Lol, sounds like they're trying to sugar-coat the Ursan nerf for vanquishers.

Time to do some vanqing.
To bad I can only play for 4 hours a day since my dad has set a timer on the computer and internet -.-'
That's what you get for playing on the summer...

Done.

[JUNK]

So instead of 1k gold you can now make 2k gold for playing the game for 2 hours?
Dude, I am telling you, watch the ecto prices sky-rocket since I have a sneaky suspicion that that everyone will be farming vanquishes this weekend which won't leave any time for the normal ectos farms!
Mark my words!

MARK THEM!

Vanquishing will still suck, and many smart ppl have already finished it in anticipation of the ursan hit.

some people like vanquishing, some don't

I am one of those who do like it and might do some this weekend, depending on how I feel

I wonder if they have a wheel of fortune that they do this on.

It's the most logical explanation.

VQ rewards suck anyway
you're busy VQ'ing an area for a whole hour or more to get 2k or something
to get 4k instead isn't really motivating

I'm glad I decided not to vanquish Raisu Palace and Ferndale in Cantha already.

At least this weekend will get me to be involved...

The millionth halve, the flamer of the flaming flamers!

But no seriously, i'd like to see one of two things occur, a voting system on what type of double weekend we'd like to occur, or a schedule that would tell us ahead of time what is going to occur on each weekend, rather than it being known right beforehand.

Or.......give each and everyone an option to choose which weekend they want, all for themselves!

Want to go vanquishing? Enable double Vanquishing weekend at the log-in screen!

Want to have double Championship points? Activate the GvG-weekend at login!

Want to spend your weekend outdoors and experience RL, don't activate a weekend!

Yay!

More reason to vanquish. Maybe I'll ask some of my guild's non-noobs to come along.

From Regina Buenaobra user talk page about taking sugestions about new weekend events.

"Forgive me if I misinterpreted the original question, but I belive Marisa asked me to create a new thread/topic on the subject, regardless of the existence of current forums topics. --Regina Buenaobra 16:49, 24 July 2008 (UTC)"

Been 5 days, and no thread here, anyone know any threads on other fansites that she has created over this issue?
Btw, a boring weekend that is being repeated over again because it doesn't contribute to a easily maxiable title, ie, a pve weekend that won't give more favor liek the double lb/ss weekend.
