Arenanet has prooved that to me at the end of the final Guild Wars beta this past weekend. I thought I would show you people, assuming you weren't there, what I am talking about.

Explosive lawn gnomes. >_<
And the player in the center of them about to die is the head of Areananet's PR. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/ic.../icon_razz.gif

Edit- This wasn't stolen from someone, this is my own shot.

Very nice Ranger/Monk you have there. If I can get back on, I'd love to join you with my Mesmer/Necromancer. Why there are garden gnomes, I don't think I wish to know.

Wait a week for the release. The beta's are over. And I'm not going to be a ranger/monk anymore. I found a ranger/elementalist to be far more effective and less relied upon to be the sole healer when the primary monk decides to be stupid.

I like how the one Gnome has a small faint text bubble above his head and it says "Ni!"

I know someone who works for ArenaNet, and I can confirm your suspicions. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/ic...on_biggrin.gif

Too bad the only stories I can think of right now are "NSFW."

Really. Then see if you can convince them to drop n Ithas Bow into that characters inventory as I preordered from the wrong place and it's now too late to change. >_<
Heh.

I can sympathize with the developers on this one. After spending several months/years working on a project, you developed a warped sense of humor. I can see where a sleep-deprived developer would think it would be "awesome" to end the beta by covering with world with explosive lawn gnomes and killing everyone....
