We’re still having issues with the ISP for GuildMag, so I couldn’t post this week’s community event calendar there. Hopefully we’ll have the hosting situation cleared up soon.

This post is intended to help you to publicize your guild or alliance event, and as long as your event is open to the whole Guild Wars/Guild Wars 2 community, we’ll list it here. Send us the details at community@guildmag.com and we’ll get it out to the fan community (given that we only do a weekly wrap-up, try to send the information at least a week in advance).
