Can you also look into why the masks look like they were made in MS Paint by a 13 year old, deviantart user who needed three hours to kill while he downloaded the new Van Wilder movie?

Thanks.

I think the hats are OK, but they could have been much better.
I was so hoping for a Top hat this year Been suggested many many times.
Kinda disappointing to get 2 very similar tiny crests... My warrior looks very uncool with it.

come to think about it, none of my male characters look cool with em... These are female crests ffs!!!

Was mentioned in another thread, but we only ever got the four hats once, back in 2006. Haven't had that many again since then, and with GW seemingly winding down, it's unlikely we will again.

Can't say I'm overly impressed with this years, they do look a little rushed and they're don't really stand out. Again, I would have liked something along the lines of the top hat that keeps getting suggested, the ones that look good and stand out have always been the best. But they're not awful, the tiara's may look good on some female characters, and I like that they don't make you bald.

Either they're completely out of ideas, which begs the question how the hell they're going to deal with GW2 (rehashing old GW1 hats would be epic fail unless they're greatly improved upon) or they're simply saving all the "good stuff" for GW2.

Either way, its somewhat disappointing. And the poster who said these are female hats is spot on.

3 hours later and still no Dwayna hat.. This time I was in an even dist in LA. Right now I'm trying Spamadan, seeing if it's still 15 minutes late and hoping for the dumb hat.

The bug happened in LA during the 2nd appearance (3AM PST) too. I had 5 accts in Dwayna district (88) and two in grenths(11). No hats.

Reverse those for the first appearance (2 in Dist 10 for dwayna, 5 in dist 17 for grenth) and got my hats.

I'm just curious..

Who has/had CCs in their inventory during the finale?

Who here doesn't have any CCs during the finale?

To those who DID get their hats, did you have the CCs? Or did you not?

I'm curious if this relys on the CCs, or if we're just in bad-luck right now. Things could change, they could've changed that if you have no Ccs you would get no hat. I know they didn't require you before, but like said, change could've happened.

Got a hat from Dwayna, in Lion's Arch, at the first event (3am PST), but no Grenth hat in the following event (6am PST).

And to the comment above me, I have not farmed a single Wintersday event, and have no Candy Cane Shards, but still got the Dwayna hat in Lion's Arch during the 3am PST event.

Same here. Got the Dwayna (s)hat in LA, zoned to Kama for Grenth, the event didn't even happen. EPIC FAIL

So, went back to LA, idled until the next event, whereupon, in Amer Eng 35, the event went, and no damn Grenth (s)hat.

Typical. Wait all this time, for nothing. Well, almost nothing. At least I got one of the absolutely terrible looking headpieces..I'd go so far as to say I'd rather wear the lupine mask or the damn zombie face paint. Either of those utterly terrible excuses for party hats is better than these unbelieveably pathetic attempts, that really do look as Martin said, done by some spotty noob in paintshop..Hell, the Dwayna Crest doesn't even sit remotely close to my toon's head. Not that I'd really want it to, it's obviously a female item..

Call it a "Crest" all you want. It's a bloody tiara..

Had two accounts, both in euro english districts. One had shards, one didn't. Neither got a hat.

It's always something.

I didn't get a hat twice in a row now. I managed to get every festival hat ever, I'm going to be pissed if I miss this years because of a bug.

I wonder if this is a consistent bug across districts. Could people post district numbers where hats were given out, so we poor hatless sods can try our luck there, later?

Three times now, my main account has failed to get the Dwayna hat (Kamadan, LA, Kamadan). My other account has gotten both hats. My main account did get a Grenth hat from the original LA show.

If my main account misses out on a Dwayna hat (as much as I don't really care for it) because of yet MORE incompetence on ANet's part, then I'm going to be PO'ed. I just want the damn thing so I can turn it into the Festival Hat NPC. I guess it was only a matter of time before the hat-giving got screwed up during an event. ANet has found a way to botch nearly everything else at one time or another. Sheesh.

I wouldn't worry about it. Considering how widespread it is, they'll likely leave an NPC for a week or two after to give out the hats like they have in the past.
