I seem to recall something like this happening a long time ago. I just brushed it off as a party window bug.

I had the entire GW GUI crash on me yesterday in lions arch. All buttons, menues etc disappeared, I could call up the map but there were no towns on it - but I could still move by clicking on the screen. Zoning out of LA didn't help, but quitting and restarting guildwars did.

My point: bizarre bugs occur, especially when the servers are overloaded during events.

Its exactly as i said.

I was in a empty outpost. I filled up with hench, and then i find i am speaking

to a guy who was a L 13 Assassin .

I triple check the list over and over, and he was not on it.


He went by the name "AVATAR OF SINS"

and i can absolutely assure you he was not on my list.
He led me through the mission in a calm instructional manner, made a joke about being L 13
and left end mission.

I was left convinced Anet have live players or observers in case of empty outposts or it was just a Team Listing
Bug. However he was not invited, nor added, nor on the list for that matter.

Whichever the case, i was left dumbfounded, however he did manage to get me past a mission i have struggled with
for 27months.

The mission doesnt happen to be Vizunah Square or Unwaking Waters does it? Both those missions have two parties join up

The low level assassin (and difficulty in getting past for some) makes me think of Vizunah Square.

Not a bug, you probably hit ctrl-shift-h by accident. It removes the GUI from your screen to take a nice screenshot (for just a screenie without the GUI you could also hit ctrl-prt scr but you dont see it dissapear).

Just a FYI.

Edit: beaten to it

If I had to pug Vizunah I wouldn't do it for 27 months either. Every time I do it with real peeps instead of hench things get screwed up.

I don't know about this OP guy...is this thread a joke? What the smokes is this list? Friend's list? Maybe he was offline.

Oh nevermind he meant not on the party thing. I see. Yeah it was probably Vizunah then.
