Where you hear it

peonready1.ogg is the line a newly trained peon spoke in Warcraft III when it appeared at the great hall. It announced that a fresh worker was ready to gather gold and lumber. The WoW client carries the line along with the rest of the peon voice set. As a ringtone it seems to answer the phone for you. It is about a second long.

TriggerA peon voice line; in Warcraft III it played when a newly trained peon appeared.

Over a text, a one-second announcement registers instantly and is hard to confuse with a stock phone chime.
