    My guildy is Serbian and she doesn't celebrate christmas until some (silly) date like the 6th of January. I'm not too up to date on my Serbs so I don't know whether that's normal or why they do it.

    In Spain the gifts were given that day too ("were" since more and more people do it the 25th now, but it's still common to do it on the 6th). Anyways, it does make more sense on the 6th of January. That's when Jesus got his gifts and all that.

    I received the Robot 2007 pet from the stolen present and got the FoS for it. I think you get the FoS from receiving the items as a gift still, but not if you purchase it from the vendor.

    I keep wanting to say each present is by levels so 40 might not be able to get the FoS, but cannot remember (never had a toon not maxed level since Vanilla).

So, the Orthodox church still uses old Julian calendar, and the diff between these calendars is exactly two weeks, hence 24th of December -> 6th of January. Russians also have the Orthodox New Year (they call it "Old New Year") at 13th of January for the same reason.

    Yes, he means Christmas. Christmas is 1 day, 25th of December, not 24th or 26th.

    Christmas Eve is the 24th - Not Christmas

    Also just because you Celebrate Christmas on another day doesn't change the fact that Christmas is the 25th, please remember that before posting.

    Personally i think it's foreshadowing.... A new Battle-ground maybe swtor-esque football-like? Don't let me get all you WoWers excited for nothing, I am only guessing/hoping.

    my Horde BE DK got both footballs in one gift

    FWIW
    You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever, But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun...
    And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise, And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea.
    And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body, Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind.

    Please remember that christmas wasn't originally on the 25th and in some places it still isn't before posting.

    As for the gift, I haven't logged on in a few days and if I do decide to do it before we start raiding again maybe I'll pick it up, but I don't really feel that I need another useless item :P

    Christmas Eve is still 24th and Christmas Day is still 25th. That is the facts regardless of when you celebrate or open presents.
