And the gryphon bug for example, existed on beta for months before 4.0 went live. And it didn't even cross my mind that bliz would somehow manage to deploy it on live servers, even after ptr. ._.

Also, the scourge invasion in total, it didn't last much longer than a week or two, didn't it?

Pumpkin.......evil......

And the scourge invasion lasted like a month almost. atleast 3 weeks.

Yeah it must've been around 3 weeks. My bf was stuck in Afghanistan for the duration of the scourge invasion (For 2 weeks. He keeps saying he never got the chance to take part in the scourge invasion, but I'm pretty sure he came back close to the end of it).
We've had plenty of time to complete the feat of strength though. It feels like not a very long time though, might be because i've been a bit lazy to get it on my alts. o.O;

Thats why my prediction is 11/30 cause it's a week before the release of Cata and it'll be about the 3 - 4 week mark.

This also means the portals will be gone from dal. You might wanna change your hearth stone or rely on mages to get around.

My logical side wants to say "no, next week is too early" but alas...

WoW 6th Anniversary falls right on the 23rd... a Tuesday. Not just any Tuesday, next Tuesday.

DUNDUNDUN!

My suspicion?
The shattering will take place on WoW's 6th Anniversary. Kicking off the new FoS with getting burned alive by Deathwing. I anticipate they're going to give players at least 2 weeks for them to get this Deathwing Achievement. Also, the fact that there's no minipet or something commemorating the 6h Anniversary seems to lead to the fact of 'why have a minipet when our gift to you is THE WORLD BEING BLOWN UP, AHAHAHAHA'.

So patch, next Tuesday? Probably.
Happy Anniversary WoW and Good Bye Azeroth as we know it XD

Actually there is a minipet. Lil Alexstrasza is rumored to be said pet since shes not in the store to be bought.

Nope, there's no minipet this year, it's been confirmed by Blizzard.

World of Warcraft turns six on November 23rd, 2010! It's been a truly incredible six years, and we'd like to thank you all for joining us on this momentous occasion. To celebrate, players that log into the game between the dates of November 30th and December 14th will receive a feat of strength added to their Achievements. We look forward to another great year ahead and many more to come!

The Baby Blizzard Bear was a gift that we mailed to players for logging in for our five-year anniversary. We plan to reserve this sort of celebratory bonus for the most notable milestones or events.

Where does it say 'no mini pet will be given this year'? I does not see it. I still think they will give one since they're being coy about it. They gave us Onyxia last year and the Blizzard bear before that. They just mean they arent reusing the Baby Blizzard Bear.

Blue confirms no minipet this year.

Also Lil Alexastraza was removed from the game files.

The second part of the quote was one I added in after someone asked them directly about the minipet. They replied that there wouldn't be one given this year because they're saving them for milestones.

Ouch. The players are gonna be pissed......the forums are definitely gonna explode. Lots of people, including myself, were really looking forward to Lil Alexstrasza.....

People shouldn't have expected Lil' Alexastraza @_@ No offense, but it was confirmed to be removed on Nov 3rd. So the chance of it being the minipet for the anniversary poofed long ago D:

Makes me sad, I really wanted an Alexstraza for my mini deathwing.

And players are mad. I'm a bit sad there's no minipet (seriously, the world being blown apart is a huge milestone!) but eh I'm not too broken up over it.

Oh, I'm seriously pissed. I think it's a cop out. They're prolly thinking milestones like.. 10th anniversary. Psh.. c'mon. We need moar mini-pets.

Well... I hope it's the week after, cause only a week to pop in out of portals that aren't up much given the lack of assistance in this or that major city kinda' bites... but oh well I guess ^^

I always figured any Anniversary was a milestone. >>

And I would have thought redoing the entire old world was a pretty big milestone too...

There's been hints of patch coming this tuesday- but its happen before, where the patch end up coming a week later-
I'm mad over the no pet (I'm a pet collector blizz! i buy all ur pets- i deserve free pets) but if the milestone is the Shattering- i be happy
idk what it believe- i guess i'll have to settle down and wait and see
