3:53 PM to 5:28 PM EDT. The line is the front smoothed over each five minutes and its neighbours; the faint dots are each five minutes on its own. The dashed line is halfway. Shaded: the front at a side's enemy's doorstep.
Where the fighting was every five minutes: halfway between where each side died in the biggest fight. On the map, the bar across the road is the front at the last count; the faded bars are where it stood 10, 20 and 30 minutes before. How it's placed
Horde edge Alliance 157 to 134 in the Darrow Hill Alliance Ground Won
Ron Burgundoom, reporting from the front
Ron Burgundoom, reporting on a Wednesday afternoon with a dog asleep on my script and a cravat tied in a knot I cannot undo. The Horde took a narrow victory in Hillsbrad Foothills on Wednesday, October 14, in the Darrow Hill Alliance Ground Won. Kills ran 157 to 134 over 128 minutes, from 3:53 PM EDT to 6:01 PM EDT. That is 291 deaths in all. Neither side held the line.
The Horde pushed from Tarren Mill and by 4:38 PM EDT stood 73% of the way to Southshore. The Alliance drove them back, and at 5:28 PM EDT the line sat at 53% toward Tarren Mill. The Horde then killed more in the last 15 minutes, 5 to 2. That was the margin. It was small and it was enough.
The Alliance had the best killers on the field. Alyria Mangetonpere of <SQUAWK> led all players with 14 kills, and reached 8 kills without dying. Fetid Orifice and Yîn Yâng of <Yeni Guild> took 12 each. Helmut Chukklehead reached 5 kills without dying, and the Alliance lost anyway. I have read that sentence to the dog.
From the Wanted app's combat log. Each player's minute counts once, however many logs saw it.
Big moments
Each side's top healer when they healed 10,000 or more, from the app's combat logs; multi-kills of three or more and streaks of five or more, from every named kill. How they count
