don't care at all about prizes or items, only care about the quality, competition, and enjoyment of the event
found this year's to be very boring, felt like a glorified code shop/maze exhibit on one side and then a spamfest/popularity contest on the other

Here's to that!

Here's what I know. I'm pretty sure each list is complete, except the hat bag. I know I'm missing a bunch. The 10 bag is just gralats, so I'm leaving it out.

100 bag (furniture):

- Pumpkin pet
- Ghost pet (cartoony version)
- Spider pet
- Cat pet
- Apple Bobbing Coffin
- Coffin Bed

200 bag (Usable items):

- Flaming dog poop bag bomb
- Pumpkin pogo
- Bone Juggle

325 bag (Hats)

- Silver Trimmed Tophat
- Gold Trimmed Tophat
- Diver's Helmet
- Ghost hat (covers head)
- Tarantualla hat
- Chattering Teeth
- Various Recoloured Tophats with a feather
- A bunch of different warrior helmets
- A tree hat
- A clown beanie

1000 bag (Mount)

- Chimera

Fixed.

Yeah, candy collecting was more boring, but I was fine with that, I still like the concept. The prize bag prices were ridiculous; even the adjusted half prices are really high...

I had 1000 candy; ~100 candy/hour (dunno if thats even close to accurate); spend ~10 collecting candy; and only got 2 hats i wont wear, a ghost pet that walks instead of flies (?), and pogo.

Pumpkin blob wasnt done well. 50ish candies divided by the surrounding crowd where you cant walk; you'd be lucky to even get one. The candy shouldnt have been dropped on the ground.

I personally thought Crypt was well done despite other people's thoughts.

I saw a lot of people who wouldnt give candy because the bowls cost too much. Idk, because on the other hand there were the people who bought 50 bowls, some were able to get rid of them, and other people (*cough* Lia) bought a lot of bowls and only got rid of half.

Thanks. I added those, in addition to some other hats that I've seen so far.

Graal o ween was horrible.

I think halloween was fine. The items inside the goodie bags looked fine aswell. even though many people complain about the price for the good bags, i think the price was alright. I think the problem is that people were expecting prizes like last year 5candy for a chance to get any item or a trick. Now they see 325candy for one hat.
Overall, good job on this halloween.

Giving was probably the way to go in my opinion. The top person had 15,000, I mean, you could just stay AFK for the entire event with 150 bowls and just hope that people enter, you would automatically get 5k candies without even having to lift a finger. I guess you can really only do this though if you have like a ton of gralats you have to waste.

OT: I would save for Black Friday and hopefully Thanksgiving, even though I do not celebrate it. I reckon they will have stock for Thanksgiving because they seemed to have a hat for Bastille Day, which I knew nothing about, but since I know something about Turkey Day, I assume there will be some nice things.

I am saving for Black Friday currently, I really want a nice 2P mount and some other hats/morphs...

Everything was pretty bad.

Little competition equates to little fun for myself.
Still proud that I denied going through anyone's maze to grab a piece of candy.

F*** you if you did that. :)

And I'm sure a lot more of us would have done this, had we known beforehand that givers would get 1/3 back. :)

This would also have also encouraged more people to give candy. Everyone was under the impression, though, that there were no prizes for giving candy (except for the top 6, who would get trophies). Had they made it clear that giving candy would also yield a reward for everyone else, then things might have gone differently. I know I'd have a lot more candy to spend. I think this would have solved a lot of problems and increase the candy output significantly.

This is really the only thing that I'm unhappy about. I think it was a pretty big mistake on their part (not making it clear beforehand).

Narc there is also a red and pink trimmed hat like the ones we got, also anyone post picture of divers hat

Lemme say the crypt and onnet were done well
ive noticed shops getting interesting such as japanese themed nexus had its own secrets onnet finaly having a vip room and crypt as well
The shops were great keep that up!
now for negative comments


The candy system was extremely boring I had no motive to enter houses for hours and hours

also the prizes suck
if you could possibly get rid of the bobbing for apples and give something thats good

coffins are cool
but can you find me someone who wants a coffin full of water and apples for no reason and does nothing at all

Not exactly true. Maeby and CoM people played a smart game. They all placed several statues of their friends in their houses (so people can double-tap to view profile > enter house for another quick candy), and had those friends do the same, creating a web of houses, all getting traffic from each other. That and you spread out in all the crowded areas advertising that your house is open with candy.
