"Hopefully you got what you wanted out of that. "
Nope. I wanted the mount. Once again, RNG denied me. The annoyances of RNG are starting to build up and really get in the way of enjoying the game. I don't ask for everything to be handed to me, but I would ask that the effort I put into it influence the RNG to improve my odds over time.

Got that gas mask three times... so annoying.
Would be nice if the stuff you've already won got taken out of the RNG, giving you a better chance of winning the rarer stuff..

I got the neck I wanted, saved me some justice points. My WotLK neck (from conquest points) was the first epic I got at level 80 and I kept it right up to Cataclysm. Wondering I can keep this one for longer than that 14 months.
