Well, while this thread could apply to any kind of holiday, I only ask this because Halloween is just around the corner. What do you do for holidays? Special skins? Events? What do you plan to do this year?

we also have stuff planned for halloween but its UBER SECRET but yeah, we definitely do stuff! idk if its because its HM based or not but yeah uwu 0.0but omg I love love love love LOVE holiday inspired events My favorite is by far last year's Halloween event on Anrui. I hosted a mafia game (like roleplayed out and everything). Twelveish members participated and of the 12 I randomized three to be the 'cursed' and one to be the 'blessed'. There were the two time periods: 'day' where everyone was supposed to roleplay to try to find and lynch the cursed and 'night' where the cursed were to tell me who they wanted to kill and the blessed was to ask me and confirm if someone was cursed. To keep things moving along I set time limits and if they went over-due I'd (as the narrator) would lynch the least-active character. IC wise I made it halloween themed and super creepy. It was semi-ic, the members characters were transported to a small, creepy dream-world glade with a tree in the center of it (from the tree hung the lynching noose). The narrator was just a voice that was heavily hinted to be darkrai. The characters were told that there were cursed amongst them and if they didn't kill the cursed the cursed would kill them and my descriptions of the character's death were pretty thought out (if I'm aloud to toot my own horn) as I would make it related to the character's worst fear and then mix it with a pun (example below because I can't really explain it)
The wind bellowed through the twilit place, whispering through the trees, making the noose creak back and forwards, back and forwards. The toys, murderers, would be waking up soon, but one of them would unfortunately be left behind.
Little Character Name.
The girl lay by behind the noose tree, crumbled up like a broken rag doll. Her limbs were bent at odd angles, bones shattered beyond repair as if the girl had been pushed off a cliff.
Apparently the pusher had a...sense of humor. Cat ears, eyes and whiskers had been painted on her hand and in that hand a tongue was being held. It was obvious, unfortunately where such a tongue had been scavenged, the girl’s lips were as red as her hair, blood dripping down to make her reminiscent to an old, discarded puppet.
To make things all the worse, pictures had littered her corpse, pictures of her. She was fleeing. Fleeing and fleeing and fleeing from shadowed crowds that gained on her. Her tongue had been cut off already, cat hand, dripping with blood, holding it tight.
She didn’t see the cliff...
A Pembrook’s tongue was held by a cat and she ran off a cliff and she was dead.
It wound up being super dramatic ic wise and the members had a lot of fun trying to figure out who the cursed were and seeing their characters die horrible painful deaths. Though the prizes at the end were the best part. Anrui's a route-based pokemon rp so I gave all the participants Three rare candies and a shadowball tm. Also, you know how I hinted the narrator voice to be that of darkrai? Yeah I kinda said that the winning team (the cursed in this case) won one but I held the enter key down for like five minutes so the post would be super long and at the very bottom I said no it was actually just a ditto. Other holiday events I've witnessed that were awesome (also Anrui): in another halloween event an admin wrote and pmed everyone a choose your own adventure story. Your prize depended on the path you chose. It was super fun and the story was great! Easter-egg hunts are always a lot of fun One time an admin did an advent calender promo. Post once a day and get that day's prize. But of course, you can't back-track so you had to post daily to get everything. christmas party rp. Nuff said (even better it was one of those parties Currently I have a super secret halloween event thing in the works. Hopefully I can actually manage to get it up (if/when I do I'll share it because I'm super proud of it's concept)

UBER SECRET HALLOWEEN EVENT IN WORKS, THOUGH. i really hope they like it.
