Seems like I have to go for that once in the future.  Sounds fun. :)

Atm I'm busy with mount farming.  Got Onyxia in second attempt the other 
day.  230/250 mounts and I still havent got many of the crafted mounts 
from engineering (3), tailoring (2 or 3) and jc (5).  When I make those 
I should be around 240.
ICC, Uld, Al'Akir, firelands, dragon soul, stone core and ZG is on farm 
on 6 toons + I need a few from 3-4 factions, claw farming in Tanaan etc. :)

Yeah, I need to get round to it for myself sometime, though I don't
much fancy that arcanite farm again, ouch. I've done Sulfuras,
Val'anyr, Dragonwrath and the MoP cloak so far, and currently stuck on
a group-required bit of the Shadowmourne chain (decided I should lvl
the character up a bit to aid survivability since he kept dying on
previous attempts but haven't got that far). Would be fun to have a
full set of legendaries eventually, so when I factionchange my rogue
I'll need to get him onto the daggers quest and maybe farming Black
Temple too, also need to take my hunter to Sunwell more often :-)

Grats! Still working on that one but I'm kinda lazy recently and don't
always get round to it each week hehe. Maybe one day she'll drop it...

Nice, I'm on 226 at present but I've got all the crafted ones I think,
only the annoying raid drop ones left to farm. Plus some of the meta
achievements, usually I'm left with one achievement that requires a
group, sigh... need to get in a social mood and look in group finder
for others doing them :-)

Just FYI, the Stonecore one drops on normal, so you can binge farm it
on one character if you want; that's how I got it :-) Only restriction
is 10 instances per hour! Think it's the same with the Vortex Pinnacle
one, I've not got round to that one yet. Still need mounts in all the
places you've named, plus VoA, but I tend to burn out if I go
overboard on the farming so I just do 2-3 a week most the time,
depends on my mood. Friend of mine was doing ICC on 10 characters
every week, after the mount finally dropped he disappeared for months,
I think burnout for sure... ;-)

Have a feeling I won't be getting that glowy green drake till next
expanion sometime lol, and forget that new cloud serpent for 300!

10 attempts in less than 18 mins.  59 attempts so far.  Next char.  I'll 
use my shammy, rogue and kitty druid for it.  Almost instant aoe and 
fast pace too.
The deroute to Deepholm is a time-sink in my daily activities.  But I 
also need the raptor in ZG.  Too bad this instance cant be reset as the 
mount only drops on hc.

I think the 10 instances per hour is accountwide, could be wrong
though! That said if you have 2 accounts, it doesn't carry over to the
other one so that'd be 20 tries per hour :-)

I parked a couple of less-used characters outside the entrance and
just logged them in once a day for some time, only got one of the
mounts before those alts started doing other things though, I need to
move some new alts over there :-) Got the raptor eventually but still
missing the panther... one day!

Youre right. :/

I do garrison and ship missions on 6 chars every day so I need to do the 
traveling to ZG no matter what.  I have other non100 chars around that 
can do ZG too.  But I just want a quick in-nuke boss-loot-out tour.
But I also do the account-wide pet battle daily quests in Eastern 
Kingdom for leveling other chars on my kitty druid so ZG is just a short 
stop on the way to Booty Bay.

I still need to make the three engineer mounts.  But..  244/250 atm. 
The Kodo from Coren Direnbrew dropped yesterday.  The last of two mounts 
from last boss in Dragon Soul dropped this very morning on my brandnew 
lvl100 monk.  So now I only have to farm up to Ultraxion.  Thats good. 
I was getting tired of the ship boss and spinewing fight.
154 attempts on armored razzashi raptor in ZG and 180ish attempts on the 
Vitreous mount in Stonecore.

Wow, that's great! 229 here and not too many more easy ones; I have
all the craftables and only miss a couple of rep ones, so I need to
get round to farming raids more often. Luck has never been something I
have much of, either...

Ooh congrats! I've only done that place a couple of times and no luck
yet, probably not surprising! That spine fight is really annoying, not
hard once you know how, but annoying. I'll probably start doing it
when my rogue hits 100, and have a go at the legendary daggers while
I'm at it.

Ouch :-( Got both of those at just over 100 tries, still trying for
the ZG panther though.

True.  Once I mastered it I still had minor problems with it.  I found 
this _very_ useful macro that counts the nameplates on your screen so I 
dont have to count the nameplates anymore:

/run local count = 0 for i = 0, 10000, 1 do if _G["NamePlate"..i] ~= nil 
and _G["NamePlate"..i]:IsVisible() then count = count + 1 end end 
print(count)

I also use this macro in the first phase on Yogg-Saron.  Pretty usable 
macro imho.  I sometimes also use it in battlegrounds like Ashran to see 
if we're outnumbered or so.
Be sure to have activated nameplates ofc. :)

Yay congrats! I need to go there again, still not got it, although I

Thank you.  So I understand you have it too? :)  That toy should be a 
very rare drop according to mmo and wowhead.  Which matching pet is it?

Nope, but I have the staff and the consumable seeds you can loot in
the raid (unique 5 so they don't last long!), so I can get the effect,
would rather have the toy though! Does indeed seem a rare chance so I
suspect I'll have a long wait when I only rarely visit...

Cinder Kitten - http://www.wowhead.com/item=92707/cinder-kitten , it's
a store pet but if I remember rightly my bf gave it me as a present
soon after it came out, it's one of the cutest pets they've done so
worth the money for me :-)

Stonecore 229 attempts before the vitreous wallah dropped.  Finally.  I 
was 249/250 before I got it, but I was still 249/250 after that.  I know 
the mountacular achievement sometimes has some troubles with updating 
the number of mounts.  But this seriously bugged me as I REALLY REALLY 
REALLY wanted to screenshot the ach announcement!
So I loaded a few other chars until I realized I was credited silently 
for the 250th mount.  No announcement, no nothing.  Annoying.

Anyway.  I've got a brandnew felfire hawk. :)

Yeah, half the time when I check it's 58-59k...  I just refuse to pay
that much, even though I'm not rich in RL terms, at least that price
stays the same, with the gold price my mindset feels that the 25k the
US players were paying is the "fair" rate, and us being over double
that is a total ripoff... I could just about stomach 40k, but pushing
60k? No way.

Lower active player pool == higher prices?

Could be, and more people thinking they don't play enough for it to be
worth RL money so they'll pay gold instead? Plus it's so easy to make
gold that less people are wanting to buy it now there's nothing much
to spend it on. Probably a combination of several factors, wish the
prices would head back down though, it's very much outside the range
I'm willing to pay these days.

I make around 15-20k/week on 7 chars (6 fully upgraded garrisons, maxed 
out on followers and gear, 6 L3 harbours etc).  1 newly dinged 100 char 
is still leveling up followers and all that stuff.  If I also do 
Firelands 25N and Dragon Soul 10HC on all 7 chars I get an additional 
~25k gold.  I put any xmog I get from the crates at the salvage yard in 
a guild bank as it seems we wont have a garrison in Legions.  So 
hopefully the prices on xmogs will go a bit up again.
Also.  I sell every honor and legion item I get from the garrison 
missions.  The honor item usually goes for 11-17k on AH while the Legion 
medallion goes for 4k atm.
But I definitely dont make the same amount of gold as I made in 6.1 due 
to the crate nerf. :/

25k was a guess.  Its more like 17-18k.  I just ran DS (10HC), FL (25N), 
the raid in Uldum (10N), ICC and Ulduar.  I skipped the last 2 bosses in 
DS.  This netted me ~2600g including vendored stuff.
