invites are out for this week. we'll start with halfus in bastion of twilight and then check out valiona and theralion assuming success, so please read up on that encounter. we also get back to magmaw and possibly check out omnotron after that. please also read up on conclave of the wind, as we'll probably wander back there as well.

If the new priest in the recruitment forums gets an invite him time make sure he's added to this raid list too. Cory also has her druid Belaurassa ready to heal.

Competition for raid spots in this group is heating up. Bring your "A" game people. Anything 346 or above should have proper gems/enchants and flask prices are coming down now too. We have a fair number of Alchs in the guild so if your flasks are too expensive on the AH buy the mats and they can make them for you before the raid.

Another note: As expected Inori was able to use the new raid lockout system to our advantage. I don't want to give away any of my raiders but I think we can make this work where somebody from my group helps out with this group. Inori obviously is a pro and knows all the fights but doesn't have a mic. If typing it out takes so long that it limits your attempts then maybe we can switch someone else with a mic in. Or Jeff could come with us once or twice on Sunday night when we do all our farm content and then him and Inori would be able to dual explain the fight, one in text the other with voice. I only need 180more valor points until I am done with mainspec spending so I could sit out on Sundays or whatever.

first, read this when you have time

second, thanks all who attended last night. my apologies for putting us through the more difficult strategy for most of the time, but that's why learning is fun. i will take a poll when we start tomorrow to see if people want to go back to halfus or try something else. i think if we keep at the second strategy and killing the whelps, and make sure our positioning is solid, we should be able to get him. again, please also read up on valiona and theralion, magmaw and omnotron, and conclave of the wind if you haven't yet.

I am signed up to raid tonight (Blaheet) but looking at the date I just realized it's our anniversary.
If I want to have another next year I better not raid tonight, sorry for the late notice.

invites are up for this week. if you have not read the most recent updates to the fa in cataclysm thread, please do so. the short version is that starting next week i am going to start being much more picky about some things that will help us in several ways.

Bravo! Read all the new threads you put up and they are good reading!

I will not be able to make tonight's raid or Thursday. My mom is on her death bed and is not expected to make it. Just a reminder not to drink nor smoke! If only I listen to my own advise.......
Once again sorry for the late post.

I apologize for missing Thursday raid. My grandpa is very ill and it doesn't look like I will be raiding for some time. Good luck.

My mom did pull out out of the last scare we had, but since then she has been put on hospic. I'm being told she is not doing so well atm and that I should come by and see her.
Not sure if I'm going to be able to make it today, going to swing by their house and see how she is doing.
