Who is the strongest?

I was curious on how high a level elite people have managed to solo. I have discovered I can fight a lvl 69 giant elite in netherstorm by myself. I was curious if anyone has a monster they can beat for their claim to fame.
Lvl 70 warrior- Dracondros defeats Firkrag (something or other to this effect)

Clicking the above link will take you to the topic. Long story short, Mag's going to be a massive loot pinata with some decent gold, epic gems, badges and a new 20-slot bag. He's Onyxia 2.0. I really think we should go guild-pug this guy the moment he respawns in 2.4. Actually sounds really really fun and beneficial to the entire guild :)
So I tanked a trash run of BT last night for hearts...It was fun and I discovered the place on pudo (hadn't actually ever been there) but again, as soon as the aoe saw me consecrate they started aoeing. how do these silly clothies live with regular tanks?
I know - I've been MIA

I'm sure atleast one of you has wondered where I ran off too. At the same time I'm sure the men have enjoyed being able to flirt shamelessly with my women, since I haven't been around to keep a watchful eye over my lovely ladies.
Either way! I do have a reason! Some people would call it an eviction notice, I more would call it my landlord being an asshole. I had til February 14th to find a new place to live(we moved out on the 15th, the day we found a place.) Not that we were slackers, but apparently this area just doesn't have much too offer(believe me, I'm NOT surprised.)
Having spent all of last friday moving, and all of last Saturday unable to move, we came to the realization that there was no signal to be found! Nothing to leech for miles! Which pretty much meant we were stuck offline til friday.
Friday came, and went. Still no net to call our own(DAMN YOU VERIZON!!!)
I did however find a temporary crappy net to leech. It probably won't last long, but I figured I'd update you guys.
Btw, Verizon says they changed their minds and are going to email us on Wednesday to let us know when they're gonna come out. But I heard tale of a long ranty phonecall in the near future, so maybe sooner.

Leading a Raid
Epatrick — Fri, 02/22/2008 - 17:41
As you all (those reading this) know, I have a very large dislike for actually talking on vent. Last night we wiped in the last %s (one time at a painful 1%) on Zul'Jin after some rather odd behavior with threat on omen (jas getting aggro after being dead for half the final phase was very very weird).
My question : can a raid leader "lead" while not using their mic? I would like to believe so, but last night that confidence was rocked when nuit stepped out and i was left in de facto charge of Lava Crab for the last two bosses. My instructions and warnings were unheeded or lost, and small catfights broke out after the second wipe. Would this have been avoided if I had actually used my microphone and steered things in a more positive/controlled direction? I don't know. I find it very hard to use my push to talk button while actively using both hands to tank, and I've never ever ever been a fan of leaving my mic open or on sound activate, as somehow or other you'd all get blasted with very un-epatricklike venting of swear words.
My ideal raid is one in which vent is quiet, controlled, and only used for actual necessary commands (the cores on vashj, the tank positions for RoS) ( I don't view bloodboils as being vent necessary, because honestly, if you can't count to three and know which group you're in, fail)
Vent to me has become a cluttered mess of jumbled unfocused stories, random chatter and a smattering of necessary commands/informative suggestions. the cleanest kill I've ever seen was weds teron, where vent was actually SILENT. that's right, nobody talked, we all focused and 24 man'd a BT raid boss. If vent and our raid attitude were like that every night, I feel like we'd be a lot more progressed, but where does the line between excelling at this game by being focused and having fun shooting the shit with your e-friends on vent get drawn? Can you do both? no idea.
