Default Wintersday Event Kicking off Dec21st!
From the official website:

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Starting at Noon Pacific (-8 GMT) on Friday, December 21st, Kamadan, Lion's Arch, Droknar's Forge, and Ascalon City will be bursting with seasonal joy. Make the rounds and gaze at ornate Wintersday decorations, talk to special NPCs, and engage in a host of themed quests, missions and games. Take part in one of nine grand finales—even claim a special headpiece as a memento—when you visit Kamadan and Lion's Arch during the 24 hours of Wintersday itself (starting at 12:01 AM Pacific on January 1st). Get the full details at the Wintersday 2007 event page.

www.guildwars.com

Hope to see you all there

Awesome! I wonder what the new headpiece is?

Wins the day?

So does that mean it's across the whole day and we won't be able to go to organised districts and win all four hats this year?

From what I get it, that's how it worked last year.

I certainly hope not.

That would suck hard, if true.

I'm probably wrong, it's just the "this year" bit that made me think, like they were saying "this year, it's different!".

I liked the way people organised the odd/even districts so that everyone got a crack at all the hats. It added a nice community feeling to it.. well apart from the ones who called people 'hat nazis' for trying to keep it fair... lol.

No, it's not going to be across the whole day! Why would they change the way they've done the hats for every festival they've had since they started doing them?

The announcement did mention "games" so I'm guessing they'll be included!


Please stop feeding the paranoid. Thank you.

It says they are. http://www.guildwars.com/events/inga...k7/default.php

For another dose of snowball mayhem, try out the PvP snowball fight. Random forces will unite within an arena to fight for either Grenth or Dwayna. The first team to gather five presents for its patron deity wins the day.

Jeez I did say I was probably wrong, I was only voicing a thought. The paranoid feed themselves quite well anyway I find.

Oooohh.. I still get that feeling I had 2 years ago on the first Wintersday event. Some things do not change for me in this game.

Anet must think their characters have at least 8 heads now. Can't we have a chestpiece, gloves or something other than a headpiece for once?
Still, events are fun. I'll be glued to Snowball arena all Holiday
