BLTC Wintersday Rewards/Gems Promot Question

Not sure if it should be here or in the BLTC forum, but since its more a question on the gems purchased, I figured I put it here.

For the 4000 needed for the mini Mr. Sparkles, does it have to be 4000 bought in one go, or is it 4000 overall (ie. a 2000 gem purchase then a 1600 day(s) later, or 5 800 over the course of the month, etc.)? I’m assuming its cumulative, but I’d just like some confirmation. Thanks in advance.

Ok, here’s the page about the Mini Mr. Sparkles: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/introducing-the-black-lion-wintersday-rewards-event/. The page reads as follows:

“Welcome to the month-long Black Lion Wintersday Rewards Event! Evon Gnashblade of the Black Lion Trading Company will be rewarding December customers with exclusive gifts!

Black Lion Trading Company customers who purchase at least 800 gems will receive an exclusive Green Quaggan Backpack Cover. If you purchase at least 4,000 gems, you’ll receive not only the Green Quaggan Backpack Cover, but also a Mini Mr. Sparkles of your very own!

In early January, you will receive your gift based on gems you purchase and gem codes you redeem between 12:01 AM December 1 and 11:59 PM December 31 PST."

I read that as a cumulative purchase and not one single purchase of 4,000 gems at a one time. I will verify, but that’s how I read it, don’t you agree?

Dang, that’s a great question, and I confess I don’t know the answer! I can see it being either way, but cumulative would be extra nice, so I’m hoping it’s that way but I just am not sure how it works (and I apologize for that).

Let me ping the gang to find out for you.
