The previous post was of course a half-arsed attempt at an April Fool (and not a very convincing one at that!) However, I caught my online buddy an absolute cracker at about ten after midnight on 1st April.
Here's an edit of the conversation (names have been replaced to protect the innocent and gullible!)
::Cyb:: Hey Anon, have you heard the new Alliance race has been revealed in WoW? ::Anon:: no? ::Cyb:: Yeah, they're called "Wisps" and they're supposed to be semi-copreal ::Anon:: well the Night Elves are Wisps anyway, when you die ::Cyb:: I dunno then, it's just been announced, they've been keeping it hush hush ::Cyb:: and the hoard have a new one called "blood elf" ::Anon:: this will be for the Burning Legions addon then ::Cyb:: probably ::Anon:: yeah... when i get my first character to 60... then i'll think about buying that...lol ::Cyb:: I'm being told that it is for that addon ::Anon:: yup ::Anon:: although they look like they're looking to mash up the Mage talent tree like they've been doing with others.. .so yay :) I get to pick all over again :)
::Cyb:: abilites: treeform - turn into a tree for 30secs, spirit +300 -50% dodge/parry axes * Wulf snorts ::Cyb:: Gatherer - +10 to herbalism, mining and skinning ::Anon:: what happens if a Mage casts fireball on a tree? :P ::Anon:: burn baby burn :) ::Cyb:: answer... final racial trait - big innovation for blizzrd... detonate - destroys the wisp dispells all buffs in a radius and drains 50 mana
::Cyb:: but... the downside is permanent death ::Wulf:: youch ::Anon:: that's a bit stupid ::Anon:: suicide a character you've been working on? nah.. no thanks ::Cyb:: it's true, look on the blizzard site ::Anon:: i'm sure it is ::Anon:: just saying ::Cyb:: ps... check today's date ;) ::Anon:: bah ::Anon:: feck off... my brain is fried as it is :P ::Cyb:: YEEEEESSSSS!!!! ::Wulf:: lol ::Cyb:: GOTCHA! * Anon cries ::Anon:: snot fair! ::Anon:: i thought I was going to miss it because I was going to be sleeping * Anon muttergrumbles ::Cyb:: Anon... take a look at the screenshots for a giggle
