Despite the fact that a large chunk of our guild were out toasting to the new year, the large pack of AJ'ers that were available didn't sit idle. After successfully warming up with several 40 man old world raids we grouped in some extras to our already large raid and truly gained 40 players. Once that happened we were on a nonstop killing spree to all the major horde cities.
At Thrall's den of deceit we executed a perfect downing but no achievement was made. That didn't diminish our hopes so off to Undercity, where there was no stopping us, boss 2 down with a successful achievement. That raised our spirits and we took off for the Bloodelfs monarch who was shredded like tissue, by the way, we used their holiday gnome making machine to become holiday gnomes to raid the city.
Finally, on to Thunderbluff, taking down the king their we needed to make a go at Thrall one more time. Since we had rolled through every city so quickly we made it back before he spawned(btw if anyone wants to know it took him 2 hours and 15 minutes to spawn). We turned the hut into an alliance hut and enjoyed the continues flow of the horde that provided us with entertainment while we waited. Just as we began to feel like we were going to be cheated out of the full achievement, bingo someone yells, "THRALL HAS SPAWNED!". We cut through him like a hot knife through butter.
Nowadays since Blizz has created the achievement system there are sometimes bugs but not many. The point is we did kill Thrall twice and we all know it was still red and not gray to us all in the raid. So, we still don't know what happened there with Thrall. The folks that stayed the length all received the achievement "For The Alliance!" and a nice Black Bear through the mail.
Gratz to everyone who made the numerous achievements with us on this wonderful new years celibration!
While I know we don't need screen shots anymore to prove that what I say happened, I still take them, just in more fun ways. So, see here, we have stopped the city streets with a AJ Black Bear patrol.
