Great Gnome Race to Sandy Claws

[Squankle]

That gnome on the TD boat was I, Furditik, and to clarify I was joined by Pinebottom who sadly fell to Cazel in Oasis. To be fair the southern route through Rathe mountains--> Lake Rathe--> South Karana proved to be so much slower than through Gorge or Highpass. I did however lead the pack that chose the southern route by almost a full zone and did end up at Permafrost, but probably closer to 7th to 8th place. Oh well - nothing beats being the lucky gnome through Runnyeye and Gorge. All in all it was a great race and Larry should get some big kudos for streaming it and helping bring this content to a wider audience.

Agreed. Honestly it felt needlessly cruel as well. Like with the person who was about to win getting sniped by that ice giant toward the very end. Like, seriously, people struggled and spent a lot of time to get that far, with that crowd of 60s waiting at the finish line...you all couldn't have just killed the damn giant?

This race honestly left me feeling really depressed, and the more I think about it the more I would have been better off if I had just died early in butcherblock or something. Make things quick, painless, and free of expectations. Wouldn't be surprised if there were also some backdoor dealings behind the scenes in favor of select people too. Probably the last one of these I will ever take part in.

nooOoOoOooooOooooo i feel heckin baderino because i lost even though knowing the risks

haha that part was hilarious. God bless that hero gnome, he took his shot and he failed, but his sacrafice made another of his clan a hero.

As we turned left in Freeport I wondered: Are the majority of us turning left to go to EC because: we know where we're going? Or are we just moving as a flock of birds?

I knew I had know Idea where i was going I was just trying to follow the group, but I wondered as we turned left, wtf are we going?

I am just surprised no one parked a level 1 PvP flagged gnome at BB docks with an Oil of Fennin Ro in inventory....
