I Really Didn't expect this,

Somehow in this wonderful online sensation called Guild Wars a nobody like me is famous. Everyday I have been getting dozens of whispers from random ppl. Although some of them were just aiming at insulting me a lot thanked me for making them laugh lately.

But in the last 5 days ppl have been requesting autographs. The first time i just lol and said that was impossible. But then they opened trade and gave me a candy cane weapon, and asked me to customize it for them.

By request I have customized about 30 candy cane weapons this Wintersday.

My question is: Am I a one hit wonder, or should I hire an agent.

Off Topic... Not really the place to discuss this. We aren't really discussing Guild Wars related topic here.

Well those ppl are now going to a make a video of you and your candy cane weapons stylized in the format of the MasterCard ads.

1.) 1 million gold - Powerselling/Hours of Farming
2.) 1 Rumour that Candy Cane Shards will turn into limitless Rainbow Candy Canes
3.) 80 Stacks of Candy Cane Shards
4.) Posting on GWG about whether or not Candy Cane Shards can be traded in for Rainbow Candy Canes after you spent 1 million gold buying them - Priceless

For everything else theres MasterCard...

To answer your question 1 hit wonder... those people just want a piece of history about the guy that lost 1 million gold on Candy Card Shards that he thought could turn into Rainbow Candy Cane.

This post is moot if the above rumour turns out to be correct and Kurt you will be market predictor extraordinaire...

Mod Edit - no ebay insinuations/accusations please. I removed the questionable part of the post & any further comments or post's which insinuate or accuse Kurt, or anyone else, of ebay'ing will get deleted.

**EDIT*** Sorry didn't think that would insinuate anything I was mentioning the methods that one can get the gold. Oh wells... Thanks.

Haha, congrats man.

I'm guessing this might have to do with the whole spend-a-mil on cc shards thing? But hey, I probably wouldnt know. Enjoy the fame while it lasts

Yeah, but it's probably backfired on him considering what Gaile said. Only time will tell.... 3 hours to go!
