Reminder that if Kul Tirans don't get mages it confirms that god is not real.
I created a warlock to level when I'm bored and his imp's name is Lazy Al (Lazyal).

I might have to keep this warlock around.

Have you heard the phrases "Do not put the Lord your God to the test." and "Do not tempt Fate."? Your statement is practically tempting fate to do what you don't want just to spite you!

If the lord deigns to spite me in this manner I will face god and walk backwards into hell.
Finally got around to hitting exalted on Honorbound.

What ultimately got me to exalted was not crippling the Kul Tirans, nor was it securing some valuable resource for the Horde, clearing out hostile factions or even helping Magni protect Azerite.

It was helping turtles reach the water.

Truly, that action showed Nathanos I was worthy to be exalted with the Honorbound.

The clouds part and the Lord, your god, says in a booming voice, "I give unto you Kul Tirans Jaina Proudmoore, your one and only mage."

I got really excited about playing a Shadowmoon Prot Warrior, so waited until Darkmoon Faire and then rampaged through all of Kul Tiras doing every world quest available. Perfectly suitable.

Now my love of irony makes me wish I'd earned Honorbound renown your way.

I keep looking at them, and keep not being able to get over the new hands. They put paw pads on the palms of the hands, and tips if the fingers, and that's great. That's anatomically correct for a canid.

But they have these weird pads on the undersides of the fingers, too. Not only are they not anatomically correct for a canid, but, if they're thick like a canid's, they would also severely restrict the finger's ability to bend and curl.

I love their channel.

Interesting how the Sirens' song instead of being seductive and enticing turn out to be like Old God Whispers: Alluring Prophecies that give out promises to those who stay and listen.

A wise man would have everyone on the ship plug their ears except one guy with photographic memory who would be chained down so that the ship can make multiple passes in order to write down the Alluring Prophecies of the Sirens!

Once the writer of the prophecies has passed out the captain can be non verbally signalled to leave taking the prophecies to their home!
Blizz announced that they messed up on their Blizzcon slides, and there are no Zandi warlocks and there ARE KT mages.

Amusingly there were a bunch of people posting "WTF, there are no mages on KT! They don't have any mages in their culture!"

Well...there is that one KT frost mage. Good ol' what's her name...

Alex Afrasiabi said that the Lore team would discuss Kul Tiran Mages so the interview and Forum statements was more than enough to finalize Kul Tiran Mages!

Of course the errors in communications as the post calls them include the internal communications which thanks to the Forum statements is rectified!
I completely forgot ARK: Extinction was coming out this month.

I'm going to have so much to do while I wait for Zandalari to be playable sometime next year.
I hate to double post, but I feel like this deserves it's own post.

They added the model for the Glacial Tidestorm you get from Mythic Jaina.

Oh. My god.

I'm going to need to buy a mythic run before my sub expires.

The fact that Tide Elementals(https://ptr.wowdb.com/npcs/149501-jainas-tide-elemental) share the Blue coloring that the Glacial Tidestorm used by Frost Mage Jaina has I dare say that any Frost Mage who actually made an Elemental from their Frost Magic would get a Tide Elemental rather than the usual Water Elementals they conjure up through Summoning Magic.

With that said I'm personally going to file all Frost Mage Spells under Tide Magic in the Water Magic Folder(Death Knight Frost Spells on the other hand are already filed under Froststorm in the Decay file folder).
Just hit exalted with the Zandalari, which means I'm free until 8.1 hits.

Blizzard is trying its hand at quantum storytelling. The narrative exists in an uncertain plot superposition until the story is fully published to the customers. Then the probabilistic story wavefunction collapses into a single canon and the other quantum position becomes non-canon.

Lets look at a similar example

The War of Thorns

We have the Novella version of the war and the in game version of the war. Does it make more sense for the Novella they released with the collectors edition to be noncanon or does it makes more sense that the in game version is limited by in game assets and fitting the narrative into an MMORPG format? The obvious answer is the more detailed novella version is the more accurate one, yet similar to the cinematic it also doesn't show the PC's actions.

Now I'm really curious if communities like Wowpedia make judgements on cases like this for which is most canon.
I've been watching Crisis Core videos on YouTube and some YouTube Commentators have come to the conclusion that Sephiroth would stop being a threat if he knew who his real mother was...

I personally think that he would change form to a child in an attempt to give his true mother Lucrecia the chance to raise him like she wanted to while discarding his hatred in the form of his sword.

Of course the sword would end up becoming a threat of it's own since it's hatred without a sense of self and thus could easily possess anyone who wanted to use the sword... Now what kind of Final Fantasy character would want the Masamune?
Well I just ended up in a HotS match which Trueshot, it was as unpleasant as I expected.
For the Warframe players, it's 4tuna day barring delays. Supposed to be 3 gigs.
