Guild Wars Factions Open Event

What is the purpose of this event? Why not just give out invitations to the top 6 guilds with GWFC points?
New players and new guilds join into GvG play all the time. A new guild that comes into being after the 2nd season will not have a very good chance to earn enough GWFC points to earn an invitation.

Also, in the event that a region has 3 guilds in the top 5 guilds with the most GWFC points in it, that third guild—normally ineligible due to the 2-guild limitation per region—also deserves a chance to earn an invitation to the Guild Wars Factions Championship.

This event exists to allow any guild that has not already earned an invitation one last chance to earn a spot at the next championship event.

How is the GWFC Open going to work? Should my guild just practice for this event instead of playing in the GWFC season taking place right now?
The specific details of the GWFC Open event will be announced in the future. Keep in mind that this will be an event with many thousands of guilds competing for just a single invitation to the Guild Wars Factions Championship. If your guild is interested in fame and fortune at the Guild Wars Factions Championship, they should be competing for every chance they get. http://www.guildwars.com/support/faq/gwfc-faq.php
