You know, I didn’t think so at the beginning of beta, but Frostfire Ridge is actually really pretty. I don’t find it as visually appealing as say, Shadowmoon, but I don’t mind the snow as much, these days.

Every time Saurfang pops up in my garrison I get this moment of overwhelming excitement because his exclamation point is yellow, not blue, and I think he’s got something new for me to do. And then I click on him and it’s just a couple of blue exclamation points. Saurfang, you’re rotten and you fill me with disappointment.

I spent the entire raid in churning agony as my intestines attempted to leap out of my body through any convenient orifice. To call it excruciating is to demean the experience, really. Hopefully I can get this Queue done before I’m consumed from the inside.

Let’s do the Queue.

Yesterday, I chided Alex on not writing the Queue the night before, thus causing him to run late. Today I’ve failed to take my own advice and look what’s happened. Anyway — let’s get on to the questions!

Today’s edition of The Queue is both late and short. I apologize for that, but I overslept. I spent half of my night last night — until around 3 a.m. — keeping an eye on a drunk man passed out in the street while I waited over two hours for the police department to pick him up. Two hours. Amazing response time.

I don’t know if today’s header image has any relevance or not. I picked one at random from our media library. This Queue is late enough, I don’t have time to take clever screenshots!

Hi. You may remember me from such posts as the ones I did yesterday. Today, I’m doing The Queue. That’s this here post where y’all ask questions about Blizzard games. Sometimes I go off on little tangents about dinosaurs or whatever, but today I’m not going to do that. Let’s talk about games.

Does anyone else kind of wish clicking the easel opened some kind of MS Paint interface in which we could paint our own garrison artwork? No? Maybe? …you’re right, we’d probably end up with a lot of really tasteless “art” screenshots flying around.

Did you know that Gilneas apparently has an art vendor who sells paintings that blink? I kind of wonder if the worgen and Forsaken are really the worst things Gilneans have to think about.

Hi, and welcome to The Queue, Blizzard Watch’s daily column answering your questions.

Every so often I wonder just how strong the various races of the Warcraft setting actually are. I mean, relative to each other. Draenei and orcs are probably around the same (Draenei are a bit bigger and beefier, so they might be a touch stronger, with the orcs making up for it with frenzied rage), but are tauren the strongest? I mean, they’re big. What about worgen, or ogres, or… it’s kind of hard to compare strength when you have a three foot tall race that can use swords twice their own size, one in each hand (seriously, watch a gnome fury warrior sometime) vs. a nine foot tall race. But I do think that, proportionately, gnomes might well be the strongest race on Azeroth.

Either that or I’m just saying it to drive the gnome haters in the audience into a frenzy. Anyway! Let’s talk some Blizzard games!
