Over on the anet blog:

And just to prove how awesome ID 9 was (many thanks again to all the awesome Guru peeps who in ID 9 & 10 hosted and gave away our own inventories!! ) they have a pic of the ribbon we did with Emily!



Was a fantastic event. Thanks to Malibu Barbie and all the other organizers who made this the best and largest GW community event to date!

not to turn this into a screen shot thread.


Sorry about the upside down-ness :\

Brave men run pink!

From what Emily, Martin, and others told me about the event (I was out of town, so could not attend myself), it sounded like quite a spectacular turn out. It's awesome to see the community coming together for a good cause. Grats to the the Pink Day in LA organizing team for making the event an overwhelming success.

Over 30 districts from what i remember.

It topped out at 36 international districts, iirc.

and noone stole the money this time?

forgot what event the guy stole funds from but glad all went well, gj!!

I have a question that rung up in my head.

Is the new pink dye a temporary one-time thing or will it eventually become a permanent addition to the game? Or if the pink dye will something that will occur in a yearly basis like Halloween?

Anyways it's really nice for both the players and ArenaNet to help increase the awareness of breast cancer. I hope there is a cure for cancer in general in the future.

I'm not surprised.

After all, boobiers are very important in GW, from the Assassin-sized to the Norn-sized, all count and are to be protected.

At least that's what I heard during the event: Over 500 chat lines saying "Save the boobies!".

I didn't even know about this event. I would have attended otherwise. Where was it advertised?

On Guildwars.com?

hey I was in that ribbon...somewheres down on the right end---

I am so glad this went over well, when I first read about it in the community works section (and went to the donation page) I saw little going on (so yeah I donated).....

but I think it was waaay better than anyone imagined it would be, 36 districts and with anets pink dye collector----wow just wow!

It shows to me that even we gamers DO care! (I need a tissue now)

That event was not only helpful to alot of people, but really fun as well! Made me glad I had logged on even for just a few hours to hang out in the districts...and bought a ridiculous amount of that awesome pink dye

Next year Prostate Cancer Awareness day yes? Good initiative, worthy of a followup imho.

thx to all that donated to save the boobies

Very awesome. It reminds me of when all the UO shards held memorial events for 9/11.
