Curse

Here's something I want to share with everyone else:

Almost a week ago, I posted a trade topic here:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=52320

One of the items was a:
Poisoner's Spatha(14>50 req 9 sword) of Fortitude+26
The last bidder had a forum name of "Banana Man", he did not post his IGN earlier, so I assumed "Banana Man" was his IGN.

I decided to close all deals as many days have passed, plus I have new stock for sale and I reckoned it would be better to post a new trade topic.

Anyway, this morning while I was in Augory Rock, I saw some people asking questions related to Griffon farming, so I offered to take 'em for a Griffon farming tour. One of the players wanted a second go after I finished the first run, and so I took him for another run.

After that, we decided to add each other to our friends list.

Ok, here's come the 'Guild Wars and GuildWarsGURU.com is a small world' part:
As I stated earlier I wanted to close all the deals and reap in my earnings from the auction, I discovered that "Banana Man" has edited his lastest bid post and included his IGN in it.

Turns out that, he's the guy that I took him for a Griffon farming tour earlier this morning! Whoah! Heheh! I alt-tab back into Guild Wars, saw that he was still online, and told him about it.

The natural reaction? Surprised, of course, heheh. Anyway, I closed the deal, and we're both happy with the trade.

I've read another "What are the odds of this happening" post before, that was about selling lots of ectos for the price of one. I think its 9 ectos for the price of one.

Well, my story ends here.
Hope you enjoyed reading!
Cheers!

I have once found 3 bottles of red dye on one mob in an 8 man party for thunderhead. All three are reserved for me. What are the odds of that? Probably astronomical.

I like it when I see people that I partied with in the earlier missions in Droknar's and the like. Almost makes me proud that they "made it" too.
