Anyone merging their account to a [Battle.net](http://Battle.net) should not forget to pick up their battle bot pet. [http://www.mountaindewgamefuel.com/#/home](http://www.mountaindewgamefuel.com/#/home) Click on the button in the lower right hand corner and follow instructions. The pet was the only reason why I merged my accounts but now with the authenication issues I am glad I did. Also on [Battle.net](http://Battle.net)’s FAQ page Blizz says that eventually they are going to force everyone to merge their accounts so you might as well do it now so you can get the pet. ---

Follow in his path or forever be damned into eternal flames! **twilly80** – welcome to the Boards. I’m not entirely clear where you’re coming from with these posts. If you’re joking, you probably need to add a smiley or two because the joke isn’t coming across. If you’re truly witnessing, please go to Great Debates to do so, this isn’t the right place. If you’re giving **Shot From Guns** a hard time because you find that amusing for some reason, please cease and desist, that’s not appropriate behavior anywhere on these Boards. twickster, Game Room moderator ---

I got mine the day the pets were first available (and, indeed, merged my account with [Battle.net](http://Battle.net) precisely to obtain it). However, I only got this particular pet because it added to the number I had already. To be honest, I’ll probably never actually pull it out. There are much cooler pets I’d rather run with, after all! ---

Hey, speaking of Mages, I just created one in Azeroth I named **Onestëëz**. Did I get those e’s right so y’all can sound it out? If I didn’t, and the name makes no sense, let me just add that **Minimum** and **Maximum** were taken, dammit! 🙂 Q ---

There are much cooler pets I’d rather run with, after all! I went ahead and did the thing to get the pet, then logged in my main, and there it was in the mailbox. Then I wondered, “How did it know which character to send it to?” I was surprised to find out that every single one of my 26 toons got one. Now I need to figure out this “fuel” thing. ---

You get fuel by going back to the Game Fuel website and signing in. I think you may have to do something like click a button but I don’t remember. I only got the pet to have it as an extra number for the pet achievements. ---

Heh. I also decided to spend a crapload of money and buy myself a [Titansteel Destroyer](http://www.wowhead.com/?item=41257) and a [Brilliant Titansteel Helm](http://www.wowhead.com/?item=41388). And the Dalaran fishing bag gave me the [Bone Fishing Pole](http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45991). As mentioned earlier, it’s inferior to the Kalu’ak pole I already have, but still cool to get 😃 ---

I had a good day fishing, too! I got the fishing hat in the fishing bag, so no more spending money on lures. Then, I discovered a fishing bot. Well, I noticed him YESTERDAY, fishing in a strange corner of Lake Indu’le, with no schools of fish in sight. Then I saw him again today in the exact same corner. Then, when I went to list my Dragonfins in the AH, there was only one other seller - and they were all HIM. Of course, I reported him. Then went back to fishing… …and fished up my Sea Turtle! And, of course everyone in the guild is jealous.
