Could we start Halloween earlier this year?
See title, it’s a shame all of the Halloween races and station decorations are only out and about for 3 days.

i asked the other heads couple days ago and they both told me no. i also think they would be a cool thing to have longer than a few days during the Spooky Season.

Re: Could we start Halloween earlier this year?
The Halloween races are pretty disruptive, so it makes sense we don't do it for too long.

Once a year event, there is very little harm in extending it for a few days to make it a week. I encourage Cheshify and Fikou to live a little and embrace the holiday spirit.

Something you're not privy to is the number of adminhelps we get on roughly the third day from people who are absolutely sick of it and would like us to turn it off.sinfulbliss wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 3:27 amOnce a year event, there is very little harm in extending it for a few days to make it a week.

It should be turned on the Saturday before Halloween, but leave a server without it like campbell/bagil. If people don't want to play with it, they can play on those servers.

Re: Could we start Halloween earlier this year?
This isn't really an option anymore with how LRP/MRP works. Bagil might work but then there's no actual alternative for MRP, because you would basically be forcing anyone in the US who doesn't want the Halloween races to play with 150ms+ ping.SkeletalElite wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 5:06 am It should be turned on the Saturday before Halloween, but leave a server without it like campbell/bagil.

There will always be a handful of people that whine about things, the people enjoying it aren't going to be ahelping telling you how fun it is.Vekter wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 4:44 amSomething you're not privy to is the number of adminhelps we get on roughly the third day from people who are absolutely sick of it and would like us to turn it off.sinfulbliss wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 3:27 amOnce a year event, there is very little harm in extending it for a few days to make it a week.

Most normal gamers play spaceman every few days and mostly on weekends, maybe the event should be catered to the average SS13 player and not the people playing 20 halloween rounds in 3 days in the middle of the week.

Well, we were asked if we wanted it on for the full month of October, that's a bit more than the holiday spirit allows.sinfulbliss wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 3:27 amOnce a year event, there is very little harm in extending it for a few days to make it a week.

We'll enable it on Friday though, sure (in the codebase Halloween starts on the 29th, which would be Sunday by the way).
