1) What did you do in the World of Warcraft in 2009 that you'd never done before?
End-game. I did reach the end-game is both Vanilla and the Burning Crusades - but both times I didn't take much part in it (who wanted to party with an under-geared (and clueless) hunter in Vanilla?). To list something completely unique it would be main tanking raids (Naxx and some XT/Razorscale in Ulduar).
2) What was your favorite new place that you visited?
I really enjoyed the parts of Ulduar I did see and Storm Peaks as a whole. The epic scale of the place really set the tone for the raid.
3) What would you like to have in 2010 that you lacked in 2009?
More time to play? Actually I had some time to play in 2009, but not recently. Perhaps a better want is the ability to be satisfied with the amount of time I can play.
In game however it would definitely be epic flight at least for Keluin... must concentrate on saving up those coppers.
4) What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Having a second child (although the props go to my wife there - my achievement was not fainting during the whole process)... and still being able to play WoW. Also being focused enough on one character to gear up a warrior tank and tank raids...
5) What was your biggest failure?
Not downing Malygos with the guild... actually that wasn't really a failure - we did really well working as a guild... just couldn't bring it together in the last days before my daughter was born.
Apart from that - probably my self-discipline on my WoW playing time before my daughter was born. There were some late nights in there that really shouldn't have happened.
6) What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Doing somewhat regular raiding... and also returning to playing after a break - which I wasn't sure what/how that was going to happen.
7) What do you wish you'd done less of?
Searching for a good guild to do some raid with that fit my time schedule (or lack there of)... chancing upon them while doing my Argent Tournament dailies was such a lucky draw!
8) What was your favorite WoW blog or podcast?
Hmmm a tough one. I culled my reader when I stopped playing to give myself a good break... and I can't remember all I was reading before then. Yakra's Mirror Shield (and his warrior guide that started on wowhead) probably was one of my favourites. I was sad to see him stop.
9) Tell us a valuable WoW lesson you learned in 2009.
That you can play, have fun, make some progress and not let WoW dominate your life even if you only get to play for a few hours per week... however it is still a lesson in progress to be content with that amount of time!
