Visit Gurboggle’s Ledge in Vashj’ir and you can find yourself a wooden companion cube.

A little bit of a bug perhaps? I did get the achievement, but there were more than 115 quests in the zone. About 16 more than 115. :P

Do the strange wing-flapping jousting quests inside the second Flamegate in Mount Hyjal and you can obtain one of two vanity pets - Gold Mini Jouster (shown) or Blue Mini Jouster - as well as an achievement “Beware of the ‘Unbeatable?’ Pterodactyl”. The mini jousters have little dolls riding them. :)
The jousting quests have a bit of a knack to them. Point your hippogryph in the direction you want to travel and hit ‘flap wings’ once or twice to go that way. You may only need to flap once to jump between islands at the bottom of the cave, but you may have to spam it repeatedly to get back to the quest giver!

So, Cataclysm has arrived, and so has this blog! (After Tumblr managed to fix itself.)
I’m from European realms so I was there and ready approximately ten and a half hours ago, but, rather expectedly, the login servers went down as everyone tried to relog at the same time. It took approximately an hour for me to get back into the game. But…
As Thrall is off at the Maelstrom I run around Orgrimmar becoming an illustrious grand master in all of my professions and learning to fly. I quickly sit down on top of the bank roof for a picnic (a favourite pastime, made impossible until now by the new bank structure!)…
and picked my starting zone… Mount Hyjal.
