Arianthe got the Squashling! And I wasn't even trying for it (Actually I'd been checking out to see what all she'd get turned into when tricked. So far, I like the bat, spirit, and human ninja costumes best). It was a very nice reward after porting into Silvermoon, apparently right in the middle of a zombie invasion, and getting changed and killed not once, not twice, but five times!. OMG! So I turned on my Undead tracking, made a run for the inn and stayed there until the little red dots all went away. XD

Also, I got an unexpected gift which made my night. Someone was in Silvermoon giving away stuff so they could delete, and I wound up being the recipient of their gold! (Poor guy had to chase me down on his mount because I was in Cheetah aspect and trying to get my arse out of the city before more zombies showed, lol). What made it even more wonderful was that I had been struggling to get the money together for riding training and my fruity bird all day, and it'd been a one step forward, two steps back sort of thing, with me still a good ten to fifteen gold short at any given time (repairs and then buying supplies for cooking so that I could bump that up too as I went along. Also, spent a lot of time running from zombies and waiting for quest givers to respawn thanks to the zombies, so it was a little hard to, you know, sell stuff, clear the bags, turn in quests for rewards, etc). Bad luck Just Loves Tarren Mill on our server, you see.

Told the guy he had definitely made my night, and if he ever returned to the game, to feel free to look me up. So, hats off to you, Grimbatol! You bought me my training, my mount, my guild tabard, guild bank, new, upgraded armor, better bags (including a NICE NICE NICE skinner's bag), and as many of the Alliance kitties as I could find on the AH! And I still have change left. :)

It's players like that, even if they're just trying to leave, that make it worth being in the game.

Even if zombies are trying to eat your face every few seconds. *g*

Yeah, I know I can asplody :) A lot of people are not having fun with the whole thing though (Half the folks on Trade are having a blast, the other half are QQing a lot), and I didn't want to be one of those folks who was 'forcing' other players to participate. This was before the plague had accelerated, so I figured if the player wanted nothing to do with it, she could take off. Mounted pally vs shuffling zombie? Yeah. :) Since it's gotten worse, my solution now is to try and shuffle to the nearest Argent Dawn as fast as I can.

Also, it's an RP server, so I'm actually within the quidelines for her; she'd rather suicide than become Scourge. ;)

And yep, I figured out the speed thing right quick last night after getting infected (And now I will never leave the depths of the UC castle without being on my fruity chicken first ever, ever again. lol). Like you said, it just looks faster when you're running on the ground and 'smaller'. *g*

I love that icon of Tard, BTW. :)
