Due to an earthquake in Taiwan, many players in that part of the world were unable to participate in the Wintersday Festival. Players in other regions learned of this and helped us by donating Wintersday Gifts that were distributed during a mini-event held on the Taiwanese server in late January. Here is a
report of the event and a series of "thank you" posts from players who were touched by the generosity of their fellow
Guild Wars players.
