Default The 101/1001/100001 Worst Weekend Event Ideas Thread

Anet likes to do special weekend events. This is a thread for the not-so-good yet funny event ideas. Let's see how many we can come up with..

1. Wammo Weekend: Your attribute points in Healing Prayers are doubled when casting Mending and Healing Hands.

2. Double your Lag Weekend: For this weekend only, double your gaming challenge with double the lag.

3. Error 7 Weekend: Enough said.....

4. Do your Homework Weekend: For this weekend only, you will not be able to log on to Guild Wars..

Number 4 has been happening to me for the past month. And it's voluntary study, too.

Double DP Weekend: Have fun with twice as much Death Penalty when dying which can go up to 120%!

No Level Cap Weekend: You can finally pretend GW is like any other mmorpg and throw balance out the window and grind your heart out. For this weekend only, absolutely no level cap at all! A 140-250 dmg sword to the person who gets to lvl500 first!

Quadruple Boss Damage Weekend: Not happy with the double damage Canthan bosses were dealing? Don't worry, for this weekend only all bosses will do quadruple damage! No more killing you with one spell, they now kill your entire party with one spell. Fun fun fun!

Trade Channel Spam Weekend: Having trouble selling items? Not anymore! For this weekend the trade channel with be merged with all other channels and they'll work across servers! That's right, write one line in one trade channel and it'll appear in every channel on every server! Wow!

Removed level cap week end: Get your character level as high as you can before the event ends. After the week end, all characters fall back to 20.

Go to Work Weekend: Work lots of overtime and end up with zero-four hours of GW time.

Go to Sleep Weekend: All GW servers will shut down at the appropriate time for every time zone; when night falls. Better wake up early if you're going to play.

Get a Job Weekend: GW servers are shut down until everyone over the age of 16 has a job. This weekend lasts until at least 75% of the player-base has a job. Anyone under the age of 15 must do work around the house for their mommy.

You Are What You Kill weekendFor one weekend whenever you kill a monster you turn into that monster. This is not reset when you enter a town or outpost so you're seriously screwed if you kill a lvl4 grawl outside ascalon
