Today I'm actually not here, as I'm somewhere in the wilds of the midwest fending off wild animals and avoiding scary red necks with big guns. Hopefully I'll make it back in one piece!
Anyways, I have a little game that I constructed for you to play as a team. Your mission, should you choose to accept it is to answer the following questions using the information found within the hundreds of posts on the blog.
For some this will prove a real challenge, so I'm asking that you comment with the answers and try to get them all done before I get back from my trip on Tuesday evening. Looking forward to reading how far you got!
Here are the questions, all answers can be found in previous posts or comments:
1. According to Hokiejaybee, what is Markco's RP brother's name?
2. Who is hoarding frostweave in sholozar basin?
3. What can you farm in durotar at level 9 for lots of easy gold?
4. Can you name the numbers in the XX/XX Rule?
5. What can be combined with Draenic Water to produce an item that often vendors for more than the mats required to make it?
6. When is the "Black" time period for bidding?
7. What is the #1 gold maker on the neutral auction house?
8. Which is better use of your gold according to my math, a guild bank or a normal bank full of 16 slotters?
9. Can you fill in the numbers that Bitwise uses for his auctioneer scans?

10. Gevlon: High population servers have many businessmen, covering lot of fields, but not all.
There are materials that are not produced/buy-and-sold by anyone. Find them and use them. You can also pick a market and try to take it by force. You can win since a richer competitor can easily say "this field does not worth my time to fight, I let that noob have it"
