I love how so many people don't have a clue what is happening tomorrow. From people asking why a rabbit has shown up to what exactly is a party animal to people asking why Gaile is so important... I just can't help but to find amusement to those who are too eager to bypass the login announcements.
I can understand some new people being confused, but sadly, more people who have played for over a year are more clueless than new players.
So let me ask: Do you bother reading the login announcements?
People Who Have No Clue About Tomorrow
StormDragonZ
Cale Roughstar
yes I do...

Phineas
No, I use the -password option and autoskip to char selection screen.
Earth
Well, yes.
Only to know what is going on. Those people without a clue may not have really been "into" the game and don't visit forums, so they don't know who Gaile is.
Pretty logical if you think about it.

No, I read the forums. Shouldn't that be enough? WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME!
Turbobusa
-passwd here...
Konig Des Todes
I read all forms of possible announcements to know what is gonna effect me. That means guru, login, and website.
I pwnd U
Ya I still read them because I am interested in what the weekend event will be.
Alleji
/care @ gaile, but generally I do read them. Not the announcement itself, but the title, since I don't bypass the login screen.
Siirius Black
always read announcements.
But then again, I spend too much time in these forums

It happens each and every time an event, or something event-like occurs. I'm sure its in the laws of physics somewhere.

I do read the announcements, but I also usually check wiki before I even log on---the usually have them up before I can get a chance to log in....(and links so that I can check out the information as well-----)
Skyy High
So what else is new. Hit with a double-whammy this time; it's not even like they decorated the towns a few days before like with Wintersday, so people are confused as heck.
<- still reads the login screens. God forbid I spend 3 seconds typing my password so I know what the next event is without having to go to the wiki.

HawkofStorms
If you don't read forums, how would you know who Galie is?
And agreed with Skyy High. Even when POPULAR holidays like Christmas or Halloween is celebrated, half the district is full of idiots spamming the same 6 questions OVER and OVER again (where do I get hatz? why does this town look different? Can somebody run be to the holiday quest guy? Can somebody give me x item for free? What time is the finale? When is that in (insert my timezone here because I'm too stupid to know what GMT means)?
Is anyone really that surprised?

Some people play to, well, just play. And not mix in the community.
Im serious!

wooot cleaned out lots of collector 'junk' I had on my mules----got another couple thousand party favors-----now just to wait and see what the finale will bring!!!
(though may go out and get more of some of those things---they are pretty easy to get for the most part).

I never knew about the -password "x" feature. Is it safe?
And I only read the announcements when it's something that catches my interest. So normally, I don't.

So what kind of stuff is dropping, and what are the town collectors asking for?
Thanks much (at work-cant play).

But anyway anyone that doesnt use the -password should see the bright yellow announcement. Though its not an event until someone says "Where du i get hat for my?".
Shayne Hawke
I can understand the average player to not know who Gaile exactly is, but I find it hard to believe that people can not understand what's happening tomorrow.
Kyp Jade
So Gaile has the devs convinced that everyone in GW loves her so much they give gaile her own weekend.
I loved what she tried to do for us, but she really wasnt very good at it.

What amuses me is the dozens of people standing in the ring of animals letting of hundreds of fireworks etc. Wait 12 hours and get twice the reward...

Maybe it's not so much that people don't know. Maybe it's more that a lot of people don't care. I sure as heck don't care about this week's "event".
Stockholm
No, I use the -password option (no need to worry about keyloggers that way)
Never cared for the "events" anyway, too much lag

i read both the logon and their website plus spend too much time reading here. i do the password thingy too but logon just to read it at times through a different shortcut so i can read it at least twice a week
MithranArkanere
Even if you bypass the login you shuld know that you can get all the info in the home page.
Asking anyways and not even understanding when they explain you...
That's being clueless.

RPGmaniac
Yes, I read the login announcements. How else am I gonna know what event the people here will cry about this weekend? 
The way I see it, yes there are some people who just want to play. But it still helps to do a little bit of reading on things like events (such as Wintersday, Halloween, this Farewell party, etc). That way you know what's going on and you know ahead of time whether or not you want to participate.
