IT ... IS ... TIME! Nearly two thousand of you voted in our Grand Theft Azeroth competition, and the results are in. Nyxilyn of <Departed> on Norgannon is the clear-cut winner, receiving just shy of half the votes. Runner-up goes to Sorro of <Panda Attack> on Dark Iron, who left his blood elf orphan at the mercy of Archimonde and got slightly less than a quarter of all votes.
As you may recall, Nyxilyn chose to emulate the Grand Theft Auto Series by getting a group to kite the Pit Commander to Shattrath. This resulted in much lag, many deaths, and a warning from a GM before the combined forces of the sanctuary city's NPCs brought it down. Congratulations, Nyxilyn, and wear your title of <Grand Theft Azeroth Champion> with pride!
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We prefer full screen shots without the UI showing. And please, no more sunsets or win trading. Grats to all who participated in Grand Theft Azeroth, and we'll see you at the next competition!
