Omg i'm so pissed, I took this today:

I hope this is a sick cruel joke from Anet and they change it, I know tons of people waiting for this weekend to get their armor and now they aren't even going to play guild wars. Title grinding is bad enough normally but when they show you a 2X point weekend and smash it from you, it's just horrible.

My announcement is the same; I really don't understand what's going on with it. Hopefully we'll get an explanation from Gaile or something.

Do we really need an explanation from Gaile when this is just a simple text error? I don't think there's any need to panic and point fingers at Anet unless the double reputation weekend doesn't actually happen.

Until then, cool it guys...there's more important things you can stress about.

Well best we can do at this point is wait for the text update. (If there will be one.)

This better just be a simple error and not true...please, i have this weekend all planned out for it...cant do the same next weekend.

Mine still has the Allaince Battles header!!!

Could be that it is an error and they are getting to one region at a time?

Is it really that hard to read? The double reputation weekend is still on. If you're getting this, it's just a display bug.

Well, i'm not getting the Double Rep header here in England and i went in to see if it was just a text error, but after killing some stuff in Norn lands, i was just getting the regular 1 point per kill!!!

This sucks. I hope ANet get their butts into gear and sort this out, it looks like one set of servers isnt pushing the new data through.

You still have 2 hours and 30 minutes before the event would start either way. >.<

It starts in two hours? That'll be 12 PM Friday here in Washington state. I thought this was a weekend event. I think you are off by 12 hours, Hott Bill.

Mine has dbl alliance as of 2pm eastern. I'd prefer an explanation from anet rather than a bunch of kids speculating its a text error.
