Available raid times, how do you feel about extending raids? :
Your raid times are perfect for my schedule, and I don't mind extending raids if we are close to downing a boss or something like that. I can guarantee at least 90% attendance, the only times I won't be able to make it is if something very important is going on IRL.

Armory Link (make sure you are in PvE gear) :
http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/outland/Nicolele/advancedI'm currently on Outland but I will transfer to Talnivarr if my application is accepted.
I logged out in PvE gear but the Armory does not seem to be updating properly, it will probably be updated soon though.
Character History
Previous Guilds - Why did you leave? go into details!:
Nordlyset - I was in a Norwegian guild called Nordlyset on Lightning's Blade in the beginning of Cataclysm. The guild eventually split apart because a lot of our core raiders and officers stopped raiding, and our guild master lacked motivation to recruit new people. After this, I didn't really start raiding again before Dragon Soul was released.
Ten Souls - I raided with Ten Souls on Frostmane in Dragon Soul, and cleared 6/8 HC with them. The GM all of a sudden figured out that he was bored of WoW, and he quit the game. One of the officers took over the GM role, but things only went downhill after this, and people started leaving.
Previous Raiding Experience (Write down all your previous experience not just the latest content)?
Vanilla:
Didn't play in vanilla wow.
TBC:
Cleared Karazhan, Gruul's Lair and Zul'Aman before I quit.
Wotlk:
Sadly, I did not play during Wotlk.
Cataclysm:
BWD: 6/6 HC pre-nerf
BoT: 2/5 HC pre-nerf
TOTFW: 2/2 normal pre-nerf
I did not get to kill Al'akir HC, Sinestra etc. because my guild split apart and I decided to stop raiding for a while because of lack of motivation.
Proof of this experience on my warrior:
http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/kazzak/Astley/advancedFirelands: Killed Ragnaros the first week it was released, then quit raiding untill Dragon Soul was released.
DS: 6/8 HC on my druid and I also have a lot of exp on Spine HC.
When did you start playing your character?:
I started playing on my druid early in Cataclysm, but I did not really start raiding on this specific char before Dragon Soul.
Please write a detailed list of your current alts and their armory links:
Warrior:

I also have a lot of other alts (9 lvl 85s) but these are not very noteworthy as I do not raid on them.

I also make sure Insect Swarm and Moonfire is always on my target, and that I use Starsurge on Cooldown.
How do you keep updated on your class changes and theorycrafting?:
I mostly get information from Elitistjerks, but also a bit of MMO-champion.
What do you think is important for maintaining a good guild and how do you approach this?:
I think that is very important that everyone is motivated even though we might whipe a lot on certain bosses. It is also important that the leadership and communication within the guild is good, which also helps keep the motivation up.
Why do you want to join Ascension?:
I am looking for a serious guild with some good progression that I can stay with for a long time even when MoP is released. I am really looking forward to raiding in MoP as well.
