Halloween Birthday Bash 2024 - Moonface - Nov 4th, 2024

*sigh* The forum turns 18 years old and next thing you know it wants to decide that any time of the year is party time because it's an adult and can't be told what to do. Rolleyes

I had actually wanted to start this on Halloween, but school was demanding all of my time so that's why this is a little bit out of season shall we say, but hey, better late than never and maybe if we don't acknowledge Christmas yet it'll keep Mariah Carey at bay. Whistle

As always, I'll be running a variety of contests and activities during this event for everyone to participate in, focusing on Halloween, our anniversary, and/or video games! Taking part in the festivities will earn you points that can be cashed in at the end of the event to get yourself some spooky prizes, so even if you're not lucky enough to win you still have a chance to get something!

You're also welcome to make and/or suggest your own contests and/or activities that are thematically fitting for this event, which will also be eligible for earning points.

XP Bonuses
At the end of the event, I will reward XP to everyone for the amount of points they earn from this event, which will be done with a calculation of "Points x 20 = XP Amount", so for example, 18 points would be worth 360XP.

XP earn rates are also boosted for the duration of Halloween Birthday Bash 2024 (I totally didn't forget they were still on since I started Summer Meltdown 2024...), which means posting during the event will get you more XP than usual!
