Has anyone actually found any gingerbread shields/candy weapons/new monsters/new quests? If so, please tell me where!
Xenrath
Haven't had a chance to look yet, but please can someone post when events happen e.g. the Pumpkin guy turned up every 3 hours at LA. This will help folks be at the events, who might otherwise miss them due to work/family/meetings etc.

Just as a side note, it's not Xmas/Christmas this event is Wintersday
Don't complain if that's your first thought - remember not everyone who plays GW is a Christian. (In all seriousness it's near as, though the patch notes and it being "Wintersday" lead me to believe there won't be a Santa in the traditional Western sense, but maybe a big Snowman doing the rounds...)

Barinthus
*Hands on window, face pressed against* :drool:
"Daddy Daddy, look! It's so wonderful! Can I go in there please??"
"No, little Barinthus, you cannot. We don't have a PC, only MacIntoshes at home, you know that. You'll have to wait until January 3rd when you get back to your own home."
"Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!! Nooooooooot faaaaaaair!"
Lucky you all! Do keep pictures coming!

Remember to keep checking back through the next couple of weeks as the event will progress and grow over time, with lots of things for you to collect and do. Celebrate Wintersday in Tyria with us all, and don't forget to take some time to observe the occasional PvP match.

They have remarkably similar holiday seasons in Tyria to Earth

OMG, gotta learn how to stay alive with only 2 hours sleep a day
Mistcane
So can you not watch the Hall of Hero battles? I watched ZpZg from The Underworld to Burial Mounds then a few other maps. Then I couldn't see them anymore, 10 minutes later they won Hall :{ Why can't we watch the Hall battles?
Racthoh
There is a 15 minute delay before the match will show up, so prehaps you were checking too soon?
fenix
Over the next couple of weeks eh? Sounds good, at least people won't miss anything
coldslammer
i dont get it...
if its called Tyria why is it when ascending the ghostly hero says "will burn away your earthly inperfections", he mentions the word a few other times too.

Lexar
Yeah I sort of interpreted Tyria as the realm of Tyria, a sort of really big place, maybe as big as several continents, sort of like eurasia in comparison, but not the name for the planet.
Come to think of it, it's kinda funny how they all speak english. Maybe we shouldn't think too much about these things.

Dare I ask.. how do we get christmas hats and presents? xD

Observer mode.
<3.
Its so much fun, and in the chatter of Observers you occasionaly meet some faces of GWG (hey Yichi, Sav). The only downside was that one guy was in every match watching himself (not bad) and cheering constantly for himself (that's bad).
I was expecting Echo Mending from one of the top tier guilds, but the Minion build with pumpkin hats from Te was also entertaining.
Oh yeah, there is also a Winter Update, but I've kind of forgotten about it with Observer mode.

I am enjoying Observer mode. I am hoping that some of the curious PvE'ers who check it out will get turned on to PvP.
Caged Fury
I'm a curious PvE'er and can't wait to finish work so I can go check out the Observer mode. Whether or not it'll entice me into PvP...well, we'll just have to wait and see.
phreek
Yup, I'm in the same boat.
I'm still on my first real character (PvE) and not really used to the game yet, but I do want to play PvP at some point.

Although private PvP arena for guilds would had been a better choice. Maybe we get it in the near future.

Too bad.. I was planning to computer a few hours less then the usual 8 hours a day in a vacation, but this forces me to play 12 hours a day instead.. Too bad.
phreek
Yeah, you don't get to open your presents before Wintersday / Christmas day, it ruins the surprise!

Observer mode is very nice although I only looked at it for a few minutes, but is it also possible to look to my own guild?? (not top-100)
I like the looks of Ascalon!!!!!! They are really cool, good job Anet!
