Our Guild Leader went into FoW last night and the party got no significant drops.
OK, it wasn't Friday the 13th yet, but he just told me about it. And I guess nobody wants a truly unlucky day playing GW.
No drops in FoW. Level 2 monsters kill you no matter what you do. there's a bug in the mission timers so they drop to zero minutes just as you start fighting. Soul reaping gets nerfed ... oh wait, that already happened last Friday.
OK I've had my cheap jab, now onto the main business. What do you think would be fun in a Friday 13th event?
Do we get to fight Black Cats? Do ladders mysteriously appear for us to walk under? Do we get drops of spilled salt to throw over our shoulders to ward off the bad luck?
Friday 13th Event?

I think you should have a chance to boost your "Unlucky" title up.

Then again... I think too much, sometimes.

You drop whatever weapon you're carrying when you die, and only the mobs can loot it (and they do).

Everyone gets lots of ectos from every monster they kill and, in the evening, the servers die and get reverted to last wednesday.

When you sell anything at a merchant, a random item (including your held items) is sold instead. (merchant lag!)
When you enter an explorable area, your skillbar is replaced with the previous build you loaded. (sorry guys, I forgot to switch from my farming build before we left!)
GW reboots every time a gold item drops for you, and you can't reconnect for 11 minutes. (Arrrrgh!)
You mysteriously die just before achieving a flawless victory in any arena. (WFT?)

Most of these ideas are not very good for events... 90% of them are detrimental to the player. Imagine if the random item got sold instead of your merchant food was your gold req 8 15^50 crystalline... Sure it may be funny to you people when a newbie yells "WHY DID IT SELL MY WEAPON NOOOOO" but how funny is it when your items are wasted due to a planned glitch?
Events are supposed to be fun... not ruin people's accounts, characters, and time, and interest in the game...

How about broken drops that are worseless, that way you add toward your unlucky title.

This was offtopic but I found it rather fascinating, I got 3 golds today, a +30hp sword hilt and a shard kind of odd for Friday the 13th AND I saw a black cat today (before said items).

i dont think there is any friday 13th event... gaile gray or someone else had told us that there is something

As long as hench and heros share drops, every day is Friday the 13th.

But on a related note, how about a collector that gives out Jayson masks and maybe have Jayson's machete drop as loot.

To encompass both the Friday 13 and February essence of this thread:
My mom was born on Friday, February 13.
Unlucky Slayer
Friday the 13th is just another day...
Nothing real special about it...
Some people are really lucky, and they were born on a Friday the 13th.

You know what I love about the GW community?
That some folks have totally missed that the point of this thread was a joke. Laugh at the suggestions and move about your business. We all know they are not doing anything to the game let alone a detrimental effect that would "ruin" it for players. But that is an essential part of comedy, laughing at the foible's that effect another person.
I vote for a day where all your dye reverts to grey and stays that way and the minipets all change into mini-grawl that hammer your toes. Worse yet, every time you enter a playable area, you become Gwen.

Every white drop or purple chest item adds +1 to your unlucky title.. if it was dropped in areas with level24mobs.

It's silly to think that someone who suggest random sells to merchant should happen on Friday 14th....

All monsters drop stacks of 100,001 gold. (Since you can only hold 100,000 gold in your inventory, these stacks would be impossible to pick up.)
