Around Azeroth: Revenge of the failoc

by Elizabeth Wachowski Aug 17th 2008 at 10:00AM

The failoc, an unofficial symbol of all that went wrong with BlizzCon's ticketing process this year, has appeared in everything from player-created games to t-shirts. But Fawxy of Trollbane decided to go a step farther and bring the failoc to the Stormwind Bank. This failoc features a full BlizzCon murloc suit, a tiny little flag, and the BlizzCon motto, "An error has occured."

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 strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more sunsets.

an ERROR? !!

MAssive Horde of crazy people stormed the server and bought EVERY ticket in 15 minutes !

_15_ Minutes !

and you call that a "failure" ?? Of course the server exploded ! the whole network was engorged and never blizzard could have predicted that kind of success.

it's a good news , a huge success, the living proof people crave for Starcraft, diablo and warcraft.

And yeah I can product a massive "failure" when diablo 3 will be out : no fu... diablo 3 box in shop ! Blizzard failed, ho my god : they failed by having a huge success.

sigh the whining, yeah, it happens, technology is not magical.
