WoW Moviewatch: Turpster's Dingstravaganza
On Saturday, Turpster, of WoW Radio, hit level 70, while live after the WoW Insider show. Being the wacky guy he is, he invited hundreds of little newbie Gnomes and Dwarves to come give him a beating on the Sporeggar EU server. As members of Turpies, they hopped and ran in droves for a chance to take down the level 69 Undead Priest.Regis, of Sunstrider, was kind enough to send in this player account of the event. Things apparently got quite hectic, as the Horde showed up to wipe out the newbs several times, but they persevered! If you would like to check out a higher quality version, albeit with interlacing, you can download it from Filefront. Unfortunately, he ended up not getting the kill shot of Turpster, so if anyone has video of that, email us![Thanks, Regis of Sunstrider!]If you have any suggestions for WoW Moviewatch, you can mail them to us at machinima AT wowinsider DOT com.Update: Here's another (very well produced) view, from show regular Kaiva.Previously on Moviewatch ...
WoW Insider Show Episode 42: Arena, addiction and Turpster's ding
Yes, we went live on the WoW Radio airwaves last weekend, and the recorded results are live on their site right now for your listening enjoyment. It was a full show -- Zach Yonzon came on to talk about Arena PvP, as did Amanda Dean (to defend her points from last week), and Matthew Rossi. Turpster was on as well, and if you weren't around on EU Sporeggar last weekend, you missed quite an event -- there were a ton of Gnomes and Dwarves who turned out to take down Turpster right as he dinged 70 on his Shadow Priest. Also on the show, we chatted about: The new Arena season -- why Zach things "L2P" isn't the biggest problem Hunters have in the Arena, what we're looking forward to with the new season, and why the timing on this season is actually just right PvE to PvP transfers and why Blizzard finally did them WoW addiction and exactly what we think of it A few things we've heard officially about the expansion -- the idea of Unified Spellpower, and what's up with Shamans. And finally, we answered email as usual from readers, including why I was completely wrong about the Gnome/Dwarf starting area, and what kind of good WoW and game-related music is out there to listen to. It was a good show -- a lot of fun to make, and hopefully a lot of fun to listen to. If you have a question or comment about the show, don't hesitate to email us: just drop a note to theshow@wow.com, and you might even hear it on the podcast. And if you haven't ever tuned in live to chat with us on IRC during the recording, mark your calendar: we do this live every Saturday at 3:30pm Eastern over on WoW Radio.Thanks for listening as always, and enjoy the show this week.
Cinemassively: Turpster's Dingstravaganza
Every Saturday, our sister site, WoW Insider, holds a podcast on WoW Radio. Last Saturday was special, though, as their station co-host, Turpster, also of Turpstervision, was about to hit level 70. He invited everyone to join him on the Sporeggar EU server as he challenged newbie gnomes and dwarves to take him down in their starting area.According to one attendee, Regis of Sunstrider, about 200 "newbs" showed up to take Turpster down. He kindly provided a video of the event, as well as a play-by-play of the action. Unfortunately, he was walking back from the graveyard when Turpster was defeated, so there are no screenshots or footage of that moment. Was anyone there that managed to capture the final battle?[Thanks, Regis of Sunstrider!]If you have machinima or movie suggestions from any MMO, please send them to machinima AT massively DOT com, along with any information you might have about them.
