Guild Wars 2

In light of recent extreme negative criticism from forum members, outside parties, and lack of interest the Grease Monkey Challenge has been suspended for retooling. No pun intended. I apologize in advance for anyone that was looking forward or planning to participate in the Contest. I will update this thread after the contest has been reorganized.

If you had a spvp component I would compete. Regretfully I don’t pve much so I don’t have the best gear, or experience in the instances to top that stuff.

Give me pvp though and ill shine.

Well that’s is a shame, but i’d rather see our engineers out in about in our world.
Still finalist will duel in a spvp server so maybe you’ll get there.

Why would you make it anvil-rock only if most of it is PvE?

Sounds soo fun :P wish i could participate but borlis pass! gimme shout out if a team needs an extra engineer :]

i think this is am awesome idea.

if you cant compete, boo hoo, better luck next time.

that said, a pvp component would rock.

Well any engie can always you know..server visit for a day, unless you mean its purely for av engies

Yea, a clarification would be nice. cause i really like the idea and from a personal point of view, if I’m able to participate i would have no problem contributing the the prices to make it an even better incentive for engineers to participate. but if not, i guess too bad, could be missing out on remarkable engineers outside of AR.

Have you played PvE on any server other than Anvil Rock? I think you should, you might be surprised.

Okay for anyone having any hope of any pvp, let me squash it right now.
Aisde from the final event, there will be no pvp events. The reason being is that the spvp system has no control. And players can easily switch, drop, or auto balance at will. I’d prefer to keep control over the event instead of the scoreboard

I never questioned it, just said it would be cool. The implication is that custom arenas will make your whole contest that much better.

Also, non “guesting” is a fair play, but be forewarned that some scruples will be spent on temporary transfers.

And, also, as a bit of criticism, while it is certainly “your” contest, … “your” attitude isn’t very welcoming about it when responding to feedback here. I recommend sticking with the tone of your announcement post.

I’m sorry if you feel there is an “attitude” about my responses . Just making sure everything gets answered.

It’s not that I don’t think Engi’s don’t run around on other servers. It’s just I want to encourage more Engi growth for AR.

why not?

No. this is a public forum, and as an interested party, im curious to know why you are against a higher engineer population on anvil rock. it is clear why visitors are discouraged, but why openly try to prohibit population growth?

makes no sense, esp. since you are promoting a contest which is intrinsically appealing to engineers everywhere, on a public forum open to all servers, no less
