What if somebody by accident hit the delete button instead of the send button? That could happen- eh?

I imagine it’s going something like this around the office.

Guys, remember time zones are very important when you read posts from developers.

The correct time zone to look at is: “Valve Time”

You could stretch to a week. Past this and they may have changed their minds about the whole thing.

Maybe they’ve nerfed it and prizes are now…..

They let the skritt handle the prizes.. Right now, all anet employees are chasing all the skritt that took off with one skin each.

Actually, a video of that chase would be the real prize

In due time, all will serve the asura.

Ashandar, I had to dig up my password just so I could tell you how much your post made me laugh. It is a gray, cold, afternoon in my neck of the woods here in Central Texas, so the laugh was greatly appreciated…and you are correct, that video would be a keeper.

And gee, I too am wondering where are our precious Halloween skins got off to.

As someone said above, I pray to the Spirits of the Wild, and to the Six Gods, that our raffle tickets were not deleted by accident :(

Not that I expect to win anything as I only gave the Skritt a small pawful of tickets..but still…

Lisa-Off to the game.

People are starting (15mins ago) to link Halloween weapon skins from raffle wins. Source: ally guilds. Can we get a Red Tag to confirm this?.. I mean the Dev started this post, how about not treating us like worms on a hook and update your own thread once a week after an announcement like that.

2,850g for the 11 ghastly shield skins currently on. Guild got one earlier. Man that is an insane amount of gold to get due to RNG. Makes my 4g look so tiny.

Maybe anet could do a weekly raffle so we might win a legendary, cuz unless we get ridiculous RNG luck like one of them skins we got no chance!

I got… a Mini Llama! (?)

I really did. Not sure why. I had already won two (one for winning a match in Tournament of Glory, and one that exact same day for winning a Twitch chat giveaway – I’m sorry everyone else, I thought I would be able to give that 2nd Llama to a friend!), so this is my third and I cannot share it as it’s Account Bound. But it was sent out to me at the same time these weapons were sent out and I don’t know what prompted this Llama to be sent.

If Polymock 2 one day comes out and we can have a team of multiples, I’ll have an unstoppable 3 Llama Squad.

The prices are hardly dropping at all. Looks like either many people use the skins for themselves, cant afford the listing fee or went inactive.

If the lottery is already, why not notify all participants that they did not Won … Not to mention the consolation prize. Because I brought about 300+ (Shiny Foil Candy Wrapper) and sit in the hope that not all the prizes handed out.

825 raffle tickets is nothing. there were millions of tickets turned in.

Like in real life you could buy 100m tickets and not win the jackpot.

Your 300 is not much compared to 30.000 posted by a friend of mine.

I haven’t seen anything other than what’s in this thread (aka no actual proof).

I wouldn’t consider fluctuating TP number or prices proof that they’ve been awarded. It could just as easily be someone who has been hanging on to them for ages has finally decided to sell before the new ones flood the market. Or several people who each have a smaller number of skins.

well it doesn’t show a time/date stamp , you don’t have an old Maill from the new LivingStory but you have other old mails and it says it’s a replacement item So i dunno how much I trust that until another similar one is posted. I shall remain hopeful that it’s a hoax cause i haven’t got one yet and not winning would give me a sad

Most people when they receive an item/skin, they do not come on forums posting about it because of the excitement and desire to enjoy the item/skin, therefore it is very unlikely someone will make a screenshot of that mail before receiving it’s content for the purpose of posting it in forums as proof for other players.

Really? It says ‘Replacement Item’. I remain unconvinced. It looks like an accidentally deleted item (or similar) that they gave back to you. :P

If the whole skritt thing is handled with a message like this in the in-game mail it’s horribly disappointing and just lazy,

It always says that it is a replacement item when anet mails something to you that you didn’t buy in the shop.

Pretty much what this person speaks of, and ontop of that they did same thing with other prize’s in the pass. It’s okay if the non believer’s want to de-bunk my crap. I’m sure a GM can look in my logs or see who got what. I posted because one.. this first time I WON ANYTHING, I never gotten a pre drop or anything fancy in my time with Guild Wars 2, and so this freaking kick kitten .
