WoW's Arena Season 3 delayed until after Thanksgiving

Bad news for you Arena PvPers in World of Warcraft-- while the original plan was to release patch 2.3 yesterday and kick off Arena Season 3 next week, Blizzard CM Drysc says no dice. WoW Insider has the details-- Blizzard wants to wait until Thanksgiving is over in order to have "all available resources" ready for Arena season 3. So it looks like you'll have to stay at the table and tell Grandma just how good her cranberry sauce next Thursday is rather than running off and ganking clothies with your arena team. For the same reasons, the EU launch won't go down until November 28th.

And neither WoW Insider or Drysc says for sure, but I believe this also means the release of Season 1 Arena gear to honor purchases is being pushed back til the same date. Which might not be so bad for some of you-- just means you have more time to hit up those battlegrounds and pick up the honor you need to grab those pieces.
