It seems that a lot of people are missing the key point here. A-Net said that it would run though noon today. Many people made their plans accordingly. A-net failed to keep their word on this, spoiling the plans of many of their customers.

It's not the worst thing that a gaming company has ever done (ever hear of Nova Logic?), and it won't be the last time one screws up. BUT, when someone, whether it be a business or an individual, says they'll do something, they need to stand by what they've commited to doing!

I was in Kamadan switching districts to use my yuletide tonics. 4 districts. The one in district 4 went for a while after it finished in the other three. I still have about a hundred tonics left.

Kind of ironic that Gailes final event screws up... Bon Voyage Gaile
The thing is that ever since the original team started working on GW2, the timing of the special events keeps getting messed up. I think they need to look at the common thread. Is it the same person doing it every time? Is it maybe that a part of their training is missing? Whatever it is, I wish they'd look at it and fix it.

wow some people are low. there is absolutly no pleasing some people. anet noticed the mistake and fixed it, and here we are with another whiner who's still saying it isnt enough? get off the forums and go do your little farming business if its THAT important to you. im assuming anet has fixed the bug and will simply end it when the original ending time was intended.

Well, shucks. New build to resume the party and I'm not there to restart the game. My daughters monk and my monk will probably be dancing in a distrcit all by themselves by the time I get home. lol

Oh well, no big deal.

You get more from /violin afking. 21 to be exact. But since the party is over this information is useless.
Also I made Life of the party thanks to this event: gg ANET apart from the problems, a completely acceptable and fun event that didnt even have to be done. So people need to stop whining and enjoy whats given freely.

I always dislike it when events end early. Take last year's new year's that should still be going until this year's new years. Such a lack of festive spirit. =[
