I still don't understand what the whole WoW thing is about (I prefer small, easy games), but I'm sorry it's giving you such a hard time. And that your 'friends' keep making it worse. Can't you kick their asses maybe? Somehow?

Though I've really dropped the ball on my hc- and au-bingo cards, as well as the j2everafter challenge.
Oh, you did? You wanted to write the 'Gulliver' one which wasn't any Gulliver at all, right? How was it... Laputa!?
