Kamadan[edit]

Wow! I can't belive I didn't get my hat!!!Gregory The Avenger 08:50, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

This hat is weaksauce.76.113.152.106 08:56, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Doesn't this look like The White Witch's tiara from The Chronicles of Narnia?

Weaksauce is the best way to describe it :/. Apparently the design team spent all their time doing the costumes this year. Karate User Karate Jesus KJ for sig.png Jesus 09:15, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Don't know why you people are complaining, these hats are ten times better than last Winyersday's. Tbh I'd take this over a Grentch Cap any day. Regardless, Wintersday hats have sucked since 2007, It's nothing new. :/ Pariah talk 23:23, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
It's just a crappier version of the ice crown.
Seems to be a bug in LA as well. Annoying. Maybe they should put a collector for candy shards or something for those who glitch out? (I'm going to be busy for most of the period this year, so if it gets fixed after I've been forced to leave the computer running AFK and I get disconnected, said fix isn't going to help me much...) Draxynnic 11:18, 1 January 2010 (UTC) (PS. On that note, can anyone cite a district where the Grenth crowns HAVE been given out?)

i uploaded clearer ones for this and the snow crown.--Neil2250 User Neil2250 sig icon5.jpg 10:17, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

No hat[edit]

Just sat in American Dist 13 of LA... no hat. Didn't have a problem with a Dwayna winning dist. Seems to be a wide spread problem with the Grenth hats, really. Serious bummer. I hope ANet does something to help out those who are missing out on their Ice Shard Crest because of a glitch. 98.148.35.11 11:29, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

I was just in American Dist 22 in LA and I didn't get a hat either. Everyone is pretty angry about it! (The 11:00 event, 1 January 2010 GMT)

I can confirm that this is a bug... American Dist 91 LA no one got a Hat dispite winning the game 2.5k v 44 --Butch 11:36, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

I was in LA American dis 55 and got no Hat, but some people in the district did. The same thing also happened to my other account in Kam. Some got hats and others didn't. I hope this gets fixed soon. Dragonlord Tony 11:49, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

I can also confirm this bug, several of my guild members as well as myself failed to receive an Ice Shard Crest upon Grenth winning (in an odd numbered district). We were all in different districts and towns. A couple of my guild members were even going for the Dwayna hat and failed to receive it when Dwayna won. There were people in the same district who received their hats though, so it seems to be wide spread but not absolute.--RunningInTheMist 11:57, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

No hat in LA American Dis 9, either. Not a single person there confirmed that they received a hat when asked, just a bunch of confused and disappointed unfortunates (it is true that some players may have received one while AFK and thus unable to answer, but the problem is affecting a great many people). I think we can all agree that the glitch is confirmed. Aellur 12:09, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I'm going to start collating data as I can on who got crowns and who didn't:

No: 43

Second appearance: ("No data" districts were either full or there was no response to questioning. Feel free to add in your own experiences, experiences in Kamadan, and experiences in future appearances.)

LA US districts:

Yes: 69, 83

No: 3, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 45, 47, 51, 55, 59, 61, 65, 67, 71, 75, 89, 91, 96

Comments: Not related to wearing dwayna hat. One player claimed that it might be harmed by wearing an old festival hat. Another player apparently lost their helm.

Kamadan not surveyed due to trail being far too cold. Draxynnic 12:45, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

First Appearence in LA - Inter d4 - i received the hat on both accounts, went to Kamadon AE D 31 and recieved none on either of my accounts, switched off to AE D 89 in LA and for second event* still have yet to receive the Grenth hat --74.140.110.92 13:11, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Added #45 to your list. Markus Clouser User Markus Clouser signature img.jpg 13:30, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
I just went thru the third event in LA AE 69, and I didn't receive the Grenth hat on either accounts, I took my dwayna one off and put it in my storage just in case that weirdly affected it >_< --74.140.110.92 14:14, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Sounds like everyone who got one hat can't get the other. 24.197.253.243 14:16, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
I have both. -- My Talk Lacky 14:20, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Not a Hat but a Costume Headpiece[edit]

I think it should be noted that this year's "Festival Hat" isn't actually a hat, as it has been in past years, but rather a Costume Headpiece, that fits over your armor but visually removes whatever helmet/mask/aura/tattoo/headwrap/crest/hood or FORMER Festival Hat you may be wearing. I will put this in the Notes section. 99.241.34.49 14:50, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

All the festival hats are now [as far as i am aware] to be worn in the costume headpiece area now, So all armor will only go on the regular place where they have been placed before the Costume update.--74.140.110.92 15:34, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
actually my 2009 imperial dragon mask still equips in the old helmet spot.114.157.160.88 16:07, 1 January 2010 (UTC)Ryoko Yonekura

district 59 kamadan didn't recieve the hat -unsigned

Of course it does because you havent gotten a new one from the hat maker. User DrogoBoffin sig icon.png Drogo Boffin 16:10, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Fix Needed[edit]

Even if not spend most of time in design, but do it on the (payed) costume thing, at least try to fix the bug so the people out there can get they hat if the want. Also like some one sayis use a collector if not or some what...-unsigned

fixed[edit]

seems like they fixed!--Dark Magic Lady 20:27, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

According to the twitter, yeah. Unfortunately, I won't be able to make any more sessions without being AFK, so, well... Let's just hope my connection remains stable while I'm gone. Draxynnic 20:40, 1 January 2010 (UTC) (PS Or not - they'll be running a redux as predicted.)
No worries, there will be a redo, they just didn't say when. User Rose Of Kali SIG.jpgRose Of Kali 00:50, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Hence my post-signing note. :P Draxynnic 07:01, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

coincidence?[edit]

Ice Shard Crest? --adrin User Adrin mysig.jpg 08:12, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Obsidian Shard -> Obsidian Burrower Jaw, because he has a big mouth? :OOO User Felix Omni Signature.pngelix Omni 08:13, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Shards of Orr, Shard Storm, Sand Shards. I'm sure they just like the word shard more than all other video games. Adrin even has his own desert. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 08:16, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
