Guide Contest - 2 Days Left
You have 2 days left to finalize your guides and make them pretty before the contest ends! I would also like to add that if you had a super awesome guide on our forums and have decent ideas on how to improve it (= put some real work in it and don't just copy paste your post) you are free to submit it. It seemed a little unfair to "ban" from the contest people who already contributed to the community in the first place.

At this point we have over 300 submissions and anyone can win as long as you write something nice! Also, I think we have enough "fun"/5 lines guides ... You can go back to the useful/helpful stuff now

If you didn't hear about the contest before, check this post: MMO-Champion Guide Contest - Win a Mottled Drake and a Riding Turtle!


MMO-Champion "Be nice, not naughty!" - Winners
The "Be nice, not naughty!" Giveaway has been a success and almost 2000 people submitted their screenshot after being nice in-game!

I will contact winners and send them a private message on forum before sending the prizes, mostly to make sure that people didn't just register and forget about it (and also to ask for the region of the mount/pet codes, etc ...). If you want to spy on how it went, I covered my back and recorded it but I doubt it's very interesting.

Thanks again to WoWTCGLoot.com for providing some of the prizes for this contest.

Atramedes Heroic 25 World First Kill by Method
Bosses are getting harder and world first kills happen slower, especially during the holidays! Method was the first guild in the world to defeat Atramedes in heroic mode! It also makes them the first guild with 6 heroic boss kills, congratulations to them!

    Funny, I'm sure she's 100% better than you and I, and, unlike you, she doesn't need to increase her e-penis by bragging about a title, that's what an Armory is for.

    Anyone else find it annoying how person who got the first prize only had 1 post count?

    Should of been a minimum post count of 100 to get the prizes in my opinion.

    No such rule about post count was stated when the contest was launched. Don't be a sore loser.

    Congrats to those who won.

    Thanks and grats to the other winners. Only thing that bugs me is that 3 of the 10 winners to get a non-Curse Premium prize registered on the 24th or 25th.

    haha you incorrectly named one of the companions as "Crawling Gnome". the mental image was glorious, although how can you tell if they are crawling, they are already so close to the ground?

    Why do I even bother to click on the Dark Legacy Comic link any more, the last time that comic was funny I was in preschool.

    Old member/post count =! contributor.
    Just saying, I for one got my old account deleted due being inactive for a while ( at least thats why I think )
    Note: didnt participate in the contest, as I dont care about mounts/pets, just think its funny to always see old members whine if new members win something ( this goes for a lot of forums, not just this one )

    Don't know if this has been said or not, but you missed a few companion pets from quests. I'm sure I'm missing a few, but these were what I thought of at the top of my head.
    Tiny Flamefly
    Withers
    Brazie's Sunflower

    I think it;s intentional (Mr. Grubs is missing too) all the ones he listed however were made available only once Cata launched, the 4 listed there and in my post are available without Cata and have no connection to anything new with Cata, they're new with the shattering however.

    I just realized Mr. Grubbs and the Strand Crawler pet from the Fishing dailies were missing and I was about to add them to the list. I thought that might the case, but thought I'd mention it anyway. >_<;

    You guys obviously have no social skills. What he said was in no way, shape or form bashing the shaman. He was making a joke.

    BTW Gratz to the winners!

    You are kidding, right?They were on top since vanilla/bc: World first legit Lady Vashj, Alliance first- world second to clear Sunwell, Sarth 3d 10 man world first, Alliance first world 2nd Algalon. And Paragon just emerged on top during ICC.

    Not being a sore loser. Just stating that people who got the prizes registered on the day just to enter the prize draw.

    The screenshot Method posted does look fishy as they tanked him in hallway as far as I can see and by facing his tail out the rings spawn outside the room which sorta trivilize the encounter

    Wow the Grand Price winner "bigMackie" won by saying "having a good holiday?" and "have a good Christmas"...
    I guess I misunderstood the meaning of this giveaway.
