Ghostfest

GHOSTFEST HAS BEEN MOVED TO LIONS ARCH ASIA TRADITIONAL CHINESE DISTRICT 1



=Ghostfest = "I think that on a night such as this, the mood should be very scary." - Mad King Thorn


 * Ghost of Dhuum


 * Restless and weary rise the seething undead
 * Taken too soon from their soulless beds
 * Longing evermore for sleep nocturnal
 * Pallid, ghostly horrors, wreathed infernal


 * Pity the fools in mourning their loss
 * Who count the graves among their cost
 * The evil one awaits his fortuitous gain
 * Numbers untold, cast into flame


 * The faceless master upon the threshold stands
 * With a flash of the blade born in death’s hand
 * Writhing minions draw from his power
 * Only two minutes 'till midnight’s hour


 * Take the unblemished, who in favor shall be
 * Enslave the innocent from mantle to sea
 * Send them shrieking to their undying rest
 * Into the nightmare upon us, Ghostfest!


 * -Robert


 * Brought to the community by: Adult Entertainment [XXX] and the Sweet Misty Fire [SMF] Alliance.
 * Hosted by: Moxie Java (as the Spirit of Ghostfest)
 * Community Event Location: Lion's Arch Asia Traditional Chinese District 1
 * Date and Time: Saturday October 30th 2010 6pm EST (11pm GMT)

[XXX] and the [SMF] Alliance wish to bring to the community's attention our Halloween event, Ghostfest 2010. We would like to invite all the players of Guild Wars to celebrate in this year's Halloween and everything ArenaNet and its staff have done for the Guild Wars Community. This event will not only carry-on the traditional prizes and games most player held community events tend to run, but we also hope it will be one of the biggest choreographed consumable spams ever. [XXX] and the [SMF] Alliance plan to hand out over 13,000 consumables including Squash Serums, Vials of Absinthe, Sparklers and Champagne Poppers to the participants of Ghostfest and release them all over Lion's Arch in one frightening ghostly display that the Guild Wars community will not soon forget. On top of it we will be recording the whole event to be posted on YouTube so that even the players who could not make it will be able to see the horror of Ghostfest. Each player participating will recieve a share of the consumables and 1 Transmogrifier Tonic free of charge. We will have random creatures handing out Globs of Ectoplasm as well as several contests where players will have a chance to recieve a Miniature Mad King Thorn. The final contest winners will recieve; 1st Place 1 Miniature Dhuum; 2nd Place 1 Set of Fissure of Woe Armor: 3rd Place 1 Pair of Chaos Gloves.
