Tom resides in the Shire. Because of the time difference between NZ and NA, he often had conflicts with raiding times based on real life responsibilities. Despite this, he would try his best to attend progression raids as often as he could through his history in CSM.
Player History
Homax
Tom's original main. Joined CSM during the BWL farm, while we were waiting for AQ to come out. Had been playing with his pals from RO in Cool Duders but decided that he was interested in seeing some of the end game content. When he was new he was famously was sat during a Chromaggus kill during which Netherwind Shoulders dropped that no one needed so Kabal took a second pair to put a different enchant on. Homax was salty af about that. Quickly became part of the core raiding crew with his perfect attendance and dedication to success.

At the end of Vanilla, Tom decided to return to his pals in Cool Duders for TBC. He eventually got bored of farming Kara on his mage and decided to level a paladin with Mow's warrior. During BT progression Tom rejoined CSM and eventually found himself back in the raiding team. Was a big proponent of the Protection Paladin and would respec to tank Hyjal trash each week, much to the benefit of the Warriors and healers sanity. Started a new job during the year of farming Tier 6 and eventually phased himself out of the raiding core. Isiah would eventually replace him as the pocket prot Paladin when necessary. Throughout TBC it was not uncommon for Tom to receive random tells from people trying to make groups for Karazhan because he was in CSM and was a Paladin and everyone wanted holy Paladins. Whenever someone messaged him and asked what his spec was he'd reply "[Gorehowl][Gorehowl][Gorehowl]" linking the 2H axe 3 times. This often confused the person asking him but they generally assumed he meant he was Ret and they'd stop talking to him because who really wants a Ret Paladin.
Return to Homax
Tom was casual for pretty much the entirety of Wrath between school and work. He would often be on at non-peak hours and always be down for doing 10m raids and dungeons and shit. During Wrath Tom, Mow, and Zelf popularized the original form of Spending time in Dalaran. Tom continued to play Homax into Cata and was in the progression 10m team for the majority of the expansion. He crafted the guild's first Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest during Firelands and provided the big dick DPS to keep CSM competitive even after the guild fell to mad casual status raiding 1-2 days a week.

With the release of MoP Tom decided to try out the new Monk class. He loved the class' ability to fill all 3 roles while having interesting play styles for each spec. Tom raided with the progression 10m team all the way through ToT normal modes. While we were working on ToT heroic modes, his schedule changed and he was no longer able to make it to raids. Gordonramsay also had to quit around the same time and this saw the death of the 10m progression team. Tom remained casual for the rest of the expansion often joining in on the flex runs of Siege when he could. Going into WoD Tom's availability opened up again and he once again joined the raiding team. With the new flex tech put into the normal and heroic raids, it was no longer a big deal when he couldn't make it because of class/school. Tom regularly filled all 3 roles (dps, healer, tank) despite only having a dual spec. He bitched about it constantly, but his flexibility was core to the guild's success during Highmaul and BRF. Eventually started his big boy job and was totally unable to raid anymore during HFC. He played for the first 9 months or so of Legion but got bored of not being able to attend the actual heroic/mythic raids and eventually let his sub lapse. Tom is still one of the most active members on the guild's Discord but it's been speculated that he may have been replaced by a bot with a small set of canned responses. These include but are not limited to:
- "INVITE" or "Invite"
- YM's a *insert current discord topic*
- Owned
- nice game/country/guild
- nerds
