Around Azeroth: Deliciously departed
I'm sorry that you had to find out like this, Mr. Wiggles, but sometimes we have to sacrifice for the greater good. I needed to take down some elites, and Mrs. Wiggles provided me with a vital 40 strength and 40 stamina boost. I know it's hard to see the mother of your children seared to a golden brown perfection and devoured by your owner. But don't worry, you'll see her again someday. Someday soon, actually, if my guild hits up Ulduar this week.

Around Azeroth: My friends are my sword, I am their shield
Prue of <Victis Honor> on Lightbringer writes, "This is a shot of me and other members of Victis Honor about to take down Hodir. It was nerve-wracking the first time but I hid behind my shield. He beat us down the night before, but this time we were determined and ready. I'm not quite sure what the night elf (Bloodreaper) was looking at. We brought him down the first try that night.

Around Azeroth: Fear me
Ho there, travelers! Drop your weapons and reach for the sky! Yes, you ought to cower in fear, for I am an infamous highwayman. With my mighty glowing knives, bad-ass cracked-skull tabard, bandit-style mask and impractical mohawk, I present quite the intimidating figure. Hey! I said reach for the sky, not run toward the exit! I'll stab you in your kneecaps if you don't ... oh. Hey there, nice giant.

Around Azeroth: The lost and the damned
In EMS, we like to call people who ride motorcycles without helmets future organ donors. Unfortunately, most classes in WoW can't wear plate helms, and cloth makes for poor protection no matter how well enchanted it is. Noamsie of <True Justice> on Aggramar-EU has decided not to postpone the inevitable, and is riding her Mekgineer's Chopper straight off a cliff and into oblivion. You can't get to heaven on roller skates, but I guess a winged motorcycle can ride you right into the clouds.Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder?

Around Azeroth: Starstruck
Our submitter writes, "Amenia of <Merciless Assault> on Medivh got bored leveling, so he needed a little pick-me-up. Crystals give more than just buffs in Un'Goro Crater."

Around Azeroth: Facepalm
Mom! Where's my favorite tabard? I want to wear it for screenshot day at school. What do you mean, it was in the rotting clothes pile? No, I didn't wear this yesterday. I wore my Knights of the Ebon Blade tabard yesterday. It does not smell! I smell! God! When I hit level 18 I am so getting out of this zone. I'm gonna move to Undercity with my band and we'll stay up all day and not cut our hair.

Around Azeroth: Fjord of the apes
Rkaar of Dath'remar presents the first in his series of classic movie moments. Today, it's Planet of the Apes re-enacted by an orc in Howling Fjord. "Oh my God. I'm back. I'm home. All the time, it was... We finally really did it. You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you! God damn you all to hell!" Next week, stay tuned for an all-tauren version of the airport scene from Casablanca.

Upload and browse screenshots at WoW Screenshots
From the makers of WoW Achievements comes a new site that's designed to collect and catalog nothing but screenshots from the game. WoW/Screenshots (clever) is a new site that's super barebones right now -- all you can do is view a few different uploaded screenshots or jump in and upload your own. But obviously, there's a lot of potential there -- if they can assign a rating system to screenshots, then you could have a Wowbash-style Top 100, with extra cool shots to check out from around the game. The website also says they're planning to put together monthly contests as well, so right now the idea just seems to be to populate the database, with the best entries coming to the top later.Of course, this isn't the only project designed to archive some of Azeroth's beauty -- we talked about the wallpaper project the other week (though that's more a project designed to hit every individual zone), and of course our great Around Azeroth daily feature has collected tons of great pictures from the game. But this seems like an interesting crowd-sourced way to do it, and with the WoW-Achievements folks behind the idea, it'll be fun to see what they come up with.
Around Azeroth: If you can't beat 'em, join 'em
After losing his way inside Blood Furnace, Rastakan of <Ascendance> on The Forgotten Coast had no choice but to learn the ways of the natives and assimilate into their culture. Too bad that all the ugly red shirts in the world won't cover up his bright blue epidermis. He'll either need to teach the fel orcs an important lesson about not judging others by the color of their skin, or he'll have to spend a few days soaking in a vat of red Kool-Aid.Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder?

Around Azeroth: Come prepared to raid
The raid leader thought he was being clear when he told the DPS to bring enough consumables, but apparently he needed to clarify exactly what "consumables" meant. Lithos and his guildmates of <Premade> on Caelestrasz left all their flasks in the bank for their Ulduar raid, but they made sure to bring enough Dark Iron beer to bury any conveniently AFK punk rock gnomes.

Around Azeroth: The old man and the sea
Natedoog of <Paularity> on WIldhammer has injected a much-needed dose of reality into the fishing profession. Sitting on a sunny beach in Stranglethorn with friends? Ha! Real fishermen get up at the crack of dawn, in the freezing cold and killer fog, just so they can go out and fail to catch anything and then get attacked by giant undead Vikings standing on the shore. Mmm ... giant undead Vikings.

Around Azeroth: The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgnomald
A long time ago, Khadrak of <Archaic Order> on Lightning's Blade-EU made a level 1 gnome for racing purposes.

Around Azeroth: The maw of madness
"Life is a hideous thing, and from the background behind what we know of it peer daemoniacal hints of truth which make it sometimes a thousandfold more hideous. Science, already oppressive with its shocking revelations, will perhaps be the ultimate exterminator of our human species -- if separate species we be -- for its reserve of unguessed horrors could never be borne by mortal brains if loosed upon the world." - H.P.

Around Azeroth: 57 channels and nothing but scaly demon butt on
Jared sends us this image from the end of the incredibly long questline in Nagrand where you, as the player, accidentally help convince Garrosh Hellscream that it's cool to be a raving jerk to everyone he meets by convincing Thrall to show him home movies of the time Garrosh's extremely crazy dad and Thrall totaly killed Mannoroth. So basically, all the antics Garrosh gets into from this point on are because Thrall really likes slides.

Around Azeroth: Original buttery flavor
With rumors of an oncoming cataclysm spreading through the cities of Azeroth, many residents have begun making plans for whatever may come. Valhalla of Spirestone has used his powers of light to create a waterproof, earthquake-proof, magic-proof crystal bomb shelter. He'll be able to survive any catastrophe, as long as he remembers to create some air holes. And the inside is made of delicious buttered popcorn-flavor rock candy! Actually ... not delicious.

Around Azeroth: Baby I wanna be first in line
Today on Alliance Gloating Theater, Julietmarie of <Molten Core Swim Team> on Velen is determined to be first in line at the Greymane Wall to welcome the Worgen into her faction. "Soon, new allies will come forth through that gate and the glory of the Alliance will grow even further, finally gaining that symbol of power that strikes fear into the heart of those who dare oppose us," she writes. "Kudos, Blizzard, for giving us what are essentially werewolves while the Horde get what are essentially very short trolls. Lorewise, both factions gain valuable allies.
