No it didn't, it ended today at 2 a.m. in the morning. o_O

I'm gonna laugh if you went back an hour a week early.

ಠ_ಠ ...

Besides that, we'll most likely get some sort of response tomorrow since it's the beginning of the work week.

I noticed that the other day when RTS's guide said the Mad King would show up until Nov 2nd and he didn't show up when he was suppose to on Saturday.

The states went back a week after everyone else that observes daylight savings. Slow coaches

I was seriously pissed when I logged on earlier, went to click on bobby...only to find no bobby. This makes me as happy as an enema (and, to be clear, I do not have an enema fetish).

Actually he showed up on Friday and every 3 hours for 24 hours. Depending on where you were that would mean up to 7am Saturday in Europe or until midnight PDT in the US. I Think he was there when he shoulda been...

Why do I get the feeling this is going to come down to some discrepancy as to what Anet meant by Midnight Nov.2, and eventually lead to a debate over what constitutes as an official next day, involving infinitely small numbers, limits, and a whole lot of calculus?

This, from the the GW Web site, should clear up any confusion about when it was supposed to end:
Quote:
The ghoul-apalooza begins on October 24th and runs until 11:59 p.m. Pacific time on November 2nd, in both the Tyrian port of [[Lion's Arch]] and the Elonian port of [[Kamadan]]. Mad King Thorn will appear in both places multiple times, always preceded by his undead horsemen and accompanied by his entourage of nightmarish cohorts. Participate in any of his appearances and you’ll earn a special piece of holiday event headgear.
So, yeah. They ended it a bit prematurely.

Since when did we ever see an event end on a Saturday? They always seem to end at 12 am Pacific time on a Sunday.


It was probably a programming error and it should be fixed since I'm only 53 party points away from the max title.

Bring back Bobby and the CB!

That was a typo which I corrected earlier.

The festivities are disappearing this way is because the event is ending. It doesn't necessarily mean when everything is set to be turned to normal that everything would go poof. It wasn't like that when it all began. The outposts were changed, but it took time to get everything else in there, including the horseman traders. The same thing is happening now with the treats and some npcs disappearing. Everything is reversing to the outposts natural state. It was expected to me at least.

Since it ended early, I think it's only fair that they start the event over.
