make it so ever one hase disgise and ever one turns into zombies skellys xt

 

I am pretty sure the 1.4 Halloween update wont happen that day. We rely on too many plug-ins to push 1.4 live without any of them working and/or tested. (aka the economy plug-in, LWC, World Guard etc). If its all broken we'd spend the day down and rolled back, so it'd be a total loss of a day.

Don't worry though, Staff have a few ideas we will be announcing soon.

This made my day.

 

no pumpkin price raise. people would go crazy hoarding until that day. otherwise, good job.

 

^ya

Anyway, why just celebrate Halloween? Why not do something for Christmas too! We could also have a New Year's Eve party or something like that :D

I think we should celebrate all of the worldwide/well-known holidays on ECC, because it would be a ton of fun!!!

 

+50 it would be amazing to see the server have an event such as this one, really shows the creativity of our admins/mods/andrew! :D

 

Last year there was no New Year's party, but at spawn there was a big tree in the very middle of spawn. (Back then there was no spawn market or wood portals). And very many people put christmas trees in their towns with chests under for people to take gifts. And there were many, many chests at spawn that opened right when christmas started, at 12:00.

 

Oh how I love christmas spirit. I miss it.

 

lol, it was awesome one of the community things that happened on Christmas. One user had a giant tree in his town, and he invited everybody on the server, everybody you could possibly think of, to put chests under the tree for others, anybody they wanted to give stuff to really. There were hundreds upon hundreds of chests of goodies, locked and privated to the correct users. It really was something I never thought the community was capable of doing, but it happened. On Christmas day, we were invited one by one as we came online to collect any chests that were labeled for us by sign. Most users had a chest or two (Unless they were a builder of course, since nobody really knew who they were...that would be a lot of chests...) and a few had 3 or 4, like myself. Lots of gifts even contained things like iron/gold/diamond blocks, records, and other fancy items.

If something like that happened again this year... It would take a huge tree to hold all those chests. :| The one I was just talking about was already huge, and it didn't get anywhere near holding all the chests under the tree. I honestly think it would take nearly a 70x70 tree to fit all those gifts if the user managed to collect people as easily as the other one did.


Anyway, back on topic to the suggestion: I'd love to see the server celebrate Halloween, or other holidays even. I don't think that's easily done though, we'll see how it goes.
Last Halloween...was...interesting. All staff were given mob disguise (which at the time was not available to anyone but Andrew.) and PvP was enabled at spawn. Weather was also enabled in the main world for the day, mostly to see how much it would effect users though, so he could get feedback on how much lag it caused everyone or if they liked it in general. Spawn had temporarily had a complete makeover as well, filled with pumpkins, webs, and scary tunnels/mazes filled with traps and players. Mobs spawned everywhere...including towns, and spawn... Day/night time was adjusted, so night lasted a lot longer than normal and day went by quicker than you can say "Finally! Sunlight!". Finally, Andrew took a picture of everyone on the server at the time, lining them all up and making them all wear pumpkin hats. A few community events were also held around that time, like I believe Micheal set up a scavenger hunt. (I might be mixing that up with some other time, actually. Not sure.)

If Halloween was even considered this year, I imagine it would be less random and there would be other types of "changes" in effect. I remember last year being fun, despite all the chaos that came from the changes that were made (People dying in spawn and losing everything, lagging from rain, crops not growing as well with no daylight or they just couldn't see, etc...) I'm looking forward to what might happen this year.

 

No.

 

My life is complete. D0rc, person who answers everything in a large, sophisticated way..... quoted Shaney here....

 

We're planning stuff for Halloween. ;)

 

I can't wait :D

 

I was jus about to suggest a raise in pumpkin prices and saw this ! This is a good example of supply and demand which is what economy is all about! Raise until Halloween! +1000 lol
