Two big wins this week for <Archon> in ICC
The raid leaders made the command decision to extend our lockout in ICC for another week, and the extra time paid off in spades with our first kills on both the Blood Queen

and Professor Putricide!

For those keeping track at home, this means only two more bosses stand between us and Arthas himself! Congratulations and Thank You to everybody who has put forth the time and effort to get us to where we are today. I'm very excited by our success and can not wait to post the screenshot of our first Lich King kill!
!@##!$%@##$^ Scumbag hackers!
After spending several hours last night cleaning up the mess our Russian hacker made of our forums, I awoke this morning to discover that the exploit had now spread to other files on the site. So now I get to spend even more time hardening things against attack. Like I don't already have enough to do...
Hey, scumbag! Knock this crap off and get a real life, will ya?
Forums Repaired
This afternoon, we were apparently the victims of an exploit that embedded an iframe containing malicious code into all the forum javascript code. I've just finished going through and eliminating it, so the forums are back online. If you visited this afternoon using IE, however, I strongly suggest running a scan of your PC to make sure you haven't picked up anything. I'm not sure what the payload was, but I'm quite certain it wasn't intended to be helpful.
Thanks very much to those that brought the problem to my attention. If any of you see anything unusual in the future, please feel free to contact me by whatever means necessary so I can get things cleaned up.
Blood Council Defeated!

After Monday night's exceptional performance, we decided to extend this week's raid ID in the hopes of making some additional progress. That gamble paid off with the our first victory over the Blood Council!
Congratulations to the entire raid team on the kill. We'll be continuing on to Blood Queen Lanathel this week and then returning to take care of Putricide.
Onward to the Lich King!!
Iowa loves me so much that I get to stay for an extra day. Lucky me. If anyone wants some corn, just let me know.
I'm impressed. Last night in ICC, we matched the success of our best runs in a single evening!
In all our previous attempts, the best we've ever done was 6 bosses down over the course of the week. Last night, we managed that and still had 40 minutes left to take our first peek at the Blood Council. I'm excited by our progress and anticipate being face to face with Arthas himself before the summer's end.
Congratulations to all the raiders on all your hard work thus far.
On Monday, Jyssa and Sannis joined the ranks as Archon's newest officers. Congratulations to you both on your promotions!
