(Oh, and I updated the contest with the first clue)

Goodness goodness...

I recently bought World of Warcraft for my birthday. My brother had shown it to me this summer, and I was hooked. The concept of a real time war was fascinating to me, so I wanted to see it for myself.

Well, I've been battling graphics issues for weeks now. They released a patch that basically killed the performance for anyone using a GeForce FX 5200 card. I've been defragging and changing drivers to try to get this to work, but not to much avail.

Last night, it really hit a head. With my framerates dipping to 1-2 FPS, I just happen to run into a slew of Alliance members. They decided to hover around my corpse for an hour or so; obliterating me every time I tried to resurrect myself.

Anyway, that got old real fast. Now I'm debating whether to upgrade my graphics card, or even just buy a new computer.
