I would like to get a notice about Glitchen holidays

I would like it if there were a notice if it is currently a Glitchen holiday when I sign in, perhaps as part of the New Day announcement. I think it would prompt me to check the forums and chat to see if there were some sort of celebration going on for Pot Twoday or Recurse Eve. I would like to see more attention given to in-game holidays and the calendar in general, I think the community could build some interesting traditions.

    I only realized Zilloween was going on right now when I saw my friends earning candy-giving/eating badges in my news feed. There are so many different holidays in the Glitch calendar, and they mostly pass me by because I don't realize they're happening. I'd love to have some kind of announcement along with the New Day or somewhere else in the "Enter the World" process!

  • I only realised Zilloween was on when I accidentally planted one of my hoarded pumpkin seeds, knowing when something special is on would be awesome :)

  • We requested something like this for all the Glitchen holidays before, but it went past the 30-day mark.

    And yes, I still support the idea. ^_^

  • Mal'akh - Thank you, I searched for a previous question but didn't spot that one. Having it in the display would be fantastic.

  • I support this idea! Not only tell us of current or coming holidays, but maybe a page that lists all events going on, like rook attacks and street projects too?

  • I try to remember to check the calendar periodically.

  • it might be fun to have specially- themed new day notifications for holidays

  • Yes please! Reminders would be excellent.

  • That would be nice! I love hollidays! I had to really keep track of when Zilloween was coming not to miss it!

  • Totally agree! Would be much better!

  • I'm so happy that other people would like to see this as well. I think it would be great just to have an excuse to greet other Glitchen with a holiday greeting as we pass one another but right now the calendar is just far enough away that people don't look at it much.

  • Yep, even with Zilloween itself on the calendar, still a lot of confusion about when the badges were active.
