Just thrilling. The demand for glyphs was precisely what we all hoped it would be, and I swooped in and took advantage.
True to form, I didn't pull down as much gold as some of my compatriots whose exploits I've been following. Still, with 311,000 gold in my guild bank and a good number of glyphs remaining in my bags, I'm 66,000 gold ahead of where I was when the servers went down on Tuesday morning. 71,000, really, because I spent 4K on Master Flying and 1K regemming my warlock.
I know I'm out of some of the more popular glyphs, but it's all good. As soon as nothing's selling, I'll craft more. For now, I'm content to post, cancel, collect, and repost. I'm using a 1c undercut and posting 4 glyphs at a time, with (and this is the key to my success, I believe) a 27g threshold. The philosophy is that at some point enough of a given type of glyph will sell out sufficiently to allow me to list mine at 27g. So, I'm not even looking at what's selling or trying to buy out the few glyphs that are listed at 8g or 10g. I'm greedy, but not THAT greedy ;-)
Do I wish I'd hauled in more than 300K like some of the people on other servers? Do I wish that I'd realized that the Glyph of Mage Armor exists but can't be made and listed mine for 350g each? Do I wish I had prepared more and made 3 stacks of every type of glyph and had 10,000 inks left over? Most definitely. But I've done all of this while still maintaining my normal life and playstyle, so I'll take my 60K gold and live with it.
Hope your Glyphmas is still going strong!

279K in the guild bank
Plus 4000 I already spent on super-duper flying for my paladin. Yes indeed, life is good.

245K in my guild bank
Glad I didn't go to GDKP on Sunday.
Let's see how much cash I bring in tomorrow. I'll probably be on my AH toons all night.

244K in my guild bank
Just ran out of Ink of the Sea after making 20 of each glyph for 6 classes. Underpreparing FTL.

227K in the guild bank
Not much to say. Got paid to get my 25 Kingslayer (awesome GDKP FTW). Mail BOEs seem impossible to sell. More on this later.

215K in the bank (gold capped again!)
No real update. Glyphs suck; I've moved my threshold progressively higher and I'm listing fewer and fewer of them. (It's north of 6g per glyph now and occasionally I'll go to list and QA will put up fewer than 10. C'est la vie.)
I've been turning a profit on my GDKP runs so that's good, but I'm sure it's annoying since I'm doing relatively low dps. I'd be fine with not securing an invitation in the future; I'm so ready to just sit back and wait for the cataclysm to hit. I'm not even doing the weekly raid quests unless I'm completely bored; it still feels like grinding for those primordial saronites.
Still, this weekend I am planning to revisit some old content, maybe snag a mount or two, and push toward a quarter million gold.

200K in the bank
We're in full liquidation mode here, minus purchasing cheap herbs and saronite whenever we get a chance. Next stop: gold cap (again).
