Release 248: Halloween 2020! 🎃

It wasn’t for the game, it was for Visual C++, a required package for the game to work.

The UK one is actually called Mothering Sunday, and isn’t to do with mothers, but rather a time when people would return to their ‘mother’ church, according to an episode of QI!

Well that was the most disappointing thread bump ever.

A new release! Oh no, it’s just a thread from 18 months ago.

I Tell myself one day just one day I can be like James-chan @james

when I 1st met James-chan he was Saving a Build as I watched that no one touched it then he got rid of my death penalty for that day instantly

What I’m mostly looking forward to with the 2nd Chance Brews I’ll be able to get rid of death penalty for players good deeds

@james -chan are you gonna activate the Halloween event ?

My hearth skipped a bit :)) Was like… new release? whaaaa…
But yea, would be nice to have some events, maybe @monty1 can give us a helping hand with this… question mark :slight_smile:

This event should be auto triggered later in the month.

I thought the auto trigger was in patch 249 which hasn’t released so doesn’t it have to be manually triggered Soju-chan

Yea maybe someone can activate it now giving us plenty of time to enjoy it

my understanding is that all of the seasonal events are auto, based on a date (usually close to the holiday) but the others like gleambow and anniversary events have to be manually triggered but I could be wrong.

looks like last year the in game event message was visible on or about the 19th of October with the event starting around the 21st of October, so hopefully it will be the same this year.

Yea we normally get that 1 week countdown in exchange woulda thought that would pop already

Last year, neither of the gleambow events popped.

Gleambow is not one of the seasonal events though.

The year before that we didn’t get any seasonal events

We had a Halloween in 2020… think that’s when the weather quirks were introduced. Actually just noticed this post is originally Halloween 2020… and 2021 I linked above so we have not missed any Halloween events that I am aware of

I think gleambow and the birthday (anniv) are the only ones we have missed… as I think they must be manually done.
