WoW Crossword: January 13th, 2009

Posted on Jun 28, 2009 under Crosswords | No Comment

Filed under: ,

Some of you may remember that some months ago, we tried out these WoW Crosswords on Sunday mornings to go along with Sunday Morning Funnies, to give your lazy-day a slight newspaper feel. Open up the blog, read your comics, fill out the crossword, and then read the stories. Really, though, what WoW player does that on a Sunday? If you’re at home, you’re probably killing boars or whatever and not trying to fill in some blanks. Tuesday is more likely the WoW player’s Sunday, isn’t it? Kind of a slow day, you catch up on the news, you don’t have to worry about tending to the crops, so you find other entertainment, right? So let’s try this crossword thing again, but with feeling.

Here’s how this works: Below the cut will be your hints/questions. There is only one correct answer for each blank. Some answers are two words, and if that’s the case, leave the space out of your answer. Pretend the space between them does not exist. Most of those ones are obvious, and usually marked.

All of the questions are related to WoW, WoW Insider, or the greater community around the MMO, such as machinima, fan content, or simply related nerdity. For example, one day you may run into a question in which the answer is Kevin Werbach. He plays WoW and has been mentioned on our site, so he is fair game. You will not, however, get a question like “What is Batman’s true identity” because as far as I know, that has nothing to do with what we do, unless Bruce Wayne is the next Lich King. If that becomes the case, we’re just screwed then, aren’t we?

WoW Crossword: January 20th, 2009

Posted on Jun 28, 2009 under Crosswords | No Comment

Filed under: , ,

It’s a new week, and that means a new crossword. If you don’t remember from last Tuesday, this little project is an experiment of ours. Some time ago, Amanda Dean started this Crossword activity which was posted on Sunday mornings. It’s been awhile since we’ve done them, so we’re going to give them a whirl on Tuesdays instead, with Tuesday being the WoW player’s lazy Sunday. Considering today is patch day, you probably have plenty of time to do this thing.

Last week I asked for feedback on the crossword, and you all supplied a lot of helpful advice that we attempted to put into play. We’ll see how it turned out. The details on that are below the cut, along with the clues for this week’s puzzle.
