Happy Halloween Menewsha!

Feeling confused about how the Halloween 2010 event works? Read on and hopefully your questions will all be answered! If not, please feel free to ask questions below!

But be warned - off-topic chatter will be removed from this thread, and deleted outright (meaning you lose gold for the post) if it's spammy enough!




Frequently Asked Questions

When will the event end?
Halloween 2010 will end sometime on the evening of Saturday, November 6th.


How do I participate in the event?/How do I earn event currency?
There is no event currency for this event. This is a very 'low-tech' event this year!
You participate in the event by posting in the event forum and hopefully entering the various contests or games that are stickied to the top of this forum!


Are there event rares? How do I earn them?
Yes - there are event rares. Treat's special shop contains just the event rares. You may purchase them directly for gold, but you can win one for free by participating in any of the stickied staff contests and games at the top of this forum.

Please note that after the event, the rares will be removed from the shops and discontinued, just like regular event rares.

As an additional note, we're sorry that we had to distribute the rares in this fashion. We were not able to have coding for this event and after discussion over what would be the most fair way to do this, this was the only sensible solution.


I don't have enough time to participate in games/contests during the event and I don't have enough gold to buy them - that's not fair!
Sorry you feel that way! As I said above, we did our best to figure out some non-coding way to distribute the rare items fairly, and this was the best solution we could come up with. Some of the site's charities/games will get a few extras to hand out as prizes after the event, so there is the possibility that you can earn them that way at your own pace.


Are there event commons?
Yes! You can visit Trick's shop by clicking HERE and going directly there. Not all of the commons will be available right away. This post will be edited when all of the Halloween commons have been added to the shop. They're all there!

Please note that these items will be available after the event ends. However, they will be moved to different shops (for example - the Basic Headbands would be available in 52) after the event for twice their current price (for example - if something cost 50 gold now, it would be 100 gold after the event ends).


Hey, isn't that event common a recolor of an existing common?You missed a color!
Yep - that's true! Most of the event commons this year are edits or recolors of pre-existing commons. We would have liked to have made more completely new things for you guys, but we just didn't have the resources to do so. So we did what we could do give you guys a nice selection of different things, hope you like them! :)

If you feel we've 'missed' a color of an item, that may be the original color for the item. Check the regular shops. :)
