No.

I prefer to be pissed off each week they come up with some retarded pve weekend (ex. Wintersday in July)

romeus petrus · Jul 18, 2008, 05:56 PM // 17:56

I voted no because I dislike the idea of people planning a month in advace how much grinding they are going to do on a specific weekend.

Painbringer · Jul 18, 2008, 05:57 PM // 17:57

It would be nice to know in advance. Whats the possibility of week long events? rather then just weekends?

Ate of DK · Jul 18, 2008, 06:06 PM // 18:06

/no thnx I like suprises.

Tamuril elansar · Jul 18, 2008, 06:13 PM // 18:13

can't see why not.

Dr.Jones · Jul 18, 2008, 06:31 PM // 18:31

i cant see why not it would help everyone i think this way people could hold contest and such on weekends where they get extra rewards for gvg. it would also be helpfull as to when to play what parts of the game like if i was going to start another survivor. or i wanted to get my monumental armor i could plan when i should grind to get it.

WoW I said this a long time ago and now they are thinking about it, I voted yes.

Grunntar · Jul 18, 2008, 06:49 PM // 18:49

Yes, I think having advance notice of the next four weekend events would be most excellent!

(I would say that posting it monthly, however, would fail, though. You'd still have no notice of the first events of the next month until the new schedule was posted. That could be just a few days away in some cases...)

If nothing else, it would minimize the "let down" that some people have now, when we find out the event details for the upcoming weekend event.

Does anyone else see the irony in the emotional reactions from people about this game? They like Guild Wars so much that when it doesn't live up to their expectations, they get pissed... How utterly ironical!!

Pure Disasta · Jul 18, 2008, 06:57 PM // 18:57

Yes (all events)

Fo sho fo sho

ThunderStruck · Jul 18, 2008, 07:41 PM // 19:41

Yes, that would be awesome.

On topic:
I couldn't care less.
I almost never do the weekends - and the only one I do care about - the AFK-weekend - is pretty much on the same schedule every year.

Nessar · Jul 18, 2008, 08:52 PM // 20:52

An event schedule would be nice, for most of the people I know at least

Totally voted yes, why not have one?

Hiotoko · Jul 18, 2008, 08:59 PM // 20:59

Yes, it'd be nice to know when we'll be having massive lag and when it's safe to play.

Neo Nugget · Jul 18, 2008, 09:17 PM // 21:17

Yep, I would love it. I don't see why not. I 'm sure they plan events at least a month ahead already.....i hope>.<

-Sonata- · Jul 18, 2008, 10:11 PM // 22:11

Doesn't matter for me.

On the plus side I may make plans accordingly, but on the flipside I can see complaint threads popping up months in advance of events.

What surprise are you talking about? Other then this weekend, all the weekends are always the same. It's not like someone's going to say OMG, TRIPLE GREEN DROP THE 3RD WEEK OF AUGUST? WAY TO RUIN IT FOR ME ANET!!!! I mean really, there is absolutely no surprise to the weekend events, and you need to get out more if you get disappointed for knowing a repeated weekend event a month ahead of time. Saying there's a special weekend (like this one) and not telling until a few days before the event, I can understand. But weekends like double fame, double SS/LB points, I see no reason not to.

You voted no because you don't like other people planning things ahead of time?

Anyways, I voted don't mind. I could care less if they did this or not.

Navaros · Jul 18, 2008, 11:12 PM // 23:12

Absolutely no reason not to do this. They definitely need a calendar. Most of the 'surprises' are just useless weekends that most players hate anyhow. That is to say they are negative surprises. Better not to be negatively surprised by them when the text for them comes up in-game a day or two before the weekend; and instead just see them on the calendar way ahead of time. The calendar would actually minimize the amount of hate for useless weekends since they wouldn't be 'sprung' on the players at the last minute when they were expecting something good might be coming up only to have their hopes dashed.

KiyaKoreena · Jul 18, 2008, 11:51 PM // 23:51

It would be nice to get a little more notice ahead of time for some events. We have a few guildies that dont play too much, but they like coming back for certain weekends. More than a couple days notice would be great for letting them know which weekends they might want to come back for.

I pwnd U · Jul 19, 2008, 01:59 AM // 01:59

I voted for somethings but I only say that because if they want to pull a suprise weekend out that would be good. But I would like to know which weekends are coming up and when since most of them are repeat.
