With Halloween tomorrow, the time for costumes is almost over. We will be removing Halloween icons, "kingdoms," and the Halloween style on Sunday.

If you are still wearing a Halloween icon, please switch back to your Middle-Earth kingdom of choice by 12pm CST / 6pm GMT on November 1.

If you haven't made the switch by then, you will be reverted to a New Soul rank. (You can, of course, go back to your normal Plaza kingdom and rank at no points cost to you after that, but if you switch back yourselves by the Sunday deadline, it will make my job a bit easier. :smile:)

Thanks everyone! We hope you all enjoyed this year's Plaza Halloween! :party: :conga: :bounce:

This certainly has been a lot of fun! Thanks everyone involved for all your hard work to make Plaza Halloween a thing again.

Would it be of interest to anyone if I made another icons thread for NuPlaza Halloween to be saved?

Halloween was fantastic fun for everyone I think (including those that don't like playing because they didn't have to!) So excellent work guys!

Very entertaining! Whoever picked Game of Thrones for KD, was on the money. Seems like I am the last Dwarf standing (hard to believe with all the wine Tyrion consumed). 😉

Thank you! Great job!🎃

I was just thinking when will we have to say goodbye to the Halloween icons... I got used to "being" Nyota Uhura for a month and seeing everyone else's choice of Halloween icons. It was trully fun and I can't wait to do this next year! ^_^

Very glad to hear people enjoyed Plaza Halloween this year! :grin: But for real, big thanks to EVERYONE who played - whether in Halloween or regular Plaza threads - throughout the month! You all made this year's Halloween special! :grouphug:

Thanks so much, it was fun being The Doctor here on the plaza! But it's also great to be a simple and down-to-earth hobbit again.

Though I didn't last the entire month (I switched back to Mordor when I was close to ranking up within my regular kingdom), it was fun to try to roleplay as a few different canon characters (Louise, Dread Pirate Roberts and Princess Leia, respectively), since the last time I participated in Halloween season (meaning actually roleplaying as one of the characters), I had to make up one because I wasn't that familiar with the character of my rank (it was the time on the Old Plaza when Mordor did a Pirates of the Caribbean theme). I hope you do a similar thing next year, since I find it much easier to participate if it doesn't cost me any points (which is probably another reason I didn't participate much on the Old Plaza). :smile:

err as part of the recover of things back to normal would it be possible to get the Imladris Kingomd general OOC pinned once more now that the halloween one is unpineed? @Moriel @Zôrzimril @Sil

Hey @Fuin Elda- the Imladris OOC was never actually pinned before, as the TR (Aig) hadn't asked for it to be. We typically don't alter threads unless the TR has asked for it to be altered or rules have been broken, so let's just check with @Tharmáras whether he would like it to be pinned :winkkiss:

Ooooh good point, @Moriel! I’ll unpin for now but we can certainly change back depending on what Aig would like to do.

And yeah, just to clarify - de-Halloweening the Plaza did not cause previously-pinned threads to become un-pinned. I went back through and un-stickied just the Halloween OOCs. :smile:

Yes, @Moriel and @Zôrzimril , please pin the Imladris OOC thread! It's a vital place for plotting and answers given to important questions, of course. Definitely an asset which should always be stuck to the front page, I reckon.

Hahaha it’s been a wild few minutes for that thread! It’s pinned again now. XD Thanks for weighing in, Aig, and thanks again Moriel for making sure TR permission is granted. :grin:

I'm happy about this tagging system :clap: ! It's very effective for people like me who get focused on one thing and needs to be occasionally reminded about other stuff which I need to be aware of :googly: :lol: .
