Bought a Scroll of Beserkers Insight for 65k thinking its is awesome ( 1 hour after update) the next day it was worth 5k
Rush 2 Guildmates from Ascalon to henge of Denravi just that they decide to delete their characters the next day and redo it.
Winnin 13 times flawless in the Random arena and then in the 14th round the monk hits the wrong skill and we loose flawless :-(

I jumped in with henchies to get spike trap when a gold max damage axe drops! Then I id it and there is nothing else on it, it's just a max damage axe that for some reason has a "value" of 292 gold...

Out of seriously 100+ UW runs, I've gotten 4 ecto total. You're more unlucky, but I feel your pain.
Here's mine, I'm missing one superior necro rune, I've purchased 17 unided necro runes trying to get just that one. 14/17 were curses and the other 3 were death, not a single blood (the one that I'm missing).

-Accidently sold a gold unident armor to the merchant. It was after a mission and my inventory was full. I had two bags and a pouch.
-Accidently bought two of the same 1.5k chest armor. Lesson learned. Don't buy armor when you tired, lol.

Purchased an expert salvage kit and immediately sold it back to the merchant by accident for half the price.
Running from henge to riverside, my teammates all spoke to the guy and "appeared" to log off...when really they just got teleported away.
I almost sent a nasty whisper to them...but i resisted until i remebered what to do, lol.
"Damn teammates quit"...nope, my bad.
Spent 10 minutes rounding up griffons, minotaurs and sand elementals but got hit with a sneaky distract from a rockshot. This took my DP to 30% and my health to...1 point.
Oh well, back to town.
When i first got the game, i sold a black dye to the merchant because i only thought it was worth 1gp.

1. Spent a few hours walking from Piken Square to Grendich Courthouse only to be killed by Devouer just outside the door while Stefan (henchie) stood "stuck" behind a bush and out of Devouer sight so they left him alone. Of course we did not res and I had to start over.
2. Made the trip from Ice Caves of Sorrow to Granite Citadel, only to be within sight of the gates and my computer crashed GW due to full virtual memory.
3. Accidently salvaged purple armor instead of identifying it first... the rune I would have got turned into 2 bolts of cloth...
4. Wasted silver and black dye on my starter elemental robes when I first got the game...
5. Bought two sets of the same armor gloves, wasting my money and my materials cause it didn't seem like I had bought one on my first "click" of the craft button.

I got all the way to Althea's Ashes on my old level 7 character without dying ONCE, then as I went to click on the thing that completes the quest, I got disconnected.
LOL.

OK, I've decided.....

ha! Only reason I know is because I was lucky enough to have a guild mate on ventrillo when it happened to me and I was frustrated enough to complain on the voice chat.
Glad I could help someone a bit somehow.

Not GuildWars-related or particularly unlucky, but it is ironic. I've spilled coffee on my shirt at work twice in past 3 years. Both times was the only times I ever had a change of shirt with me. Heh.

Found dye in presearing and sold it for 1gp... i had no clue what it did, or what it was worth..
used a regular salvage kit on a purple rune... once again, i had no clue what purple meant

The most unlucky thing would definately have to be running Mineral Springs a good 30+ times with my monk in order to get the skill Shield of Judgement. Took me a good week of running that stupid place before the boss even spawned.
Second most unlucky would be running up there with my mesmer to get Ineptitude. It only took 3 days, but it was still annoying.
Third most unlucky thing would be running up to Mineral Springs with my ranger to get a collector bow and getting Err=7 just before I'm about to collect, though it only happened twice in a row, so it wasn't so bad as the other two.
Why do I get the feeling Mineral Springs hates me (if it's even possible for an area to hate someone) ?

Helping a guild mate with a mission, some guy goes AFK at the start of the mission and never returns, and the guild mate i was helping lagged out half way though the mission.. i tried to help the other guy but 3 people and a hench were not enough to win that race against the white mantle

Bought sup runes of fire and air for PvE fire/PvP air ele builds respecively.
Accidentally applied superior fire rune to max armour storms eye (instead of flame). In my defence: runes all look the same. /doh
Used expert salvage to get my rune back and got....2 piles of glittering dust.

lets see
the other day I went into FoW with a group
we had like 3 monks I think... anyways one of the monks just suddenly disappeared towards the beginning and after about half an hour he comes back and says he has to go and drops
and then the second warrior drops(I was the first) so yea, that whole run was screwed... only good drop I got was a bow that could have been worth more if it didnt have a 13 req... while one of the monks got 3 shards
of course the luckiest thing that happened was I got a green item while playing with henchies... though it was only Thorgalls Shield... but I still got a laugh

Was heading to SF with a friend to do the Kilroy quest. On the way there we kill a boss and I get a green. He asks to see it so I toss it on the ground and I get disconnected. No problem. He'll just pick it up and give it back to me when I log back on, right? Nope. We're on the same isp, both our connections dropped. Very nice timing.

I've found a total of 3 superior vigor runes in this game. All three were found before the patch so they always salvage, I lost all 3.
This game owes me some runes, me thinks.

Well, personally topping my list of "unluckiest things" is also the thing I happened to post about in "biggest jerk you've ever met" thread.
Basically in a nutshell: I went on a FOW group, an Ele/Mes complains the drops suck and then asks us on every "remains" drop to give them to him because he is not getting anything -- and when we say no, he trains the whole part of FoW by the first quest with hero on the group, effectively wiping us all out and making me lose 1 plat, all because he was a spoiled, rotten, brat.
