sounds to me like they're trying to keep people in the "head start" event from actually getting a HEAD START on anything productive.

Those of you who were disappointed to learn that you could not pre-order Factions might try calling your retailers again. Some have gotten a few more of the boxes in stock. More importantly, today we sealed the deal for retailers to offer Factions Pre-order keys through their online stores. (See links on the Day of the Tengu page.) These are new keys, brand new today. So if they didn't have them, or couldn't give them, they can now. I just followed a link and found stores offering other goodies, too!Hope to see you at Day of the Tengu! ![]() |

It's sad, I'm seriously thinking of fiegning illness to stay home for the event on thursday.
and for JMFD

At periodic intervals throughout the course of the day's event, be sure that you visit Shing Jea Monastery, where you will find that, if you have a sufficient number of Naga Fangs, the fangs will be converted into wearable Tengu Masks. These coveted items—customized just for you—will be unique across all Guild Wars campaigns!

I'm just going to throw in with the rest of us who thinks that having the head-start on Thursday and the official start on Friday is a completely sucky decision. It could barely be more inconvenient, both for people who work and people who go to school. I'm sure, though, that it's rather convenient for those who work on the game itself, as the number of people joining up on Thu and Fri will be mitigated a bit, and the dev team can start pumping out the inevitable needed fixes during the regular work week.
So, for me, the head start is pretty much a non-event.

I can't wait to get a mask for my ranger. Can we start new characters in Cantha and get masks for them the same day too? Because im making a A/W that I want to get a mask for.
I have the preorder and everything so I'm good to go for the mask but I do agree that it's kind of a bad call to have an event on that day. There could be stability issues for one... and I love in game events but having a day headstart is reward enough if you ask me. I rather the move this in-game event back a month or maybe make it this weekend or next weekend so everyone can join in.
Heh, I just got my pre-order key. I actually got it delievered a few weeks ago to my home, but I'm here at college. I didn't think I'd miss much from missing early access, but I like the sound of this new headgear. I had to get both my parents trying to figure out what the access code was over the phone.

My school is taking a trip to Washington. I have the rest of today to finish amassing my gold and ascend my mesmer, then I have tomorrow in school, and then I'll be home for 4 days (I'm not going). This will be awesome...
edit: poor you Vahn. They can't hold me back unlesss I miss over 30 days and have below average grades. I've missed around 14 and have awesome grades. Do they work like that at your school?
