Whatever it is, I'm going to be sure to make a pano of any modified locations. I wish I had started making the panos before Halloween...

I want Eugaet's dice for x-mas, or a Razorstone or a rare Crystalline Sword for x-mas!

I wish they'd release actual content instead of completely pointless stuff like the haloween update which adds no value to the overall game. Imagine all the time programmers and designers could have spent on quest/missions/PvP.

I hope there would be a small, VERY hard new small area, where you can find Santa Claus, and if you get the bastard, he drops one of the parts of his Santa Claus suit

I already dream about spamming: 'Healing Monk LFG: WANTED: Santa Claus!'

Exactly, how do you make those and keeping them straight enough to piece together?

I hope they don't do anything as stupid as Halloween. What a total waste of time.

What would be nice is an early release of Chapter Two, with the rediculous ASSassin class removed.

If they do give out anything, it needs to be like the halloween items. Easy to acquire, and the wearable stuff (think pumpkin mask for halloween, now santa hat maybe for christmas) make it customized for the player only. No need to turn those items into expensive rares, as im sure some people would LOVE to see. I also hope that next year they repeat the same items, and add some. One to keep the content new, and another for the last year items to still be available.

it would really be cool if you dont get a hat, but a santa beard you can put on
imagine: my female ele with a nice white beard
My armor and hair is white too so it should look really cool

If anyone needs a spike ranger for Tombs, a tank or trapper for UW / FoW just PM me ingame ^^

I'm sure whatever they do, it'll be awesome - just like Halloween.

Wouldn't it be funny if they gave out novelty weapons [not decent ones - fun ones]

1. Find good location and viewing angle, take screenshots every 20 degrees or so (I don't use them all, but it's better to have too many than not enough).
2. Set matching points between screenshots (I like to have at least 15-20 matching points between neighboring shots).
3. Set vertical and horizontal guides (helps straighten them).
4. Skew/warp screenshots to match points.
5. Blend screenshots.
6. Looks good, goto 7. Else, goto 2.
7. Crop and trim. Add text, logos.

I have a few programs that automate some things for me, of course, but I still have to tweak quite a bit by hand. I think the post-Sear one took me maybe 6 hours total, which gave me a false sense of how easy it was until I did pre-Sear next and took a week to tweak it. I'm sure it'd go quicker if I had something better than a 1Ghz PC.

Anyway, back on-topic.

I've been doing it anyway, but I may step up the freebie rare give-aways this month. So until ANet announces something, that's something I've got planned. Maybe I'll run around and sing carols, too.

Quick question. It isn't Winter in Europe or Korea, is it? Will there be different seasons represented in those servers?

Yes, yes it is; along with the rest of the Northern Hemisphere.

And Europe knows about snow... oh does it ever...

I'd like a nice santa cap for my necro, I'd think she'd look cute in it.

Maybe we could get candy cane weapons, imagine a two handed one eh? now that would be big.
