Name: Wormdirt Class: Warrior Race:Undead Realm:Vashj
My first attempt. Of course I start at a disadvantage: PVP server and a non-kiting class, but this is ironman afterall. By the way, since I am dead at the inception of my character's "birth"(Undead are resurrected ) does that mean I've technically lost already? =)
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

I've been doing the Ironman Challenge for a while now (although I've slowed down a bit lately) so it's about time I introduced myself. I've always been a fan of questing, but dailies are pretty boring and I can't face doing the new loremaster any time soon, so when @warcraft tweeted about the EU forum thread it wasn't long before I had my first iron character.
As most people were on Earthen Ring horde side I decided to join them. I also decided to randomise the class and then race of each character in such a way that I'd end up with 1 of each class (and after that maybe start with different class-race combinations).
My first character was a troll druid called Gadjiron and that went pretty well. Things were just starting to get a bit difficult when the quest Wenikee Boltbucket teleported me too high in the air and I died from falling at level 20. Normally I'd have skipped something like that but I'd recently watched a video of another ironman who survived the same fall.
Try number 2 was a blood elf priest called Jironai. Harder than last time, but also more fun (except for having to drink more often). Mark 1 accidentally got disqualified by a green item, so I rerolled and got to level 17 before I simply pulled two enemies at the same time and messed it up.
By this time the ironman challenge was getting popular and there was plenty of chatting going on. It's nice to see lots of people joining in, but it can get a bit distracting. On the other hand alliance, which had been pretty empty until then, now had a decent sized but significantly quieter community. Earlier I had created a dwarf warrior called Magniron, but just let him sit at about level 5. Despite creating 2 new horde characters (a hunter and shaman), I ended up playing him next. By far the most fun (maybe because you can't heal yourself?) ironman I've played, I ended up at level 28. For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to do an escort quest.
After that I had a bit of a break from WoW. Just after Magniron died I made a human paladin called Jironei (for now my dead ironmen remain on the character selection screen), so when I got back I started from where I left off and died immediately at level 6 to some kobolds. I created an undead mage called Vironas that fell to a similar fate (this time to a rare), also at level 6.
Obviously I wasn't in the right frame of mind for the challenge, so went back to the hunter I had created previously (a tauren called Caironutha). Playing an easier class was definitely what I needed as I'm having fun and currently at level 15.
As mentioned at the beginning, I'm not playing my ironmen as much as I used to (due to getting back into roleplaying), but I'm looking forward to my first rogue and warlock, as well as retrying the druid, warrior and priest.

Spingsong here, level 51 blood elf priestess.
This is my second challenge attempt; my first was Snowowl, a druid who perished at level 45 in a nasty cave in the Eastern Plaguelands.
I love this challenge, and I hope to succeed. Best wishes and good fortune to all!

Ferrdrak, Orc Warrior of the HORDE, signing in! ;D This is my 4th try at the Ironman challenge, but my first char on Earthen Ring (EU FTW!!!). I am fixated on beating the challenge with an orc warrior - no other race or class will do it for me I got my first char, Ferduro, up to Lvl 34 when he perished in the Hinterlands at the hands of the Wildhammer dwarfs - sloppiness on my part Second char, Ferragor, was full of anger to avenge his brother, yet his cockiness led to an early demise in Azshara. Took a wrong turn, ecountered a group of gnomes....damn gnomes Third char, Ferrdrak I, father of the two others set out to avenge his sons, however, grief and age led him to a grave mistake: ESCORT MISSION So stupid, somewhere in Ashenvale shall he be buried! Now comes Ferrdrak II, youngest son of Ferrdrak I. He made it to a good start, already clearing Azshara al Lvl 22. He swears not to commit the follies of his kin: no lazy shortcuts, no sloppiness and no arrogance. Let's see how far he goes And the greatest thanks to the creator of this challenge! WoW is so much fun again ;D Headline:"WoW nerfed to lvl preschool!" Random Ironman Challenger:" I don't get it"

Hello people, Mauro from Italy here. I'm planning to start a new character for the challenge. Maybe a warrior.
I didn't decide the faction and the server yet. I'll let you updated.

2nd attempt on Irongopher reporting for roll-call after dying again to stupidity on Aerie Peak. Realised that it would be more fun to share and join a realm that was full of us nutters. *smiles*
Still a priest but have switched back to Gnome as you can see over their heads easier.
