Thank you for your patience, Glitches and Glitches, while the world got littered with erroneous Zilloween memories.
These will now returning to their proper place - to the festival of Zilloween itself. You won’t be able to buy pumpkin seeds from gardening vendors for the time being, or grow them for a while (they’re not at their best this time of year anyway), and you won’t be able to carve the pumpkins that you still have (but why would you want to? It’s not Zilloween yet…)
You should still be able to make candy, and it is as sweet and full of sugar-rush as ever - but eating it or giving it away won’t count toward any holiday-candy achievement badges until the next Zilloween rolls around. This is not as daunting a prospect as it may seem – as the Glitch calendar shows, Zilloween falls on the 37th of Remember (which equates to an Earth date around the 21st of November for the next one) and then, as every other day in the Ur calendar, rolls around every 60-ish earth days subsequently, so there are plenty more Zilloweens to come. And every good Zillot will have a few Ur days to prepare for their holiday.
The pumpkins and lanterns seem to be holding up remarkably well - but the rot looks like it might be setting in, and our pumpkinologists tell me that they will probably degrade entirely by around 11.59pm PST on Wednesday 2nd November. It’s a very exact kind of vegetable.
You might want to bring them inside your house by then though, because if they do leave something when they rot, it won’t be fixed outside your door like the pumpkin lanterns were.
We thank you all for your kind patience with these pesky Zilloween explosions, and hope your teeth haven’t fallen out from all the unexpected new candy.
