Halloween Community Event Discussion
This is the official thread to discuss anything related to the Halloween Community Event. Please read the event details and come back here if you have any questions or comments.
The Event Summarized
Non-competitive
During the entire month of October, Planet Minecraft is hosting a Halloween-themed event. This event non-competitive. This means there is no competition, no judges, no final leaderboard and no winners. At the end of the event, each participant will receive a special participation badge.
Five entries per participant
The event allows for up to five Halloween-themed entries per participant, in the projects, skins and blogs categories. Video's, artwork and other creative creations can also be shared as a blog-post.
Rules
- The standard rules of Planet Minecraft apply to any submission.
- You are expected to enter new work. This means you cannot enter any creation that was previously uploaded to Planet Minecraft.
- You are allowed to enter work that was created for another Halloween-themed unofficial community event.
- Collaborations and teamwork are allowed for this event.
- Submissions that do not follow the Halloween theme will be disqualified.
Tips
- If you create an entry which doesn't immediately seem Halloween-themed (for example: a fairy costume skin), make sure to explain the relevance to the theme in your submission's description.
- You can create a skin, a blog-post and a project, you do not have to choose just one category.
- You have the entire month of October, so take your time and have fun!
- Don't hesitate to collaborate for this event, we would love to see some team efforts!

it was a fun first event, glad a little story (Vanishing at Elderberry Grove) Romto_ and I wrote got a mention in the conclusion part of the event. Hope there will be a new event soon (Christmas? Valentine's Day? or maybe some themed event like something to do with oceans, countries or winter for example)

Here's my Humble entry
I'm actually legit excited about it. It's a full quest that I wrote myself.
Was actually super hard because I'm new to scripting but it all works!

I love this! I don’t have to feel like I have to make a specific skin or something to enter, since I was going to make Halloween skins anyway!

aye. i'm gonna take a screenshot of a pumpkin and enter

Quick question by five entries, can I do 5 skins or does it have to be a combination of skin and projects?
3
You can do five skins if you wish :) it can be any combination

Okay, Thank you ^-^

I love this! Showed it to my gf and maybe its our age but we both felt that this was definitely the right thing to do here. It doesn't always have to be about prizes, emeralds, diamonds or stuff. Sometimes it's about sharing & caring.
We're in as well (it will be me sending in the stuff but it'll be a mutual effort). Planets + Minecraft + Event and scary stuff? What's not to like ;)

I'm glad you like our concept for this event. ^_^ Have fun creating your entry/entries together, it's lovely that you get to create something with your girlfriend!

Man, this isn't a question, but I have some real nice ideas in my brain-hole.
1
Haha well, I hope you have good fun creating them! :D

I might be kinda dumb for asking this but:
Let's say I create a project, and another person creates a skin. Will the skin be compared to the project or are each of these things separated? I'm asking because it doesn't seem fair to compare skins against projects, or skins against blogs since they're different things.

Nothing will be compared in this event, because it is non-competitive. It means that we don't choose winners and you don't have to be "better" than someone else. You just submit something for the fun of it :D

Ooooooooooooooooooh
I thought it was a contest like always :'D But cool to hear! Thanks Dinow

Noo that's the point, the first event that's not a contest ^_^ nice ey?

Yeah, though that does sparks one more question: Will all those who participate get a special badge that you created? O:
1
PMC will award every participant with a special badge, yes! :D
2
already got my first thing; Freddy Krueger now to think of something else...
maybe if somebody's willing write a ghost or horror/thriller story together. So who wants to write a story together?

Sounds fun but I'm not a great writer though :L
2
don't worry too much about it. it's just for fun, besides it's good practice if you want to further into writing. So if you want we can collab for a story.

yeah why not XD

ok, I'll PM an idea I got already

Ghost and ghouls of every age
Wouldn't you like to see something strange?
Wait, I can make three entries if I so wish? Are you trying to give me ideas?

I looked at the Mystery In the Mansion Blog contest back in 2017 and thought it was perfect for Halloween
