Victory
It's so satisfying to win a game. Even more so a team game.
The fact that the game in question is played online rather than in real life is irrelevant (and I do play team sports in real life too - Laggan Cricket Club for example who incidentally won a couple of games recently).
I am of course talking about World of Warcraft, a mighty fine "massively-multiplayer" online role-playing game that has been taking up a fair bit of my free time recently.
Tonight a team of 40 people from our guild (the Deeprun Pest Control) defeated one of the most infamous bosses in the game: Ragnaros, the great fire elemental who rules over the Molten Core.
He's quite big.
And pretty hard.
But after hundreds of combined hours of preparation, strategizing, getting the right equipment, several practices and considerable frustration, we finally defeated him!
As we got him closer and closer to defeat, I have to say my heart was seriously pounding - I don't think I've ever got quite such an adrenaline rush from a computer game!
Here's the proud team who made it all happen:

One step at a time, we haven't even taken down Razorgore yet. ☺
