After having a flawless clearing of a fresh Eternity Vault the night before (including a textbook SOA kill... seriously, it was flawless AND we got loots!), we decided to go back into Laragga's Palace to learn some new bosses. It was an amazing adventure, with some truly devious boss tactics (G4-BC... are you kidding me??!!). Anyhoo, we 1-shot the first 2 bosses, and quickly move on to the 3rd boss, a cuddly dood by the name of Foreman Crusher. After lulling some of us into being locked out by a surprise laser barrier, Crusher feasted on our two tanks + uber DPS sniper, ehem. Ok ok, take two! This time Crusher got a taste of yeller bus' true power and was soon sleeping with da fishes.
Ok, so now onto the 4th boss, a nice big robot with a truly inspired name: G4-BC. Yeah. Uhm, you gotta wonder if pretty soon the droid union in SWTOR is gonna file a lawsuit against the devs for naming slackage? Well, the names may be uninspired, but the fight was C R A Z Y! The amount of coordination and puzzle-solving genius required here baffles even this intellectual. Not to spoil the fun for anyone, and after COUNTLESS link-dead encounters with various raid members (pretty sure Soul nerd-raged on his cable company), we finally figured this sucka out and dropped him. There is something VERY rewarding droppping a boss after so many attempts, and major kudos to the team for sticking with it until the wee hours. My only beef is that our loot-wh*r3 main tank Hadus claimed he had to go to bed after, instead of pushing on to the final boss in here.... oh well, I guess we will deal with the fatty some other night.

SOA, the last boss in SWTOR's Eternity Vault, was finally downed by ROC last night. Sure, the Munk had to log on and bribe/beg/plead for people to join the OPS group; however, when we finally got the required 8 raiders, the group proved pretty determined. After a few mishaps (like people missing a platform... Sok & Soul) and some other raiding rustiness, the big alien finally ate some dirt at the hands of the big yeller bus. No loot aside (WTF???!!!), the group then went over to the newly expanded Karagga's Palace and downed the first two bosses. Good stuff all around!

Yeah, the maestro of fantasy football hax continues!
Last year it was the anonymous rescheduling of the draft day / time... I don't wanna hear how anyone could have seen the new time on our league home page!
This year, he somehow stacks the deck and ends up with Tom Brady (again)... and does secret trades with "his wife's" team in the back door alleys of yahoo trade land. Not so bad you say? Well, maybe not (and no, I am not bitter the hax is about to go 8-0 this season already), but at least he planned well and put as much distance as possible between us regular folk and his scheeming ways - yeah, CliffHAX has setup fantasy football haxing HQ down under! Hmph.

We are now playing Warhammer Online on the Order/Badlands server and World of Warcraft (Alliance/Shadowsong)
The origins of ROC actually come from Dark Age of Camelot (DAOC). We were founded on the Midgard/Lancelot server back in 2001 and have since stayed together as a group of people who enjoy playing MMOs together. In the beginning we were called Rulers of Camelot but being that we then moved to other games that did not incorporate the same lore we changed it to ROC.
We are a group of mature gamers that do not need to be “the elite” although we have quite a few hardcore members that play much more than anyone should. Our main and most important goal is just to have fun. As a philosophy we have a nice mix between hardcore and casual game play and do not focus on just one aspect of a game. We like to enjoy the games we play on a large scale experiencing all the elements of said game.

So I am pretty sure many have been taking some breaks from the MMO grind for a good potion of this year. With that in mind, and since this was really the first summer in a LONG time since I have had this much no-gaming time, it has inspired a need to share!
*** DISCLAIMER: this is NOT just to add some fresh content to the front page, and all the events described are real (but some names have been changed to protect the innocent... ehem) ***
To state the obvious, with a full-time job + wife + 2 kids, we are not really talking about a LOT of spare time here... but as you will see, fun things can happen even while not playing! Seriously!
June - October 2011:
Work conference in Palm Springs (3 days), but me and 2 colleagues decide to arrive a day early and drive from LA to Sin City, arriving just after midnight (we ate dinner at a Greek [wtf??!!] diner somewhere in the desert). Yeah, it was "Hangover" revisited, and this with two of the three who never drink - "Ram" and "Yogi" made an exception for the night. We hit every casino / club, caught an AMAZING British band (A Silent Film) playing for free at the Cosmopolitan, and somehow stumbled back to the room around 5 am. Getting up 2 hours later, we headed to our conference in Palm Springs, driving the rental car at speeds just below airborne.
Ok so back home and now it's time to prepare for the first of 4 concerts lined up during this summer of slacktitude (aka no gaming)!!!

Yes faithfull readers, Cliff has performed the ultimate HAX of the ROC Yahoo Fantasy Football draft.
It started with his not so subtle introduction of a ringer into our midst - his wife!!
And then he blatantly perpetuates the haxing by ensuring she gets the ole Payton M. over yours truly!
Do you need more proof? Well we have it...
