The Queue

Did you ever look through your schedule for the day and forget something really, really important which makes it so you have to reorder just about everything? Anyway, apparently my kids have a distance learning day today so I really need to make this brief.

This is The Queue where you ask us questions and we give you the answers. As long as we remember to. No big whoop.

I played some Heroes of the Storm tonight for the first time since June. I didn’t do too badly, although my buddy and I only played in ARAM and I just could not get Heroes that I really jive with. Except for this one game as Orphea.

I could do almost no wrong. They were ready to jump face-first into my big sharp teeth and rending claws. It was honestly really refreshing. After all of this time I really do have to hand it to the developers who designed Heroes. It still feels like the most satisfying a game can be when everything is going your way.

While I try in vain to forget about the awful Brightwing game I had right after, it’s time for — The Queue.

The Hearthstone March of the Lich King trailer is just so good you guys. I don’t even have the words for it, so instead I’m going to try to find some words to answer your questions. Let’s Queue!

Sometimes you’re taking screenshots and you just realize that every one of them looks like the back art to an album from a band that’s about to break up.

So, as of this Queue, Mitch and I are switching days — he’ll pick up next Wednesday, and I’ll be on Thursdays from now on. This means you’ll want to get all your Shadow Priest questions in on Tuesday Queue comments, for example.

I’m listening to this and thinking about what I’d do if I got to write a Superman comic. It would probably be pretty weird and out there with alien stuff, but also the whole “Guy who really just wants to help” aspect of things. Like I said back then, a man who is almost a god but who wants to be a man.

I’m going to miss Henry Cavill as Geralt, he was basically the glue that held the sometimes confusing Witcher series together. But I’m not even going to pretend I’m not pretty happy to get to see Cavill given a chance to play a less Zach Snyder-y version of Superman.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions but we may barter the ancient knowledge for items that may keep us safe. Salt. A sprig of holly for sympathetic magic. The mood is right. The spirit’s up. We’re here tonight and that’s enough. It must be enough. It is the season.

The Buble cometh.

I’m Cory S. Pumpkins, and I’m here to scare the hell out of you  answer your questions!

Just as soon as I figure out what the S. stands for.

While I do that, it’s time for — The Queue.

My cat Puck, in the wake of Aurora’s passing this year, has become very vocal at night. We suspect it’s out of loneliness, as she and Aurora shared a bed overnight and kept each other company. Since I’m awake anyway, I’ve been letting her come and sleep in my office while I’m trying to work. It’s not always ideal, but here we are.

Anyway, hi, y’all. I’m pitching in for Liz while she does the 10,000 things that need doing at any given time.

This is the Queue. Try and be quiet, please, Puck is asleep right now.

The new UI sure is something, huh? I figured the talent system would be the biggest headache to come with the prepatch but boy was I wrong. There were a lot of UI-related questions yesterday but as I am someone who can’t move a picture in Word without destroying the entire document I don’t think I’ll be able to effectively tackle them.

My name is Kalcheus and I’m filling in for Mitch today — let’s answer some questions while wondering where the heck the Pet Bar disappeared to.

Hi. It’s the Queue. I’m Matt. When I am extremely tense or scared I resort to hyperrationality as a defense. I apologize for how this may affect today’s Queue.
