Was I Hacked? - Guild Wars Forums

I hope this is just a glitch, because it doesn't even make sense to me, at all.

I never attended the Dragon Festival or Tengu or what every festival had the games where you can get the Lucky and Unlucky titles. Also, I do not think there is any of these festivals going on in any other continent.

Well, 2 days ago I log on and go to my title track screen to see a new title path. The unlucky title path was somehow starting with 2 games lost. I never played these games and never even attended that festival. Two days later I come on and find the I have a new title track. It is the Lucky title track and it says I have won 52 games. By this time I am very confused and feel like I have been hacked, because well, how else could this happen.

My first reaction is, if I was hacked they must of taken something. I checked my storage and it was just as I left it. I am really confused and am crossing my fingers this is just a glitch.

Does anyone have so answers for me?

The wintersday event (with the rings) counts towards lucky/unlucky, did you partake in that event? That could account for it

You gained those title tracks by participating and standing in the rings during the Wintersday event, if you had candy cane shards in your inventory it would count towards the title, so no you have not been hacked. I hope that clears things up for you and there is nothing to stress about.

If you were present playing the 9 Rings to get your Hat (Antlers, Yule Cap, Jester, or Freezie) on the 1st for the Finale, this counted towards the title anmd gave you points towards them.

Did you participate in the wintersday events? The games of 9 rings you play for the finale count for those titles, so that could be what's happening.

Also note that when the Dragon Festival comes along you can gain more points towards those titles by playing the games of chance there - assuming you have Faction's and can get to Cantha to participate
