In a most festive (and potentially damning) fashion, we put together this picture of the North American World of Warcraft community team for you.

Back (from left): Crithto, Bornakk, Zarhym, Rygarius
Front (from left): Brennvin, Daxxarri, Nethaera, Bashiok

If that doesn’t provide you with sufficient joy, here are some unedited individual shots of us. I can’t tell you how ill-advised it would be of me to suggest that you manipulate these images as you see fit. It would be especially inappropriate to then ask that you send your strange interpretations to us on Twitter. That seems quite absurd!

It’s truly been a pleasure for us to represent Blizzard and the World of Warcraft community to each other this past year. We’re anxious to hit the ground running in January, and we look forward to sharing in the adventure with you. Have a lovely holiday, all!

It was mostly rhetorical, just a little disappointed that one wasn't added in or something.

Yeah. It's kind of lazy to trot out the same old World Events without adding some new achievements. It almost renders the event useless to someone who's been playing for years.
