Something interesting I found though. This is the prize information:

Quote:
Event finish Prizes earned per player
1st place copy of Guild Wars Nightfall (non-boxed version)
4 skill/item unlock codes*
Permanent Gold Cape trim for guild
2nd place 3 skill/item unlock codes*
Silver Cape trim for guild**
3rd-4th place 2 skill/item unlock codes*
Silver Cape trim for guild**
5th-16th place 1 skill/item unlock code*
Silver Cape trim for guild**

Beneath the prize listing it states this:

Quote:
skill/item unlock codes allow the user to unlock 6 skills, 1 elite skill, and 1 weapon or item on any Guild Wars account for any campaign
I'm willing to wager that this is how the pvp unlock packs will be presented in the online store in the near future.


Also, for the swiss tournament battle maps it lists the following:

Quote:
* Round 1: Hunter's Isle
* Round 2: Isle of the Dead
* Round 3: Quicksand
* Round 4: Isle of Meditation
Quicksand? Perhaps it's a new map! The closest thing is the Nomads Isle, but if it's already exsisting why didn't they just list it as the Nomad's Isle?

I'm excited about the new tournement style. Some sort of round robin is much better than single elimnination, IMO.

I wouldn't count on it. That's the same unlock pack deal that came with Guild Wars Prophecies special edition.
