I had no idea you could tie in the Fishing Extravaganza. My adrenaline was pumping so fast because another person hearthed back at the exact same moment and was lockstep with me as we approached the turn in vendor. We both got third and the achievement though. I would have exploded if I lost by a tenth of a second or something. I think I even could have won first if I hadn't got killed by a roving alliance group at the last minute, but at some level that's true of everyone (and there was actually a lot less pvp going on then I remember/expected from when I used to play). I had no idea they patched it so that you can fish everywhere and not just the coast, that was a nice surprise. Can finally get the Salty achievement, although the Arcanite Pole continues to elude me.
