Changing the weekend events?

I was thinking today about the weekend events,Since they just get repeated over and over
why not try a few new ones?
Had thoughts of maybe one weekend bring back the old necro that could do 25 minions etc..
yeh there might not be any purpose to it but would be a bit of fun for a weekend.

Or the old ursan for a weekend..Ill admit id,I enjoyed the odd ursan grp..There might be a bunch of ursan grps forming in uw for
a weeknd but no different from perma grps atm.

Basically bring back some of the nerfed things from the early days,(not that ursan was that long ago).
IM sure there would be a bunch of stuff people remember that youd like to bring back for a weekend.
Something for us old timers that went through all those changes maybe?.

sound like a cool idea i want a day where everyone is turned into animals and forced to fight eachother in towns

Merge with this?

/notsigned because of the confusion it will cause for new players(yea, those still matter).

As was already pointed out, there's already an active thread on the topic.

Furthermore, I'd rather actually have useful weekends such as double faction or lockpick drops.

Granted, bringing back ursan would be great as we'd get back to the grand old days of 6ursan/2hb UW clears, which would arguably make it a very useful weekend once SF gets nerfed back to where it came from, but the less of that the better imo.

I am all for a change-up in the weekend events but I think It would be nice to be able to have some type of a choice similar to the Z-missions etc where you could talk to a few different NPCs and they would give you a bonus. That way you are not stuck with just one and you can switch back and forth. I would also like to see them last longer than the weekend. Maybe have them switch every week since some weekends I don't play as much.

We haven't had a gamer weekend (with boardwalk) in ages.. I'd rather that was put on again sometime..

My bad i shouldve searched better.

Yeah, I remembered that thread pointed out earlier. Almost exactly like this thread.

anyway

/notsigned, it'd be fun but Anet can't even do a skill balance.

On the minion issue, this could be solved by splitting minion mastery into pvp/pve. I hated when they killed verata's sacrifice and capped the number of minions.
