You can now make some friends (or enemies) through Trick or Treating! Here's a quick refresher on how it works!
Sending Requests
You can visit the Trick or Treating page to start. Listed there are currently online Aywans interested in accepting Trick or Treat requests. Just click on the "Trick or Treat" button below their name to send the request. You can send requests to an Aywan every 30 minutes. This page will update itself when an Aywan's online status changes.
Processing Requests
As you receive requests, Go to My Visitors to view your requests. From there, you'll have the option to trick or treat your visitor.
You have 15 minutes to respond to a Trick or Treat request before it expires.
The Site Characters are still preparing for the season, and have not yet joined the Trick or Treat festivities.
Located on the Trick or Treat status box is a Karma Meter. As you send trick or treat requests or trick visitors, you will incur negative (red) karma. Vise-versa, treating users will give you positive (green) karma. Both karma levels have their benefits and risks, so experiment around!
As a reminder, the Pumpkin Patch is open as well! Remember, any and all messages left in pumpkins must follow the Terms of Service. Additionally, the pumpkins cannot be tagged as [M]ature, so do not put anything that may need this tag into the pumpkins. If you pick up a pumpkin that violates either of these rules, please PM a staff member. Be kind, and have fun!
Don't forget to continue checking the Advent Calendar throughout the rest of the month! Will it be a yummy treat or something spooky? Check in every day to find out!
In preparation for the Giant Cauldron which will begin brewing in a couple of days, be sure to collect herbs from Greenhouse! Don't forget, you can also use them in Rowan's Potion Brewing, but be wary of what you grab - Minerva is watching!
The Spooky Forest is now open! As you adventure through it, you will be able to pick up Bootato, which will be one of the currencies used for the Seasonal Shop! You can find any pets that you may have missed out on from previous years, along with a few new ones!
The Ghoulish Gala festivities will continue through 11:59 PM AST on November 12th!
We have some exciting updates to share!
First up, the NPC's have all set up and are ready to receive trick or treaters!
Swing by the Site Characters page and trick or treat them when they are available.
This year, how it works has been adjusted from past events, and it does not work as it used to. You can now trick-or-treat almost all NPCs; the ones you can't will display as not home.
NPC's care about your Karma; if it's red, you may find they are less than friendly. As well as some NPC's will always be grumpy to be visited. Also, some are delighted to see you and will give you more than the others! Results now pop up on the right side of the browser.
Due to the overhaul, custom events (like hiding candy) have been removed for this year; it's not a bug. It just doesn't fit with the current system, and overall, this way will get you more candy (as long as you keep your karma green!).

The widget is now live! It has been moved from the trick-or-treat page to the sidebar. It comes with several features.
- You can click and drag it to another place if you prefer it in a different spot.
- Double-click it to re-nest it in the sidebar
- If you manage to drag it to a spot you can't reach, log out and back in it will reset to the sidebar.
- Visitor counter takes you right to the visitors page! Quick and easy access.

Ghoulish Gala link is now live in the community tab at the top of the page for easy access!
With that, we'll let you get back to festivities! If you run into any bugs, please post them over in the Glitches Forum
