Dont they announce an event on Wednesday evening or at the latest Thursday evening? Maybe there wont be an event this weekend, although its been a while since there hasent been one planned etc.
Pol

Would be somewhat a blessing since most of the time its the same old event, still kind of strange thats theres been nothing but silence from ANET.

...and ignorance is bliss. I think we've had a pretty intense run of 'good' weekend events lately. They'll porbably tone it down this weekend.

They need to let their servers cool down (and save a little money in the process) after all the afk'ing last weekend.
Polgara Val
Still somewhat suprising, do you lot even remember the last time when ANET didnt do at least one silly event for the weekend? (baring a year or so ago) I certainly dont remember the last time.

It will probably show up when the skills get reverted.
VitisVinifera
its because the raptors are threatening to strike, and all the saurians would give their support

Costume brawl weekend!!!!!!!!!!

Meh, if there is no event it's not a big deal. Just means there is one less thread full of people cheering for it and complaining about the event.
N1ghtstalker
broodmother threatened to follow the Anet employees home and kill their dog (epic postal 2 quote) if they would do anything that would danger her youngins
and the broodfather made the same threat if they didn't make a new weekend so he would breed new youngins

sweet, less lag perhaps?
Polgara Val
Do people actually complain about events? Say it isint so
Maybe there preparing a triple ecto and shard drop weekend, now that will get people cheering and moaning at the same time in equal measure!

It'll show, just wait. Will most likely be a Ab weekend.

The developers are still AFK in Nine Rings. They forgot to revert their own personal server...

The week before the The Bugs showed up it was quiet. Anyone remember the reason kephket showed up?? I do. to many corpses attracted the bugs. So, how big is the corpse pile of raptors?
Polgara Val
Maybe there going to come up with something tottaly different, stun and amaze us with there brilliance with this original weekends event....
Then again maybe not

Do we seriously need this post again? This exact same thing was posted last week. It is coming. Its not "late." There is no present time where they "have" to announce the event. Can this just be a "banned topic" that gets autoclosed?
BlackSephir
Yes, nothing special weekend, also knows as no lag weekend.
Teh besters weekend there is!!1

I'm sure they will have an event this weekend. They always have since weekend events started a long time ago. They are not gonna break that long established pattern out of the blue for no reason.
slowerpoke
a whole weekend for the 3 year celebration. now that was just plain cheap
Polgara Val
If i recall correctly they posted last weeks event about 1830 pm GMT on Thursday, also i didnt say there was a specific time that they announce events, I said that they usually do around about Wednesday to Thursday evening. Still the skills havent reverted and there has been no update that I know of.
So there might not be any event in which case, lag free weekend for all possibly It would break a long standing tradition of weekend events in GW on a weekly basis etc.....

It's the 3rd anniversary. The last cash official tourney is done, there won't be any more significant balances, prophecies was "completed", and the next batch of GW2 previews/hype are likely around the corner. A good time to wind down Guild Wars supports like weekly events, wouldn't you say?

The events at least pull me back and give me some slight fresh outlook on the game, this isint just my opinion but most of the people i know through the game agree at least on this point.

Just like Kephket killed Gryphon farming, adding even a little something to the nestlings (maybe nestling guardians) would stop the overfarming of the area.
miskav
They'll just put a bloodsucking leech at raptors. lol.
That'd be win
That'd be win
Polgara Val
Would be amusing if they did something out of the ordinary for the weekend event, maybe a double drop of Crystalline Swords from certain elite areas?
I am sure the gw community would go into collective apoplexy if that should ever happened.
Pol
Edit; Still no event in news when GW is switched on.

There will be a special event this weekend, and the details will be posted tomorrow. The reason for the delay this week was that the localization team did not get the text for the other languages in time to post today, and messages for all languages go out at the same time.
For those who can't wait until tomorrow, here is what will be happening on the weekend of May 2:
Double Faction in Hero Battles
During this event, players will receive double Balthazar faction in all Hero Battles.
Double Victory Points
During this time, players will receive double Victory Points while participating in Hero Battles. A player would normally receive one Victory Point for each win in rated battles, so they will now receive two points per rated match win for the duration of the weekend.
For those who can't wait until tomorrow, here is what will be happening on the weekend of May 2:
Double Faction in Hero Battles
During this event, players will receive double Balthazar faction in all Hero Battles.
- Players will receive 40 Balthazar faction per point as opposed to the normal 20 faction per point in Hero Battles.
- Players will receive 200 Balthazar faction for winning a Hero Battle as opposed to the normal 100 Balthazar faction for winning a Hero Battle.
Double Victory Points
During this time, players will receive double Victory Points while participating in Hero Battles. A player would normally receive one Victory Point for each win in rated battles, so they will now receive two points per rated match win for the duration of the weekend.

That's good. It will give Rekoff Broodmother some time to lay more eggs.
