Gaile said in the past that hats would not be repeated, so as to give the people who were there the first time around something special. You know, like the Dragon Masks everyone always asks to have repeated.
Not exactly sure why they are repeating the Lion Mask. Kinda kills that logic, eh?

I like the crates of fireworks..however...considering we didn't even get a new mask, and the odds of getting a mini pet this year being decreased...
It's disappointing.
Good thing they fixed that horrible game-ruining exploit so now you have to be level5 to do the quests though. You can still have 50 afkers on the rings, but phew, now you can't take advantage of doing the quests more than once.
Thank god that's fixed. Yeah. Mmm hmmm.

Wow..I made a post about a month ago complaining about how i thought you could take the Fireworks dispay from HzH to the guild hall for a celibration.
Thanks Anet..
Now we can Celibrate things like taking the lead in Alliance faction, or Guildmembers having birthdays, or maxing titles.

I dont know about you, but i do like the fact that we got old hats.
- it gives people 2nd chance to get it. not everyone can be online at their convenience.
- given how bad recent hats were, i prefer great looking old one to new crappy one that only inspires qq.

I've got no complaints. Whatever hat they produced wouldn't be something I'd run around in anyway (I prefer the original yule cap over anything else).
The Fireworks are a pretty cool idea, and may come in useful for guild events, My guild is 8 years old now, and celebrates their 3-year anniversary in GW this coming weekend. Not to mention the 4th of July for us American folks. LOTS of possibilties for a good time to be had with them!
The thing that's making the event great is the Guild-Sponsored districts! I'm happy to see so many people working hard to make the event better for everyone! Thanks all for that! (My guild will be sponsoring one or two tomorrow.)

I totally agree with this. They are breaking something here they always told, hats are given away ones as a kind of achievement: "I have been there".
I didn't get the fireworks, but I am not that bothered about that. I do think it is particularly a let down for people without a Guild
I think they should have done different: everybody who has the full amount of dishes gets a celestial rat but only that guy and not the entire district, no new hat (or at least not a copy of an old one) and everybody in the district 1 pack of GH fireworks.
The mini-pig celestial is of course a joke, kicking generosity in the nuts.
Although some people are just complaining really too much about the events as a whole, I think they made some really bad mistakes in this one.

Because every other mask/hat was only available for the span of an event during one year and that was it. Every year the Halloween and Christmas ones have been different and when new players have asked for the old ones to be made available, Anet's always responded that they'd never do that.
The fact that they said they would do it like two days ago doesn't change the fact that they've been saying they wouldn't before then.
Basically some people are annoyed that this one was repeated but the others weren't; then others are worried that if this one was repeated they might repeat others.
Some people missed some and want to be able to get them all; and others don't want them repeated as it would detract from the specialness of the ones they got at the original event or they just want something new.
------------------------------
I personally don't care as long as they don't give everyone the special tengu mask!

tho this thread is not about the mask so lets not continue talking about it to much.
If they introduced a new mask it would be like OMG THIS MASK IS LAME... now they repeated a nice looking mask imo and people go OMG AGAIN THE LION MASK...

What is the difference in Gaile stating it before, yes it was known before the final started, but that doesn't make it good decision.

Very serious.
Everybody who does the work for it gets rewarded with something fun and more or less guaranteed, not totally random like with the fortunes: one guy doing nothing getting multiple rats from only 42 of them and another guy working his ass off getting non.
For the collector items you need to own more than just Factions, but that might be another problem.
When they can't make a new hat for, no idea about design, no time or whatever other reason, they just shouldn't do one and stick with the other stuff like the pets and fireworks.

Reaching lvl 5 in Factions takes how long? And how much money do you do while reaching it? I am not sure that that was a fix.
