RUNNER-UP WINNER: Jedediah Strong

Top 10 Personality/Physical Traits of a Guild Wars Factions Junkie:
  1. Currently owns at least three active Guild Wars accounts in order to get all new Factions Armor for every primary profession without having to delete anyone.
  2. Has a recently discovered fondness for giant sea turtles.
  3. Had the diamonds in all their jewelry replaced with jade and believe that the "Petrified Forest" in Arizona should be officially re-designated as a holy shrine.
  4. Turned down an offer of 30K in gold, twice, for that green Ogre Slaying Knife with the really low stats they got in Tombs because they believe it may magically become more valuable after Factions goes live.
  5. Has developed a gastric ulcer and is combating high blood pressure due to the stress from trying to decide which faction to side with...Luxon or Kurzick?
  6. Was more than willing to call in sick two days in a row (even though that BIG presentation was due to Corporate) in order to spend time with a Guildmate mapping out an exact plan on how to get their Ranger/Ritualists a pet Black Moa during the 24 hour "pre-release" period in order to be the first ones to have one after retail.
  7. Have been to the emergency room six times for injuries received from walking and running headlong into stationary objects while wearing their Ritualists "eye-covering headgear" because they want to learn how to be "more in touch with nature".
  8. Submitted a formal request to the Food and Drug Administration to have Red Bull, Twinkies, and coffee added to the "food pyramid".
  9. Believe that by invading, occupying, and setting up "camp" in their neighbors backyard and "holding" it for a designated time period that they have thus demonstrated "ownership" and can officially expand their property lines until such time as the neighbor can "retake" said territory.
  10. Has an actual map of the continent of Cantha permanently tattooed on their back, which they plan to have updated on a regular basis as more of the new land is explored and the details are revealed to them. Really.

EDIT: Please feel free to post yours! Even if it wasn't a winner I can tell you that it was great to read through all the entries and see your creativity (yes even the inappropriate ones... you know who you are :P)

This is actually true. I just finished a course in property in law school and this is called adverse possession. If you occupy and use someone else's property for a specified period of time and they do nothing to take it back, it eventually becomes yours. Of course the period of time you have to hold it before they try to kick you is usually 15-20 years; so its practically impossible to do.

lol...nice entries...here's mine:

Reasons to buy GW:Factions

- If you don’t, you’ll miss out on that “New Game Smell”

- Because the Assassin’s ectomorphic body model is a more realistic depiction of an athletic female body......and the ritualist has huge cans...

- so, if a warrior/monk is a wa/mo, and a mesmer/monk is a mes/mo, what's an assassin/monk?...

- This time, you won’t have to trudge through the snow following some uber-n00b with a FDS and an authority complex.....and no Rurik either!!

- Lots of new places for people to meet, form groups, and /dance naked for tips...

- Because, with the new Tengu henchman, you can take that ooooh so entertaining “bird bark” with you everywhere you go...

- Help the Hippies kill the Goths or help the Goths kill the Hippies...either way ya can’t lose...

- Because there really aren’t enough kids running around dressed all in black, living in dark places, and listening to depressing music...

- 83(4I_I$3, !ph j00 [)0|\|’7, |-|0\/\/ \/\/!|_|_ j00 |<|\|0\/\/ \/\/|-|47's 1337?!?11!?eleven!!1?

- Because, if you don’t, it means the terrorists have won...
