	Tier 6 DONE!
	Well, we finally did it. We killed the Beast. Whoops, wrong one!... Ah, here we go! (Yes, that really is the Beast. If you look closely you can see teeth.) Here is our triumphant army! I admit it took us a few tries to beat that event. Our leet strats were adjusted. We even resorted to hieroglypics, eventually. At times, drowning ourselves in the water seemed like a good plan. No matter how many times we died, we never lost hope. Speculation about the event ran wild. Those on list amused themselves in various ways. Football was a frequent topic of conversation. Our downtime brought up some pretty interesting questions about each other. (I think it was Smelly that killed her, personally.) Of course, we got some awesome stuff from the Beast! No one felt like dancing as much as Smelly did... ... and this is why! Last but not least, before you even ask... I think the wizards are on strike.

	Bye Bye Bugs!
	Well, we finally brought our RAID to Unburrowing. Yep. That is a very dead bug. Oh, and here is the RAID! Our guild leader knows JUST how to motivate us! It took us a few times to kill all those bugs, undoubtedly because we tried less superior methods. We found it was better to get pissed off than pissed on. We had plenty of time, between runs, to ponder the origins of... well, everything. Everyone was quite dedicated to finishing this event. We rid ourselves of all possible distractions... including, apparently, chest hair... Sometimes, the holiday spirit took over during downtimes... ... or was that way, way too much eggnog? The wizards have been slacking on their random TLs, so quotes it is. Last but not least, how we felt about finally killing those bugs.

	Underfoot First Blood Shed!
	Well, when I said Underfoot updates coming soon, I thought it would be soon, but who knew it would be this soon! Of course, the first blood shed in Underfoot did not actually belong to Fippy. We happily waved goodbye to Seeds of Destruction prior to early Underfoot release! To no ones surprise, after nine months of farming the same zones, we will not miss it. Boredom frequently set in, and we amused ourselves in various ways. Sometimes, I begin to wonder if things are said just to end up on the front page. Who is the alien, again? Being in perpetual farm mode caused never-before-seen changes in our guild leader. For awhile, it almost appeared that he was questioning his usefulness as a shadowknight! Of course, some things really do never change, and Ronak was able to resurrect his inner asshat after all, just in time for Underfoot. No update is ever complete without the wizard contribution. And finally, a hint of more things to come. Until Next Time!

	Hard Mode... What?
	YAWN. Oh, right, update! When we first heard about Hard Mode raids, we did not much like the sound of them. We were feeling a bit disheartened (read: pissed) because we hated the idea of only 36 raiding. We even considered playing other games. We were concerned about what this could mean for the coming expansion. Finally, we were prepared to face the worst... and roflcoptered it. Yes, you are reading that correctly. ALL of Hard Mode Tower, all of regular Tower, ALL of Hard Mode Korafax, Tyra, and Rallos, as well as all of regular T3. In 3.5 days. Ah! Here are our 36 Tower-conquering heroes! Including spiffy new titles! After our massive successes with Hard Mode raids, we were a bit full of ourselves, or in some cases, delusional. As always, some people just cannot resist giving way, way too much information. Last but certainly not least, NO update would be complete without the wizards!
