Text of the page (random words):
h that in my mind i received a ping from one of the raid guild s leadership later that day cardwyn do you have some time to talk uh oh first she used my full name cardwyn which i only hear in raid when the raid caller leader says something officially in raid or when the loot master says it when i win something second with the rather generic do you have a second to talk following so shortly after the thadd argument i got that sinking feeling that i d overstepped my bounds in the parsing discussion and i guess she drew the short stick to talk to me about it well i said might as well get this over with i responded and said i had time today or tomorrow but now is fine too i was alone in the house at the time so no big deal after a couple of hours and of course after my youngest and her boyfriend had dropped by and were up in her room she finally responded and i pulled on my headset to chat while i worked on dinner so card she began you re aware that in bc we re going to have two 25 person raids right right i replied realizing belatedly that mage parsing was not on her mind i m going to be leading the monday raid along with a couple of other people i d like to know if you would like to join the raid leadership to be our fourth i blinked this i was not what i was expecting i mean in the raid surveys that we d filled out i had checked a little box that said yes if i wanted to help out in some way i d conveniently ignored the entries for raid caller loot master and other official duties of raid leadership because i figured i could help out by doing a few minor things here and there after all i m not exactly the sweatiest person out on the raid team by a long shot somewhere in the back of my head was a small voice saying just how few people offered to volunteer before they got to my name but it was an offer and i accepted it without hesitation we chatted for about 10 15 more minutes and finished the call as i took off the headset i suddenly realized what i d committed myself to doing i was going to have to give up on my grand dream of taking my time and exploring outland at least initially and i was gonna have to get sweaty no way around it well crap around the same time with the latest patch came the ability to dethrone a gm if they d been marked as inactive since my guild s gm has been inactive for months it was kind of a no brainer that i took the opportunity to perform a coup and take over the guild sure it s a guild of essentially me at this point but hey it s something and i didn t even have to gather signatures or anything either it had kind of irked me for a while that if the gm wasn t going to even make an effort to come back he could have given me or someone else the gm job and then left but oh well i guess people figure that things will remain unchanging i once asked him about some of the people who leveled in the guild an then split and he kind of shrugged it was his guild i was informed and he was fine if people didn t necessarily want to stick around or anything i thought it weird to not have a vested interest in the people in your guild that you didn t necessarily know that well but i rolled with it and now it wasn t his guild at all anymore it s kind of weird how my work instincts immediately kicked in when i began analyzing the documentation we already had usually i try to separate my work from home life and in spite of me working from home for a couple of decades i do that fairly well unless of course something like this comes along and then my lizard brain says ooo data and then the work part of me wakes up naturally the next thing i thought of was i don t have enough info on raiding in tbc or classes for that matter to help out so i started reading up on raid compositions goals and whatnot this sort of thing has been my diet for the past week i quickly discovered that there was going to be a problem as part of the raid leadership team i was guaranteed a spot in the raid but a lot of the 25 person raid compositions in tbc had only one mage in them and with two raids that meant 2 mages total our core group of mages currently totaled four i knew that at least 3 of us were planning on playing a mage in bc classic and if as i assumed all four of us would we d be hard pressed to find space for all of them while i could theoretically switch to az the slots for rogues in 25 person bc raids numbered somewhere between zero and one and i knew that we had far more talented rogues out there in the raid than me i cursed up a blue streak realizing what that meant unless something happened we were at risk to lose at least one of the mages from not only the raid team but potentially from the guild and our mage crew is pretty tight if we all lived in the same city we d likely hang out together go for beers and in general have a good time we look out for each other and reach out when we think things aren t okay it may be totally selfish but i didn t want to lose that friendship so i decided to sacrifice card listen card it s just a figure of tell you what go finish farming demonic runes and i ll explain it later i brooded over this decision for a couple of days because i ve grown quite fond of her it s likely due to my writing attempts because her fictional personality is a mesh of my two daughters and i ve connected to her in a way that i never did with my other toons but i ve played a ret pally before and i ve played a warlock before and both were going to be needed in bc raids i was fairly certain nobody was clamoring to play ret the only person i knew who did had to retire from the raid due to personal reasons so i could slip into that role fairly easily and i already had card s sister slated in my head for a ret position so i could do that if i was going to lead i had to set an example and do what i could for the betterment of the team my time has come hold yer horses there kid i took my concerns to the raid leader who told me that once the teams and leadership were announced there was going to be another survey to see who wanted to go where so she said we have time so just wait and see okay i could do that a short time later the raid leader pinged me in discord that we had an issue since a lot of the raid leader tools weakauras and add ons are configured to be guild specific my presence was going to cause problems she cast out a feeler about whether there were any real issues about joining the guild i kind of figured that this would happen and i was surprised that the topic wasn t broached when i initially agreed to join the raid lead team so i d already decided it was going to be okay i laid out my checkered history with guilds but i told her that since i d made a commitment i ll follow through on it and join all i asked was that since i hate being the center of attention can we please do it while hardly anybody is on that went as well as you d expect oh it worked out at first because only a few people were on at the time and half of them were guild leadership and so were aware of my decision but once they changed my tags in discord well this was one of the more tame memes you get the idea uh yeah of course before all that happened i wasn t about to give up my newly acquired gm role in my old guild so i managed to finagle something and move az into the gm role freeing up card to drop retail orphans and join valhalla it all blew over after a day thankfully so by the time the friday progression raid was set everybody had gotten the ribbing out of their system but except for a few people in the two raid lead teams and guild leadership nobody knew what was coming when the raid leadership teams were announced and there has been drama the curse lives and guess who is often the owner of said ignite i watch those threat meters sigh and say i m gonna have to lip aren t i we re one of the few guilds on our server that have cleared naxx and yet don t have a single thunderfury on the raid team oh we ve tried for that second binding off of baron geddon for almost a year on a regular basis and still we haven t gotten one to drop for either of our tanks who have a garr binding if we had even one tf the additional threat would be enough that we could just go to town on thadd this is by memory so it may not be completely accurate and tequila i see you raike we worked on an overview statement as well as a proposed raid composition this weekend and the raid leader and i decided to mark me as tbd so that if things work out i can play on card but if not i ll fill one of the other slots as i ve alluded to in the past i m extremely shy in real life but every day i get up and put on a virtual mask to get me through the day when i first went to university everybody had to take a day s worth of psychological tests when i received my results back they included an appointment with a university psychologist because the psych staff was concerned about my ability to handle day to day life in college when i finally met with the shrink she took one look at me and said you look fine so why the results i hide it well i replied eta replaced raid teams with raid leadership teams

tired of holding it so i m putting this placeholder out while i m waiting but there was a price to be paid at least from my perspective i paid it willingly but it did not change my personal opinions
