Deathwing was killed by us a little over a month ago, and the dust after the race has settled down. The whole guild has been keeping a low profile after the progress, and with everything that had been going on around t13 race, some people are getting worried about what's going on in Paragon.

As a consequence of what happened with LFR, the accounts that looted bosses from multiple runs have been suspended until the next reset. As a direct result, we'll be joining the 25-man race a week later.
We will not attempt to gather a 25-man raid for the week. The several accounts that did not partake in anything illicit are clear, so for this week we are forming a 10-man group with help from ex-members and friends. We will go back to doing 25-man as soon as we can, i.e. at the start of the next reset.

And here we go again.... a new patch, a new start, a new race!

I'm going to be posting a series of updates once the race gets underway (starting today on the American servers!) but I wanted to start us off on the official "boring" day with a poll about what you're looking forward to. And for those of you grumps out there who aren't looking forward to anything, you can vote that way too!

Our academic friends Ladan and Zeotrix aka Sebastian Lundmark haven't been idling this fall. Both of them have published some very interesting content from raider's perspective.

First of all Zeotrix has finished his thesis which takes a closer look on how gaming together affects us. Last winter and fall people from this site (among with some other people) were asked to particiapte in the study twice, and the results are here. Zeotrix describes his work:
