Official Wrath of the Lich King Release Date Announced

It doesn’t get more official than this, I awake this morning to find a new gigantic splash page on worldofwarcraft.com announcing the newest expansion pack, World of Warcraft: The Wrath of the Lich King slated to release…

WotLK Release Date: November 13th, 2008

With just under 2 months before release you can expect to see patch 3.0.2 hit the live servers very soon. There’s a lot of work to be done over at blizzard to get everything ready for the expansion, but if I know one thing about Blizzard…when a release date is announced there is no returning.

Keep checking back on ZugGaming.com for more WotLK News and World of Warcraft strategy guides.

ZugGaming.com LF1M, You!

When I launched ZugGaming.com July of 2007 I wasn’t sure what to expect. All I knew was I loved playing WoW and needed a place to just vent. I didn’t know much about building web sites, writing well versed strategy articles or the general workings of what all goes into maintaining a blog.

Since those humble beginnings over a year ago the site has really exploded. ZugGaming.com now serves close to 4,000 unique visitors daily and is approaching the top 100,000 ranked global sites.

Currently nearly all of the strategy articles and new content for the site written by myself, along with some help from Shadowscythe and a few others along the way who have contributed their own strategy articles. I would love nothing more than to write 5-6 different strategy articles and guides all day long, but obligations of school and work take up large portions of my time each day.

For this reason, and my unyielding desire to see ZugGaming become the best World of Warcraft strategy site on the web, I am looking for additional authors and contributors to assist me with producing the daily posts and strategies on ZugGaming.com

Now a lot of players are the under the impression that they aren’t qualified to write about WoW for a website.Well, this just isn’t true. Quite frankly, you don’t have to play arena at 2400 rating or clear Sunwell in 2 nights. There is a wide ranging spectrum of skill sets and expertises across this game that you could contribute strategies on.

I need writers who can…

• Post about WoW news, including patch notes, upcoming expansions, blue posts, etc.
• Write arena strategy articles, this includes all 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5 comps. You don’t have to be 2400 rating, so long as you understand the comps you are discussing through experience and reasoning you’ll be great! Write about all comps or just the one’s you feel more comfortable with.
• Contribute PvE / Raiding Guides, these include virtually all realms of PvE and instanced raiding. 5, 10, and 25 mans are all needed. This is one area I’m really out of loop in, as I haven’t raided anything beyond 10 mans since Pre-BC. All instances for BC and WOTLK are needed.
• Humor Aritlces, are you always up on the viral WoW videos, songs, pictures or other humorous media? This is a great place for you to share those stories with the world! (lol@ World of wifecraft)
• Other Guides, reputation farming, professions leveling, user interface, making videos…the only limit here is your imagination. If you think you’ve got a resource or guide that can help other players this will be a perfect fit for you!
• Many many more!

If you just love to write then this is your chance to be heard. Thousands of gamers from all across the globe read ZugGaming on a daily basis and they are waiting for you!

It’s my greatest dream to see ZugGaming continue to grow and thrive as the expasnion prepares to come out, and I don’t want to see it held down due to my avaialbe time to write.

So if you think you’re ready to step up to the plate and help ZugGaming propel itself to bigger than better things just drop me a note on my contact form or send an email to support (at) zuggaming (dot) com

One final note, and I probably don’t say this enough, but I just want to say thanks for all the great support I’ve received over the past 13 months from all my readers. More than once I’ve thought about just giving up on this site, but just knowing my contributions here can help other players break through and improve their game makes it all worth it.
