There’s not a lot of news this weekend, but this video floating around the web is causing enough stir to deserve a post all on it’s own. If you were at Blizzcon then you already saw it – the complete destruction of the best guild in the game by Hogger – or the steroid infused, resurrected, uber powerful version of Hogger that Blizzard cooked up just for them.

Today, well last night, the Armory was taken down to help ease server load for today’s BlizzCon ticket sales chaos. So, with the servers ready, today at 10 a.m. BlizzCon tickets went on sale and 30 minutes later they where promptly sold out!

So I just got my email stating that the contest begins today. Basically you can get “tokens” for all sorts of things on the website and from drinking Mountain Dew (of course). Each token is one entry into the drawing where prizes are given out every 15 minutes. The prizes are from the typical Warcraft sponsors (Jinx, Razor, and Alienware).

Earlier today MMOC showed a new in-game pet datamined from the new PTR game files and speculated that it might be the BlizzCon present for attending.

Today Blizzard announced  the dates for the next installment of BlizzCon. Below is the press release with details:
