Border Reiver:
The Warhammer division of elves is much simpler and easy to understand - in WFB all elves are the same "race", but due to political machinations, one large faction split and is following its narissistic leader and his batshit insane mother, another has remained in their ancestral island to avoid having to deal with the lesser races, while a third faction perfers to live in harmony with nature.  all just cultural differences.

WROOOONNNNNGGGG!!!!


Honestly, Warcraft lore is enough of a mess without people spreading misinformation.

meh I see them as cousins rather than the same race, like the Cro-magnon and the Neanderthal.  Same ancestry but pretty different.  The night elves and the high elves had kind of a proletariat-bourgeoisie relationship that culminated into the big split when demons invaded. all fantasy involving elves has some sort of split.

Nope, wasn't just you. Jeph tried to keep 'em discreet, but I noticed 'em too.

who likes short shorts ;)

Is it cold in here?:

--- Quote from: Tuitsuro on 04 Jun 2010, 12:57 ---For the love of god, don't mention discontinuity in the WoW jokes to Jeph.  He may actually realize that he'll have to do research on it to continue growing Marigold's character, end up buying and playing it, and then he will never update QC ever again.

Didn't Jeph say once that he used to play WoW but gave it up when he realized it was an unpaid at-least-part-time job?

A truism of MMO-RPGs: it does not matter if you are level-capped and max-geared, if someone wants to "gank" you that badly it is an eventuality rather than a possibiity.  And this is not limted to PvP either, unfortunately, but that then crosses over into "griefing."  Hope Marigold has some WoW-friends of her own to watch her back.  [EDIT ADD: ooh, just had a thought!  Maybe WoW-Sven will come to her rescue! 8-) ]

Marigold has a whole Guild to watch her back and hella-time playing the game, so she'll be fine.  At this point, I'm actually hoping that Sven will be on Dale's side.   :wink:  During Dale and Marigold's party confrontation, I was hearing the Mortal Combat theme until I noticed the title -- Kill Bill works too.  I really liked Marten's comment: "I think they were flirting.  Or fighting.  Or both."  All while cheerfully munching pizza -- mmmm, pizza . . .  Reminds me of his Mmm soda moment when Faye was telling him and Dora about the tacos-and-bourbon incident.  Marten seems most content when the drama is happening near him but not to him.

So, how long into the YouTube viewing will it be when one of the party guests shows up in a clip?   :-D

Kugai:
Well, I was wrong, no cliffhanger.

Then again, I'm in New Zealand and it's already Saturday here - so I could be wrong.



Hmmmm.  I think either they'll hook up or wind up facing off in the ally behind CoD
