You still get disjointed Velkyn. Knocked me off that floating island-thingie too many time to count now, even poor Stereo.

Yeah, that's how I lost to him the FIRST time. I'd been doing pretty well (made it about halfway through the track) and then all of a sudden I got hammered by 3-4 meteors at once. I didn't get dismounted since that's been disabled, but the knockback/stun was JUST enough for him to get out of range and I failed. Sigh.

But I beat him the second time :D

Oddly enough I hated the Horde-guy before him more. Not only were his shots annoying, but his track was SO FREAKING LONG I was getting bored doing it...Xx

Damn iPhone spellcheck. Meant to say that you get dismounted. Stereo got dismounted.

I never did the races. I tried one (after hearing a ton of people telling me not to bother cause the stupid dismount was just too frustrating) and got dismounted within the first minute... so I decided to just get the rep with the other dailies and eggs. I just know myself well enough to know what kind of mood that would have put me in. No reason to feel that way over a game, ya know? ;)

I did exactly the same thing with my rogue, when he was grinding Netherwing. At that time the races dismounted you, plus I was trying to grind on an INCREDIBLY laggy laptop computer that was running WoW on minimum requirements. Impossible.

I tried the first race today on Silinrul on a whim. It went easy, so I just decided to keep going. On the third guy I got hit and went "OH CRAP!" expecting to go falling to my death....but I didn't. Finished the race, was deeply puzzled, wowheaded the next guy...that's when I saw the notice that "as of patch 3.3" you couldn't get dismounted anymore.

It's significantly easier now, but I don't see why you'd want to do it unless you want the "Skyshattered" achievement, or are trying to clear Shadowmoon or get Netherwing rep.

Yeah, the extra rep was great. I think I'll hit Revered tomorrow on dalies alone. After two hours of searching I only managed to find 2 eggs, so the extra help was nice Xx

The keep on "mainland" Outland is where I had the most luck. Ionce saw four of the pillars of smoke that indicate an egg at the same time.

Yup, I regularly scour the Dragonmaw Keep, I know 7-8 spawn points for eggs. I went through the ENTIRE mining section because eggs often hide in those little niches--not a single egg there. Flew over the island several times, searched at the dock, in the dragon skull, and at that section with all the flayers (where I found one egg). Just unlucky today I guess.

Lasted one month at my new job, and I'm doing a pretty good job. They keep calling me in and asking me to stay/come back if they need someone, plus another thing I shall not mention that's making me think I'm pretty safe. Two years and no job and now this, I feel..relieved.

I've also lost weight since I started working there, so my spirits are wayyyyy up right now.

Oh, and I beat Silent Hill: Shattered Memories and I'm currently working for the UFO ending. All in all, everything is going great for me now!
