April 2006’s edition of the Carnival of Gamers is available on n3rfed, cleverly illustrated with pseudo-screenshots of game conversations.

Don’t go read it now! If you’re going to play Warcraft tonight, save that link for the corpse run after Blackwing Lair’s Broodlord … y’know, when the instance starts to sputter and your casters use those famous last words, “I’m not sure this is going to work with the casting lag”, and you all decide to give it a try anyways because you don’t want to sit in the Suppression Room forever, so you dive in and shortly thereafter, your third tank starts getting his (or her) beatdown while the healers stare at perma-casting flash heals, and after the last rogue and hunter has been wtf-pwnt and you’re facing a run from the Searing Gorge graveyard through no fault of your own (this time), THEN take some time to read through the varied entries in this month’s Carnival.

I know you’ll be tempted to have the entire guild file an in-game petition, but reading the Carnival is a much better use of your corpse-recovery time and less likely to get your account banned for foul language.
