The spooky season has arrived - you can now access the Ghoulish Gala Hub! You can also 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
On the side menu of the site, there's a Trick or Treat status box. As you receive requests, your visitor count will change. You can click this number (or 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.



If trick or treating your fellow Aywans isn't for you, don't forget that you can always Trick or Treat the NPCs instead! Swing by the Site Characters page and trick or treat them when they are available.
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 (orange) karma. Vise-versa, treating users will give you positive (blue) karma. Both karma levels have their benefits and risks, so experiment around!



The Pumpkin Patch is now 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!

Starting tomorrow, October 16th, you will be able to collect one festive item per day from the Advent Calendar! Will it be a yummy treat or something spooky? Check in every day to find out!



You can now collect herbs from the Greenhouse to use in the Giant Cauldron, which will begin brewing toward the end of the month, and 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 that will open later on in the month! You can also find any pets that you may have missed out on from previous years, along with a few new ones!

Magical candy apple? I didn't know the garden has something like this this year, I thought those were only from the apple baskets..

If you feed your pet magical candy apples, they double the chance of not being caught in the garden, I believe. (40% chance on a zombie rose, instead of 20% etc)

tried it again, and first one I got caught.
Each apple has a different effect, but as far as I can see other than the message confirming it was used you can't tell if it's active on you/ your pet

shiya (#32813) it is from the basket, but if you read the description it;s supposed to help you pick things in the garden
(sorry for the duble post, was clarifying answer)

Ahhh I'm a doofus, sorry Tae Tae (#66637) I read that as if you were trying to pick up an apple in the garden...
Yeah, I don't think there is any other confirmation.. and some herbs will still be troublesome to pick up

Love the new pets!
I hadn't had a lot of help from the apples in the past. Minerva is always catching me!

Considering how dead the site seems to be, I think you need to shorten the times on user trick or treating. Didn't it use to be way shorter previous years (more like 5 mins) or am I misremembering?
Regardless, there are too few people with T-o-T turned on to wait 20+ minutes to go again.

Currently 21 people out of 75 online have trick or treating enabled. That's not even half.

The Magical Apples are definitely working. Just grabbed 3 Pennyroyal and 2 Dragonbones after using one.
