Noobs of the Year

So today is the day I list the top 10 Noobs of the Year voted by all of you. I will admit many of these brought back a lot of funny memories. As always I enjoy reading anything you have to say. Hell I even got 10 votes for disbanding a For The Horde raid. So without making you wait any longer sit back, enjoy, and laugh your ass off at the people who made the list.

For #10 I was actually surprised, because this almost happened a year ago. Sure I remember it, but I was there. Some of the people who voted for Jakezombie weren't there and voted only by word of mouth. I guess falling through the hole in the pipe on the way to Gluth while you are supposed to be tanking is something worth remembering. Congrats Jake on making the list. Sadiee will be proud of you.

#9 goes to a former guildie of mine and now a server transfer Burnttoast. He enjoyed playing his DK so much the phrase "Can I bring my DK?" became the most heard thing on vent. This then progressed into pug raids and now the saying is being repeated by people who have never been in a Three Score raid. So Burnt congrats you have changed the way people play this game.

How could we have a noob list without a ret pally? Hercules was voted in because he pressed a giant red button when told not to. I am not sure what made him press it. Maybe the "DO NOT PRESS THIS BUTTON" or maybe the countless times everyone was told not to press it. We may never know, but for this act Herc was voted #8 on the noob of the year list. Congrats to you!

#7 on the list I combined. There was many many submissions of random people who were crazy socket humpers, but they only got 1 or maybe 2 votes. So to all of them I have combined them all to be #7. Congrats you socket humpers enjoy your +2 int, 8AP, +3spirit, and all those lovely other useless bonuses.
This guy was so epic everyone who voted for him couldn't even remember the name. Just known as "the person who didn't know how to dive". This leads me to believe that if someone could remember his name he would have made it much higher on the list. After all when is the first time you get a quest where you have to go to the bottom of a lake? Congrats Mr. Unknown guy you're #6!

The #5 spot on the list goes to Addyson for having a spec with 71 points in frost. This produced enough punch lines to last a lifetime. The spec is what it is very solid...

Now this next submission is not from Llane, and I have never had the pleasure. I guess this shows how the Nation has grown. His name is Mortøn. He apparently argues day in and day out that using Stamina gems as a tank is the worse thing you can do. Every socket he has uses parry. He is consistently dying in VoA because healers just can't keep him up when a boss hits him. Congrats on making #4 on the list. I'm sure your mom is proud of you.
Eryia was a discipline priest whose tank target would always die over and over. She would be consistently the lowest on healing meters. Now she was a discipline priest, but that doesn't mean ret pallys should be above you. She would consistently blame the tank they were not doing everything they could. Eryia is the proof that no matter how much gear you have if you're awful you're just awful. Grats on #3 who knows maybe this will make your target live!

Wally has only been known to us for about a week, but this was significant enough to get him the #2 spot on the Noob of the Year list. Wally not only complained the entire instance he was not getting to do the whole thing, but he sat outside therefore missing out on the badges he was complaining he wouldn't be earning. Not to mention he is using the most horrible gems in his gear. Hit rating to match sockets when he already has 500+ hit among many others. Congrats Wally you have been immortalized by being #2. I told you I would make you famous!

And finally the Noob of the Year voted by all of you is none other than Bagellord. Some of the moments of the past year had him jumping off a boat to save someone only to end up dying from fatigue. During Hallow's End he was there in Brill waiting when everyone saw him. People told him he was famous for being an idiot and he thought it was the greatest thing in the world. He got stuck in Stormwind for not dismounting, and of course he is still not Level 80. There are many other reasons, but it is with pleasure I give Bagellord the following achievement.

  8. I believe you mean "none other than", not "none of that".

    It's a weird expression if you haven't seen it written down :)

  9. If you armory Bagellord, and look at his stats, it say he never died from fatigue.
