    IDK man if water flooded that shit and washed out everything to sea in addition to 10000 years passing who knows what's there. This is the Cothon of Carthage. The bottom image is from the past decade or so. 2300 years ago this was heart of the second mightiest military force in the entire...

    Ancient Civilizations

    The Sumerian Flood Myth survived into modern day. Forensically though it wasn't like a tidal wave sort of thing. The marsh area that would have been their original region had waters rise a few cm a day for a period of like 10-20 years. Until it was eventually all underwater.

    One I like a lot is that is the Persian Gulf theory. During the African Humid Period the area that is now the Persian Gulf was 120 feet lower than it is today. Making the area an extended marshland much like Southern Iraq is today. It also plays into the migration of the Sumerians from...

    Since I just leveled a classic lock on Turtle Wow, even if you spec deep into Affliction and improved drain talents this will end up at like ~150 a tic with bullshit leveling gear. Once you get Felshroud the 3 piece bonus is an additional +15% on drains. So with T1 you can probably easily get...

    Warlock goes into demon form and becomes tanky.

    Warlock is going to be super strong though. As it appears they just gave Warlock tanking tools without removing any of their damage and utility tools. So what? They can have pets, dots, their various utilities on top of being tanky as fuck now. Don't even have to bother drain tanking! I expect...

    I really like Turtle Wow and my Warlock there is almost 60 so I'll start doing MC and shit pretty soon. But since I just did a caster I will level a Rogue here. Should be a good time.

    One thing that is absolutely true here is that the reception of SoD will determine if Classic+ becomes a real thing.

    Yeah I bought direct from the ranch here in Texas. From this place. I bought a quarter cow this time as I had never done it before but I will be buying half next time. Lots of variety in cuts and great value. https://www.bastropcattlecompany.com/ Its really easy to do. This ranch is like 50...

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    Mark Kern said the reason why Stormwind is a maze of canals and shit is because it fit the aesthetic yes, but primarily they were deathly afraid of lagging out the city due to rendering. By the time they realized this wasn't really a problem they didn't have time to redesign it. It's why...

    Orgrimmar is way better than Stormwind. I like the Horde aesthetic a lot but I've never leveled the other side at all.

    This is a really cool channel by the way. Just gets into the mechanics as they are presented. Makes no conclusions or speculations about anything.

    Dwarf Priest here we go. I am actually getting pumped for this. I'll need to load up the client and stuff soon and start looking at the addons that will work.

    It has to do with the shaped granite and the much heavier megalithic stones. King Tut's tomb and all of the tombs in the Valley of Kings were carved into limestone bedrock. Using simple copper chisels and dolomite pounding stones a single worker could remove almost a square meter a day of...

    I am not promoting acoustic levitation, aliens, or any other completely fantastical thing. The only thing I 100% believe is that in our distant past (15k-30k years ago), somewhere, a more advanced society than cave dwellers surviving on hunting and gathering existed. That signs of this society...

    Honestly huge faction imbalance and being caught on the wrong side of it is the bigger concern.

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    World PVP was always, at most, a nice side distraction sometimes. If PVP is your focus for the game you're a retard. I'm way too old to die at the zone in to BRD 20 fucking times because of losers. They will also need chronoboon displacer in the game to deal with world buff retardation.

    The ramps would have still required the grade that he's talking about. Which is why the internal ramp is just another theory to add to the pile.

    No idea about other countries but the Giza pyramids are generally agreed to have been built during the 4th dynasty of the Old Kingdom. Making them some of the very oldest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Egyptian_pyramids

    Ancient Civilizations

    This is the big mystery. Later constructions like the Colosseum, the Parthenon, and so on all used much more manageable sizes of stones. These don't take any imagination to understand how they were moved and shaped. Take for example Roman/Greek columns. These were actually built in pieces and...

    Priest or Shaman depending on faction. I am very ware of faction imbalance though. Playing Turtle Wow it is so nice that you can cross faction group and raid. Sure, horde cant go into Stormwind but all the gameplay that matters ignores it. Blizzard should copy that as you are effectively...

    PVP Alliance is fine with me. No PVE realms though as I like world PVP from time to time.

    I am probably going to play this. The level 25 limit and phasing makes the sizing just the right bite sizes for me to do it. I want to either Shaman or Rogue tank.

    Also I want to say that I am not fucking around with some faggot apps just for the privilege of paying for shitty food at a reasonable price. The only places worth a shit are P. Terry's here in Texas and Tumble 22. I don't go to any other restaurants anymore. On the rare occasions I go at all...
