The Pale Light of the Greater Moon

Lunar MoongladeBy now, you’ve probably read about the World of Warcraft’s Lunar New Year’s Festival, loosely based on the Chinese New Year’s celebrations.

The cities are redecorated, there are kinky quest rewards to be had, and best of all, there’s a teleport system included with your Lunar Festival Invitation linking the major cities … available to you once every 10 minutes, 20 minutes if you have to pass through Moonglade on your way. (Hearthstone is available once every 60 minutes, do the math.) I love kinky quest rewards as much as the next guy, but I LOVE practical, even if I’m only shaving a few minutes off travel time.

Screenshots of the decor and the sights are available in a Flickr Lunar Festival photo set.

Take some time this weekend to see the Lunar sights for yourself. Spectacular.

Originally posted by Sligoth of Warcraft’s Thunderlord realm, deleted, and then, through the wonders of internet cache, this cyber tale is now resurrected: “My name is Sligoth, and I am a level 41 rogue. On a day like any other, I was farming up copper to hand in for the war effort when I ran by a little hut near Orgrimmar. Strange things were said in that hut and – being an adult – it did not take me long to figure out that some serious World of Warcraft cyber was underway.” Screenshots are included, or, if you are as annoyed by imageshack as I am, I’ve mirrored the shots in a Flickr set.

It’s really hard to beat the fake GM announcement pranks at these worldwide historical events:

And until I spotted the cracks in the impersonation, it gave me pause. A 3-day Warcraft vacation? That’s quite a chunk of DKP I’d give up, ALTHOUGH, a forced break from raiding might be nice.

The GM Posers are still perfecting their technique; so far, no genuine GMs are in evidence.

Shame. That’s usually when things start to get good.
