So ye want tae bet on it, do ye?

Bloody dragged me intae the jungle. The Jungle! Wi’ trolls and snakes and all that sorta thing. Tae get… a tiger. A big, bloody, toothy tiger. If ah had known whit it wis he was ‘wanting a hand with’ before he dragged me tae Stranglethorn Vale I’d have told him tae go jump off a waterfall! He says it’s fer a competition wi’ the rather tasty dwarfette, Breana. Big skinny git has nae chance against a good dwarf woman!

Bre paraphrased the conversation she and I had rather well here. Basically we both wanted new kitty pets for our hunters (Without gettin’ the black-with-silver-stripes one from Terrokkar that everyone and their aunt has) and decided on Zul’Gurub ones. Ick! levelling them through to 70 is boring but not… if you’re competing! Arharhar! Starting today (Monday 2nd Jun) we’re going to see who can get their kitty to max level fastest.

Now, I went to get my kitty on Friday knowing I’d be out all weekend and that often Monday is a quiet guild day (hard to grab someone to form a raid). I told Bre and she conceded she’d trust me not to cheat but I likes to have my proof so this morning I asked the following in the BA chat:

Proofs!

So, Noobie and Softi are my witnesses! As you can see in the screenie there be no xp and no loyalty gain. I fed the kitty enough to make her hapyness go green so she’d not run away if something odd happened. Yay for goldseller spam. *Ahem*.  Yes, I do use grid on my hunter. And I have no macros. I am a huntard! What more do you expect from a grind-bot!?

Naming

I also have the usual problem of needing a name for my beauty! Any suggestions are appreciated - I’ve decided my kitty is a ’she’ so female names or, rather, no majorly masculine ones. Like Bob. I would like something jungle-ey or troll-ey or exotic-ey. She’s a tiger, for goodness sakes! Of course she needs an exotic name. I was vaguely thinking of Suma but it doesn’t quite come off the tongue ‘right’.

Anyways, Bre, you better get levelling fast! *wink*

    You should name him Jaffa. Or Peel. Or if you want something really obscure, “Inafrica.” :D Good luck getting him to 70. Let’s see if I can get Bisque his last five levels first…

    Incidentally, I’ve decided that I’m going to use Grid across all my characters when I realised that my hunter doesn’t really care how much energy the rogue has, or what his hat looks like, or what his name is… It’s small, functional; perfect!

    My deleted Orc hunter had a tiger like that once, she was called Samira. Later she had a black panther called Demali….either of those any good?

  4. [...] /hug and Gun Lovin’ Dwarf Chick hare in a race for Cat leveling. I’ve submitted name suggestions on both. I’ve names many of Softi’s pets and alts (and the name of her original blog site (and so her wow one too) originates from yours truly too). [...]
