In-game alarm

I like to play WoW for an hour or two some days before I go to work, but sometimes I play with headphones in or get really immersed while playing that sometimes I play for too long and end up being late for work/school/etc. I was just thinking it'd be a neat feature to have an alarm in-game that you could set up a message to show up on your screen at a time you determine, like at 3:30 have it pop up in the middle of your screen like a raid warning saying "Get ready for work!"

You can click on the clock on the mini-map and set an alarm just like you mentioned. It's an often overlooked feature, but it's there. There's even a stopwatch you can set as well.

But will it do my laundry?


No. Sadly not. :(
