Make sure to visit TeamSpeak, the Forums and IRC also for themed versions of the usual events, and who knows what else they will be offering!? (In-game announcements will alert you to upcoming events.)
Introducing: The [Neverendless Doubloon]
Also, you might have heard rumors of our upcoming change in the way event rewards are handled. Starting this weekend, all events will award [Neverendless Doubloon]s, to be used at the soon-to-arrive Event Vendors which will be available in Shattrath City. A full list of offerings will be coming soon, but for the moment let me summarize by saying we will offer there gear, mounts, companions, fun items and extras such as gold, [Wintergrasp Commendation]s, Emblems and more. [Neverendless Doubloon]s will bind to your account and can therefore be transferred between characters on the same account by in-game mail. They will not be transferable to any other account, so please participate in events with a character on the account where you need [Neverendless Doubloon]s.
We hope that the introduction of this new event reward system will be exciting and will allow you to make better use of your event rewards by allowing greater choice and flexibility as well as allowing you to more easily gear up / trick out your lower level characters. Enjoy!
EDIT by Development Team:
I'd just like to clarify that Neverendless Doubloons are not replacing Ticket Vouchers, we're keeping both of them. The Doubloons are awarded in a completely different way to the Vouchers and have different rewards.
Doubloons are given instead of 'your choice of reward' from Staff-run events, so you can pick your own reward from the vendor.
Vouchers drop randomly from NPCs during some special events, so you can save up and purchase different rewards from a different vendor.
