Big Crits is a high-end progression raiding guild located on Sen'jin. Our main goal is to kill heroic bosses as fast as possible while raiding within a 12 hour a week raiding schedule.
Our guild raids Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from 7:00pm – 11:00pm CST (Sen'jin server time). Our raiding schedule is much lighter than usual during farm content.
We are currently looking for players that wish to play at a top 50 US 25m and top 150 World 25m level: players who understand the extreme hard modes; the research, skill and preparation required to be successful during a limited number of raiding hours. With the release of MoP, we are gearing up to meet new guild goals and opening up recruitment to all exceptional players regardless of class or role.
Recent Milestones
We have maintained completion of all content while relevant since our inception. Our goal is to improve every tier with Mists of Pandaria being no exception.

Recruitment Needs
All applications we receive will be looked at and considered regardless of our current recruitment needs. If you think you are an exceptional raider and you feel like you can be an asset to our raiding team, we urge you to apply!
Our application process usually takes around 24-48 hours from start to finish. Our initiate period lasts approximately one month, to ensure both parties are a good fit.

Big Crits Show
Big Crits started in 2010 as a web-based reality series about real people conquering a virtual world. We thought it would be a cool idea to be able to let people see the people behind the characters though a web series. If you are interested in seeing some of the faces of Big Crits, we are currently rolling out season 5 and you can check it out at: http://www.youtube.com/bigcritsguild

Our standards are simple and consistent across all classes, specs, and players. If you want to make it from initiate to member and continue to be a part of our raiding team you need to follow and uphold our 3 philosophies.
1) Play your class well. In each applicant we look for like-minded players that are friendly and respectful, but players that are also able to perform well under pressure.
2) Play well with others. You, as an applicant, must be able to get along with the other people you raid with. That chemistry is very important for progression and new content.
3) Show your commitment to the guild. This is, simply put, just proving to us that you enjoy being here and that you want to be here. A more in-depth description is proving that you are able to be a member of the team: using our guild forums to discuss strategies, maintaining a minimum of 90% raid attendance, and showing up to raid on time and ready to progress.

DO YOU EVEN LIFT (US-Magtheridon) is a progression raiding guild. The guild was originally only a 10-man guild, but was expanded to a 25-man roster about 2 months in MOP. The core of our current roster is made up of former hardcore raiders. We are currently looking for experienced, capable and, ideally, relatively well geared players to fill gaps in our roster.
In a few weeks of 25-man raiding, we managed to achieve as much or more progression than many guilds that have been together since the outset of the expansion. We have done this on a non-hardcore raid schedule by staying focused, being prepared and working as a team.
Progression:
25 Man Progression
Tier 14 – (as of Jan 18th 2013)
Mogu’shan Vaults – 5/6 HM
Heart of Fear – 2/6H
TotES – 4/4
Raiding Schedule:
Tuesday: 8:30 – 11:30 EST
Thursday: 8:30 – 11:30 EST
Sunday: 8:30 – 11:30 EST
(Note: We will sometimes go 30 min over in order to finish a particular encounter or instance.)
Current Recruitment Needs:
Paladin - Open
Warrior - Open
Death Knight - CLOSED
Shaman - Open
Hunter - CLOSED
Druid - Balance/Restoration
Rogue - Open
Priest - Open
Mage - Open
Warlock - Open
Monk - Open
However, we are always open to recruiting/accommodating capable players of any class/spec. We believe that teamwork and raid chemistry are more valuable than class composition, so we do not limit our recruitment to any particular class or group of classes. Moreover, we want to avoid recruiting people as benchwarmers – this means that if you can pull your weight and fill one of our roster needs, you will not be sat for encounters.
Expectations:
1.) Most of us are experienced raiders. While we are willing to help recruits, discuss theory crafting, and go over tips and tricks, we don’t expect to have to teach you how to spec, gear and play your class.
2.) We raid less time per week than many progression-oriented guilds. As such, we expect you to come entirely prepared to raids, give us 100%, and not waste anyone’s time.
3.) As a member, you are expected to consistently (+95% of the time) show up for raid.
4.) Understand how progression content works (i.e. dying repeatedly and not losing focus or rage-quitting).
5.) Know how to take criticism – If you mess up, you will be told so and expected not to do it again.
Why Raid with Us:
Simply put – it is a great time. We are drama and clique free, and raid-spots and loot are allocated entirely on the basis of merit.

We are a group of hardcore-minded players raiding on a more casual schedule. We may only raid only twice a week, but when we get in to raid we take a very serious approach and get things done. Our goal each tier is to full clear heroics, never straying too far behind the progression curve, while maintaining our lighter schedule.
If you're interested in serious progression on a lighter schedule, I'd love to chat:
