Shorty

So after an almost two week break which also coincided with some other guildies holidays we were back in Ulduar 25 last night. [During the break a 10man team got our guild's first kill of Yoghurt, but 25mans were few and far between.]

A couple of raiders didn't log on last night, something which is starting to irritate a lot of people, but with 24 we headed to Flame Leviathon and after one wipe we got our first FL+2 kill (he killed most of the raid in the process but still!). XT,...

.... and no I'm not talking about dead gnomes!

So last night with an incredible 27 people signed including 7 main spec healers our first reset run of the week was looking hopeful and despite starting with only 22 (and ending with our maximum of 23) it was a massace!

Flame Leviathan, XT, Kolog, Auriaya, Hodir, Freya, Mimi and Razorscale all fell inside our three hour raid and all were one-shots (unless you count the accidental pull and reset of Freya while clearing trash)...

This week's raiding had all the ups and downs and down right frustrations of raiding.

An hour later and the wipefest prediction...

short and ... err ... cute!

But before we get to that the big news of the week is that we killed Thorim(25) last night!

With the help of a couple of respecs and one alt we scraped together 6 healers and headed off to see Thorim for the second time. I was given the responsibility of the tunnel group and am the first to admit that the first couple of tries were pretty poor as most of the group had never seen the tunnel before. But we made steady progress and the first...
