Soooo... NO Zilloween?

I mean I just kind of ASSumed it would be rescheduled a little bit to coincide with Halloween in that real world thingy I keep hearing so much about.  What's up with that?

  • Zilloween last year lined up with Halloween and was released around Halloween by the devs and lasted longer then normal, being seasonal and new and all. Zilloween is also tied to the Glitch calendar in general and reoccurs about 2-3 months apart, and will definitely next be around November 12th

    If the devs want to trigger an occurrence for Zilloween to coincide with Halloween, it would be nice, but that's up to them. But, personally, I think it's not unreasonable to have to wait.

  • As a player on the east coast who was hit by last years winter storm for the first Zilloween (of which I only got in maybe a game day of) and now this year getting hit with Hurricane Sandy, I'm rather glad that it's a wait. I think it's rather selfish to want the calendar to speed up or have a holiday hit before it's scheduled. It's as if suddenly people decided that since Christ was born sometimes around September, we should move it on up to then and anyone who wants to wait til December can pretty much suck it.

    Besides, what's not to say that there might be a Zilloween feat around that time as well?

  • Is there some reason the Glitch calendar couldn't be adjusted to fit neatly into an Earth year? 

    If a Glitch year were 438 4-hour game days long (instead of the current 308), then there'd be an even 5 per realtime year.  Zilloween would always line up with Halloween, and other holidays would also line up.  Plus, fewer Zilloweens means more specialness and less Z'ween fatigue.

  • As of this post, the calendar (upper-right corner; it's clickable) says it's 17 real-world days from now. So Nov. 12 is about right. :)

  • But...  That's like exactly what I think about Christmas...  Not so much the "suck it" part, but like can we not harp about keeping Christ in Christmas when it's a sham of a holiday that has nothing to do with Christ?

    And I just keep missing Zilloweens, but I've had lots of free time recently, and wanted to get the badges.  Alas, however, It appears Zilloween is not to be...  least not til I'm busy getting ready to travel for thanksgiving and will probably miss it again.  And NO I don't expect Ur to revolve around MY needs lol.  But it would have been nice is all I was sayin'.  lol

  • Well, I think it would be fun to have Zilloween line up with Halloween. But, since it sounds like a  complicated thing to do I think they should come up with halloweeny feat for halloween if they haven't thought of it already.

  • there's still some hope.  the next feat is the last in the series, and for all we know it could unlock new halloween themed content.  or not.
