User:Burning Freebies/Halloween09 guru

This is the guru layout for the Mad King Freebies Ghoulish Suprise event i am hosting on October 31st (suprise suprise). Im posting it as it contains more info about the event. This page will be added to the guildwarsguru forum on October 1st, or sometime there abouts. Have fun!

Some things on this page may look a bit weird because of the wikis line thingy (where you have to leave a blank line between things so they dont appear on the same line).

Mad King Freebies Hallowed revenge!

 * Banner to go here when created

Introduction

It is nearly that time of year-Halloween. As the rotting corpses awaken from their coffins, as ghouls come to fill the midnight sky with tricks and treats, where will you be? For this year, one non mortal is on a mission of revenge in Lions Arch international district 1. Will you join his party and take sides? For those who come beware, tricks and treats can come at any time. Mad King Freebies warns people with fragile hearts to keep clear-this event is not for the weak hearted. ~James

Muhuhahaha! Halloween is almost here! For all who can come to International district 1 of Lions Arch this Hallow’s eve, I promise a special treat, and a very special trick to one person. I tell you, this Halloween will be a very special one! Just grab you Halloween costumes and prepare to lose your head in all the trick & treating fun! ~Mad King Freebies

Key Activities (smilies will be added)

Halloween themed stencil art competition

Last Wintersday, Daniel Frozenwind launched a new form of Guild Wars art-stencil art. In his competiton, players were instructed to drop bags of 1 gold in a way that they formed a work of art. This year, i plan to resurrect this form of art in a Halloween Themed competition.
