After you unlock the class cards, beat all the bots on hard for a gold boost, keep doing daily quests and then try your luck at arena if you feel comfortable with it. If you don't feel comfortable with arena yet just try some ranked ladder for funsies(most players at the low ranks are easy enough to beat even with more cards open to them). Nice thing about arena is the ability to leave mid run if you want to do something else. Which is super awesome.

Yeah hearthstone spectating is so freakin odd to me. Everyone does it differently and each time you gotta adjust. Did they put in an actual spectator mode yet? They should look into it if not, just so the scene which is actually starting to get interesting thanks to naxx cards.

I have a few random adamant torchics with speed boost. If anyone wants um let me know or else I'm wonder trading them this evening.

First Place Eppa! Gets to choose any song he wishes and the loser (Soniv) must sing it or face a 2 week ban. These were the terms agreed.

HiRez is finally going to be implementing dynamic queue times for match making (the static queues often resulted in some REALLY wonky matches). This should be a great thing. One of the comments:

"I can see how this would be good for ranked, the queue times there can be really long. But I don't think that smaller population queues should dictate changes like this."

*face desk*

I never really understood the whole static queue times in the first place. It was really weird when friend and I were playing.

It was better when the player base was still really small. You wouldn't have to wait ages to get a match. Also, the normal static queue time maxes out at like 1.5 min - ranked static queue maxes out at 8 min. But now that the player base has grown quite a bit, dynamic just makes more sense.

What I mean is how is a static queue ever better than a dynamic one? Wouldn't a proper dynamic queue be faster than a static queue when there's people and just as long when there isn't? The only reason I could see why a static queue would be faster is because it's forcing bad matchups when a dynamic one isn't but you can still make the dynamic queue force those very same bad matchups so at that point I don't see reason why it would change anything.

Today has been filled with destruction and repair.

Two people who assigned to the same project as me, stated me as the reason for why they wanted to be off the project because I was asking too much of them. Apparently, just checking images once a day is too much to ask. I don't know if I should be mad that this happened or sad that my coworkers don't want to even talk about the problem they have with me. People are some two faced assholes in 'merica .
