Cool party idea, and ill be certain to attend ... seeing im doing guildmag, i will probably just do that 'attend the party' ... though knowing how events work, and seeing you agreed to be on 'stand by' for the GuildMag party, if there is an emergency situation during The Ball, throw me a PM

Seeing im allready giving away a couple of 100k's towards the GuildMag party im not sure if there be much left to donate, ill have to check and see what im left with in the week prior to the ball ... Goodluck with organising everything!

Thank you so much Elemental for your incredibly generous donation!

Update the original post with more information, should be pretty much finalized at this point. As always, feel free to PM me; "Countess Reapera" or "M A L I B U Barbie" for more information or to make a donation of your own!

I'd also like to announce that Sparky Sharkinu has volunteered to be our first event photographer! I'll be adding his name back into the OP when I do the next update. That doesn't mean were not looking for more photographers though, I'm sure he'll need help across all the districts.

Haha, don't get your hopes up - It appears my account has been hacked/banned. All good, hopefully I can get it resolved before the event.

Done selecting and cropping the screenshots. Here:

http://picasaweb.google.ro/108652074...=direc tlink#

I tried to catch most important moments. Most pictures are from District 1, but there are some(not too many) from other districts. Also the picture have no description. Sorry for that, but adding comments and description to 200 screenshots o_0...

And if anyone is interested, here I have an archive with all screenshots(all uncropped and including some that are not in the album) - 140MB; around 400 files.

It was a lot of fun to come out of retirement and return to the Ball as a host. I was very pleased with the outcome, and everything went fairly smoothly. Congrats again to all our winners, especially to the two 2010 Guru Scavenger Hunt winners who walked away with Mantle and Shining Blade costume codes.

Thanks Chilos, it was the first district for me to ever manage and I was glad I could help out as long as it lasted!
I hope GW2 events will be as fun as this or even better!

I think I've updated the wiki to a finalized state. Sparky and Agenda did a wonderful job as photographers and it was great to be able to use their work to let others who couldn't attend experience the ball.

The ball was fantastic, it went better than I could have hoped. Thank you all for attending, or helping or anything else that contributed to the ball. The GW community really shines at these player events, and especially at this ball!
