Anet/GW2 seems to not care very much about its 10th anniversary. For the stamp rally in Seattle, after spending a couple hours doing it, all that we received was old merch - four stickers (of mostly older expansions), a wrinkled Heart of Thorns wristband, and they made us spin a wheel to get another item. Most of the wheel had a chance to receive what I did, which was a GW2 bag with Path of Fire logo on it, and “a history of Tyria” items inside of it that had: an old pin, an old Icebrood Saga magazine, and an extra sticker. Felt really lacking in the reward department- at least give me a t-shirt or something better than some old stickers, an old wristband and whatever else you found deep inside the dusty merch cabinet. We got the feeling that they either didn’t care or they got zero budget for this “event.”
I'm so sorry you were disappointed. I wish you had let me know at the time--I was working there both days for the entire event and would have been happy to help you find something you liked better--there were art books, signed art prints, GW2 pint glasses, posters, plushies, coffee mugs, enamel pins, and other things. Some of that stuff is sitting in my car right now because we didn't give everything away--I would have happily hooked you up! We had a few people throughout both days who either already owned the item they won or knew they wouldn't use it. They let us know and we swapped it out no problem--we wanted to make sure everyone had fun!
You actually should have received a t-shirt, and I'm sorry you didn't. Everyone who came back with their completed book received the wristband, the set of game logo stickers, a t-shirt in their choice of design, and of course the postcard art book, plus the "bonus" prize from the wheel spin.
I am sorry for not being aware of your disappointment at the time--I would have loved to improve it!
