So, I'm quest-grinding a bit before bed, as I wasn't particularly sleepy for some reason and I am sent to collect 20 spider eyes. The first spider yields one eye, so I assume the other was burned beyond recognition and/or usefulness. This is a relatively common WoW occurrence, and I didn't think much of it. At least, until my second kill. This spider dropped 3 eyes. Now, there are a few things that came to mind here:
1. There is something freaky in the water in Azeroth. I mean, shit is being born with more eyes than they should have. I might get this checked out, but while I do so, please only drink Conjured Water. Trust me.
2. There is some sort of barter system going on between the spiders. I don't know exactly what they would be trading for; spiders are not known for a system of private property per se. However, it seems to make sense that they would trade their eyes. I mean, it would be a relatively useful commodity to have an extra eye. Maybe some higher level economic analysis is in order.
3. Eye Thievery!!!! Ow.
I guess I'll ponder that while I go to bed. On second thought, maybe not...
May all your hits be crits,
B

I'd just like to comment that your first two sentences were really confusing out of context, and I was relieved to discover that you were merely discussing WoW.
Also, spiders usually have eight eyes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spider#Sense_organs), so a yield of three eyes is relatively unimpressive, unless WoW only has spiders of the Caponiidae family (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caponiidae), which typically only have two eyes.
I'll stop now. :-P
