I made this thread simply because this event provided so much fun I hadnt had in a long time playing Guild Wars.

We all know this event as been much desired and sought after, and Anet did an Excelent Job in bringing it back, with an Elonian Halloween side as well.

Hell of a good way to start Nightfall.

I just cant let compliments pass when people deserve them.

Heres my small tribute, showing the fun I had during this amazing event:

Halloween In Elona

My monk having some fun with Squash Serum(on the Left) and my ranger having just arrived in Elona (on the right)

Id keep my distance XD

Graphics took a while to load, armour looked NEAT for some seconds º___º

Avella Reena having fun in Elona.

Hmmm Drinking too much will cause brain damage.

The Star of the event! Mad King!

Mad King's Deadly way of having fun.

Lynxius Pumpkin Head

Aphalya (newly made Paragon)

Hat Coolness

Thank you Anet!

Feel free to post your thank you comments and memorable pictures.

Awsome screen captures!

I must say the Halloween event has been great fun. Gathering around to meet the Mad King brought a buzz and ping that needs to be continous in GW.

Great job in summing up a wonderful event.
It was a great last year, and a blast this year.

-Cheers!

-malachi- · Nov 01, 2006, 05:48 AM // 05:48

hats are awsome, got one for my rit. But just got screwed on my necro.
Stayed up late to catch the 12-12:30 EST one, and mad king didn't give me a hat, lots of other stuff but no hat :/
(attempting an afk for the last one...I want that hat for him!)

Otherwise awsome event, love ways to keep my rit with a drinking problem going

The soulreaping was AWSOME XD
just seeing all that 7's flying around the screen :P
The "mad king say's" game was also cool (i didn't read the explanation the first time, so my warrior got owned quite a few times :P)

Those stupid "press alt-f4 to get the pumpkinhad" kids are the only complaint i have. Not that i did it, but i find it childish, because i did see some people log off...

AydenV2 · Nov 01, 2006, 12:07 PM // 12:07

Nearly 30 people dieing at once the first time he played "Mad King Says".

Cow Tale · Nov 01, 2006, 12:08 PM // 12:08

my favorite moment was all the dieing noobs during mad king says.

Addone_Abaddon · Nov 01, 2006, 12:10 PM // 12:10

"Now jump for me!"

People jumped up as happy lifeful (lifeless) game characters and landed as dead (lifeless) game characters. lol funny, and funniest part was, they said "WTF?!?!" when they died.

Good:

A big, fun party and new holiday garments.

Bad:

Can't decide which was more sad - the morons who constantly kept clicking Mad King, making the whole event last 45 minutes or the people who kept arrogantly spamming on and on OMG WHAT NOOBS HAHA U SUCK NOOBS whenever someone died during Mad King Says. That's holiday spirit for you.

Amity and Truth · Nov 01, 2006, 12:12 PM // 12:12

Yep.
Mad king says is basically the highlight of Helloween.
I just have to laugh when people flame and bitch and
moan at the king if he kills them just because they
failed to read what he said.
"Hm, what about some DANCE?" - Horde of People
die and then complain about it "lol i typed fast!"

/edit:
Besides, the clicking does not change anything. That
is just an urban myth.

Addone_Abaddon · Nov 01, 2006, 12:15 PM // 12:15

lol I was laughing when I typed /laugh but it took a while for it to come out from a lag, and I laughed too late and died

I loved his knock knock joke

Knock knock!

(you then say "who's there?")

It is I, MAD KING and I order you to laugh!!

So true, that's the first thing I hated about this event, second was the amazingly bad lag I got the entire time.

CyberNigma · Nov 01, 2006, 12:18 PM // 12:18

I miss Drok and Ascalon in full drab :-( I did like the little stand-ups in Kamadan. I was going to take a screenshot behind the Char stand-up till I realized only my neck showed through the hole where the head goes lol... or maybe it was the house, I can't remember...

for the future, I hope they will disable the Mad King answering clicks from people so that it doesn't cause him to pause/turn.

Addone_Abaddon · Nov 01, 2006, 12:21 PM // 12:21

I got a screenshot of my dervish behind a cardboard charr.. I'll post it afterwards.
