May saw a huge influx of players to Ulduar, the end of the revamped Noblegarden holiday, Children's Week, a paladin blogger named Ferarro, BlizzCon ticket queues (which, while packed to the scuppers, were nowhere near the nightmare they'd been in 2008 (http://www.wow.com/2008/08/13/how-blizzard-mishandled-the-blizzcon-ticket-situation/)), and the start of news concerning patch 3.2 (http://www.wow.com/guide-to-patch-3-2/) and new druid forms (http://www.wow.com/gallery/druid-forms/) (!).
Disappointment with the patch 3.1 game world (http://www.wow.com/2009/05/07/disappointment-with-the-patch-3-1-game-world/): A lot of our staffers pointed to Alex (http://www.wow.com/bloggers/alex-ziebart)'s article as a good pinpoint on why patch 3.1 didn't feel like it was really moving the expansion forward.
Children's Week ruins battlegrounds (http://www.wow.com/2009/05/02/childrens-week-ruins-battlegrounds/): I hated School of Hard Knocks (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1786) because I thought it was a poorly-designed achievement spurring irresponsible play. Zach (http://www.wow.com/bloggers/zach-yonzon) hated it because it's also guaranteed to wreck battlegrounds for the length of the holiday.
Noblegarden: Sexy or Sexist? (http://www.wow.com/2009/05/01/noblegarden-sexy-or-sexist/): Women are still vastly outnumbered by men in the MMO market, and Robin (http://www.wow.com/bloggers/robin-torres) wonders whether this achievement (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=2422) going live was the right call.Continue reading The best of WoW.com: May 2009 (http://www.wow.com/2009/12/24/the-best-of-wow-com-may-2009/)
