How long has it been? Seriously?! Hello?! Jeeez!

I have no idea how long it's been - a year? two years? ten years? j/k.

Hey all friends who used to remember me, i'm back and i'm gonna try to keep an update on my blogs so I don't totally forget to like I did last time. Where have I been you ask? Woah, that's a long story. Basically, me and 121Matthew were talking with Goffy (if you're still here, you ass! :P)

And it basically 121Matthew was like, hey, zomg, World of Warcraft it's awesome buy it now. Because I love games, I did. So many months have passed, i'm sure I posted a couple of blogs about it. I remember when I was on the LU forums, which is long dead now - and the site, sadly. Sorry to everyone who looked forward to it's updates. We were working on 3.0 but we really lost track of our plans.

I was going to pay for a domain site even with bandwith to download the episodes. But unfortunatley, it took too much effort. Anyway, i've basically become a WoW (World of Warcraft) nerd. Yes, I play it a lot, but i've basically been playing games and staying in since like 11 years old.

When I went to college for the second year, (September 2008) - all was good, was going fine. But ever since October, I left college because I became depressed. I won't go into much detail here, i'll tell my good old tv.com friends on msn. (which i'll mention later, obviously.)

So yeah, here I am.

This site has changed quite a lot, and i'm sure my old friends are already like wtf is this at my blog, but yeah. I'm back. Code Lyoko has been over for quite a while, if you must know, I really found s4 quite good, with a great ending. *SPOILER* Xana was becoming too powerful and evolving from simple tediousness like in S1 to a full time commitment. Eventually this proved too much, and because Jeremy eventually realised there were thousands of replikas all over the world, Franz had to step in and obviously sacrifice himself to make a new multi agent system functional.

It was a great ending, but I wish we had more Jeremy + Aelita content, those two, ugh!

So yeah, i'm glad to be back, and i'm sure all my old friends want my new MSN.

Give me a poke sometime; Cavedogz@hotmail.co.uk

The big day is here - almost level 60...

Finally, last night I reached level 58 with some very cool things ahead - outland. I must say outland has its fun quests, funny things involve throwing bombs from a gryphon, (hehe) and other "missions".

I did loads of quests, although hard - I still done it. Got to level 59! and now - awaits level 60. Feel sorry for me because I need 540g to cover the epic mount riding lessons :'(

xp is definatley not bad there - its like 550xp per kill, which is a lot easier then just about 300xp in azeroth. Not to mention all the outland drops - like netherweave cloth, and knothide leather/ scraps.

When I DO reach level 60, I'll post some pics in for you :D I never dreamed I'd reach 60 let alone 70. Crazy xp to level - :( now its about 220,000 to reach 60, but thats good news because to level 61 its double. :'(

Ah, im sure I can do it ;) just, I keep dying. lol.

~Battlegrounds~ the new optive.

Recently I reached 51, (although this was sometime ago) alterac valley, its 40 vs 40 people - and its absolutley crazy. It can go on for hours per battle. Longest I read was 28 hours!!!

~Dwarf on a sabercat~

Recently, I got exaulted (highest rep) with a major city. I got one of thier mounts :D

~Crazy quest rewards~

One of the first quests I did in outland, I got a cool axe its like twice as good as mine!!!

~When I reach 60, you'll know~

The title explains it all. (In blog form.)

About the "WoW **** craze.

Hey! - been searching up on google about random things again. This time about "wow sucks" lol. Basically I was bored in college, and so - went on google and typed wow sucks, went on a forum, some people really have hatred for the game.

1. Paying $15 per month for it
2. Losing friends/girlfriend etc.
3. Becoming dependant on it
4. Doing nothing but it
5. Living, breathing, (not sleeping) playing wow.

heh, I actually spit on you people- sure I DO admit I play wow perhaps a little too much, I do occasionally go out with friends, but what you have to learn, its not the game. Its the person that plays the game - they get addicted to it, its thier fault.

But, Its my decision, I choose to play wow, as it has made me many online friends in the comminity. People who play the game play it to finish it- never over and over again.

People who obviously got sucked into the wow vortex a little too much:

1. Two american parents, about 22 years old. Thier newly born child died because of thier wow addicted parents. I personally spit on you.
2. An american teenager commited suicide after his account got hacked. You stupid misunderstood person.
3. A 18 year old man, never slept, bathed, done anything besides eat at his computer playing wow (yes with a potty under his chair). Sick bastard. Go out and get a life.
4. People who say - "im out getting **** while you nerds play online leveling up your nerdy online character. To be honest, you cocky bastards are either gay or tried wow and were crap at it yourself.

Now im like a normal teenager who enjoys the sensation of todays games. Love to see the graphics, what you can unlock at the end, working with guild mates.

There are people far far worse then me wow related - (look above).

Some preists dont like the latest patch...

Woah, I was looking around on youtube for some random stuff- lol, and found THIS video. It resulted in Game masters coming to mass sleep players (so they cant say anything-) and 3 hour bans each. It was crazy the video-

But its somewhat funny- lol but its not when the amount of spam... I love the song in this as well... :D

As promised, I'd take some shots of me in wow, so you guys can drool over the eye candy ;)

If you're in the gladiators arena with Cavedogzoo, watch out...

hehehe, already started earning arena honour points for level 70! :D you can buy really cool stuff with em if you win arena matches.

here's the standings depending on what level you are:

10-19
20-29
30-39
40-49
50-60 (my group)
61-69
70 (just level 70s in this pro type bout)

Im level 52- and my opponent in my level range (50-60)

Level: 50-54 (Yellow, best suited for me)
Level: 55-57 (Orange, harder to beat than normal)
Level 58-60 (RED, hardest to beat in the group)

Depending on colour levels of my opponents, say a 55 mage against me, would fit under orange. This however, may be harder to beat, but gives much more arena/pvp honour points ;)

With arenas in wow, the important thing to do, is work together, even if your friend dies in battle, you can still win the match.

I was up against a level 60 warrior, and 52 hunter. I had a druid on my side, who pretty much was the healer. he told me to stay still and wait for his attack (but, I snuck off thinking "hes the healer they're gonna go for him.) While I took a vantage point on a rock, I sent my pet in like mad to kill that damn hunter, so thats 1 down 1 to go.

After, the warrior was killing my teammate, he did! argh! So, I thought things quick -freeze- then apply a bandage to heal me for 2000 health woo hoo :D send in pet, aimed shot (1288 critical hit is the highest) then shot the F out of him :D

I won in the end, my teammate was suprised at me, thinking I was a noooooob :( hehe, showed him! :P

when I play- I listen to THIS soundtrack, prowning my eyes. And loading the Thorium shell into my shotgun, ready to pelt the bullet in that armour...

Hordes playing dirty tatics in pvp battlegrounds...

One of the things that many people say is "Alliance suck". We lose like 95% of battlegrounds, but this is because 50% of the time, the horde use bugs and exploits in the game to thier advantage...

Invisible wall in thier base, while the flag was taken, (I can track players on my map) I noticed as if he was in the wall? nahhhhhh impossible I thought. But, after about 5 mintues of jumping on the wall, I sort of hit a "fake spot". Went in, and saw a tiny room with the guy with the flag there!!!!

Obviously, I TRIED to kill him, but hunters are well, crap at close combat- its all about guns and the pet! :D he dropped the flag, it ended as a tie... :(

Cavedogzoo- the honourable title "bore warrior". In arathi basin battleground- where you have to capture and get resources to win (like capture the base) more bases means more rescourses.

We had 4 bases, and I told everyone- attack the farm!!! (its the horde spawn point) everyone, in the battleground... died. I was at the brink of death, when I somewhat lasted!!! :S Faked my death a few times, funny thing is it tricked another hunter away from me :D

Everyone said in the battleground "wow.... that Cavedogzoo-now HE owns!" :D:D:D:D::DD::::D::D:D:D:

I looked on the battleground stats:

Cavedogzoo (dwarf hunter)

Damage done: 134,000
Deaths: 3
Killing blows: 134
Healing done: 5,500
Bases assaulted (when I attempt to capture thier base) 7
Bases defended (when someone else attempts to assuault our base 6.

woah! :D (read the blog below for more insights lol)

btw: Immune to tags: beforehand of seeing this I use what I typed in my previous blogs:

Notice: Matthew Francis Gurnett? no? each of my names has 7 letters. which = 777. Strangley, I feel luckier on fruit machines!
Although I have a fear of touching live fish I have a wide diet of fish, ranging from many types... Wierd huh?
I am Dislexic. Yep! its true! when I was very young, I found it impossible to tell left from right and also mixing letters and mixing sentances apart sometimes.
Cavedogzoo was first thought of when I created a gamespy account to play one game I loved: Total annihilation. TA's logo is Cavedog, but I put zoo on the end!
My urine (wee) is 50% higher Ph scale then normal (I dont drink enough water, eat fibery foods etc.)
I can relax my heart rate to 36 B.P.M (Beats per minute) If substained long enough.
Underwater, my longest time for holding my breath is 58 seconds. Thats in a swimming pool you try it!!!
My left eye is VERY subceptible to light. So subceptible, that I am often seen closing my left eye outside.
Strangley, I feel my left eye can see in the dark better! 
I rarley ever take a full breath, I always "shallow breathe".
My body needs only about 60% of a normal meal of food to be "full up".
I have never been stung by a bee.
ARGH, although I have been stung by wasps!
I prefer to grow my hair long in winter, so I feel more warm then
I am "double jointed" my hands have the most features.
I use my own toenails as toothpicks! (honestly!)
When I was little, my left arm was growing bigger than my right, so I needed an injection to sort it out!
I can survive on just 600 calories per day.
I have never drank a Glass of water since June 2006.


Jesus christ, level 52?! whats going on!!!!

Holy poo on a steamed plate, im level 52! woot. Recently one of my "friends" decided to suddenly to instult me etc... (over 1 word)- stormed off put me on block list etc etc...

But enough- anyway- My new grinding spots-

Burning steppes (level 52-60) place
Searing gorge (level 44-50) place

New instance found too:

BRD (Blackrock depths)

I was exploring with my close friend of mine in burning steppes (he dinged 49, and so I thought I'd give him a "tour".) Actually we did quite a few quests together as well! at the end, we got bored with the quests and went into blackrock mountain, and we discovered blackrock depths inside as well...

Funny enough, felt like a breeze at start but when we went inside the instance, lol! 2 elite level 50 guess what? we both died lol :(

Already, im half way to level 53!- 2 weeks my target is to be 60. heh, fighting in PvP (player vs player) arenas! 2 vs 1 (the 1 being me) and I still won :D:D:D

lol, what was really funny that my friend was actually against me one time, we spoke on party chat, who are you against? LOL, it turned out it was 1 vs 1 me vs him!!!! DIE!!!

anyway, I'll post more screenshots including pics of outland- scary place all level ?? to me (at least 10 higher). Ciao!

Ding level 48!- Grinding- Good or evil?

Woo! after killing countless monsters in felwood (level 46-53 place) and not to mention farming leather to sell- I did it I reached level 48! :D

Also, my friend Killingjoke portaled me to outland- its amazing!!!!!!!!!! level 62 monsters outside, but I wont take them on yet :( Its so scary, level 60-70 players- some of them are on flying mounts! (You've seen screen shots of my normal mount)

God- my xp rate was "alright" at 303xp per kill, needing 129,100 xp- wasn't easy... Also, while I was in outland- some kind level 70 druid gave me 50g! :D

ARGH- last night- level 70 horde players, outside a capital city!- what did Cavedogzoo do? he attacked like the foolish noob he was. Want to know the outcome? yes? - well he hit me for 2743 damage. my health is about 400 below that...

In the end- took about 30 of us to kill them! some tough bastards I tell you!

- For those of you who do nothing but grind all day long on WoW, I have a message for you. You sad little bastards.- Level 70 draenei shaman after 6 days! (I have been playing for 2 months)

Cavedogzoo's new pet in WoW: Snarler...

YES!!! I DID IT!!!!!!!! I went to feralas again, thinking about Snarler... (A rare level 42 wolf) I found him and tamed him!!! YAY!

He's just like any other wolf, apart from being black with more armour that any other wolves, not to mention stamina. It's a little shock taking him to a place filled with players, and sometimes annoying; I had 20 people asking me how I got it!

The annoying thing with snarler, because its a rare monster, its hard to find, and a time wasting thing to do it. Some players "camp" out at the spawning place until they do encounter it.

However, after about 5 minutes, there it was... Lurking in the forest... I had no issues with taming it, just I was very nervous, because this is the first time I'd seen it, and I previously spent 1 hour looking for it too.

During the taming, it sort of "cloaked" ran away for a little, but not too far to cancel the taming, I got very lucky too, because there were other wolves around me.

An other thing that is annoying rare monsters have long spawn times. Snarler in this case wont come back until about 5 hours after it was killed. Also, it won't respawn in the same place, but close by.

I did the taming at an early hour in the morning, because other players would not look for snarler this late. hehe :P :D In the end, I got him and I named him Beck. In the next blog, I'll post a pic of me and him :D

Already, even in non enraged form it can do over 200 damage per critical bite! nice for an untrained, unhappy wolf. :D

World of warcraft, the Burning crusade is out!

Well, recently I have the new expansion pack to World of warcraft, the Burning Crusade! Its amazing! for those of you who haven't got WoW yet, go out, get it!

All you do is install it (takes an hour! long time I know) After that, you have to create an account ask a parent for thier credit/debit card details (note this will cost £7-9 vaies in different regions) Then you have to update the game to 2.0.3 (I think) with all the upcoming patches that were out before. Then! you can play ;)

You gotta select an Alliegience first of all;

The horde: (Tauren, Troll, Orc, Undead or blood elf)

The Alliance: (Human, gnome, Dwarf, Night elf and Draenei)

Now you gotta select one of the races in the Alliegience you've chosen (see next to The horde, or the Alliance)

Once you have chosen a race of intrest! you gotta.... pick a class! classes are these:

Druid, Mage, Priest, Paladin, Warlock, Hunter, Warrior or Shaman. Note: each race of people can only be some classes, like only Tauren and Night elves can be druids for example.

Once you've done all this, there's one more thing. A name. Pick any name, there are no restrictions to names; But offensive names, etc. Like I saw "Bin laden" on the server, he got deleted within seconds.

ARGH, finally click ok then enter world. Watch the intro to learn a little more about the race's history, and then you'll start out.

Starting out... The level 1 abyss...

ARGH, as level 1 you've got crappy armour an near enough empty bag... Wanna get some money? well, start out by killing animals you see, and get to know the spells you have on the action bar.

Once you've killed one; Loot it. See what it has. Generally, just collect wolf fangs claws etc, and sell them to vendors (tradesmen).

Continue doing this until:

You've reached level 4.
You have LOADS or a bag full of crap that you can either wear, or sell.

hehe, this does pay off going straight for level 4. Because your class trainer wont teach you nothing until level 4.

Class trainer? what are you on about?!

You can find your class trainer (for example "Mage trainer" below the persons name).

When I select a monster it has a picture of a skull on its level, what do I do and what does this mean?

Basically its at least 10 levels higher than you. Blizzard done this so you do ONE thing when you see one of these; RUN AWAY LIKE A BABY!!!

Obviously, unless you're stupid enough to venture out from the "noob camp" you'll see loads of at least level 5 monsters, and for a level 1 its near enough impossible to do it.

My character!!! yes, Cavedogzoo once again, born in WoW!
