Since some folks seem to be doing this sort of broadcasting of
Wrath-full intentions, than I shall do the same.

According to me: Being in a top 10 raiding guild is sweet.
Hanging with friends is sweet, however, WoW itself is in direct
conflict with many RL things due to one specific goal - progress. The
problem, however is that progress is a crucial part of the game
itself. If there were no progress, it would only be farming, however
when the game is all progress, it becomes a time/energy commitment
that some people cannot handle. I am one of these people.

To solve this dilemma, WotLK provides a nice venue to keep its
casual player-base happy. The 10-man versions of all raid instances
will be an excellent way to continue to enjoy the game without the
pressure of the 25-man content.

To this end, I will be working on an independent 10-man raid
group within Downfall. After a month or two of leveling and getting
some decent Blues and 80's together, we will begin to raid 1-2 nights per week. The
people who do this with me will not be a part of 25 man content - as
we will intentionally raid on nights that the 25 man raid(s) run. The
reason for this is so that we will not take any over-geared raiders
to make things too easy for our paced progress, and they will not be
able to take any of our raiders and give them a taste of the 25-man
nectar.

Raids will last in each instance until it is mastered and most people in the raid have upgraded most of the items needed, then we will move onto another raid instance, perhaps returning to the previous to farm badges or something if time permits in the 1-2 day per week raiding schedule.
