Wintersday Event Kicking off Dec21st!
genofreek
Today a bunch of people from some guild called [JUG] gathered a bunch of people in their guild -- one warrior in a Santa hat and red armor played Santa, and a ton of other guildies dressed up like elves and made Xunlai runs to keep "Santa" fully stocked. They had people lining up in LA to tell him what they wanted for Christmas and get a gift. I walked away with a slice of pie, a creme brulee, and a zealous gold bow. Afterwards I used an elf tonic and hung out to watch the fun.
It's really nice to see people getting into that holiday spirit!

nothing is mentioned of any rings... and its not being held in the boardwalk... i know last year there were rings during wintersday... but i am starting to doubt it this year
Torqual
Is this confirmed? Shing Jea boardwalk was open last year during Wintersday?
I really need to get into the boardwalk so that I can waste lots of money on my Lucky title. Surely A-Net wants us all to use this gold sink, so kindly open it up! CBA to wait for Canthan New Year or Dragon Festival. Boardwalk is open too rarely.

Each district will have its own little mini battle type thing between Grenth and Dwayna. So that people can typically get the hat they want they try to make it Even Districts = Dwayna and Odd = Grenth. Now this doesn't hold for all districts because some people are just nasty that way. But you should be able to bounce districts to figure out which one is winning.
Also it is likely that as usual there will be a small time gap between the Euro districts and the american districts. Or a gap between the low and high districts. This way you should be able to get both caps in one run. Or however many there are.

We can still have even and uneven districts afaik. If not, I'd suggest making LA the dwayna hat place, and Kamadan the Grenth has, seeing as both towns reward the same hats for both deities.

Oh no you Di'in't! Man, Snowball is gonna be fun It is by far (IMO) the best game, by game i mean the ones that give you gamer points. EG Dragon Arena, Rollerbeetle etc.

I love hats, and love the hat npc. good move by Anet.
Now if they could only give us armor storage
Rachel Crow
If only there was an armour crafter for your character, once you buy it and add it, you can rebuy it for 10 gold...
