At the moment it is impossible for me to make my predictions, and the GvG tournament is only 2 hours away. I know I shouldn't leave it to the last minute but I expect there are other people having the same problem. Must... get... free moneys!

Nice picture btw, TF2 may be the best game ever....

Also...thats why u do it the day before xD, But no worries, it will fix itself before then...maybe...

EDIT: wow...that is extremely slow, i cant even get to the log in screen. They may need to change that...But then again it is free money so....no complaints i guess :0

Finally at log in, yah it just takes a while....you can get it done, just may take a bit

Bleh, if this doesn't let up, I won't be getting free keys this month. The Xunlai house page won't load for me at all.

The whole guildwars.com is not loading ,well tha main page is but antthing after that just FAILS.
Does'nt matter if it 3 days or 3 hours it still sould be up for voting.
Looks like this is the first time i wont be able to PARTICIPATE in a in game feature. Slippery Slope IMO.

Who says I'm after the Zkeys..? And the feature not being here when I bought the game doesn't change a thing. Besides, as long as I'm allowed to vote (I still have 1.5h) it should be up, running and working, regardless of how close it is to the deadline.

Go get laid or something. /facepalm

I wanted to change some of my votings in XTH, managed to log in, but going to the GvG voting screen didn't work.
Now I just get the page load error no matter how many times I try to refresh/load the page.

You could try this if you can't login manually, maybe you'll have better luck?

Not working for me either. I usually vote within the last 1-2 hrs to make sure I don't miss somebody that qualifies the last minute. I've been trying for 3 hrs now and no luck. I sometimes make it past the log in screen, and after that... it times out.

I kept peeking here in Riverside wondering when the first thread about this would pop up

You've had ages to make your predictions, it's not like you can only make them the day before.

It's like complaining about traffic during rush hour, get there earlier -> so no, Anet's servers are fine, the problem is on your end.

same issue fail programming on the new system ftl imo they should call it theyre fault and award everyone the same points they earned last month as it will be the fault of the site.

oh and for the flamers yes everyone could put on predictions a day or a week in advance but what does that acheive when the potaential winner qualifies in the last tourney before the mat thats not how its designed. and the xth is a game "feature" not a bonus if you suck at predicting then you get nothing but it rewards people who actually pay attention.


hopefully if the xth isnt fixed before the mat they will give everyone the same points as last month to be fair!

Free or not free. Should have done earlier or not. Doesn't matter.

This is part of Guildwars, and part of Guildwars that is not working. It should be fixed. Preferably before time has expired (Or extend the time due to the problem).

Well they cant really extend it cause mATs cant really be extended due to time issues. But it should be fixed. It is a feature but it doesnt mean that if u suck u get nothing. My friend has no idea what gvg is. All they do is look at the forum here each month and copy/paste onto XTH

As for rewarding same as last month. Part of guildwars is not working and part of life is unfairness....deal with it....its one month and 20 zkeys maybe? Im upset that i havnt made mine but im not complaining....it happens

Did the GvG Prediction deadline just got extended up to 97 minutes or am I missing something?

I was wondering that myself... then I thought "well, they fixed it and allowed some extra time", and the reality hit again: still not working.

oh well, you live you learn.

Either way.....thats a ridiculous amount of zkeys...


About the timer....wat was it supposed to be at? Isnt it supposed to be at 97 or no?

Originally it's suppose to be closed in 15 minutes (unless I messed up because of summertime). It's still not fixed though...

Well, guess some of us don't make it this month. Have a guildmate who waited until this morning and can't get in now.

Hopefully, they will have this fixed before next month's tournament. This new system doesn't seem to have the ability to handle large loads as the old one did.

Or they can give us the average of every monthly predict we made.



example, u predicted for 10months:

1st month: 105rp
2nd month: 130rp
3th month: 80rp
4th month: 105rp
5th month: 130rp
6th month: 100rp
7th month: 90rp
8th month: 110rp
9th month: 105rp
10th month: 125rp

This would result in 108rp for the month that u've not been able to vote due to siteproblems .
Looks pretty fair, don't u think?

You can complain, because it's been here and it has been working before. It is not free stuff, I don't know how you think it is. You pay for Guild Wars and with that money they develop stuff like this.

Yes, but unlike the Free Storage Pane problem, they can't extend the prediction voting. What could they do? Cancel the Tournament because some peoples predictions can't be made. I don't think the participating guilds would be very happy about that.

I'm having the same issue. I've been trying to log in for some 4 or 5 hours now, to no avail.

Oh well. I knew I should've done it last night.

the whole point is yes we "all" could have done the predictions earlier. but should we "have" to? I did my predictions 2 hours before closing last month with no problems at all same as my friends. the issue is this month the "new" system failed and has cost a lot of people reward points. its not the peoples fault its the new systems fault . you can be childish and dismissive and say well you should have done it earlier. hindsight is bloody wonderful isnt it. everyone that tried to put them on in the last 4 hours had no idea that annet would let us down yet again with poorly thought out infrastructure on the new so called "improved " system.

again "nice joke annet"

Oh well deadline over (or is it?) . Guess we just wait to see how they'll respond to the matter. Somehow I'm thinking they'll do something funny like give people who were not able to cast predictions for GvG double TRP's for HB preds. lolanet go go go.
