Hi Gaile
I just wanted to add that my sister and I are both ecstatic with the new updates; unfortunately I am now trapped at work and must endure 8 hrs without playing the game. The option to hide the guild cape and other accessories was a great addition to the game. Now people can appreciate my sexy armour. Thank you ArenaNet as Gaile stated You rock!

Another (2?) dev was there taping the action... I didn't see their name, but the mob overtook my screen as I was looking for names. Supposedly it will be on the main site in a week or so...

I was there too at the end... everybody was offering Gaile money and dyes and running and leveling... and the Random guild.

I only took 1 screenie the entire time:


I just looked at it, and realized that there were a few people I've heard of before pictured. Savio, Sai of Winterland, and the 3 GWO members. Small world, eh?

This is the kind of surprise, or change or quasi "event" I was talking about in my instanced vs persistant worlds thread. Go red engine the naysayers, this change of "screenery" rocked my socks when I first laid eyes on it. The Tomb moon is my new desktop 'cause it owns me. The look is fan-go-red-engine-tabulous. It looks like they really put some work into the altered apearances of those places right down to the great npc speech bubbles that pop up. Excellent, I only hope that we can see more of this type of thing, more often. Even if its not on such a grand scale. Maybe even some "limited time only" type quests...But i'm getting ahead of things, THANKS DEVS, KEEP UP THE HARD WORK.

I have to say, the amount of time and effort the devs are putting into this game is something I've never seen in any other game to this day. Good job

Oh, no, I don't think so. I mean, nobody would like that or anything, right? So I mean, it'd be just totally unnoticed 'n' stuff, eh?

I wonder if the devs saw our necro line dancing.....
We had both genders in two lines, ladies in the front, guys in the back(lol).
We had a mesmer drummer too!

Did anything special happen in International? Besides the mass dancing and theme changes?

Oh, gee, NightOwl, that's a very... ummm... generous offer! But you know, I think I'm going to pass, with great appreciation for the vote of confidence! I see myself more as the fun-loving and slightly-wacky Auntie Gaile type. I think maybe aunts get to have more fun.

Oh, no, no, they were talking about Andrew, who was taking the movie in LA. Andrew is our visual asset guy. I'm sure that lots of people know Izzy, don't you worry about that.

Dang, you're right, I think I do! However, I know you'll forgive me if I bake for the team this weekend, right? I'm planning some sort of Halloween treat to thank everyone for his or her hard work on this event. I mean, they really outdid themselves with this, and after all, there's no bigger fan of the team than me.

Pssst, for events, ID is where it's at. Guild Wars is a global game and we're thrilled with that and love visiting with the whole world in our little world.

Hey Gaile. You made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside when you said, "Hi, Soul. "

Anyways, were there any more movies taken after the Frog's Call-Out? I had to leave after that, and when I came back he was gone and you were fixing to log...

Here's a little eye candy for those who missed it (or didn't):





Fun shtuff!
