I was on my merry way to get wow today. Also today is the super friday at Walmart and many other stores. As I entered my local walmart with my happy wife and daughter I walked directly to the electronic section and WOW ceased to be.
Broken, i proceeded to walk out but my wife insisted that i check the toy section to see if what we would be buying for little Sarah for christmas.

There in front of us was a super friday remote controlled dodge ram and my daughter Realllllly wanted it.

20 bucks i said to myself, not bad.

Then next to it they had that new interactivedvd console we wanted to get for my daughter so she can play educational games.

My wife insisted on getting and also got a dora the explorer game for it too. 34 for the system 14 for the game.

At that point my eyes where watery, there goes what little i had for WOW.

But it does not end there, i did know i had some secret just in case wow money , but so did my wife....

She goes and picks me up a new electronic shaver since my old one just died out on me.

I told her "no ill get one next time i get paid"

she tells me " You look sexy shaved" then gave me the cute cat eye face.

As the cashier scanned the items every beep felt like a low blow.

ahhh the agony 2 more weeks with no WOW :(

At least you didnt preorder the damn thing, Find out they wont get it untill a day after its released, and then when you go to the store when their suposed to have it they say "Where sorry, fedex hasnt shipped it yet". So not only do I have to wait till after thanksgiving, I have to wait till later friday just to "hope" to get it.

Oh well, at least I can hope for some free stuff due to it.

hmm...either your budget won't allow for the game(remember $15/month) or your wife is way too in control of your household assets.

Ever think of checking what kind of private savings she has? Maybe she's sitting on a lump of your money in her own account!
(ignore me...I have a tendency to twist situations into dark voids of paranoia and conspiracy)

EDIT: and btw, you're not missing much. Daily server shutdowns and ultra lag from items/death/other things.

I'd offer you my 10-day pass if you'd have told this sad story just a day earlier...

Unfortunately it is now gone, maybe someone else can come to your rescue...

The upside (maybe will cheer you up) the servers still go up & down a little, and though I'm not complaining at all, Blizzard is handling it way above my expectations, at least in two weeks, they will probably be a little more stable. Smiley: smile

Other than that, got nothing to cheer you up... Cause man, you're missing out on a great game... Smiley: tongue

Here's the good news - in another two weeks, you'll get to avoid the queue thing.

Sorry but that's all I could come up with.

Rate-up in sympathy :P

Man you're whipped, check aisle 9 to buy some COJONES!

seriously tho, all kiding aside, that sucked. You can rejoice that you can celebrate thanksgiving with a family which not many of us others can do ;)
Happy b-day to your kid if shes getting any money for her b-day try exchanging it for an IOU. :P
