    Every week, just at the start of the weekend, we catch up with the WoW Insider staff and ask them, "What are you playing this week?" -- otherwise known as: WRUP. Join us to see what we're up to in and out of game -- and catch us in the comments to let us know what you're playing, too! What can you do in a single minute? Quite a bit, really. You can run the full Double Dare obstacle course, human hamster wheel included. You can watch all the best parts of an episode of Maury. And, if you're a writer here at WoW Insider, you can use that single minute to respond to the weekly WRUP email, telling all your fans and readers exactly what you're up to in the World of Warcraft. I guess Tyler Caraway didn't have that minute. A lesser WRUP compiler may have let such an offense slide. But not this one. You see, dear reader, there's a new sheriff in town. And when you don't fill out WRUP, I fill it out for you.

    Hey there, Canada. We've been told Boxing Day is a special day for consumerism for you guys -- something like the equivalent of Black Friday here in the US. Our Canadian comrade at X3F thought to remind us, and additionally pointed us towards the sales papers for several major Canadian retailers: Best Buy Future Shop Walmart Toys R Us HMV (Thanks, Tom) Additionally, we've got a list of deals Amazon Canada (after the break). Highlights include $28 off limited editions of Fable 2 and Gears of War 2, $40 off Spore: Galactic Edition, $20 off Grand Theft Auto IV for PS3 and -- here's the kicker -- $10 off Legendary! (We'll take 3, please.) Sale starts 3:00AM ET on Friday, December 26 and ends 2:59AM ET Saturday morning.... US readers, are you still here? We figured you might be. There's an accessories deal going on right now until January 10, with at least 10% off all listed items. Highlights include DualShock 3 for $41, Xbox 360 wireless controller for $37, Wii component cables for $15 and Guitar Hero 3 Les Paul wireless guitars (Xbox 360 and Wii) for $40.
