Before heading back into the fray, I would first like to apologize for the long period between posts. As I stated in my last update, Mardi Gras was upon me and, as Illidan told me so many years ago, I was NOT prepared. But, the old batteries are recharged, and I have even caught up on a little WoW. Time to get back to the challenge.
This is a tough one for me, because I honestly don’t have anything in-game I am that attached to. My characters? Heck yeah, I even have some toons on servers I haven’t signed into in years that I just couldn’t bring myself to delete. But as for their inventories, I just don’t have any attachments like that. I have lots of pets on lots of toons, but I couldn’t pick one as my favorite. Honestly, I seldom remember to summon the little guys. Except Li’l Rag. I summon him all the time, but that is just for cooking.
Mounts? If I had to pick one it would be the Green Proto-drake from the Oracle Egg, but I have that on one of my semi-retired alliance characters, so I never even really see that. I am not attached enough to log in just to fly around on him.
The only thing I can even feel like I come close to considering a favorite in-game “item” would be the title. Halloween has always been my favorite time of year, and I have endeavored to earn that title on every toon I have that is eligible. I do have a few that are missing it, but most of my “Main” characters have that, and I consider it my default title.
Come to think of it, I have never gotten the Horseman’s Helm. THAT would definitely be my favorite item ever, provided it dropped for one of my plate wearers. Knowing my luck, I will get it on my druid or rogue this year. I have coveted that for many, many years, and have never won the roll the few times I have seen it drop. I know they changed the mechanics so that you get a loot bag with a chance at finding it in your inventory, but I remember seeing it pop three times in the loot screen. Two of those times, I was on my rogue, and passed on it (nothing like winning something you can never equip,) and the third was on my warrior, and I am pretty sure my need roll came up negative.
So I cheated a little and talked about a non-item and an item I don’t have, but I guess I am still a little mentally taxed from last week’s grueling schedule. But it is good to be back, and I look forward to catching up on my end of the challenge, and seeing where everyone else is.
Happy Gaming!

P.S. I may post out-of-order the next day or so. The next challenge should be a picture of my desk/computer set up, but I just ordered a new camera and would like to wait to use that for those photos. So if you find yourself wondering where Day 6 went, don’t worry, I didn’t lose it, or have too many drinks and forget my chronological order or anything like that.
Thanks for the heads-up! After Mardi Gras I guess we’d been a bit worried if Day 6 suddenly disappeared
I got the sword from the Horseman on two characters who can use it – no one got the helmet though.. but by the time I got the sword it wasn’t useful to me – and it’s nowhere near as cool as the helmet!
Admittedly I still covet the horse though. I love mounts and I really want the headless horseman’s mount. My Warlock did the boss every single day to no avail, but don’t you think it dropped twice.. TWICE! for an alt? Really.. what is she to do with two of them.. Sometimes I really wish you could just send such things between characters *sighs*
Saga, really wanted the HH mount on the Rogue, but never have gotten it to drop for him, but the first time I took my Warrior in to do the event (hoping for the helm, of course,) the mount dropped. I was excited, but the magic has kinda worn off for me. Maybe if I would break down and get epic flying on my warrior, but I just can’t be bothered to do it.
But sheesh, really? Twice on the same alt?
