Ok, so here's the proof! And yes!, that is over 11,000 gold!! Whoot!!

Come over to the public test realm!!

Here's how to do it:

1st goto the WoW website and download the PTR client here's the link:

2nd Copy your toon over! Here's the link:

Double click on the Blizzard Updater Icon and its a self install

After that your good to go!

I know some of you think I cant be bothered to wait to have my toon copied...but it doesnt take as long as you might think...

Give it a try! and Join me! Its lonely over there with none of my good friends to try things out with.

What can you look forward to??

How about improved Battle Grounds, new areas to explore, like Stormwind Harbor! New talents for the WoTLK expansion! New profession: Inscription!

How about getting a haircut or a shave in the barber shop?

Tons of new stuff including Acheivements!! It's alot of fun and will give you a jump start on winning that 5000g prize in our contest!

Ok, so here are a few drawbacks....No Northrend *cry*, no Death Knights and the amount of precious time it will take to copy your toon and download the client.

But I say that the pluses far outweigh the minuses!! Give it a try and lets have some fun!!

I was required to change my name for the PTR, you may need too to. If you do join me, I'm listed as NBK.

Cheers!

UPDATE!! The WoW website now says it will take an average of 3 hours to copy your character to the Public Test Realm. So now it won't take any time at all......so let's all go!
