Hey everyone, I hope you are all having a great summer. My sister and I are in the process of launching a dozen websites for our Pophangover Network, and we’d love your content. One of the new projects I will be taking on is called: World of WarCaps – and it will feature captioned warcraft screenshots. So if you have a funny idea or an interesting WoW photo, there is now a spot to show it off!
WorldofWarCaps.com is a growing database for those in need of a clever photo for their warcraft blog, forum signature, or perhaps just a daily laugh. Song lyrics, ad slogans, cheesy plays on words, and goofy WoW references are always welcome. There is however one rule – no LOLspeak! Someone had to do it, and that someone is me! We also have a bunch of other new sites you are welcome to contribute to as well, and I look forward to seeing your content!
Happy 3 years to the official VGO, WCO, and Zero Commit guild – The Illuminati Order! To honor this special occasion Shibdaddy will be running a PvP throwdown this weekend.
What happens when you grow up in the 80’s and then download the free version of FRAPS on a boring Monday as an adult? I guess my “I’m looking for group” spoof of Lionel Richie’s – Hello, is it me you’re looking for? I wrote the parody lyrics and sang them over some WoW in game footage of my priest, it only took me a few hours, but I think it is mildly entertaining. No one ever does a cheesy song .. so I figured it was about time! So pack a tissue, and enjoy.
Edit: I put the movie on Warcraftmovies.com and the graphic quality seems to be better than the youtube version below.
Edit: The video has been featured on the main page of WCM as one of “Today’s Spotlights”
Since this morning I have been getting piles of e-mails, private messages, and tweets over something the folks over at The Daily Blink posted because of the similarities to a blog post I made back in November, COSMORPG. It seems the magazine cover is getting them some attention on the web, including over at The Instance Blog.
(my photo from original post)
I have since spoken with the creators, and they assure me this is just an uncanny coincidence. To prevent any further rumors from flying around I suggested they add a footnote to their blog entry mentioning my post.
* Daily Blink’s Chris has since posted a piece about it here, thanks! So let’s put the issue to rest and take some time to enjoy both Lady Sylvanas Cosmo spoofs.
This week on Warcraft Outsiders I will be announcing a contest for your very own PrintWarcraft Poster. The codes will be a $30+ value which covers a 12×18 (or 18×12) poster and ground shipping. For more info, or to fool around with the creator tool you can visit printwarcraft.com
I just designed one for Chelley, and will be reviewing it on air when it comes in. I can tell you right now that the creator is very cool, I had a good time even making one and I cannot wait until it arrives!
To enter you must:
1) Play World of Warcraft and have a character over level 10 who is in the armory
2) Post in this thread
Three winners will be chosen at random via a number generator. You have until Tuesday the 15th of December to enter by posting here. As a thanks to those who have put in the time with us, I have decided that two prints will be reserved for people in the guild (as of this moment) the other one is up for grabs to all of our listeners no matter where you play.
Big thanks to the guys at printwarcraft.com for making this happen. More details on this weeks Warcraft Outsiders podcast!
