Official Halloween Event 2010

Postby samuelc812 on Sat Oct 23, 2010 1:31 am

There's a goblin at my window,

A monster by my door.

The pumpkin at my table

Keeps on smiling more and more.

There's a ghost who haunts my bedroom,

A witch whose face is green.

They used to be my family,

Till they dressed for Halloween.

===================================================

Happy Halloween from the Entertainment Team and Team CC!

The Entertainment Team would like to invite you to celebrate the spookiest event of the year with us, Halloween! We have heaps of things for you to take part in, not only for the chance to win heaps of prizes and rewards but also so you the community can have some fun! :)

Your job is to create a Halloween costume for him to go trick or treating in! There are a few things you need to know first before you start getting creative :)

Contest Details

  2. You are free to use any image editing software available to you, if you don't own any software there are some great free image editing sites where you can still achieve great results such as GIMP and Sumopaint.
  3. Once you have dressed the cook up in his custom made costume, upload your entry to an image hosting website such as http://www.photobucket.com.
  4. Send your entry via PM to samuelc812.
  5. Entries will remain anonymous while a public vote takes place, the community will decide which costume the Cook will be wearing when he goes Trick or Treating :)
  6. The Contest is open from now until CC Time: 2010-11-04 11:59:59.

I doubt you missed anything, DE. After all, speed games aren't open for us freemiums either. Someone made a mistake somewhere?

I know that's what you were talking about. On the same time, speed games on the halloween hollows map should have become available for freemiums. Because speed games didn't become available, my guess is that something went wrong when entering the exact time it should happen, or someone should have activated it manually, and didn't.

Either way, I don't think the change they were talking about actually happened (even though it should have), so you didn't miss anything.

Something probably happens either randomly during the game or when you conquer a territory. I don't think that something will change right at that time was meant.

It's in the hands of lackattack who has to make the speed games and secret available. I'm sure he has a reason why he hasn't done it yet. I'm waiting for the surprise as impatiently as all of you, so lets try not to bite all our nails while doing so.

Oh shoot!!

I set the speed games to begin tomorrow at 8 am :-(

I'll fix this once I get home in a few hours and adjust the closing time accordingly.

Sorry

Can you please change the dice, I can't see the yellow highlight around the winning dice. At least change it to a purple highlight or something.
