Zip, zilch, zero, nil, nada, and a big fat nothing. Grinding is not entertaining to me and I didn't really feel like questing... so I more or less just ignored the weekend. Actually, I got a few hundred dwarf points doing Fronis' just for kicks, but since that didn't count in the doubling, the weekend itself still didn't give me anything.

C'mon double-gold chest weekends. I'm feeling a gambling spree coming on and I've got plenty of money to waste built up.

people claiming to hax maxed this that an the other, for a start there is no proof. secondly, dont think any of this matters.

Yea, it really is unfortunate people have no recourse but to post in threads that don't interest them.... if only they could choose not to participate in such things.... oh, wait.

From 92k Norn points (rank 8) i got to 171k Norn points (rank 10).

I wanted to do some Deldrimor runs as well, but was too tired from all the Norn grinding

I was all excited about this weekend till it got here

Vanquished 2 zones and said that's enough - went to watch TV - managed to do a few more areas spaced over the weekend - I get grind burn out easily now a days

So bottom line is I maxed nothing nil nadda

I went from 49k Norn points to 109k. I might do a tiny run to get the 600 points I need.

Went from r5 to r6 Asuran but I only needed about 100 points. Went up about 4k points in Vanguard and 2k points in Deldrimor. Still r7 in both.

Got from nothing to rank 5 with everything except Asuran, which I just don't care for in any way whatsoever. (Got back into Guild Wars after quitting Warcraft last month - last thing I want is a stupid, stupid grind and technology invading a previously cool world [see: Netherstorm and all of Burning Crusade]).

Finished off my last rep I hadn't maxed yet (vanguard). Got 20k points in Sacnoth in about an hour by vanquishing it, points add up fast with double. Bosses were heavily significant (450+2+4+hunt rampage, x2) to counting towards the high number.

I also got about 16k vanguard and 10k deldrimor just doing quests on my sin to get her mo zing mask. Pretty nice stuff, \o/

Got to r4 Norn on my monk, mostly because I had to work and I couldn't complete a dungeon (Spulchre, because I suck). Then I got really annoyed at monking and made some tea. I think. Should get more soon though, only about 9k until my armour.

Note: This is from about 100 Norn rep

Nothing. If I'd had the time I could have finished Deldrimor and chopped down Asuran quite a hefty bit, but real life took priority for this one.

I'll just have to do books now basically.

My main char is already maxed on all, so I tried to work on my Warrior to build up her ranks.

Unfortunately, grind = zzzzzzzzzzzzz, so I just couldn't bear to do it for more than an hour or two....

I'm kinda bummed that there is so much grind involved in getting my secondary characters fully pimped out with PVE skill functionality.

85K on my dwarf title was nice. Got that bugger maxed.

I hate those snowmen, but the 5K/run was too sweet to ignore this weekend.

I skipped the grind and did 7 HM Dungeons + 2 Vanquishes. Still got plenty of Deldrimore and Norn points through that, and made some progress on LMotN along the way.

Got from Rank 4 to Rank 9 Norn. BT accidentely cut off my internet connection on Sunday which prevented me from being able to get anymore, which has really annoyed me.

I worked on Legendary Master of the North points by doing HM dungeons and Vanquishing mostly, which gave me much reputation points at the same time. Felt good killing two birds with one stone. No grinding at all.

MotN - r4 -> r5 (140 pts off max)
Norn - r9 -> r10
Delv - r8 -> r10
Asura - r10 (no change)
Ebon - r8 (no change)

Once I finish the 2 last HM dungeons, that book should top off Ebon nicely.

And I got a Ruby Djinn! All and all a very pleased with this weekend event.

I went from rank 7 to 10 for Dwarven rep by doing the Snowman dungeon with a friend for an evening. Aside from that I didn't play much.

I went from 9 to 10 Vanguard, vanq'd the 3 areas, and did a couple Dalada runs.
8 to 9 Norn, still a couple areas there to vanquish, then I'll probably grind.
8 to 9 Dwarven, I have a few guildies that do CoF runs all the time.
Stayed at level 7 Asuran. Will probably use a HM book at some point.

I was able to max all the EOTN rep titles. Very easy to do by avoiding bosses til 251 kills, then getting 900 points per boss (plus 600 more on top if under Boss Bounty, etc.) Farming the Facets in the Norn area gave insane points like this. 4500 guaranteed at least just from them alone. Add the spirit in the Xandra quest for another 900 on top.

But, I suspect most PUGs were not wise enough to do things like avoid bosses or use quests to their advantage, so their mileage would probably be a lot lower.

8k ebon vanguard rep.

That's all.
I did fill in a HM hero handbook tho, but I guess that doesn't counts as it didn't get doubled.
