You're listening to the Starting Zone, a podcast about World of Warcraft and the people who play it.

And now, here are your hosts.

Well, hello and welcome to the starting zone the podcast about World of

Warcraft, the people who play it today is October 28th.

And my name is Spencer Downey. Thank you so much for listening and subscribing to the podcast.

I'm joined today as always by my co-host Jason Lucas. Jason how are you doing on this fine Monday morning.

Oh Spencer good morning to you yes here we are for another early Monday morning

record trying to get my brain booted up for the week so I'm doing good I just my only regret is that there's really just been

nothing going on around World War Craft this week so like I don't know what we're going to

fill the show with but we'll figure something out we've been doing this a long. I think there is tons to wake your brain up because we had a lot going on this past week, not only in what we did in the game, but also just controversy around the game and how people want to make money about the game and all sorts of craziness

that happened with the game and yeah so let's let's address some of that up front I guess because I think that makes sense.

There was a Brutusaur mount that came out this past week. It cost $90.

As real money or 1.6 million gold depending on which way you did it because you can, and I did explain this on Twitter to some people, you can

can take gold and purchase tokens and when you purchase tokens in game they can

either be exchanged for 30 days of game time or for $15

of battle net balance.

And you can then use those four tokens to buy,

well it would be six tokens,

to buy a Brutusaur mount,

if that's something you wanted to do,

which a lot of people did. And you know how, which a lot of people did.

And you know how I know a lot of people did?
