From the Warcraft forums, player-created content (that means it’s FREE!): Warcraft players’ favorite battlecries to engage the enemy. Leeroy isn’t mentioned until post #36, which is encouraging. (Hanzo archive of thread)

C’Thun Prognosis: Negative
More about those Ahn’Qiraj encounters in Warcraft that people have been yammering about lately: a hotfix to Ouro and C’Thun to reduce their wtfpwnage. Whether this is a “fix” or a “capitulation” is in the eye of the beholder; although Blizzard did call it a hotFIX, not a hotCAPITULATION. (Furl archive of thread)
Improving Televised Gaming
USA Network and Major League Gaming recently announced a deal to televise the pro circuit in the fall. I’m not sure I want to watch other people play games — wouldn’t I rather play myself? Ya, think I would — but one thing that would vastly improve televised gaming: Gambling. They work something out with Vegas or … people that are more local … I’m on board. Which brings me to my latest idea for the MMOG raiding: Gambling. I’d like to see sanctioned in-game gambling on guilds and their scheduled raid targets for the night. Sure, there’s a lot of administration involved, setting odds and policing the whole operation for point shaving, etc., but this would be wildly popular. Some game adds in this feature, I’d be logging in EVERY NIGHT to get in on the action.
