I think I’m getting carpal tunnel

Filed Under: Hunters and Pets, Random Stuff | Tags: ,

So the word about the Pet-o-holics Namerator is out thanks to WoW Insider and Mania’s Arcania, which spread to many many other sites. Now, I was expecting some interest in it..but not this much interest! Over 4000 views in one day AND there were over 200 name submissions waiting for me in my mail box! One person even submitted names 38 times! Does everyone have a hunter or something?

However, I wanted to say a big thanks to the hunter community for your love and support of this project. My wrists may be hurting a little from entering all those names (and I’m not even half done) but it really makes me feel good to see that I’m not the only one obsessed with pet names. Some of them are very imaginative and funny. I now have it in my head that I’m going to tame the ugliest scariest beast and name him Sparkles or SimpleSensations, just so I can giggle about it every time I log in. Keep the names rolling in and thank you all again!

An aside: One day people will remember that it’s PetOholics, not PetAholics, and that I am a female, not a male. >.>

The moment hunters have been waiting for…

Filed Under: Hunters and Pets, Random Stuff | Tags: , ,

You have all waited very patiently for this, I know you have. So before everyone explodes from being pent-up, I proudly give you…drum roll please…

The Pet-o-licious Namerator!

You may be wondering why only 2 names appear at a time when PANDA has 10 at once. The reason? I have discovered that I’m good at thinking of serious pet names…not so good at silly ones. As a result, the silly categories for every pet name are sorely needing to be filled. Some of them only have 2 names listed in those categories. So I turn to you, my readers, once again to help me by sending in any silly pet names you can think of. Use the form below the Namerator to send them in to me. Remember that pet names can fall under more than one category so I’ve made the form able for you to choose multiple categories if it is appropriate. Once the categories have more names, I will make it so that more names appear when you press the Generate button.

I would also like to credit Fizzwidget, one of my favourite mod authors, for giving me the inspiration behind the name. It may not be as witty or inventive as some of his, but I tried. :)

Please feel free to make any comments or suggestions about the Pet-o-licious Namerator on this post. I always welcome everyone’s feedback. :)

Quick notes

Filed Under: Random Stuff | Tags: ,

…before I fall sleep at the computer (I swear I was wide awake when I got here).

  1. I decided to try out the Twitter thing for my random WoW thoughts and to let everyone know I’m still breathing. It’s located at the bottom of the left menu. We’ll see how long it lasts :)
  2. 140 characters is NOT enough for me to put down my thoughts. Are you listening, Twitter?
  3. If you’ve been following The Troll Hunter, you should know that he is very much alive, just hasn’t gotten around to updating his blog. I know because A) I’ve been playing with him and B) I helped him move his blog and even ported his theme over for him. Maybe if I tell everyone this, it will light a fire under his behind and he’ll get posting.
  4. Big news coming very soon. May or may not include my progress on the pet name generator *shifty eyes*
  5. I get really silly when I’m tired. Like right now…I’m going to admit to talking out loud to my hunters’ pets as I play, doing stuff like promising them their favorite food if they do a good job. Am I the only one?

That is all. Now back to your regular scheduled programming. *plays muzak in the background*
