We might need them for loot farms on Wednesday, although from the looks of the patch changes and all the discussions, heh, maybe we won’t. WoW Forums: “Million warrior march” General forum thread discussion. Oh and by the way, the title “Million Gnome March” was for the LAST warrior protest in January 2005.
