    Can we get to holiday bosses now?

    I searched a whole bunch for holiday bosses and GetLFDChoiceInfo before posting this question.

    I am curious if anyone good with scripting has been able to see the holiday bosses hidden in the game anywhere by using the GetLFDChoiceInfo command? If they now show up in the LFD tool, then I wonder if we can find them now and select them with a script since they don't show up in the LFD GUI. Or they could possibly be hidden from the whole game until the holiday event kicks off with it's associated dungeon boss. If they do show up can we use a script to join a queue for them?

    Anyway, just wondering, and I could be completely wrong, but I don't know.

    Can we get to holiday bosses now?

    All holiday events are handled by event scripts. That's why WoW doesn't even have to restart. Some holidays it just appears in front of you. The scripts spawn the NPCs, Objects and Vendors. Blizzard uses unix time for spawn, despawn and when to spawn next year again.

    My train of logic was that since they are putting the bosses in their own LFD dungeon in the list even though they will be showing up in currently existing dungeons will they show up in the API as different instance ID, and does that ID show up now?
