The Strand is crazy. I ran it twice — the first time, I had no idea what the hell was going on but we won, and the second time I had figured it out but my team decided we would rather let the Alliance bottleneck us than actually use strategery, so we got curbstomped.
So, if you are doing SotA, please, for the love of Har'koa the Leopard Goddess (I think she's Ahami's new patron because Har'koa kicks ass), take out both gates instead of just throwing yourself through one gate, one siege tank at a time, right into the enemy's defense. Remember, defense has the advantage anyway — if you split them up, then you have a much better chance of making up for that imbalance.
Pretty sure SotA is going to be one of the battlegrounds I love, though. It's a lot of fun, even though I don't really have time to heal it — I'll probably spend more time in there on Ide or Silang, because it's definitely a DPSer's dream match.
I tried to do Wintergrasp, but there were no Alliance in the zone, so I was sad.
So I went to my old pal, Alterac Valley, for a quick run before I had to log, and we swept the place, getting the Everything Counts achievement. Awesome DK tank on Vann, too.
And then, after determining that I really need more resilience and testing the waters in the Strand, I went and spent 400g on training. So I guess we all know what my priorities are.
(Sadly, in the tradition I started with Ideale, I forgot to pay attention to the XP bar entirely and thus missed screen-capping the moment it disappeared.)
P.S. Lava Burst and Hex are really taking away most of my motivation to level a mage.
EDIT: On a side note, I really need to pick a name to go with for this blog. I was using MW at first (mayhemwench was an old chat handle back in the day), but I really don't use that for anything but an e-mail address anymore. Then I went with Siya ("that person") until I discovered that there is another WoW blogger who has been around a lot longer named Siha. So now I'm using KC, because Kitty Collector is just a bit too long for my lazy ass to type, but I am not big on the initials thing. I don't want to use Ahami or Ideale as my handle — that would just be kind of weird, I think.
Ideas?

Congrats on the 80 ding.
Its sad that wintergrasp was empty - my guildies have been reporting the same thing.
Its probably a bit like Halaa towards the end of TBC..... people couldnt be bothered doing it. I had some success there on the weekend though basically doubling my kill count :)
The sad thing is that whenever I go in, it's totally empty, and then 45 minutes later, when I'm in the middle of an instance, all of a sudden it's got some action going on. I've seen some awesome videos of Wintergrasp PVP, but the 3 times I've gone in there hasn't been a soul in the zone.
And thanks!
