Now... I'm not very good at these things, but... It doesn't seem like you're registering for a "real" event. WARCRAFTLAB_LOADED isn't a recognized event in the API, but ADDON_LOADED is.

Anyone with a better knowledge of lua (lots of ya ) can correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah that was correct lol, thanks for the help. Now I just need to make sure I check arg1 to make sure it is my addon that has been loaded and not a different one.
