Random is still random even after a server crash.
Original Post:
I appreciate that I'm probably going to get attacked for posting this anecdotal information, but I figured it may be of some use to some of you guys working on this.

During massive server issues on Sunday night on Frostmourne (multiple world server down/instance server down/server restart) there were 4 guilds inside Black Temple actively raiding. Three of these continued on after the server sorted itself, and the 2 Horde guilds both got a Mainhand Warglaive off Illidan whilst the Alliance guild hand an offhand drop.

Fast foward tonight and the 4th guild, being mine, kill Illidan and in the process get an offhand Warglaive thus making me a very happy rogue but also left me trying to figure out the incredibly low chances of having 4 Warglaives drop in one reset with the seeming coincidence of them going to the 4 guilds that were doing BT when the massive server disruption occured.

Perhaps its just a massive coincidence and a case of random numbers being random, just seemed strange to me.
