wear for Christmas, and Marshmallow got a bandanna that also matched. He looked super-cute in it too.

And then it disappeared. We have no idea what happened to it. At some point it was no longer around his neck, and we haven’t found it anywhere. As near as we can guess it fell off while he was outside and then blew away, but that’s just a guess. I suspect it’ll turn up in four months.

While we lament the cute picture that could’ve been, let’s answer some questions!

It’s January 2, so my nose is firmly back against its grindstone. Now, I don’t want to complain since my job is, you know, this. But still.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask the questions and we provide the answers as long as there isn’t more work needs doing.

Happy New Year everyone!

I hope you all had a fun and safe evening last night and are in for a nice cozy relaxing day today. As always it’s a pleasure to be here writing this for you all and I’m looking forward to all the Queues of the next year!

It’s time for — The Queue!
