Who's going to be on when the clock (in your timezone) strikes 12 on december 31st?

I know you're out there

And also, has anyone ever being playing guild wars at a significant moment in their life?

For example when they became a father, or when their brother finally manages to call home from backpacking in Canada.

Basically at the time of any even that warranted more attention that you gave it...because of guild wars.

If it was something important in real life, I wouldn't let stupid games get in my way, they won't matter later in life. However at 12 on the 31st I will be sleeping, I'll wake up the next day for the event and such, sleep > Guild Wars.

The last thing I want to do to start off the new year is to be playing an online game.

I will be 200 miles from home and PC. Most likely a bit inebriated, if at all conscious.

But would probably have been playing otherwise.

Yeah I probably will be, as I only get Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day off work... one of those calls for an all-night Guild Wars session. And NYE depresses me.

Hell yeah I will be.

I'm getting Nightfall for Christmas, plus my desktop will have Internet for the first time in months, plus I'm off work on Jan. 1st.

I have a life, but I've been living it instead of playing GW for a looong time.

Actually, I probably will be. Not much for parties, so there's not a lot of things to do at that time of the year :P I don't mind it, call me anything you want, I've got thick skin

I have no idea.

I'm too young to go and get drunk legally.
Parties are full of drunk people and while being drunk is all fun n games I'd be the designated driver. Not my idea of fun.
I put relationships on hiatus, so nothing there.

The most likely thing will be hanging out with the family which is entirely possible.

But I might and probably will log on GW for a tiny bit, depends on work.

... I'll probably be quite plastered, tbh.
Though that doesn't make a change from any usual weekend...

I'll also probably be getting rather friendly with a number of lady friends.
Again, no real change

The only real difference is that on New Year's... I add some bubbly to the usual list of double whisky after double whisky.

I'll be on.

I spent the start of 2007, hung over, sick, and suffering incredible memory loss of the night before. I feel like avoiding that to start 2008.

All my friends will be out consuming a type of beverage they aren't supposed to be having at their age

So, since I don't do that, yes, I'll probably be on GW.

Parent spike: when someone's parents actually tell them to stop rotting away in front of the computer and spend some family time together.

I'll own up-I was on last New Years (and for a couple hours on Christmas too).
This New Years I'll be spending it cuddled up with my girl and since it's a bit awkward to hold the laptop while snuggling I prolly won't be on lol.
As for a special family moment....I believe I was concentrating on nuking Oni in the Deep in HM when my bro called me up to tell me I was gonna be an uncle XD

Who knows or cares, but, I'd rather be sad and play GW on new years eve than be even stupider and get drunk. Sleeping will certainly be on the agenda.
