If anything, truly, that I will "hope" for is that last nights update was a pre-update to whatever the update/announcement will be today.
According to Gaile, it seems like there will be more than what they put in the update yesterday

Yeah, people were jumping the gun.

Yesterday was Thursday. Weekend updates are almost always on Friday.

I'm pretty happy with the update yesterday. Gave me 3 heroes for my lvl 18 dervish and I traded my first tapestry to my warrior so I could put my mini-pets on display


I'm excited to see what the actual weekend stuff will be.

Try GW:EN for FIVE Hours – Even if You're Level 10!

Players who've secretly longed to try out the new Guild Wars: Eye of the North expansion, rejoice! This holiday season we're giving everyone a present: a five-hour trial of GW:EN! Plus, in the latest update we permanently lowered the level requirement for Eye of the North from 20 to 10 to make it easier than ever to enjoy the first true Guild Wars expansion. Think your character doesn't have what it takes? Think again. We now provide a buff to all characters level 10-19 to go toe-to-toe with the new content.

"double the chance to receive rare items from chests"

since chests have probably 75% chance to give golds, with 25% being diamonds, onyxs, or greens, just how does that calculate out?

I'm glad I went with Vinraith's advice.

All I really see myself doing is farming lockpicks...

At least I'll get to goof around with my bro a little.
