Since its one per server per account this will require a massive number of people to participate in measuring anything but the shortest distances.

If you have ever visited Ironforge you'll have come to the same conclusion that I have. There are far too many drunken Dwarves and pirate-themed Gnomes sitting in the tavern's and laying on the floor of the Inn's! So I propose that the next universal unit of measurement in Azeroth should be to get these lazy drunkards off the floor and put them to good use! So we of the alliance call in for as many Gryphon's as possible from Stormwind because the other productive Gnomes and I are not strong enough to pick some of these Dwarves up off the ground

1 ½ unit's of Gnome = 1 unit of Dwarf

or 3 unit's of Gnome = 2 unit's of Dwarf

which for the moment, we will call this standard unit of measurement 1 Gnawf.

How many Gnawf's would it take to get from Ironforge to Stormwind City?

Next unit of measurements:

Breaths of Sindragosa (Dangers include: Icy winds consuming your soul and feeling the cold hand of death upon your heart)

Well obviously the best measurement is for time, how long it takes one Goblin to grab one Gold piece from a travelers pocket.

Also doubles for distance. "Well it took that Goblin twenty minutes to run to the traveler and attempt to sell him some random knicknack, so we can assume that it would take an average Human about 10 minutes running."

I would measure it on the total amount of GCD!

 

let me explain:

You cast a non-moving instant spell (lets say a renew from priests, or an hot from druids. thunderclap from warrior, and so on..), and you are only able to move ( and by move, no spells like blink or usage of mounts) during the GCD! lets see how many GCD you need to walk from one point to an other.

A measurement simply known in everyday use as 'Khadgars', though there may also be a formal, more standardised term. 'Khadgars' is the distance supposedly all-powerful, world-shattering NPCs of Azeroth (such as Khadgar, Velen, Illidan) maintain from any decisive battle, letting others do the dirty work. Examples:

'I was way out of range of the spell, like, 2 Khadgars away!'

'There's no need to have a break now, we've only got quarter of a Khadgars to go.'

'We were somewhere around half a Khadgar away from Tanaris on the edge of the desert when the mana gems began to take hold.'

      War Within Alpha should be just around the corner! When do we expect the latest expansion testing to start?
      If you've been keeping an eye on the World of Warcraft 2024 roadmap, you're likely excited about what's coming up! According to the roadmap, the War Within Alpha is expected to kick off sometime after Patch 10.2.6, which was released two weeks ago, and before the beginning of Season 4.

      Typically, a season lasts 22 weeks. Right now, we're in the 20th week of Season 3, with just about two weeks left. Let's break down the hypothetical timeline:
      Season 3 Week 20: Week of March 26 Season 3 Week 21: Week of April 2 Season 3 Week 22: Week of April 9 Season 4 Week 1: Week of April 15 This schedule suggests that the War Within Alpha could potentially launch as early as next week or during the week of April 9.
      The most recent news from the War Within camp came on March 27, when Blizzard rolled out a fresh encrypted internal build on the WoW Dev CDN. The internal builds are becoming more and more frequent which indicates Blizzard's ramping up to start testing in the very near future.
      Placeholder for tweet 1772901807448052151 In the meantime, we encourage you to check out everything coming in the War Within pre-patch that will release 1 month before the actual expansion.

      Executive Producer Holly Longdale teased some upcoming experimental PvE-focused content that Blizzard will soon reveal to the community.
      It appears that Plunderstorm isn't the only new mode Blizzard plans to add to WoW this year.
      Holly Longdale today teased an upcoming PvE-oriented event that will soon be revealed to us. Holly might be talking about the "Timerunning Pandamonium," expected in Patch 10.2.7.

      Greetings Citizens of Azeroth,
      It’s been great seeing so many players taking the plunge into Plunderstorm and we’ve loved seeing all of the stories and feedback as this experimental event evolves. It will be exciting to see some of the community content creators going head-to-head as duos during the Plunderstorm Creator Royale on March 30!  This isn’t the end of the things we want to try in World of Warcraft, however, and we have more in store we can’t wait to show you.
      Dragonflight Season 4 is in route as testing begins on the PTR and we’ll have more news to share soon™ on the next experiment we have up our sleeves. We hope those of you who are looking for PvE focused content will enjoy what we’re planning, all while we continue to press forward on development of our next expansion for World of Warcraft— The War Within.
      We can’t wait to share with you all the many things the team has been hard at work on.
      With gratitude and excitement for what we’ll do together next,
      Holly Longdale
