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!

    I think you forgot to list th companion pt, Wither. You get him in Darkshore after doing a few chains in Lor'danel.

    I assume its Method (EU) given that the location confirmation is strangely missing again.

    Getting 2nd kill on Naxx, EOS, and 1st on OS3D-10man.
    And being among the 1st and 2nd, and 2nd on getting the drake from achievements in Naxx, Ulduar and ICC and still being in top 15 in those instances.
    ..and out of the blue a Finnish guild called Paragon comes and getting a single World First, and suddenly Method ( one of the oldest hardcore guilds in the World ) becomes casuals.

    *end of fanboy rant*
    Paragon didnt get "a single world first" they kinda dominated ICC. But ye, they kinda came out of the blue.

    Is it really coincidental that Gaymer77 won the glitter unicorn mount?

    Some people like certain titles. The choice of title you use has ZERO connection to player skill.

    Are you suggesting we make an addon and call it TitleScore?

    Also sorry but gotta /lol at gaymer77 for wining TRH (im not jealous, didnt even compete, just genuinly entertained )

    True, it's a reward from "Remembrance of Auberdine" alliance only quest. Horde can buy it from Apothecary Furrows.

    I recently removed names and titles from showing and I haven't bothered to check what title I had on . What's wrong with Champion of the frozen wastes anyway ? ;p

    Congratulations. I was so fond of this contest. I thought that at least one thing I do this christmas day will work out in my favor. Did the instance and the post 3 hours after I crashed my gf's car and was pretty depressed. But congratulations to the winners, hope they are all happy with their prizes.

    Grats to the winners, but damn. 825 won and I was 822. Oh well. I wouldn't have really liked the Pandaren Monk anyway, would have gifted it to a friend.
