1. Your age, gender, and time played:
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Played (on druid): 152days 15hr - 62days @80
Total player (on alts and previous mains that were played past 60): ~ 311 days
2. List any alts and off specs you have gear for AND CAN PLAY COMPETENTLY (your main should be able to respec and play any spec on the fly):
Dk - blood tank / Unholy dps Armory
Shaman - enhance / no offspec Armory
Paladin - Ret / Prot Armory
3. Armory links (mandatory):
[recruit loc="us,gorefiend"]Coldturkey[/recruit]
4. Any WWS or WMO links or other clear indication of your performance in a raid (recommended):
quick link to festergut
guild's main WOL page
5. We are a raiding guild and are usually in the top 100 guilds in the US; it is expected you have raiding experience and know ALL encounters and hard modes currently in game! In your opinion, what is the most difficult boss encounter you have ever defeated and why?:
I know this will sound cliche but M'uru was the hardest encounter I've ever done. I killed it pre-3.0 nerf time and it is the only encounter that I've actually had any difficulty tanking. Although part of the problem would have been my severely outdated computer at the time (since then i have spent a bit of money on a new one that handles everything in wow without any issue) but as a tank not very many encounters are challenging, especially for a feral druid. Threat races were not a concern for ferals in TBC and still arent now and high movement fights barely phase a feral tank or dps.
6. Previous guilds/servers and reason for leaving, also include any references we may contact:
My last guild was <Riot> of gorefiend. I quit about a week ago because I didnt like the fact that we were still carrying some members of the guild after weeks of the management promising improvement. As you can see from the wws I provided many of the dps weren't pulling their weight and because gorefiend is pretty much a dead server for alliance there is no pool to recruit new people from. I left and decided to rejoin my old guild to wear the tag for a few weeks while I decided if i was going to transfer to Gorefiend Horde or transfer servers. I've decided I'd rather be a werewolf than a cow.
Previous to Riot I was leading my own guild <Wings of Cold> but I decided to stop leading raids because personal drama and ingame drama had reached excessive levels and I needed a break. I lead this guild from the very last month or so of TBC well into Ulduar normal.
In TBC my last real raiding guild was <Exo> of smolderthorn. Dangerice might remember me, my name was Phrozty at the time. I raided with Exo until we killed M'uru and then a feral druid that was an old guild member (and I assume I had been recruited to replace) came out of the woodwork and consequently I was out of a raid spot. I transfered back to Gorefiend to play with friends in the interm.
7. It is assumed you will be available from 8-12 ST (Server Time is EST) Tuesday through Thursday, during progression we will raid Sunday and Monday as well starting at 8 ST and ending when all encounters are defeated. If you can’t, please explain why you couldn't make our scheduled raid times (or why you even bothered applying):
I believe server time is EST which is also my time so these raid times shouldnt be a problem with the exception of a very very rare (maybe 5 times a year) I have to work a closing shift at work and wont be home until probably 10pm EST.
8. Explain what specifically puts you at the top? We raid to be at the top and expect it of all our members. Do you take pride in topping meters, never letting the tank die, never pulling aggro, etc.? What separates you from the rest? Be specific, this will be a major indicator of the kind of player you are:
I think that I can contribute with my ability to play both sides of a feral druid to the highest degree. I pride my ability to do the cat "rotation" without any special mods babying me through the steps and being able to top the meters where ferals excel. Until ICC came out I could consistently beat evenly geared or better geared rogues without so much as breaking a sweat on most single target heavy fights. As for tanking, I can pretty much do it with my eyes closed. I prefer to dps whenever possible but my threat and survivability is top notch when I'm asked to perform the 3rd tank role. As a player, I'm reliable and able to play any of my alts with almost as much precision as my main.
9. Post a screen shot of your UI or a comprehensive list of mods that you use for raiding. ARE YOU A CLICKER?

This is not in a raid so omen, class timers, and some other raiding mods are not showing.
Also I use bartender to hide some of my buttons and the ones on the right side (not my main bar) don't show the applicable key bindings in the box.
10. If you have thoroughly answered the following questions and you are confident you are what we are looking for, you have a good chance of being trialed, but we'd like to know why you want to join us? What made you choose us over the other guilds out there?
My friend plays on Scilla and said it was a pretty progressed server (which is nice because the alliance on my server is pretty dead) and your guild's name and amazingly well done site had me hooked. I mean who cannot resist the ms paint awesomeness?
