Blizzard Shop Talk
Blizzard has posted the latest edition of their "Shop Talk" feature on the forums, and included in it is some information on the upcoming 5 year anniversary celebration. Apparently the
Jeune dragonnet onyxien
pet will actually be available to anyone who logs in the entire week of the anniversary—but only to the characters you actually log in on.

Icecrown Raid Access Progression Revealed!
Lead Encounter Designer Daelo has published a lengthy post on the official forums that outlines Blizzard's plans for
access progression
in the Icecrown Citadel raid. The citadel will be broken up into four sections, and all of them won't immediately be available when
patch 3.3
goes live.
We believe a staggered release of the content will allow players to experience Icecrown Citadel at a sustainable, measured, and ultimately more enjoyable pace.
Here's a list of the noteworthy points Daelo mentions in his post:
The Lower Spire will be the only section that is available initially.
Plagueworks will open several weeks later, followed by the Crimson Hall and Frostwing Halls.
Players may not attempt the Heroic 10/25-player encounters until they defeat the Lich King in the Normal 10/25-player encounters.
The Lich King may not be attempted until Professor Putricide, Blood-Queen Lana'thel, and Sindragosa are defeated

Blue Pugs Round 3!
That's right, you get a third opportunity to go PUGging with a blue poster!
This one is
Wednesday, November 18th, at 4:00PM PST.
Since our first two tests went so well, we’d like to invite everyone out again for round 3! Come join the fun on the PTR and instead of getting the PUG blues, you could end up grouped with a blue. Members of the Development Team (including the encounter designers themselves), the QA team, and the Community Team will be on the PTR to test out the new dungeon system and want you to come join in the fun.
To have a chance to group up with one of us, just queue up for a random heroic through the Dungeon tool. We will be playing both Alliance and Horde and since the Dungeon tool allows players to group cross-server, it doesn’t matter which of the two PTR realms you join from.
Join us Wednesday 11/18/09 at 4:00pm PST.

Mr. T Commercial #1 - Mohawk Grenade
The Night Elf Mohawk himself has infiltrated the game to hand out
Mohawk Grenades
to anyone who wants to pity a fool. Along with this comes a new ad campaign with new commercials featuring Mr. T himself.
Get Your Own Mohawk Grenade!
Night Elf Mohawks can be found outside of every starter zone, such as the Northshire Abbey in
Forêt d’Elwynn
and Deathknell in
Clairières de Tirisfal
. Each Mohawk Grenade lasts 1 day and when used on an unexpecting player grants them the
Punk !
buff which lasts for 60 minutes and gives the player the face of a Night Elf Mohawk. Even after using them all up the Night Elf Mohawks will gladly give you more! An official F.A.Q. on the grenades has also been setup
here

Jace Hall Blizzard Interview Video
So Blizzard has provided us with a video from their archives!
This is an interview that
Jace Hall
did with the Blizzard staff which originally aired on December 15, 2008—just a month or so after the release of Wrath of the Lich King. He explores the Blizzard offices (which they never let me take pictures of!), talks about the decisions they made for Wrath, and settles an old rivalry.

Blizzard Holiday Card Contest
Well it looks like Blizz is having another contest! This time, you have to design a holiday greeting card!
Every holiday season, Blizzard Entertainment creates a special holiday card to spread some seasonal cheer to little murlocs, zerglings, and imps everywhere. This year, we’re inviting you to catch the spirit by creating a Blizzard-ly holiday card of your own featuring the Warcraft, StarCraft, or Diablo series. We’ll provide the template -- all you need to do is add your personal touch.

More Blue Pugs!
Apparently the previous episode of
PUGging with the blues
went so well, they've decided to do it again.
On Wednesday, November 11, 2009 at 4pm Pacific Standard Time, the Blizzard dungeon team will be testing out their own new LFG feature on the PTR—so all you have to do is hop in the queue, and who knows? You might get the chance to personally ask Ghostcrawler for that pony he promised you.
For a chance to group with the Blizzard team members, you need to use the Dungeon system and choose the "Random Heroic" option. All employees will have the <GM> tag next to their names and be able to choose whichever class, realm and faction he or she wants.

3.3 PTR Patch Notes Updated! Bug Fixes Galore!
Greetings Wowhead users! There's a new build on the PTR so you guys know what that means! Blizzard has updated their
PTR Patch Notes
with a plethora of bug fixes and some additional changes.
Nothing too amazing this build, though significant changes have been made to
The Oculus
, presumably to make it more PUG-friendly with the advent of the
Looking for Dungeon
system. Sadly, I don't see anything about Blizzard actually having made the dungeon
enjoyable
. Maybe that will come in a later build. Also, for those of you hungering to satiate your storage needs, a new 24-slot bag has been added to
Haris Pilton

Portable Hole

Icecrown Raid Difficulty Functionality
In the upcoming 3.3 content patch, as some of you already know, Icecrown will be home of the updated instance difficulty setting which can be changed on a boss
per boss
basis. It will be able to be switched at any time during a raid without leaving and reentering the instance.
Some restrictions on when you cannot change it will be in place. Such as, you cannot change the difficulty in combat or during certain scripted events. To enable it you will have first have to have defeated the Lich King on normal mode, and heroic mode
will not affect trash
in anyway and will only change the bosses.

3.3 Patch Notes Updated! (Build 10747)
So the latest PTR build has some very interesting changes to the
patch notes
, including one I've been waiting for for a long time—it appears that meeting stones no longer have a maximum level requirement. Anyone above level 15 can be summoned by any meeting stone. It also appears that 71-80 battlegrounds now reward a small number of arena points. Veeeeery interesting...
Edit:
Looks like they've adjusted that line in the patch notes. It now says "All level 71-80 Battleground daily quests will now award 25 Arena points in addition to their current rewards."
