I just happened to have 2 weeks off at the exact time BC released. I was the first Draenei to hit 70 on my server at the time and was flamed every single day by jealous bastards because of it Funny thing is that I wasn't even trying to be the first to 70 I was just trying to catch up to the rest of my guild so I wouldn't fall to far behind in the raiding scene.

I sort of am. I will take a week off a month or two after the release. There will be too many people in the starting area that the lag will be insane, granted that there are now 2 starting areas, but still with so many people there mob drops will be farmed.
Technically 3 starting areas if you include the DK zone

QFT.

But how do you schedule vacation for an unkown date? /boggle
About 1 1/2 months before BC came out they gave a confirmed date that quite a few news site confirmed to be the real deal. I'm expecting something along the same lines will happen again this time.
