Just a heads up, the preliminary planning thread is posted: http://guild.blueforgefire.net/forums/index.php?topic=4792.0
The dates are Fri. 6/20 through Sun. 6/21.
For the purposes of sanity and version control I will not cross-post the coordination, so if you are interested in going you’ll need to register on the BFF forums. If you want to be included in activities please sign up (some things will require a headcount)! Hope to see you there!
Also here is the promo video I made for it (BFF site URL is at the end): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CmUElILqS4
Blizzcon 2007 tickets now on sale!

Several of us still plan to go to Blizzcon in August in CA. Fouler and I are staying with his brother and family, Anacrombie and his fiancee are staying at the Anabella (sp?) Hotel and since Gressil lives local to the convention I imagine he doesn’t need a hotel.
If anyone wants to go (I remember some had financial challenges but maybe you’ve won the lottery since then) let us know, I’d love to meet up at some point!
I’ll post more details in the forums by mid-July.

You know you’re having too much fun in WoW when you don’t get around to updating your guild’s website news for months . . .
The Burning Crusade expansion has been released, the initial server bumps have been smoothed out, and most folks have successfully blitzed their main characters up to lvl 70. Some Blood Elves have joined our long list of alts and we’re getting familiar with all the new zones.
Just a reminder that if you ever need help with a quest or want to do a dungeon run and there are not enough Crux people available, just holler in the BFF channel (/join bff) and anyone in the Blue Forge Fire guild ally group may help. There are members from BFF, Bulletproof Penguins, Funkytown, Ghost Force, Cult of the Lazy Peon, and a few others in that circle. You are also welcome to go to their forums and sign up for scheduled runs: http://guild.blueforgefire.net/ .
Ever the gluttons for punishment and die hard PVP’ers, Ramprasad and Guzhta have formed a 2v2 Arena Team. So far the results have been more “die easy” than die hard but honor points are honor points — eventually the time will pay off in shiny, uber rewards. If anyone is interested in forming a 3v3 team let Ramprasad and/or Guzhta know: some BFF members have expressed a desire to join us for this.
Crux Draconis has also finally entered the 21st century and moved on from Team Speak to Ventrilo! Fouler (”Vel”) and Guzhta invested in a server and have set everything up — see the Guild Info forum for install and login information. Please note that we are sharing the server with our friends from Fellowship of Elders, Shadow Ops and Dark Nemesis (Alliance) so don’t be surprised if there are folks on there that you don’t recognize . . . they are our guildmates with fluffy alts. : )
The Roster has finally been updated to be compatible with The Burning Crusade (WoW v. 2.0) as well so be sure to upgrade your Character Profiler mod, go to the Roster page and upload your profile. If anyone runs into any problems doing this contact Guzhta for help.
Guzhta finally got around to updating a number of homegrown WoW guides so once those are posted please take a look at them and provide corrections/ additions as necessary.
The Gallery is much in need of updating and though there is a huge pile of screenshots waiting to be uploaded feel free to contact Guzhta if you have any you’d like to have posted.
See you in Outlands and may your blades never dull!
