The updates are great - I was rather obsessive about getting all headgear for all of my 5 characters, involving getting up at 5am on several events, and glad to know now I don't have to bother withmy complicated laptop/wifi network adapter plan for going to be spending part of New Years at a person's house who doesn't have Guild Wars to make some of the events there.
Reconnects - brilliant, especially as my guild has a UW trip planned tommorrow.
Party menu is ace too, although a nice addition would be for it to work across regions if there is only a few districts in one server, and relocates to the Intl server.
But the most exciting thing for me for wintersday was in my inbox. I had an email telling me I had won a prize in the EU creative winter contest. Low and behold, I checked the website (http://eu.guildwars.com/events/contests/winter_party/) and was listed on the creative contest (pseudonym Leandriell Illaran). I then looked to see if I knew anyone on the other (party invite) contest. I also entered that contest and am listed as a winner - I'm going to go party with NCSoft UK!!!! (unless there has been a horrible mistake ;()
Best. Wintersday. Ever
