But most importantly I help people enjoy life, and that's the greatest gift of all.NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.comBlogger76125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-19899634622568542842010-07-26T15:27:00.000-07:002010-07-26T16:22:30.645-07:00Long Time ComingWell I've been pretty quiet on this thing for a while now but there has been a reason for it. For one I've been writing a weekly article for <a href="http://www.polygamerous.com/">polygamerous that you can find here.</a> I also have a great job that has kept me more that busy as well as doing some contract work on the side. To be honest though, those are not the real reasons why I haven't released any machinima in the last 6 months. While I often take pride in saying that I do everything from the editing to the writing to the voices, there was one voice that wasn't me. Dot in real life is my best friend and she helped me pitch jokes, refine ideas, and in general encourage me. Nobody Like You had always been something that we did together. However we had a falling out around Christmas and I didn't want to work on machinima because it brought up a lot of bad memories. The good news is that we're currently patching up our friendship and I have high hopes that things will turn out for the best.<br /><br />What does this mean for Nobody Like You? Well I've decided to end the series. The main reason being that Nobody Like You was always at its core about how much I enjoyed the Deathknight and the scourge. With the Lich King dying there isn't a good reason to keep it going(and he is everyone's favorite character). I am currently working on making the final 4 episodes on the series and they will be released one after another on a weekly schedule. I don't know when I'll have them done but I'll start posting pictures when I get closer to release.<br /><br />Does this mean I'm done making machinima? I don't know. I first started making machinima because I was doing nothing but grunt work. I now have a job that uses me in a creative format for comedy so I don't have that reason anymore. If it's still fun when this is over with then yes I'll keep making machinima. It's never been about how many views my videos get or how well I'm known. Machinima is something I do because I love a game and it's community and want to share something with them. To be honest the viewers and fans of the series are the main reason for me making the ending.<br /><br />It'll probably be a while before I do another post but before I go I just wanted to leave you all with something.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">"There is nothing more tragic than the lives of we comedians. We see the world as it really is with all it's pain, hatred, and cruelty. Yet even in the darkest hour, we do not hide from the world nor do we humor any delusions that it isn't there. We choose to look it straight in its face, and laugh."</span><br /><div style="text-align: right;">-Jack Riley<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">~Ninthbatter<br /></div></div>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-432496535973845972010-04-06T22:51:00.001-07:002010-04-07T07:47:18.259-07:00I know JackToday's post is going to be a little different for today is my birthday(which I happen to share with my triplet cousins). So today you're not going to see me as Ninth Batter the machinimast and blogger. You're going to see me as Jack. I hope I can make an accurate representation of myself and give you some insight as to what makes me, well me.<br /><br />In the short life that I have led I have seen love, joy, friendship, deception, cruelty, and a truly horrific act that still haunts me after 8 years. Most of my friends think I'm a brave person. I don't run away from my problems nor do I hide from the unknown. I have stood up to a man with a gun and have prevented a girl from having someone forced upon her, yet I have never considered myself brave. I act brave because people expect it from me when in reality I've always been afraid. People in my life seem to put me on a pedestal and have always expected great things. Yet I can never seem to see what everyone else sees in me.<br /><br />I see a lot of people my age that think that they haven't accomplished anything in their life but most of the time that's the farthest from the truth. People seem to have this thought in their mind that just because a lot of people don't know their name they aren't successful. Success isn't measured by how many people know you but rather by how much that people that do know you care about you. I envy the father that is teaching his child how to ride a bike or the mother that never misses a soccer game. I wish I had such a influential affect on someone. When it gets down to it odds are that no one you know is going to change the world. The most one can do is shape their own world.<br /><br />Life is hard for everyone whether you think it is or not. Humans naturally find conflict in their lives. If we are not fixing a conflict we are looking for one. If we can not find conflict we make conflict, it's just who we are. One of the greatest mistakes we can make is thinking that our lives are any worse that anyone else. Life is only as bad as your mind makes it. Try to not focus on the bad and instead fully enjoy all the good that is in your life. Life will always be a struggle, that's how it should me. It's that struggle that makes us stronger and teaches us who we are.<br /><br />So then who am I? I am: a joker, a friend, a hopeless romantic, a person who fakes bravery, and someone who is unsure. I don't ever claim that I know all there is in the world, I just try my best with what I have. I have had many fortunate things happen in my life, all of which I am grateful for. But my luck isn't because I'm Irish, it is simply because I believe I'm lucky. I know that is a strange concept but if you believe in yourself and believe that good things happen to you, you stop noticing the bad and see much more of the good in your life.<br /><br />So happy April 7th everyone. There is nothing anymore special about today than any other. Yet on this day I'd like to wish everyone well. Smile and enjoy yourself, I know I will. But then again, it is my birthday.<br /><br />~JackNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-2559934858381996452010-04-05T18:08:00.000-07:002010-04-05T19:21:58.306-07:00Good News, Bad NewsWell it's been a while since I posted. Sorry if I worried you blog followers(all of my mother and her bridge club) but there is no need to be alarmed. There has been a ton of stuff that has happened since I last posted but here's the quick version. Austin, Boston, Yankee's jersey, Milkshake to the face, commercial, stand-up, Sarlacc Enforcer, script, robot stole my office. And the craziest thing is all of that is true. Anyway time for the news.<br /><br />It's sort of a good news bad news type of thing. Bad news is that work and everything else has take up most of my time and I haven't had any time to work on Nobody Like You Ep5. And since my life has been so crazy I've decided to push up the schedule for Nobody Like You and I am sad to inform everyone that there will be only 2-3 more episodes.<br /><br />Now for the good news; I will be making a weekly audio show segment for the <a href="http://www.twistednether.net/">Twisted Nether Blogcast</a>. Later this week look for the two pilot episodes of "Two Guys and a Vent Channel" and "The Misadventures of Millhouse Manastorm". Everyone will be able to vote for the show that they wish to be continued so it should be fun.<br /><br />Also if you haven't checked it out yet have a look at the<a href="http://www.swtor.com/info/holonet/classes/sarlacc-enforcer"> Sarlacc Enforcer</a> you really should... and that's all I have to say about that.<br /><br />~NinthBatterNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-80493950292396623842010-03-05T10:30:00.000-08:002010-03-05T11:15:05.416-08:00Explicit WarningIf you haven't heard I'm going to be on <a href="http://www.slash2podcast.com/">Slash 2 podcast</a> tonight at 4 p.m. PST. This is another first for me because it will be my first explicit podcast. In honor of this momentous occasion I will now explain the difference between Profanity, Vulgarity, and Obscenity. Bet you didn't even know there was a difference. Be warned, I will use naughty language in this post.<br /><br />Profanity: To qualify as a profanity the word or phrase has to be blasphemy like God Damn It or Jesus Christ. It originally was used to describe anything that was older than the church. For example if a building was described as being profane then the build was built before the church.<br /><br />Vulgarity: A vulgarity is a harsh sounding word that replaces a proper word. Instead of using penis we'd use cock, or instead of breasts we'd use tits. It was originally used by upper class British society to describe the language of the commoners. Vulgarism litteraly means "mean folk talk".<br /><br />Obscenity: These are the fun words that 13-year-olds playing Halo on xbox live love to use. To be and obscenity the word needs to refer to a sexual act or one's progeny; like fuck, bitch, and bastard. The Catholics are to thank for this one. It was originally used to describe paintings with nudity so that the church could remove it from being publicly displayed.<br /><br />And now you know...

With over 11 million players and being played in over 200 different countries, it is truly amazing the diversity that this game has. Just on a personal note I have friends in-game from England, France, Canada, Ireland, Switzerland, Sweden, Finland, Australia, Romania, Denmark, Jamaica, and New Jersey. I can't help but think that this truly describes the internet ideal. That is, friends being able to keep in constant contact despite being separated by mountains, rivers, oceans, and Detroit. Actually that is something I'd like to briefly talk about. I know a lot of people talk about their "in-game friends" and I don't see them as that, I simply see them as friends. Why should it matter how we communicate? I mean when it gets down to it there are very few friends that stay with us our whole lives but that doesn't make the others any less important.<br /><br />So here's to you World of Warcraft! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to meet some truly extraordinary people whom I would have probably never met otherwise. And here's to all my friends, World of Warcraft related or otherwise.<br /><br />~NinthBatterNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-42228787116553796802010-02-07T19:05:00.000-08:002010-02-08T00:30:49.214-08:00Love Advice From the Scourge: Boner JamOnce again *sigh* I'm pleased to bring you<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"> Love Advice from the Scourge</span>. On this weeks panel we have Anub'arak, Kel'Thuzad, The Lich King, and Nobody(because he's the only sane one). Here's today's questions from you the readers.<br /><br />Bonerjam asks:"I'm currently single and have never really been in a serious relationship. I'd like to change that. Do you have any advice?"<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153); font-weight: bold;">Anub'arak: I'd start with changing your gamer tag to something other than "Boner Jam".... just saying...</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255); font-weight: bold;">Lich King: Women are not worth it. Sure it seems fun at first but then you kill an entire city to stop the spread of evil and she says "you went too far."</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;">Kel'Thuzad: I completely agree my king. Maybe we could go out some time and do... you know... uh guy stuff.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Nobody: Well if you're the kind of guy that goes out on blind dates a lot, then make it clear that's what you're looking for sometime during the date. Another suggestion to consider is forming a friendship with the person first. That way you can build common interests and the longest lasting relationships are often those of people with many common interests.</span><br /><br />MiniDK asks: "Any suggestion as to what I should get my girlfriend for Valentine's Day?"<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153); font-weight: bold;">Anub'arak: Severed arm, burnt corpse, still-beating heart of your enemy... you know the classics.</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 204, 255);">Lich King: I can tell you from experience that the still-beating heart of your enemy isn't for most girls.</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;">Kel'Thuzad: Excellent answer my king. So about us going out...</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Nobody: What I think these guys are trying to say is the classics are always nice. Chocolates, flowers, and stuffed animals are always good. But if you really want to go the distance this year then what you want to do is make her feel special. I'm not talking about dropping $300 on jewelry, I'm saying showing her that you know her. If she likes music then write her a song or sing her a song that she likes. If she likes books then write her a short story. Let's say you're void of creativity, then plan a romantic afternoon and come to her work to steal her away. A great idea is to recreate your first date, trust me she'll love it. As for you girls thinking about what to get your guy, sex... Get them sex.</span><br /><br />If you have any questions you'd like answered send them in! We always like getting e-mail ninthbatter@hotmail.com plus I'm planing of having a contest soon, for more information please visit http://www.polygamerous.com/ and download the show and comment.

I'm tell you all this because I haven't gotten any work done on NBLY Ep5 or the Valentines day special. So to make you all happy I'm gonna give you a brief preview of Ep5.<br /><br />Ep5 will pick up with Nobody basically getting a tour of how the Northrend Scourge work. Oh yeah I know none of you care about the plot because I have a comedy show. The next episode will be a 80's reference video and I hope you guys enjoy it. Especial because there is only another 3 to 4 episodes left of the show. Yeah I know but don't worry, when I go there will be someone to replace me and wowcrendor will be there for a while to come. Plus it'll take several months for me to finish all the episodes so fear not.<br /><br />~NinthBatterNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-9011188901510252132010-02-01T14:24:00.000-08:002010-02-01T17:14:19.161-08:00Life<span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">I went out to go get breakfast the other morning had an interesting talk with a guy who just moved to LA. He </span></span><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">said he just got here Thursday and he's very confident that people will see his natural talent. He plans to have a constant job with acting. I told him about my job </span></span><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">and then he asked me if i had any "tips". I opened the paper is was reading to the classifieds and pointed at the janitorial job at the Warner Brothers lot. </span></span><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">He got really offend and I said "Man, I came to LA after already having a job, unless you have one hell of a resume nobody is gonna hire you." This actually a fairly common phenomena here in LA. People move here thinking that because they're young and talented everything is going to go their way. On average it takes most people 12 years (that's right) before they reach a level that they would consider themselves successful. The problem is we have many young people in the lime light. These people are the exceptions to the rule. Take me for example, I'm 23 and I have a job writing for a late night talk show. I got where I am because I'm a hard working kiss ass that has a lot of talent and is one of the luckiest bastards in the world.<br /><br /></span></span><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">Just as a bit of advice for people trying to make it in the world. Have a goal for your life, not a dream. Dreams change, goals shouldn't.</span></span><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content"> For example </span></span><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">my dream is to be one of the best writers for comedy, but my goal is to do well enough at my current job so that I can be in a position to negotiate a raise at my first employ review. Let's face it, the world is a mean tough place that will beat you into a corner and keep you there. Appreciate the things in life that make you happy whether it is friends, family, or the Raiders losing (the last one might just be me).<br /><br />~<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">NinthBatter</span><br /></span></span>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-64781242046376153792010-01-25T16:10:00.001-08:002010-01-25T18:12:45.093-08:00Nobody Wants Your Advice: Till Death...Time once again for Nobody Wants Your Advice.

Yep you heard right, love advice from a giant undead beetle... it was part of his sign-on bonus.<br /><br />Marty writes in:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">"I've been seeing this girl for about a month now and we really seem to click. I get her flowers on a regular basis and we see each other about four times a week. I'd like to take the relationship to the sexual level, any advice as to what I should do?"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">Anub'arak: Well there's your problem right there, the flowers. While flowers are good for flirting and little reminders they don't show any real commitment. The female needs to see that you are serious about mating. My recommendation is to bring her a dead mammoth or rhino. You say the female likes you so then the female isn't going to want to kill you and lay her eggs in you. What you need to do is get the female</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);"></span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);"> a carcass to lay the eggs in. This will show commitment and that you can provide for the female.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Nobody: Yeah... just make her dinner with some wine. Make sure the lighting is low and be confident. From my experience a girl that likes flowers also likes to be taken. Show that you're comfortable with her and that you want her, if you two are clicking then you should know her signals...unless she's a giant spider, then yeah... go with the dead animal.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153); font-weight: bold;">Anub'arak: Giant spiders need love too...</span><br /><br />~NinthBatterNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-72554297474714364862010-01-20T17:36:00.000-08:002010-01-20T17:40:36.720-08:00Lord Marrowgar is a nice guy....<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/9/96/Lord_Marrowgar.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 361px; height: 264px;" src="http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/9/96/Lord_Marrowgar.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Lord Marrowgar is the gate keeper to Icecrown Citadel. Pieced together by the </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Lich King</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> from the bones of a thousand vanquished adventurers, he is the guardian of the </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Frozen Throne</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> within </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">the spire</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">, and wields the power of the throne itself. And let me just say, he's got a bone to pick with you! You see what I did there with the bone...cause he's a giant bone... Fine don't laugh! Marrowgar would have laughed at that joke. He always laughs at my jokes. Unlike you readers Marrowgar is a nice caring individual who's only dream was to some day learn the flamenco guitar. And all you readers do is walk into his home and try to kill him! Who do you think you are? I mean the nerve of some people.<br /><br /><br />As for the fight Marrowgar is pretty easy as long as you raid has some raiding under their belts. Have the tanks stack up in front of him so that they can absorb Sabre Lash(</span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Splits 200% of normal melee damage to an enemy and its nearest ally) and the rest of the raid spread out so that: A)your entire raid doesn't get hit all at once by bone storm, and B)your tanks don't get hit with coldflame because they'll be taking a lot of damage as it is. He'll bone spike a party member so it's good to have ranged kill the spike. Like I mentioned earlier, Coldflame is a line of blue fire that spreads out from the boss. Once your raid can successfully avoid the Coldflame the fight becomes much easier. Finally, the boss will go into a bone storm during which he spins around the room doing a whirlwind and coldflames being cast in 4 directions. After he is done the tanks will reposition the boss and then rinse and repeat. He does have a 10 min enrage timer but if you are bringing appropriately (not blues or greens) players you shouldn't need to worry.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">~NinthBatter</span>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-46970271142737016482010-01-18T12:24:00.001-08:002010-01-18T15:09:01.106-08:00Nobody Wants Your Advice: MLK Day<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_JUc5Q0LJaQQ/S1TR24q39EI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/2sti95vaLh0/s1600-h/dreamihave.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 235px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_JUc5Q0LJaQQ/S1TR24q39EI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/2sti95vaLh0/s320/dreamihave.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428194191743644738" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Well here it is, the very first posting of <span style="font-style: italic;">Nobody Wants Your Advice</span>. Given that today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day I think it is appropriate to reflect on where we've come and where we're going. While it is true that most races of Azeroth have achieved a sense of equality there are several that are still being oppressed. The Murlocs, the Gnomes, the Kobolds, and yes even the mighty Undead. This year alone hundreds of thousands of undead were slain for no other reason than they were zombies. One day I hope for the undead to be treated as equal, to be able to eat at the same restaurants as the living; this is my dream. I have a dream that undead will be able to attend the same schools, to ride the same mounts, to have the same jobs. I have a dream that we will not judge one by the decomposition of their flesh or color of their skin or sexual preference or whether or not they enjoy to eat brains!<br /><br />Here's your questions,<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Phorzzik asks:<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span></span><span style="font-style: italic;">Dear Lich King,<br /><br />First of all let me just say that I'm a big fan of your singing, your version of Living on a Prayer was awesome!

I will be having regular posts about warcraft or general nerdgasims, you know whatever tickles my fancy or yours for that matter. Yes you can send me an e-mail at ninthbatter@hotmail.com and I'll post about whatever you ask.<br /><br />Also every Monday I'll be posting a regular column called "Nobody Wants Your Advice" in which Nobody, the Lich King, or any other member of Nobody Like You will answer any and all questions you have. Just send them to ninthbatter@hotmail.com.<br /><br />Now, I have to go back to work on Nobody Like You. And I worked on it until pretty late last night. But I want to say one thing to my followers and fans. I want you to listen to me. I'm going to say this again: <b>I did not have sexual relations with that woman</b>, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time; never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people.

In all seriousness, thank you for all of your guys' support and all comments and subscriptions. It's always nice knowing that people enjoy your work.<br /><br />I'm not sure if I mentioned it but I start my new job Jan 18 and I'm sure that will be taking up a lot of my time so I'm trying to get as much machinima done as I can.<br /><br />Happy New Year...unless you're on the Chinese calendar, then Happy New Year on Feb 14.<br /><br />~NinthBatterNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-78481785848727197792010-01-05T17:42:00.000-08:002010-01-06T15:53:56.540-08:00I've had my Cherry Popped...so to say...The other night I was on my very first podcast EVER!

Now I'm not Jewish but I had the same friend review the script so I'm hoping that I don't go to hell over this whole thing. Anyway the conversation I had was that there wasn't any Hanukkah Machinima out there. Crazy I know! And yes I understand this is a little late for Hanukkah<br /><br />Anyway I promised someone very special to me that I'd try to stay way from the computer but I figured I should get this out before Christmas and with the bad weather it was a constructive use of my time... Wow I just said making a 4 min video about Hanukkah using world of warcraft was constructive. I need my new job to start soon....<br /><br />MP3 of the song<br /><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/179150255/51e670e8/Lich_King_Hanukka_song.html">http://www.4shared.com/file/179150255/51e670e8/Lich_King_Hanukka_song.html</a><br /><br />~NinthBatterNinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-24009248883280251242009-10-27T09:25:00.000-07:002009-10-27T14:41:22.231-07:00Nobody Like You: Halloween<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/chs9NUKfhHI&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/chs9NUKfhHI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />That's right the new instalment of Nobody Like You is here!

So as many of you(all 12 of you) probably figured out I've been away for a while. To be honest I wrote a script for EP4 and it wasn't working and I just needed a break. Having some time I tried to figure out where I wanted to go with the show and what the point of the show should be. I have a solid plan now and I'm going to start recording lines for the new script tonight.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>But now for the real news.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>When I took a break it was from everything wow related, including the wow insider podcast which I had been the most unofficial part of the show. Aparently for the last few weeks someone has been pretending to be me in the chat channel. Yeah someone felt that they needed to pretend to be a machinimast just so they could have a little bit of power with the show. Fucked up I know, and surprisingly not the first time someone has pretended to be me. So here's what I have to say to that person.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Dude what the fuck? The reason I have mod rights is because I made not only the WoW Insider Song machinima I also did Troller's Delight and have been a constant voice in the chat channel. All you did was pretend to be someone else. And the reason I'm more pissed than I normally would be is because you've been giving false information about me. My birthday is in April, which you almost got called out on in the show cause cause Turpster can see what my birthday is in skype. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I'm not famous, or big, or even that great of a machinimast. I'm a fan of the community, that's it. I love that Brigwyn not only writes a blog and records a podcast (or 3) each week but also gets thousands of dollars for charity by uniting some community celebrities. Turpster is hands down one of the cleverest people I've ever met and would help out anyone that asked it. Boubouille reports every major wow news no more than a couple hours after it happens. Mike Shramm is one of the key bloggers of the game and has helped many podcasts and bloggers get their start. Mike Gray finds and posts a new Machinima everyday on wow.com and gives them all great and accurate reviews, he understands that people make the films cause they love the game. And it was recently announced that Patrick Beja was Superman!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>So that's it I'm back and I'm here to stay. I had forgotten why I loved this game and I remember now.

So I guess I better make this post super extra special huh? Well I come to you with a issue that have been very close to the Nobody Like You cast and crew.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong>WoW to Blizzard</strong> is a organization committed to bringing light to a epidemic that is facing the Warcraft community as a whole, nerfing. Every patch day 11 million players are nerfed for no reason other than they were too strong in pvp and were dominating one class in particular. <strong>WoW to Blizzard</strong> hopes that through Internet viral adds, T-shirt sells, and a casual passing comment on Oprah their message will be received by Blizzard and the nerfing will stop. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>If you wish to support the WoW to Blizzard just go to you local wow forums and start a thread complaining about how your class is the only one that ever gets nerfed. Thank you for your time.</div><div> </div><div>Also, here's the link to download the Lich King's "Unliving on a Prayer" from Nobody Like You EP3 <a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/122771012/f6a879a7/unliving_on_a_prayer.html">http://www.4shared.com/file/122771012/f6a879a7/unliving_on_a_prayer.html</a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>~NinthBatter</div>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-3621073147360544132009-07-21T10:16:00.000-07:002009-07-21T19:02:46.381-07:00I could dig this...<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_JUc5Q0LJaQQ/SmYAsSbP5rI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/GBfqpqx4hk0/s1600-h/newrace.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360973167291524786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 235px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_JUc5Q0LJaQQ/SmYAsSbP5rI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/GBfqpqx4hk0/s320/newrace.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>So as many of you know, the new suspected races are the worgen and the goblins. This has been brought about because the data miners have found two new sets of very detailed Halloween masks. Now at first I was like, well goblins make sense and a werewolf mask would make sense too. But a female worgen mask? We've never seen a female worgen ingame, and she has make-up on. Now let's get into some of the lore here, aka would it make sense.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><strong>Goblins</strong></div><br /><br /><div>This is extremely believable for a new race for the horde. They already favor the horde, and they're the primary cross continent travel for the horde. One of the trade princess could have got pissed at the alliance and sides solely with the horde.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><strong>Worgen</strong></div><br /><br /><div>Well there's two options here for what we could see. The people of Gilneas could have been changed into worgen. They use to be part of the alliance and from what I understand people can be turned into worgen. The second option is the worgen that were under the influence of Archmage Arugal are free to do whatever they want. From what I've read the worgen homeworld is in a all out war between the worgen and the Lords of the Emerald Flame. As far as I know the only emerald fire is from fel magic, so I'm thinking the Burning Legion. Also they have a previous relationship with humans and night elves so them siding with the alliance is a lot more likely than the horde.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>~NinthBatter</div><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-5842077480552041272009-07-12T21:27:00.000-07:002009-07-13T22:16:55.655-07:00Nobody Like You EP3<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TFNTKXRptHM&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TFNTKXRptHM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />First of all let me just say that I'm sorry about the lack of posts last week but as you can see I was up to something. I really wanted to get episode 3 of Nobody Like You done so I crammed all my free time to get it done. Although looking back at the project, I had to cut 2mins of the episode cause the time was running too long so that could have probably saved me some time.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Episode 3 picks up right after Episode 2 and that's all I can say without it being a huge spoiler. I can say that the 4th wall will been broken in this episode... just like every other one. Oh and to those that I parodied, it was meant as a joke not an attack. Also I'm sorry for how long it took to make this episode. The original plan was for it to be released the week after episode 2 but Turpster approached me to do a machinima for him. And let's face it, Turpster is one dreamy Brit.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video and there will, with out a question, be an episode 4. But with my job schedule I wouldn't expect it to be for a couple of months. Oh and please feel free to drop me a line at <a href="mailto:ninthbatter@hotmail.com">ninthbatter@hotmail.com</a> or <a href="http://twitter.com/NinthBatter">http://twitter.com/NinthBatter</a> and of course my youtube channel <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/NinthBatter">http://www.youtube.com/user/NinthBatter</a>. <p></p><p><strong>edit: problem with the video, didn't upload the last 1/4 of the video, working on it.</strong></p><p><strong>edit 11:16 pm 7-13: reduced the video quality and re-uploaded it to youtube. should work fine now.</strong></p><p><br /><br />~NinthBatter </p>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-299577084982495920.post-9398580139212194012009-07-01T18:23:00.000-07:002009-07-01T18:56:07.537-07:00I'm Not Bias...<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JUc5Q0LJaQQ/SkwTVZGajOI/AAAAAAAAAGI/N5WFOvLq3cM/s1600-h/goodidea.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353675315272649954" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 235px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JUc5Q0LJaQQ/SkwTVZGajOI/AAAAAAAAAGI/N5WFOvLq3cM/s320/goodidea.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>So with me being back in Montana for the week and my bum foot (damn cactus), I've had some time to work on Nobody Like You and I got some time on the PTR today. I'll warn you now that whatever you read after this will be a spoiler on the new children's week orphans.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><strong><em><span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;">Spoiler</span></em></strong></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;color:#999999;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:100%;color:#330033;">First off, when you talk to the Orphan Matron she will give you the choice of Oracle / Frenzyheart(or gremlins and oohmpa-pa's). After you have chosen there is no going back, so make sure you pick the one you want right off the bat. I've done both, but I favor the Oracles so they're the one I'm gonna talk about.</span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#330033;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#330033;">You're little orphan Oracle is named Roo. And like all Oracles, he has the best flavor text ever! For example: </span></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>"Why do the puppy-people hatchlings say we should pity Lafoo? Lafoo talk a lot, but he still our friend."</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><span style="color:#330033;">Like all the orphans you take this little bundle of teeth and smiles to various locations so he can see things and meet important people. But here's the best part, you know at the end of all these quests the orphan is always like "I wish I could keep traveling with you." Well this little guy comes through. He'll write you a letter saying he wants you to take him on journeys whenever you want, and attached to the letter is the curious oracle hatchling. So you really can take him with you!</span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#330033;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#330033;">~Ninth Batter</span></div><br /><blockquote></blockquote>NinthBatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15664636889471452701noreply@blogger.com0
