WoW Insider Show Episode 43: Post-Dingstravaganza glow
Jun 24th, 2008
Yeah, Turpster was pretty thrilled with the way his big event went last week, and this past Saturday on the podcast, he just "rode the wave" of player support and basked in the glow of everyone cheering him on for the ding. Lucky guy. I was unable to make it this past weekend, but that didn't stop the steamroller that is this podcast: John "BigBearButt" Patricelli (he of the Shifting Perspectives) kindly stepped in and oversaw the festivities, with help and input from Amanda Dean, and they chatted about -- what else -- all the greatest news of the past week in WoW.- John P stood up for me on Clockwork Rocket Bots -- I agree 100% with him that we need them buffable once more.
- They asked whether the Gigantique bag is worth the extra cash (short answer: no, but people who have the cash will spend it anyway).
- They chatted about Season 4 and the changes arriving with it, including that Cheat Death nerf.
- And apparently birthdays were celebrated -- if you've ever wanted to hear Turpster sing, this is the show for you. Good thing I wasn't there -- I celebrate nothing! Ever!

I totally agree with Turpster, we NEED more organized events like this
Which is why I'm organizing my own event, Night of the Living Dead '08! Coming this july on a US realm yet to be decided (my home realm is to populated) For more info, check our guild forums event section

I do a round of dailies before breakfast each morning, before the sleep has even cleared from my eyes. It takes 3-4 weeks of dailies to make enough gold for epic flying skill. It takes 3 weeks of dailies to make enough gold for 8 more bag slots on your character.
With a complete set of gems/enchants on my main, and 6 other level 70s, what else is there to spend the gold on?

The Gigantue bag is sold by “Ms. Pilton” in Lower City. Would the Lower city rep. discount apply?
1200 gold + Lower City exalted rep discount (i.e. 20%) = 960 gold
