7:00

WOW. that was an incredible video. i really wonder what is going to top that. going to feature that on WoWFlix without a doubt once I find it and blizzcon stuff calmns down.
7:07
aaaaaand some band is onstage playing ambient music. this contest thing is really unorganized.
7:11

7:21
so the first dancers are terrible. tauren male. lamo
7:21
the live music is good though
7:22
WHY ARE THEY STILL GOING. JUST END IT NOW
7:24
i dont know how i feel about this new format for the dance contest. the live music is super epic, but these dances aren’t good enough to warrant 30 second segments.
7:24
oh no. its the lady gnome from the mailbox thing
7:25
i dont think this actually the female gnome dance. but she did just do a split
7:26
troooololololo female coming
7:28
male troll from sacramento is doing alright. certainly tops the others even though he tripped up a little
7:30
dwarf female dances are quite good. best so far
7:32
huge group of people. im guess blood elf male coming
7:33
NOEP. orc male
7:34
LMAO. the third guy is clearly a DDR player
7:39

7:39

7:41

7:43
oooo worgen male. didnt know that was allowed.
7:46
