Sorry for the confusion on that one. I've been struggling with this weekend's event start times apparently. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Get your Gnome face on!!! Event starts at Ak'Anon in Steamfont at 3 pm EST.

RULES: No PvP, no buffs, no clickies, only wear and use what you started with. May use abilities such as Sneak, May use the light heal spell you started with if you are a cleric, but may not use buffs such as Armor or Divine Aura. A /who gnome 1 log will be taken in each zone. Porting or using firepots is forbidden.

Which route will YOU take? What strategy will YOU use? Will you team up? Will you sacrifice your buddies? So many possibilities! May the best gnome win!

Agreed. Honestly it felt needlessly cruel as well. Like with the person who was about to win getting sniped by that ice giant toward the very end. Like, seriously, people struggled and spent a lot of time to get that far, with that crowd of 60s waiting at the finish line...you all couldn't have just killed the damn giant?

This race honestly left me feeling really depressed, and the more I think about it the more I would have been better off if I had just died early in butcherblock or something. Make things quick, painless, and free of expectations. Wouldn't be surprised if there were also some backdoor dealings behind the scenes in favor of select people too. Probably the last one of these I will ever take part in.

haha that part was hilarious. God bless that hero gnome, he took his shot and he failed, but his sacrafice made another of his clan a hero.
