Here's a new wrinkle on the exploit.

You keep the buff on any character that's maxxed on VP and logged out 
in Timeless Isle.

I now have two 90s, Vamlock and Vamoose. The latter is my main, the
former my new 'lock.

Last week, VL got VP maxxed, and both got the buff. Last night, I
logged both of them out in the TI inn. This morning, I logged in 
on VM, and had the buff.

The interesting point here is that there's a 200 VP weekly quest on TI.
This is much easier to complete if you already have the buff, and
if you keep it and the buff over reset, is an instant 300 VP start to the 
next week. 

I'm going to be alternating which toon does the day-after-reset
grind, and get the 200 VP quest on the other one, holding it completed
until after reset. 

Both toons still max out each week, but at a lower time spent. I *do*
lose 1000 timeless coins on one each week, but that's tolerable.
