[Event] Halloween Fright Night!

STONEWALL· FRIGHT· NIGHT!
A FULL DAY OF HALLOWEEN THEMED EVENTS FOR THE ENTIRE ARMADA!
For the last three years, Stonewall's amazing Department of Fleet Resources has hosted an annual series of spook-tacular fleet events to coincide with Halloween, the galaxy's most horrifying holiday. This year, Gareth and I have combined our powers of witchery, to ensure that this yearly event is resurrected once again! We're inviting our friends from across the entire Stonewall Armada (living or dead), to join us on Saturday, October 31st, for Halloween Fright Night: Stonewall's FOURTH annual Halloween event!

Since earning our online degrees in Witchcraft at the beginning of August (in what was clearly not an internet scam), Gareth and I have been working tirelessly to plan an amazing full-day of unique events for you all this Halloween. Our months of preparation have produced a terrifyingly unique event line-up of amazing quality that you'll find nowhere but in Stonewall! Additionally, the prize packs that we've put together for this event are nothing short of jaw-droppingly phenomenal!

So, ditch those real-life party plans and invite all of your friends from across Stonewall's great armada to join us for a day of celebrating the occult!

COSTUME CONTEST RULES, CATEGORIES & PRIZES

---

It's with great excitement that we announce the five amazing categories for our Horrifying Halloween Costume Contest! Don't wait for the Halloween event to hit... head to the nearest tailor now and save your costume in preparation for the event!

You can enter your character or characters in as many of the different costume contest categories as you like and we encourage you to enter multiple categories to increase your chance of winning! The judges will allow you to switch between characters in between categories, if you feel that one of your characters is better suited to enter a particular category than another.

Entrants will be judged by a panel of judges at the time of the event. One winner will be selected per category with the exception of the final category, for which one winning duo or team will be selected.

The prize for winning a category is 1,000 amazing Zen (North American contestants). Due to restrictions on gifting Zen, European and Australian fleet members will be awarded 10 master keys in lieu of the 1,000 Zen.

Superhero Likeness Category

We'll kick off the costume contest with one of our epic new categories this year. Pull out the spandex and dust off your sewing machine to make the BEST superhero likeness that you can! If you like, you can create your own, new superhero, but the judges will need to hear the backstory behind your creation!

Video Game Likeness Category

What was your favorite video game growing up? Do you have a favorite video game character now? Have you always had a crush on a particular video game character that you thought was dreamy? Show the judges your best video game character recreation to take the win in this fun category!

Star Trek Character Likeness Category

For years we've been tasking you with creating the most accurate Star Trek character resemblances for this classic costume contest category, but THIS year, we're looking for something different. While you can still recreate the regular cast members of the show, the judges would be EXTRA impressed by re-creations of semi-regular or occasionally recurring Trek characters, and the judges will adorn themselves with their own costumes in a similar spirit! Be the best to win this vintage category!

Love the sound of the flagship event...though idk who would want me with them :'(

Would need someone to catch me when the jumpscares happen! D: :S

(So my little pet peeve: while I certainly appreciate linking to timeanddate for people in other time zones, may I just point out that most of US and Canada is under summer time until November 1, and contrary to was is written in the original posts, the times given are in EDT, not EST. As indicated also on the said timeanddate calendar, which clearly says EDT.)

P.S.: Just be warned.... I sucked last year. Showed up with space traits... :D

Almost everybody is always worried that their ground skills aren't as good as they could be, but you won't need to be a rockstar on ground to do well. Everyone's always been able to complete the mission and we always help with matchmaking to find everyone a partner at the time of the event if they don't have a partner picked ahead of time. No sweat at all! :)

Voleron, you're not an admiral any more. Retire already. :P
Just kidding, I'm looking forward a lot to this event :woohoo:

Oh I can't wait for this event.

eeee looking forward to this! BRAAAAAAAAAAAAINNS!!!

Re-designed level this year! Well.. not totally re-designed, but some additions that will make it different and interesting for people that have played in previous years!

I retired so that I COULD run events without having to worry about those crazy banks! B)

*hides under covers*




I'm excited. Especially for the 20 person PvE. Big Dig on Halloween? what manner of monster will spawn?

EEEEEK

Cai that's 2 sp00ky 5 me

This looks like tremendous fun!

Like, super-amazing fun, more like! Can't wait to see you there!!

I will be in Daytona Beach for the 20/50 Con. Depending on what time I get back I will definitely try to make it. In case the con turns out to be a whole-day thing, hope you all have a fantastically spooky time! :)

Looks great,

I'm curious have we ever tried a ship costume contest for example in this case making the ugliest most horrific ship design (hello original galaxy and defiant variants).

Just thinking ahead for opportunities.
