Personal Information:
My name is Tike, im a 19 year old danish male, currently living in Norway.
I am a soon to be graduated 3D Animator, after which i will be working full time untill i move back to Denmark in january.
Character Information:
Tjaldelama - Elemental shaman, Orc.
Armory link: http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Dunemaul&cn=Tjaldelama
This is not my first character, but in time i have settled down with this as my comfortable main char, and intend to continue playing him through Cataclysm aswell. I have a level 80 Blood DK (tank in quite decent gear) aswell as an 80 Fury Warrior
Raiding:
Basically i can raid all evenings of the week, but the 2 days B-team does is more than perfect for me. I want some freedom to play my alts, do some PvP, or even get out in the sun or hit the town once in a while. As of right now, i am unable to raid tuesday and every other saturday, but as i mentioned i will be going full time soon, and therefor not working in the evenings anyways.
Gaming (optional) and World Of Warcraft history:
Well, basically i have been playing video games ever since i can remember. Got my PS1 before i hit the age of 5, and even before that my time was dedicated to DoS games and Game Boy ^^ Started playing online for real with GTA2, Quake 3 and Diablo 2, and since then my PC has been reserved for online gaming, while the solo stuff happens on the Playstation 3 once or twice every other week :) I started playing WoW somewhere not too long into TBC (i had been stubborn for a long time, and was still playing D2 at the time), had a few friends that were playing, however i pretty much missed out on the PvE part back then (yes, i am a very sad panda because of this :'(), all my friends were 100% PvP oriented and naturally i thought this was the way to go. I played a warrior at the time :) When Wrath came i decided to reroll a DK to try something new, and after a while of running HC's and being a retard i finally woke up and began raiding, and i have been hooked ever since then :) I got a friend of mine to start playing (Inqontrol), and it wasnt long until we were in the same semi-casual swedish guild (BoF) and progressing through U25 together. We made it up to and including Mimiron, but before we could get any further, the guild unfortunately started to turn around, and all of a sudden 3.2 was upon us. With most of the core group long gone, we were unable to meet up with a decent group, and eventually we had to say goodbye, and we joined RM and got introduced to hardmode raiding. When RM did the merge with FB, things kinda fell apart for me. I didnt like what the guild had become, and i left, rerolled a shaman, went casual again and joined a small danish 10man guild. We made it to Sindragosa on 10man, and to Blood Queen on 25man, but sadly the story repeated itself and the guild sort of vanished. People stopped playing, we merged (with like, 3 or 4 of our old group remaining :-\) with a guild i was enoying VERY little (Release and Run) and after a short stay i left. After that me and Inqontrol have been toying with our own project of running a guild (Hardcore Hooligans), but after no more than around a month, i have realized that this is not my call, and i have accepted that i am not man enough for the job. The time invested/feedback ratio, and the lack of dedication from what would appear to be skilled and geared players is sadly more than i can handle.
To make a long story short (too late), i have done basically all content in Wrath, excluding some of the later Ulduar HM's (this includes Alga ofc), Anub HC, and Sindra+LK :D
Why do you want to join Iron Edge?
I know a few people in the guild (it's a large guild, who doesnt? :P) and my good IRL friend Inqontrol is applying with me, and i would always prefer to raid with him, even tho that is ofcourse not always the case ^^ I dont believe i have the steam to be on a raid team that goes at it for 5-7 days a week, but that doesnt mean i dont know my stuff, and want to be amongst other dedicated and skilled players. Furthermore i want to find a guild i can settle down with from now on. I think IE could be this guild. The mix of twisted humor and dedication to the game suits me very well ;D. I far from see myself as a guild jumper, i would much prefer to just stay in one guild, but i have been in a handful of guilds in the span of Wrath so far, and i dont really enjoy the element of being new in a guild all that much.
What can I offer to Iron Edge?
You can expect a guy that knows almost all WotLK encounters from first hand experience and always have the theory part locked down before attempting new encounters. A guy that always has the best possible gear within my reach, along with the appropriate sockets, enchants and glyphs. You can be sure i always meet up when supposed to, and on time, prepared with the right spec, flask, reagents, food etc. Also, i can assure you that i know my class and stat weights, and provide the highest possible dps output to the best of my knowlege.
Last words?
Nothing much, other than i hope you will consider me for membership. I cant wait to get back into some serious raiding :) Also, i love the smileys :-*
Thx for taking your time to read and digest my application people :)

It looks you spend lots of your time to write this one. Great application so good luck.
-
Great application man, can't comment on the class, but gear looks to be at a good level for ICC 25 hard modes. Not being able to raid Tuesday is bad, since it's one of our 2 days. Good luck!

Yes i know, i currently work on tuesdays until 20:30 (i live 2min from work tho, and i always leave a few minutes early, so i can BE online at 20:30 if i want to), but as i said it is only for a short period, as i will soon start to work only during day time...

Ah that's not too bad, Grilly / Hugman the officers will probably get back to you before next weeks raids!

My back sucks, that is indeed correct. I am making way for Dislodged, that's the only reason my hit rating is that high, although i dont really mind being hitcapped without Misery/FF..

Ah cool, no sorry dont really have anything online. But to be perfectly honest, im not really very good :P Spend some months learning about Maya, then switched school and started from point zero in 3ds Max. I wanted to be an environment/probs artist, but im not too sure anymore, since i apparently need to be awesome at character modelling and animation aswell (and i'm not). Dont really know which direction to choose :(
-
Yeh i know shit about 3D....
Im a flash/after effects man myself.
but we use aftereffects to make most of our '3D' assets .. as its quicker . and can be just as effective to suit our means.
take a look at this when u get a chance :)
Me and my partner Will animated this last year.
I did all the character design and animation, and he did all the backgrounds and composition.

That's a really sweet movie mate, and very impressive work aswell, i used to work alot in Flash, not for animating tho (i did some stick figure shorts, but nothing too ambitious), i just love to draw in it. Limited compared to photoshop but a completely different experience, and i dont care what people say, it beats the crap out of photoshop when it comes to drawing with a mouse rather than a drawing tablet :)

i only use tablets now ...
Mouse only for gaming
-
Unfortunately i dont have one, gonna probably buy one but for the moment i only work in 3d, no real use for it there :P
-
This http://www.3dconnexion.com/products/spacepilot-pro.html (http://www.3dconnexion.com/products/spacepilot-pro.html) has many use there!!
also tablets r amazing when it comes to texturing 8)

Ye i have no doubt that tablets are amazing for texturing, namely for the creation part in eg. photoshop, but i still think it would feel alien to me to use it for modelling. Also, that "thing" looks.... well.. scary! :O

Mudbox or zbrush rlly make me feel that way

My thoughts exactly Nach...
-
Since it has taken you a consiberable amount of time to answer my application, and because i have gotten the impression that you are in no need of elemental shamans, i have decided to write an application to Equilibrium, and as such i guess you can see my application as withdrawn.. Feel free to contact me should you suddently become interrested though, as i might still be available. Thank you for your time :)

B-raid officers are fast and awesome.
-
well considering i applied 26. of may i think i have been fairly patient hehe.. Dont get me wrong, i would still die for a spot but i can't sit around and pug until Cata comes out.. I hope you understand :)
-
We changed some responsibilities around in the B-raid a couple of weeks ago. I guess you're app got lost in the shuffle. Sadly we aren't looking for another ele shaman atm.
