Default Guild Wars Guru's Wintersday Trivia Contest


Guild Wars Guru presents our first Wintersday Trivia Contest! We're bringing the joy of giving from ArenaNet straight to you.

Take a break from endless Polar Bear farming and join Kvinna & Jenn this Friday, December 23rd @ 12:00pm PST in Lion's Arch ID 1 for a chance to win one of 15 costume code 2-packs. These are wonderful to add to any fashion conscience player and are sure to get you in the holiday mood!

Still feeling Grenthy? We have an Everlasting Reindeer tonic to give away as well! This holiday tonic will turn you into the cutest of Dwayna's helpers complete with a bright red nose to shine the way from Ascalon to Kryta. One click of this tonic will melt the hearts of everyone around you and throw them into the Wintersday spirit.

Trivia rules are simple:
  • Only one costume pack can be won per person but everyone has a chance for the reindeer tonic!
  • Please spell out your answers, acronyms cannot be used. (Ex: Q: City of Torc'qua, Foundry of Failed Creations, Stygian Veil and Ravenheart Gloom are all areas of what? A: Domain of Anguish)
  • Please do not harass, insult, spam or otherwise be a scrooge. Doing so may disqualify you from winning.
  • The most important rule: Have fun!

These are the new costumes? It just says costume codes so I wasn't sure if they were ones from last years wintersday or the new ones.

Do participants need to be guru members? Are there any qualifiers that ppl need to be aware of?

No, you can invite guildmates or alliancemates who are not on guru for a chance to win.

Will there be a radio station we should tune into, or will it just be text in town?

Wondering the same thing! Hopefully the hosts are OK.

We have a rising suspicion they may be Grentchienapped.

Very evil to play April Fools jokes on Wintersday, very evil indeed!

+1 internet point for being that evil. I'm impressed!

Unfortunately it doesn't look like it can be resolved today, so yeah. I will update the OP as soon as I can with a new date and time.
