Welcome to the latest edition of Community Watch here on Curse. We keep our finger on the pulse of the WoW and Curse communities so you don't have to -- bringing you all the latest and greatest in community news, interesting forum threads and great blog content.
Curse Blogs
We'll kick things off with the Curse Blogs section -- as usual -- to highlight some of the interesting developments over the past week or so.
Flisher changes gears -- going from his awesome Curse Case Mod to a new Cloning Guide for Tabula Rasa. Be sure to check it out if you're interested in the game.
Think you'll never change? Check out this inspirational Chinese parable -- courtesy of meteo.
Tuller gives us the lowdown on his AddOns in 2.3 and beyond -- giving not only an update on his currently released offerings, but also his upcoming AddOn, Combuctor.
Brandwynn joins in on the blogging fun with o good grief -- introducing herself and her character background.
Indelible ponders what's going on with AMD's new processor, Phenom, and whether it's a successor to the throne or not.
After that, Indelible decided to take a look back at some of his favorite gaming moments. Do you remember when... well... do you?!
Matticus fills us in on a recent 12 hour raid session in Zul'Aman that resulted in Matticus picking up a new robe -- not to mention a few new bruises!
If you want to join in on the blogging fun then head over and create a blog to get started -- it's simple, fast and who knows -- you might just write something that appears on Community Watch!
World of Raids
World of Raids is one of the premiere sources for World of Warcraft news and raid discussions. It's no surprise then that they have a great Zul'Aman Tactics Guide going on the forums.
In other news, more losers are trying to scam players with a fake Wrath of the Lich King beta invite, players weigh in on Armor Penetration vs. Haste Rating and Alexdaman questions whether Blizzard will revamp Winterveil like Hallow's End.
WoW Insider
WoWInsider has a great article about Child's Play auction raising $300, a great new Know Your Lore that covers the history of Gul'dan and a super cool alternate use for Guild Banks -- checkers!
Elitist Jerks Forums
Elsewhere, you can find some great discussion over on the Elitist Jerks forums -- as usual, of course. Dollar looks into the art of making gold in World of Warcraft; 2.3's miss rate vs. boss mobs, surviving the holidays, non-BC version and a fishy experiment put on by Agren to see if he could disprove the theory that a lockboxes loot is generated upon opening it; the results may surprise you -- it's definitely worth checking out.
Finally, a video to cap off this edition -- L70ETC staring in "Rejection Role."
var FO_39 = { movie:"http://dev.curse-gaming.com/static/flash/flvplayer.swf", width:"500", height:"350", majorversion:"7", build:"0", bgcolor:"#FFFFFF", allowfullscreen:"true", flashvars:"file=http://videos.cursebeta.com/stream2/premium/869.flv&autostart=true" }; $("#flvplayer_39").click(function(event) { UFO.create(FO_39, "flvplayer_39"); $(this).unbind('click'); });

Comments
Thanks for catching that -- fixed it. :)
Yet another great update from Kody, aside from your hyperlink typo;
"Indelible ponders what's going on with AMD's new processor, Phenom, and whether it's a http://blogs.curse.com/90/details/479/ successor to the throne] or not."
As far as the Winter's Veil revamp goes, we know that they are adding some new gifts (patterns etc.) so there's a chance that we may see some new quests.
