New Dragon festival...next weekend

i really didnt know they had gold plated ones but ..........

REMEMBER A SHORT TIME AGO YOU WERE BITCHFESTING ON HOW THE LAG RUINED THE EVENT FOR YOU?

THEY GIVE YOU ANOTHER RETURN VISIT TO SAY SORRY ENJOY IT THIS TIME.

YOU GOLD PLATED............BITCH SOME MORE INGRATES

Im not complaining, i just find it really weird.

i mean its nice...but its kinda...too nice.

creepy nice....if you know what i mean.


Lovi, chill dude.

Do people even read the announcement or this thread before replying?

It's right there in the announcement.
Some of the anet bashing is justified, but this is just getting dumb.

Fair enough. I stand corrected.

hi double gold plated one

they said it is a second chance for those who were unable to enjoy it because of the lag.

no new mask just a chace to enjoy it without the lag

Balthazar's Beard people! They could give out free Yeti minipets and you all would complain because its nut-hair wasn't braided. This is an unprecedented display by ANet to help people out that missed on something and this is the thanks they get.

I'm stocking up on creme brulees again, so I'm quite happy.

AWE!!! ANET AT LEAST OFFER THE 1st ORIGINAL DRAGON MASK for those of us that missed the first Dragon Festival but DID get to attend the 2nd one...

Sigh... I will never get an original dragon mask since I bought Factions so late...



(but this is good for people who want to attend the 2nd dragon fest that missed the demon helm...)

Ok, sounds alright of them giving others a second chance, yet a lot of people will be on vacation now or soon..

I'll bet that the same lag comes back for this weekend and it's problems all over again :/
on second tought i did manage to get a nice amount of cash from the event ^^, so wouldn't be that bad

How about assigning the presents this time around?

Wow, I thought this was some kind of mistake at first, but I guess it's happening. It does make sense, as a lot of people experienced some pretty horrible lag during the festival, maybe it's a way to make up for those who didn't really get a chance to play because of that.

They could also be using it as a chance to hype up GW:EN. Maybe the earthquakes?

Woot, more Dragon Arena. I love that game.8)

Great, a weekend of people frantically screaming and running around clogging up servers with the "ZOMG WHEN DOES EMPEROR ARRIVE?! IS IT THE SAME MASK AS LAST TIME!"

...and of course the people who dish out horrible insults to those people.

Should be interesting.

I did buy factions the day it came out and only took a 2 week break during the 4th cause of friends. So i to missed the dragon helm, i think its ridiculous that they had this event after the 4th and the first during the 4th and now are repeating again when people are actually available to attend. I think they need to start advertising events in emails to their customers so that we can prepare for the event such as asking for a day off work and such.

I want a Dragon Helm! its the last one in my collection!!!

I think everyone is missing this line from the announcement.

Goodness, I want to make sure you all understand why we're doing this. I mean, it's entirely unclear isn't it? We just don't say a word?

Why, wait a minute, the reasoning is included in the news post itself! Europeans, in particular, were not able to participate in the DF in July, or were so lagged they didn't get the drops, or found that the Dragon Arena was just unplayable. Now, with a global game, how nice is it to repeat the event for everyone? So that global guilds aren't in a "have's and have not's" position. So that people who did attend can, well, do it all again if they choose.

(Sorry for the sarcasm at the top -- sometimes negativity, especially repeated, unreasonable, and ill-founded negativity -- just boggles my mind.

On the other hand, thank you to the vast, vast majority who read, who understand, and who support the rerun of the event! )

I'm not typically the one to complain about stuff like this...but...this is kind of lame...

Well Timmy was in crutches last month during Christmas, so we're going to have a second Christmas for everyone because Timmy couldn't participate to the full extent that everyone else could.

It just seems wrong....

I'm just going to stay out of Cantha for the weekend, to be safe, but I am liking the territory switch...

I get what you're saying, but it wasn't just Timmy. It was Timmy, Tommy, Tiny and, well lots of people really.

numchuck skillz here i come <3
