title said it all. I know the event isnt over yet, but I just wanted to start a topic anyways. Get the title you wanted? made more gold? Got alot of event items?

For me, I got my Lucky and Hapless title. If im speical enought I can probably get my unlucky title (at 7,272 losses atm). If I didnt get caught in that "glitch" I could of probably had it by now. Other than that. I got more of the collectors event items (fireworks and such) and im goign to spend my leftover tickets on the boardwalk prizes and stash them away!

I got "Tragic". Pretty happy about that. Always wondered why Wiki listed "Hated" as the maxed title from the last event until this weekend even though there was zero evidence that "Hated" was the maxed title since no one had it. Even pointed it out way back then, yet still it said "Hated" for no reason all this time. I notice now they changed it as of today because others must have finally got Tragic also. Although I never believed "Hated" was the maxed level title, it's kind of disappointing to be unsure of it for months and then when reality hits, the "Wretched" word is a lot less cool-sounding than "Hated". Stuff like this is yet another reason why Anet should always give full disclosure about all the information they have about the game instead of leaving players in the dark and thus leading to unnecessary misleading information such as this example.

this weekend I had planned on trying out rollerbettle, but instead I decided to get my newest rit some new armor....got him from viznuah all the way to cavalon (with masters on all but napuhli ).....had some great pugs along the way. Got him some pants! He is much happier now. Will try rollerbettle some other time-----------

Finally passed the 480k mark in beetle racing, hopefully teaching that rotten Dark Sentry a lesson or two (at least until he makes his next adjustment and beats my time)! I also got to meet a lot of new people asking about beetle racing and the Drunkard title. And I hit level 2 on the (Un)Lucky tracks... and I'm still only 10% of the way to max.

Failed to reach Prosperous due to excessive disconnects. Early in the afternoon I calculated I might still get there if I did nothing else than gamble till the event ends. Decided I wanted to play instead and left the event for what it was.

I got Charmed this weekend. Got a little over half way to Hapless but decided I would just save it for next time.

As best I could tell this was pretty much just a weekend to grind the junk gamer titles, so nothing. I guess other people like them, so more power to them, but things like "drunkard" and "unlucky" really hold no appeal for me. My only interest is in the ones you get for actually playing the game.

Even though it's not over, I'm still working on getting the Skillz title. I don't see much of a point in Lucky/Unlucky since you can just afk the whole thing. I have around 250 points left to go and hopefully I'll get 10k Balth faction again before the event is over. It pays to have good groups in D Arena.

Got Unfavored, hoping to get to Tragic (so fits a necro) and blew through about 75K buying tickets and gift boxes. It's gonna be another festival or two before I make that one.

Kinda want to hit the hatchling arena--at some of the outer districts I only see one or two people playing and I am sure they are scoring victory tokens galore, but other things to do, prefer the AFK action for now

Oh yea, got my monk to lvl 14 in pre-Sear on my way to that other "no-respect" title.

I had a great weekend with the Dolls in Jea am dist 1 dancing and playing ring games, lost all my gold and tickets and only got my title to 30,000 pts.

I tried the dragons nest for the first time came in 3rd in a group of 4.I had ball on the roller beetles, at one time I was in first place but some clever tactics from my fellow players saw me finish in last place.

Spent some time hunting wribits in Jea AM dist 1
Be vewwy, vewwy quiet...I'm hunting wabbits!
Just wait till I get my hands on that scwewy wabbit and that scwewball duck

The highlight for me was all the DANC club running around dressed as elves via the Yule tide tonic looking for our pot of gold. Seems we all lost our gold this weekend.

Was a great event just wish that tickets cost a little less or would payout more.

Went from ~2k in Lucky to (currently) 113k (Was unable to attend dragon festival last time), went from 200 in unlucky to (currently) 8,650 (I want to get Unlucky by the end of the event, still have 5 1/2 hours so I think I will ). I love that Anet is doing a weekend like this, gave me a chance to get some titles (Still down 250 points on gamer ) I wanted, and check out some event mini-games I missed out on (Dragon Arena, parts of boardwalk).

PS: Sorry you got hit with the rollback, that's too bad.

I didn't accomplish anything in the GW world this weekend. I was too busy with real life events. I hope everyone else had fun though.

I got hapless and somewhere slightly over 1/3 to charmed. I also somehow managed to bear with crappy arena players and laggy beetleraces long enough to get Skillz from the 400 points i got during the holidays.

I played a lot of Dragon Arena and had a lot of fun doing it. Got almost 1k gamer points, got 2 stacks of Tokens. Bought some tickets as well and as of now I'm at 600 or so more tickets then I started out with. Not sure what my titles are at as I haven't looked. I will when I'm done with my tickets.

I also got about 50k faction from the Dragon Arena. Oh I also hit expert skill hunter. Almost to the end!

Nothing, wasn't on much due to lack of sleep and piled homework. Basically, didn't have time to join the gamer weekend.

I got prosperous at 630k and 45k in unlucky, so almost tragic.

Rotten?...

I believe my run is flawless and I don't need to make any adjustments(discuss privately if u feel different). I could post a 486 if i could get lucky because I get to the water boxes @ 38s and my 480 was comboed at 44s, but I enjoy dodgeball more so I got the rest of my gamer points there. I've got less than 10,000 to go now for 1337 Skillz (7).

I had a lot of fun this weekend. I'm still relatively new and so I haven't really looked at titles before. This weekend I discovered the joy of title hunting!

I really got into the whole party atmosphere thing. I tried rollerbeetle racing and discovered that I really really suck at it. I then tried the Dragon's Nest game and discovered that I'm really really good at that one, so I spent a lot of time there whacking wurms and winning Victory Tokens which I spent on Pepsi Cola in order to work on my sugar tooth title and whack more wurms faster at the same time.

I spent some time working on the Lucky/Unlucky titles, but I dislike spending a lot of cash for tickets. I'd rather save the money for some high-end minipets.

I discovered binge drinking and since I still had some spiked eggnogs saved up from Christmas, my warrior spent the entire weekend gambling and drinking.

No titles earned yet, since I just started, but I made good progress towards all the weekend titles. (Lucky, Unlucky, Gamer, Drunk, Sweet).

Unfortunately, I found Scarlet passed out on the boardwalk this morning. She will be entering rehab this afternoon.

Fought to keep my house and family going, yet managed to join in on the gamer weekend festivities. Not an easy feat. Loved rollerbeetle racing with an unnatural obsession. Though the lag at times was maddening. As per titles... added to many of them. Keep the special events comming.. Keeps this gaming woman happy.

I think Dragou meant "egotistical" or maybe he was just joking :P He seems to have a sense of humor...
