Citizen Azeroth: Rep Experiment 2 - Phase 3 Complete

As of this morning, I completed Phase 3, consisting of:

Zones: Ashenvale, Stonetalon, Thousand Needles, and Tarren Mill
Instances: Blackfathom Deeps, Razorfen Kraul, and Gnomeregan

Tarren Mill was a little challenging because I had to stop at all quests taking me into Alterac Mountains or Arathi Highlands. Those are going to be part of Phase 4.

Level at the end of phase 3: 36 (25% into level)
Number of quests completed to date: 514

Reputation levels: All player races revered:
Darkspear: 8092/21000
Orgrimmar: 15986/21000
Silvermoon: 5063/21000
Thunder Bluff: 13413/21000
Undercity: 13778/21000

Preliminary conclusions: I am not going to be Exalted with any Horde factions prior to my mid-40s.

Other factions:
Ratchet: Friendly (4797/6000)
All other goblin factions: Friendly (905/6000)

One thing I found out using a mod called "Reputation Monitor" that shows, in chat, the sympathetic reputation from all quests if you get it, that Goblin sympathetic reputation works somewhat differently than player sympathetic reputation. Since I started using it, I show that you get 50% sympathetic reputation for the goblin factions, as opposed to 25% for player factions. This may not be for all quests, but it has been true lately.

I also earned 1200/3000 reputation with the Argent Dawn by doing a quest line in Blackfathom Deeps. Go figure.

As a rogue, I did the broken Ravenholdt quests up to the point where I became 49/6000 Friendly with them, and am now 30775/36000 Hated with The Syndicate. Imagine my horror at having them hate me (you'll have to). I'm also hated with Bloodsail Buccaneers, probably by virtue of having talked to a goblin or two in Booty Bay.

So, today I start Phase 4. My plan for Phase 4 is as follows:

Zones: Alterac Mountains, Arathi Highlands, Desolace, Stranglethorn Vale (probably in that order)
Instances: Razorfen Kraul, Scarlet Monastery
