What can you see on the poll? Are there options or the results?

Options are there for different times. There just don't seem to be any checkbox or button to select one.

Will ask for someone to look into it. Can you screenshot what you see?

It's not clear to me whether I am to "run" this route on foot or mounted, can you please clarify?  Thank you.

On foot obviously. Check out the main post for more details and good luck!

How to Enter

With the information that has been spreading through datamining and now on the beta servers, it's obvious something big is brewing for the home city of the Night Elves, so our contest will be sending you to Darnassus! In order to enter, you will need to have a level 1 Night Elf and bring it to Darnassus - specifically, The Howling Oak.

Rules

  • Do not use any speed enhancement buffs, gear or mounts. You should complete the route at the running speed of a Level 1 Night Elf (any class) in their starter gear.

To be clear, with heirlooms, you can mount up at level 1, hence the request for clarification.

"You do not have permission to vote in this poll, or see the poll results." not sure if its locked for fresh reg or it is just to hide the result to keep the answer hidden?

The latter; your vote is still counted.

Just have to mention... yesterday the votes were not visible despite having voted... now it is... so anyone that enters the contest and selects a random answer (without caring to do the run) can then see and enter the correct one and resubmit...  I thought the point of having hidden votes was to prevent that?  Not trying to be a pain... just wondering why they changed this... makes it ki

Thanks for your report. This is definitely not intentional and we're looking into it.

Thanks so much for the quick reply and timely fix.  I know I more than gladly ran this three times to ensure my time was on point but can't say I wasn't just  a a little bit disgruntled coming back to see that that those who want to take advantage, could.  Especially after seeing the amount of keys people are selling now for astronomical prices -.-.  Contests like these that ACTUALLY require user participation is how it SHOULD be :) A

As far as those concerned about the "You do not have permission to vote in this poll, or see the poll results" message I am pretty much 100% sure this is to prevent people from trying to take advantage and not change their submissions after seeing the correct answer after voting.  They have mentioned it a few times in earlier posts.... and as you can see I made a post showing that for some reason it was now allowing users to see others' votes. This was most likely the only solution they had. I don't work here or anything.... just trying to help. I'm sure if its necessary for us participants who entered early to resubmit, they will let us know.  Good luck!

We needed a "quick fix" to sort out an issue with results displaying incorrectly to users that hadn't voted due to an update to the forums that this is hosted on. If you see that message, you have voted.

Yep, exactly. It was the fastest thing we could do to fix things, since we didn't want people getting an easy answer in while we worked on a proper fix.

But why "You do not have permission to vote in this poll, or see the poll results."

Quoting myself from above:

When do we know who won?

We will be sorting winners and contacting them over the next few days. We'll need to first sort out any rule-breaking entries, then look at winners.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      How to Get the Spirit of Eche'ro Mount
      1. Download MapCoords or some other add-os that displays coordinates in the game.
      2. Teleport to Azsuna from the Stormwind/Orgrimmar Portal Room or use your Dalaran Hearthstone to reach Dalaran (Legion) if you have one in your inventory.
      3. Seek out Archaeology Trainer Dariness the Learned in Dalaran at 41,26 and learn Archaeology if you already haven't.
      4. Accept The Right Path quest from the Archaeology Trainer and make your way to Thunder Totem in Highmountain.

      Hurry up! You only have until August 21, 2024, to get the mount!

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
