A work colleague who is into WOW is leaving. The usual rubbish presents have been suggested but I wanted to persuade our HR lady to get him something that he would really appreciate.

Any suggestions?

Scratch that... a real night elf.

Fuck it... get him a hooker with pointy ears.

mmmm that would involve asking him for his character etc... kind of gives the game away. Excellent idea for a leaving card though..

It could have got a lot worse. EG must still be tired.

Thanks for the (sparse) advice. Some good ideas in there...

Exactly. Most of us only really wake up when we get to the second bottle of Whisky at about 13:00.

there's a guy that professionally sketches your wow character. Makes it super realistic and stuff.

FHUTA?

sorry.

What about that company that would actually make a real model of your WOW character? It was that Ed Fries guy that set it up originally, but I think he's moved on now. FigurePrints, they're called.

EDIT: Actually, scratch that, they don't do Europe. Cunts.

Is he Alliance?

Is he Horde?

Is he good at delegating?

How about a 16-slot Mooncloth Bag?
