I hope everyone had as wonderful a halloween as I did! Managed to finish my All Hallows Eve achievemnt and still go out trick or treating IRL! Candy + sedentary computer game addiction = way too many extra pounds. Time to bust out the Wii Fit! =D

Wanted to leave you all with this excellent image from Aion today. Clearly nakedness sells, but nakedness topped with a pumpkin head, zomg! Merchants wet dream. From all of the vendors that spam Aion mercilessly, Happy Halloween! Every holiday is a shopping holiday. =)

It took me a while to get into the idea of Achievements in World of Warcraft, mainly because I disliked them so much on the console. Unlike the console version of achievements, which are essentially a glorified score board, the WoW achievements confer awards.

In fact it was one such award that started me on this crazy ride. My husband pointed out that one of the awards was a purple drake, a flying mount. As purple is one of my favorite colors I was immediately determined to get it.

The one hundredth post! That’s a big deal, especially since, due to my sporadic beginning, there isn’t a clear anniversary for tokenfemalegamer.com. Even though the very first post is dated July 2007, I didn’t consistently post until April 2008. That only leaves post counts as markers.

I have been wracking my brain, trying to come up with something awesome for my one hundredth post. The only result all that thinking garnered was to give me a time off from writing. So I gave up. For my one hundredth post I got a vacation. =P

Today is my very last day. There have been years of complaining at my house about me spending too much time in front of the computer and not enough time naked and pregnant in the kitchen. Don’t worry, I did not give in without a fight. He has the bite marks to prove it. =D

And so I present to you Token Male Gamer! My husband is taking over. He kept the name, claiming to be surrounded on all sides by girls. (Poor him!)

I wanted a chance to say farewell and thank you for (all the fish) reading. I hope that the site gets updated at least twice in the next year. Of course I will do my wifely duties and nag often from the kitchen.

/big hugs!

ps, happy april fools.

What is Hunter Wonder Day you ask, it’s the day that hunters turn into damage super heroes and get lots of fat loots. (Maybe I can convince Blizzard to add it to the official World of Warcraft Holidays.)

My little orc hunter definitely celebrate it just recently. Check out her obscene crit. (It is completely real, no photoshop magic here!)

Usually she runs more in the 8k crit group, but that day she did have some help (besides me!). It was in the midst of completing the quest The Battle For Crusaders’ Pinnacle. The Crusaders, ever determined to win, buffed her with bonus damage. That coupled with criting Kill Shot allowed for the 20k crit range.

But the Hunter Wonder Day was not over because after completing that quest she ran a heroic dungeon and got a fancy new bow! Drake-Mounted Crossbow !!

Every day should be Hunter Wonder Day. =D

The end of 2008 has seemed like a mad dash to complete everything. Fantasy Football wrapped up just last weekend, Seasonal Achievements in World of Warcraft are coming to an end, and Animal Crossing has been peppered with day long, not to miss extravaganzas.

Have a wonderful Holiday Season!

..Time!

With all the holidays and new games coming out, with World of Warcraft expansion and Warhammer Online, with Thanksgiving and New Years, this is a very busy season. I don’t know how people manage to fit everything in.

Enjoy the dressing up and dressing down!!

Wishing you all a wonderful spooky weekend.
