From the GW2 page on Facebook:
Wow we have 91,000+ Facebook Friends. When we hit 100K+ we'll need to do something special to celebrate
http://www.facebook.com/GuildWars2
Hop on facebook so we can see! There hasn't been much new info on GW2 for a few weeks so it'd be nice to see some more info on the game or maybe beta invites for those 100k people that followed GW2 on facebook 
Anyone care to speculate what the something special would be?
On another note it's funny to see that FFXIV is out already and only has 5,600+ that like it on FB.

Meanwhile, SW:ToR has 190k.
Anyway, I hope they do something big like a release date...but that's highly unlikely. I'd settle for a new profession.
It's about time for a new profession to be released isn't it? Seems like it's been over a month since Necro was announced.
On another note, I think it's funny that World of Warcraft has 127,016 followers and 'Not Playing World of Warcraft' has 50, 622.
Share with your friends the Guild Wars 2 Group, to get 100K people

I have a feeling that "we" means just them. Like once they get 100k they will go have drinks or something.
That's nothing special since they can do that in any given day.
I would settle on a High Definition game play Demo of a new Profession, I vote Assassin.
Ready for GW2!!!
Nothing wrong with that.

They should give us a worldwide weekend demo of the same thing shown at Gamescom.
IMO GW1 "E3 for Everyone" and "World Preview Event" event were the best thing I've ever experienced for the pre-release of a game.

it's at 94,427 so far. Keep it up everyone! I'm pretty interested to see what they treat us to.
That would ne the best thing they could do in order to rise Hype, calm down the ppl that are waiting for class news, get more feedback in their Wiki (it's really short on feedback now) and to satisfy the fans.
And it wouldn't be a surprise. They would give 100,000 keys for that demo knowing the max number of it and probably knowing that not everyone would play it. But 100,000 is to much, no? But I would love if that happened (this waiting for the game is killing me, even thought I preffer waiting for it to be completely done and without flaws).
Edit: "Gamers worldwide created more than 200,000 accounts to play the demo during its five-day run." - I guess 100,000 is not too many, since they already did the same thing with a lot more ppl before! ty for the link.
Count is at 99,037 so far and there was an update on this today on Facebook:
Hey Everyone, thanks so much for driving the recent rise in Friend sign-ups we’ve seen on the Guild Wars 2 page. To thank you we’ll be rewarding our Facebook community with a special contest where you’ll be able to win some rare Guild Wars 2 loot, hot off the presses. We’ll provide more details after we break 100K Friends.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I might make a facebook account just to be included.

At the NYC Comic Con they basically said they didn't really schedule the classes to be released as evenly as they did. It just sort of happened. So they have no real schedule for the next one; they just want to be sure it is ready before they release information on it.

100 more needed!!!
99,927 right now.. they should hit it today
They will definitely hit it today, is moved up by 10 in the last 5 mins, so based on that I'd say in the next hour.
lol this waiting to hit 100k is like waiting for game to open, im refreshing it constantly! xD
Just created a facebook account so I could follow this. My guess though is that they won't be very specific about what people will get, unless they already planned this event a while ago ofcourse.
100,001 fans
How much WoW could a WoWhater hate, if a WoWhater could hate WoW?
As much WoW as a WoWhater would, if a WoWhater could hate WoW.
Reached 100.000...hope they will reveal new class..it's been like 2 months from necro
Show me the moneyyyyyy!!!!!
YEEE gz we did good job!
Real suprise would be revealing 2 classes, cause we already know 1 is on the way!
That would be cool
**UPDATE from Facebook**
