#### Zilloween Trick or Treat Route - 9PM Pacific

Zilloween is just around the corner and I'm looking to put a Trick-or-Treat Route together. All the new housing changes have been wonderful... here's your chance to show them off!
You house would be part of a couple of trick or treat sessions where Glitchen (hopefully in costume) come by and exchange candy! Feel like decorating the house in the spirit of Zilloween - go for it!
The Group is here: www.glitch.com/groups/RIF42...

- I'm sorry to hear it about last Zilloween. Find me online sometime, I'd love to hear about the stumbling blocks. Now that we've had a chance to settle into permanent homes, perhaps things will go a little more smoothly :)
  I'm not sure how to merge a group, and because Zilloween is a short term thing I'm not looking to set up a permanent route. Glitch is big enough for multiple groups, and who knows... maybe one Zilloween we'll see hoards of costume clad Glitch running around all rounded up by different folk :)

- I think you could use jack o'lanterns to direct trick or treaters. Get the route set up and established about a day prior to the event; and then try to find people to staff the route even if the homeowner can't be there. Maybe limit the number of stops on the route so that you can make sure that they are staffed for the whole 4 hours. You might also think about limiting the route-stops to people who are willing to change their backgrounds to something spooky for the day before and after Zillowe'en. Other volunteers could hand out candy - two people per stop would probably do it. Perhaps you could have a party at the "last" stop on the route where everyone can mingle and trade candy with each other.
  Trick-or-treaters should maybe be in some kind of costume? Even if it's just describing what they're wearing *as* a costume? Of course, they must say trick or treat!

- Hehehehe, way to run with it Scarlett! I hadn't thought about using the lanterns as guides, but it's an awesome touch! I'm hoping to run a couple of trick or treat runs lasting about an hour, that way people aren't forced to be at home for an entire Glitch day.
  If we have enough interest, I was thinking of sending out batches to start the route at various points. Someone also mentioned, this would be a great chance to work on Glitch Train and Stalker achievements.

- Zilloween is Wednesday!
  I have 8 fantastic homeowners (so far) willing to stay home and exchange candy with all of the costumed Glitch who visit. Plan on following the guide pumpkins from place to place while making friends, working on badges, and having a good laugh.
  Times TBD
  We can always use a few more home streets to visit. Visit the group to sign up.

- I'm not sure if you should use Lanterns, because as you know, they turn into those Roasted Peptias and a Pumpkin pie.

- Indeed they do, but not until after the holiday is over :)
