What if you don't finish Winter's Presence?
This happens.

It could happen, but it’s hard to say. Someone can correct me if I’m mistaken, but I don’t remember them ever carrying over achievement progress like that. The Halloween and Wintersday achievements have always started fresh, even if they’re the exact same ones. (“Pumpkin Carver,” for instance, or “Ringing the Right Notes.”)
There’s a chance Anet will commit to this one, especially since you can unlock a collection that will almost certainly stay open on your account permanently, but we just don’t know. Unless Anet tells us otherwise, I’m assuming the worst. (That sounds bad, but that’s a good reason to tell us otherwise.)

I haven’t gone online yet in the game, but I heard/read from Dulfy that one of last year’s events carried over to this year, the one with the grinch Grawl and the bring-me quest.
I still have two items left from that list. And to ensure a high chance of getting them, I have to go up some JPs.

I was thinking of posting about this too.
I think the new cool items being added for a large time investment is a neat idea. However if you know you aren’t going to finish something like this but wouldn’t mind getting half way and then picking it up again next year to finish it…. I think this should be nice alternative to needing to do a huge grind right now and it can be something you causally work on over two seasonal events. Yeah it would take a year or longer but in patient
Ah, Gene Wilder…. I couldn’t have put it better myself.
Give us more GW 1 weapon and armor skins, please. COPY/PASTE ALREADY!!!!
Sometimes, achievements return; sometimes not. If I were going for the shoulder skin, I would try to finish everything before 5 Jan (or 12 Jan) when Wintersday is expected to end — I wouldn’t count on being able to complete things later.

Life will go on, GW2 is just a game.
The collection requirements are apparently tied to festival achievements. So what happens if you don’t finish them by the end of this season? Will Anet make the same achievements available again next year, or ever?
I just don’t know if I want to commit to finishing it by the end of this season, and if it can’t be continued then I don’t want to waste the gold to unlock it.
The answer to that is that the collection for winters presence will stay till next year but the 10k drinks is attached to this winterdays achivmenta which will be locked after the event. So am guessing the 10k drinks won’t be carried over to next year.
