Around Azeroth: A thousand and one dailies
Jacob has used his flying carpet and the spires of Dalaran to do the obvious - imitate the Disney version of Aladdin. I've got to say that I can barely remember that movie or the songs, but the SNES game left an indelible impression on me. Or, more accurately, my flying carpet made an indelible impression on the walls of every cavern in that little sixteen-bit nightmare. When we look back fondly at the old-school video games, we tend to forget the dire lack of save points. Or were we just young enough to be considered noobs?
An update on yesterday's post: Today I received zero dead-gold-seller e-mails! Hooray! I did get one picture showing that some players have adopted the gold seller tactics, however - a group of trolls on Jubei'thos had died to spell out "SAVE WG".
Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see them on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@gmail.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, gold seller ads with dead gnomes, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.

I remember the Aladdin game fondly. The magic carpet and the snake Jafar levels were by far my favorite. But man did that genie level take forever.
The gameboy color Aladdin game? Now THAT was hard.

Coincidentally I actually surpassed 1001 dailies last Friday. Woot me!

HAH! The song from the start of the TV Series. ^_^

I can show you the world,
With my amazing Title,
I'm Tyrason The Explorer,
And I've been so far and wide,
A WHOLE NEW WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORLD!
(I'd like to point out that I don't use "The Explorer" as my title no more.)
I'd go on but I can't remember the lines.

A super NES game being referred to as "old school"? Man, I'm either older than I thought, or the author is younger than I thought. I'm guessing it's a little of both.

Very nice picture! I love the vibrant colors in this one, but I still gotta say that Draenei males with turbans look the best on the flying carpets :-)
