"Save As" from Photobucket doesn't work for some reason, same as last year. Can't you just use imgur for images.... ;)

Don't worry. The acid will wear off in about 8 hours and your head will allow you to re-enter. Unless it's that really wild psilocybin-enhanced microdot, and then it might take a couple of days...:)

No problems... I recieved 1 entry... and 1 HALF entry.

1 entry from rizky_biznezz who was actually embracing the event...... Even a BONUS image for fun...

And a re-hash from Saucyjack from one of his last years entries.

Even the person who said "Hey I want a Pumpkin Event" ... "FORGOT" to enter

Pathetic.

Then I see a thread devoted to "where are the halloween maps/events" ... and just laugh... pathetic

All those freemium guys that winge about not having enough credits to buy premium... well I was basicly THROWING the credits at you here...

A BLACK DOT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BLACK AND WHITE PUMPKIN WOULD HAVE GOT YOU SOMETHING

and still...1 OFFICIAL ENTRY... pathetic

Got lots of support from the Moderation Team too.... OH HANG ON..... 1 entry.. :roll: yeah sorry I lose count sometimes.

SO... enough of my little rant.... HERE THEY ARE.. Well done rizky_biznezz... =D> =D>

Maybe a more productive thing to do would be to ask why more people didn't enter, what you could do better/different next year that people would be more interested in, rather than to just call your users pathetic?

Raz, if it makes you feel any better, my entry would have been a hole in the middle.
Take that figuratively.

Kudos.

If the post was made a bit earlier in the month, I may have tried to work something up, but I was busy and camping a few of the days we had.. it was only a 6 day window D:

Anyway, nice pumpkins rizky!! :)

Exactly. I was the one who wanted a pumpkin carving event, and Razorvich wanted it to last 24h. I urged him to make it last longer and yet I didn't manage to create a pumpkin. Yes, so pathetic.

On the other hand, why did I had to ask for a pumpkin event in the first place? If you ask me, that is pathetic...

i have no idea how i even got here, i was responding to a thread and this popped up. i didn't know this contest even existed! i think most people are generally looking for the usual FREE GAMES on the halloween map and not a contest like this... i am on here every day and had no idea that this was going on, like most things that happen on CC... anyway, better announcement/placement of the event would probably help a great deal more...-Bj

It's one of only 3 announcements in the Announcements forum. It's featured in the left-nav headlines. It went out on the Twitter feed and the Facebook page. Don't know how much more prominent it could get.

Oh, I know! We could publish a newsletter and drop it in people's mailboxes! But then, some people might complain and call it spam....

Or maybe, we could have parallel announcements in the General Discussion forum. But then, some people might complain and call it spam.....

Greetings CC. I have recieved a lot of P.M.s concerning my post (more than recieved for the actual event LOL) and feel I must explain and clear the air.

Last year, everyone had 3 days to come up with a pumpkin, and I recieved so many P.M.s that I actually lost one of the entries.
3 days: viewtopic.php?f=634&t=215445&hilit=halloween#p4741964
The main complaint last year was that the pumpkin sucked... so this year there were options.

This year you had 5 days. It was never the intention as Dakky has suggested for this to be a 24Hr event. Chat was thinking about a 24hr thing, but with timezones, it clashed with me here in Australia and the Melbourne Cup, so was not an option in the end.

The September Challenge took 3 weeks to put together, was hard and judged as such by the community to be bordering on the "TOO HARD TO CARE".

This Event took 1 night to put together, EXTREMELY simple... and nothing.

My whole intention for my post was to draw attention to the fact that there are other things happening here, other than just us killing each other on the battlefield for Score, Credits and Medals.

If I have offended anyone with my post I appologize

What this does highlight is the lack of an OFFICIAL Events Calender, which I am already working on for 2017

Stay tuned for more crazy events to come.

#1, please don't spam me.
#2, please don't abuse the GD.
#3, people still use Facebook?

see, those are both very poor ideas that have failed in the past. and let's not forget we have a 75yr old member running the FB page, whom is confounded by the drop in likes, etc...

now, how about a BANNER like the good ol days to promote events?!?! or how about you guys fly a sig for a few weeks before the event, with a link in it to click on and go to the event?!! i know those have worked in the past, vs. the 2 sarcastic suggestions i quoted above...-Bj
