Date: 14 January 2012 Location: Firelands Anj, our first contender for the award this year, showed us that excessive consumption of beer not only increases the frequency of bio breaks, it will also impair one's ability to listen. To the point where a comment like "I'm gonna ding exalted", is received by his beer enchanced brain and interpreted by the mis-firing synapses into "I gotta get my dingo salted". Thank you Anj for adding to our fun times.  |

Date: 14 January 2012 Location: Firelands We have all heard the saying "size does matter". But some of us just takes it a little too far. Cj, Athrek and McV decided that a normal size hit box simply won't do....please see attached image for a scaled sample. A note worthy mention for Leo, but he approached the engorging process of his hit box in a more sensible manner. Top job guys! Attachments:

Location: Heroic Bastion of Twilight
Group lining up to pull Halfus just about to charge in, Bannox: "Hang on, give me 5 mins, I just clicked on Hand of Protection and cast it on myself instead of moving the button"
Jay randomness: "I need teepee for my bung hole"
Valiona & Theralion
Jay: "You've got to stay out of the flying balls"
Soph with great disappointment in her voice: "Oh come on Jay, you can do better than that"
Valiona & Theralion Jay counts down the pull, everyone run's towards Valiona except Jay who runs to tank Theralion...
Next pull... Holyvoodoo has wow minimized recording the above in a word document, hears the ready check in the background, quickly tabs back, eats food buff in a rush and throws lightwell in front of Theralion as the group charges in to Valiona...

In regards to the large hit box that CJ had (see Booms post above)
Bannox: "Touch him, it's massive!"

Tornado phase is incoming and this is Visham's first run on this boss and Bannox on mumble calls her over to follow him around so that she can see how it's done... and he promptly face plants into a few tornado's in a row and is the first one to die while Visham is still running around at full health.

Nice one Holy, I came on to record this very event, but you beat me to it. This one is right up there with the best of Bannox's previous efforts to win this award. |

I have to admit, this Nipple of shame is of the highest quality...
Especially after he went to great effort to describe what to do to Vish and then gave demonstrtaions for about a minute of how to run around so as to not FAIL.
AND THEN actually in the fight ran from the oposite side to try and make Vish follow him so as to not fail, and what does he do, he Nipple plants himself face down dead in the biggest fail ever.
Of course Bannox will say he was making a huge point of exactly not what to do. LOL

And then there was one about that Bear who forgot to put the power pack on, so he could jump accross to the other ship in ICC. And went ont to wipe the Raid, because there was no tank over there...
LOL who was that Goon

I was simply trying to save a fellow raider but leaping in the path of the oncoming Whirlwind of death... personally I think I was being quite heroic.

3/2/12 - Dragon Soul
As those of us that had some tanking experience would know well, taunt is a bread and butter ability for us...well most of us.
Bannox, our fearless leader, thought he'd try something different on loot ship adds, meh it's only the hardest fight in the whole raid, lets not taunt the adds, lets stun them instead and see what happens.
A few wipes later, he finally realised his key bind issue. The result? One shot the fight. I shall add this lesson to the Tanking 101 text book.

Date: 23 February 2012 Location: Dragon Soul Thread's been a bit quiet of late, guess Bannox has been keeping a low profile. But you can't keep greatness down for long. So after Ultraxion, someone asks for a repair bot. As Bannox is our resident engineer, he was happy to provide. But of course Bannox was busy looting at the time (standard) and summons his "loot bot" INTO the loot chest (did I mention he was busy looting a tier chest piece for pally, priest, warlock with no other pally, priest, warlock in the group?). Whoever asked for the repair bot, I'd check your gears if I were you, I suspect Bannox's repair bot might have the gear switch hacks. You loot is now his loot. |

You know, poor Bannox never seems to get a break on this thread. There are many others who may earn a mention, Dynamisieze for instance. After dying on Blackhorn, he declared: "We just lost our hero*". Can you feel the modesty?

You guys really should give Bannox a break. He works so hard for you guys and deserves a big pat on the back. Keep up the good work Bannox!

Goodness, thought this thread was dead, then comes return of the Bannox and two entries popped.
3 May 2012 - Dragon Soul
Nothing out of the ordinary here, wouldn't expect anything less from Bannox, who switches to heals for Blackhorn to two heal the fight with Sil. Some way through the fight, Bannox: "So Sil, how do you feel about single healing this fight?"....<silence, perhaps Sil was busy single healing the fight>....Bannox continues "I'm still wearing my tank gears.".
5 May 2012 - Firelands
At the worms before Rag, Bannox "Rune, you grab skull, I got X. 3, 2, 1, pulling, mind the fiery...oh...how embarassing....Rune can you grab my worm as well...I ran off the ledge".
PS. Bannox auto-ran off said ledge again shortly after.
Welcome back, Nipple of Shame thread. Welcome back Bannox. ;D

I have an off WoW example for you all. DAYZ (Apocolyptic zombie outbreak game with perma death) There's three of us, Jono, Anj, and I all making our way through the North West airfield. This place has fantastic loots but with that comes lots of zombies and heaps of players. We're stalking through some of the outlying hangers popping off Zeds and picking up gears when we hear gunfire in the distance. Cautious and stealthy we investigate, mostly because dying is a pain in the @rse. We knew we might run into some players so the sounds of other people were not much of a surprise. What came next was however. We step outside our hanger to the sound of bullets whistling past. Prone a crawling we try and spot our foes wondering if they are indeed shooting at us. It's important to point out here that other players in this game are 10 x more dangerous than zombies. Crack! Jono calls out he's been hit and is falling unconscious. It's going to take a while for him to come around. I sight up for a couple of shots then i get hit. Unfortunately it's fatal for me however Anj is still there, watching our backs/loots. Surely he'll come to the aid of Jono and avenge me. ‘Anj, can you... Anj... ANJ?!??!’ ‘Dude... I jumped server...’ ‘No. Way.’ So at the first sign of trouble Mr all go no quit dropped trousers and bolted. Jono, alone and unconscious lay there a full minute or more by which time our assailants had moved close and with a simple tap on the trigger sent Jono back to spawn point 1. Self preservation 10/10 Gutting it out for the team BOO/10 I believe Anj died of starvation a little later as he’d managed to take everything but food with him. You know were the food was right? Strapped to the backs of the two dead people… Karma’s a behatch bro - Bannox |

I would have thought Anj have been living in Japan for long enough for the famous Japanese unyielding believe in honour to have rubbed off at least a little bit...clearly not. LOL

No Bannox, I didn't die of starvation. I was shot while looking for food at the airfield.

First fail of the new raid... Damage accross the raid is coming thick and fast while the tanks are being slammed like we're wearing tissue paper... the heals are barely hanging on when a certain disc priest says 'You know what?! A levitate should fix this!' Nice Anj, nice (I can't remember if this happened before the face pull of 12 angry dogs...) |
