The various folks who were moving about were making the usual candid observations about the beauty of the lastest patch.
I imagine Arena.net will survive this, though it is a bit of egg in the face. Off to the Great Squirrel Hunt.

Well, Arena.net walks the walk. They provided a new patch, which unfortunately made some players, not all, crash to the desktop upon entering a game when first attempting movement. I was one lucky victim. Fixed in less than 30 minutes, at least for me.
They said they'd be doing continuous improvement/patching, and it looks as though they not only do it, they turned around their "oops" in less than half an hour after making it.
Of course, some would ask "why run an update during a Sunday Afternoon," but so be it.
Another interesting feature of GW is that when I exit the game, my mouse does no show up on the Windows XP Pro desktop. All I have to do to see it again is hit ctrl-alt-del to view the Task Manager and the mouse re appears. Probably my graphics card being cute.
