"Trick-or-Treat, give me something good to eat!" The creepy children chanted as @Dionysos opened his front door. Amidst the chaos, he stared in disbelief at Louis Walsh, Iron Man, Bugs Bunny, and company.

To be continue.


So this year, we are doing our very own Trick-or-Treating - with a twist, of course. There's always a twist. But this is very simple.

Participants will have two options: Trick or Treat.

You can only participate in one or the other. In order to participate, please state whether you're going for Trick or Treat in this thread before you begin!



TRICK: The Evil Witch @Ilyena lost her ten precious hats
ualO3r8.png
in the mysterious land of Final Fantasy Forums! Quickly retrieve it before the gnomes do! (Don't worry, they aren't buried too deep).

---For each hat that you retrieve (by quoting and posting in the thread that the hat is located in), you will receive 50 Gil + colored username (3 days) + 5,000 Gil (FFXIV) if you have an account on Lamia.

---Make sure to mention me and uh, maybe stay on topic while you're at it so that Ilyena's evil minions don't go after you with their lollipop stick.

---Section of interests: Final Fantasy, Costa del Sol, Public Headquarters, and ???.

---Find all ten hats before October 31st, and you take home all the loot! (one month colored username) 300 Gil + 50,000 Gil (FFXIV).

TREAT
: Similar to the White Elephant game that we play during Christmas event, except in the form of ... 'dare'. The rewards are bigger, so pay attention carefully.

---We have five Treats available. Can you spot the difference? Believe it or not, they are different colors. Must be your eyes playing tricks on you otherwise.

Pick one bag. Each one contains special rewards, far greater than you can possibly imagine. But, you must fulfill the task I have written in stone for you in order to get your prizes. You will have 24 hours to fulfill the task. You snooze, you lose.

But what are the tasks?? Well, why don't you pick one and find out? :)


Participants:

Costello (Treat)
randomrosso (Treat)
soulcorruptor (Treat)
Sprout (Treat)
Belazor et Britannia (Treat)
 
Can anyone play this? If I can... since I don't play FFXIV so I'll go with treat!

4th bag please.
 
Yes, anyone can play this. Even if you win the FFXIV Gil, you can freely give it away to a FFXIV player of your choice. ;)

4th bag. From the left? Or from the right? Just making sure as we must handle this with care!
 
This could be fun o: I haven't been here long so I'm not sure what the White Elephant game is though, hmm.

If it's open for anyone to participate, is it okie if I choose the second bag?

Since I haven't been on XIV for a while and would feel unfair going after trick, I will do treat please and go for the 5th bag all the way to the right.
 
Hopefully the treat bags are also in-game rewards, I'll go with the first bag because first is for WINNAHS :monocle:
 
Five of you have been tricked! There's actually no specific tasks contained in each bag (but there are prizes, don't fret). Now that I know who I'm dealing with, I will surely make this worth your time. =]

@Belazor et Britannia - Boy you picked the wrong time to join this event. I have a lot of things I need done in the forums, which requires your help. Thank you so much for participating. :)

Give me some time to think things through and I will come back and give you all your tasks. There will be two phases you need to complete before you get your rewards...did I forget to mention that?

Clock is ticking.
 
Okie, sooo. Couple of questions. Can you send anything through the MogShop to people or do I have to accumulate 10k gil and buy the coloured gift boxes?! o.0 Does that have to be done during the checkout? Hopefully the cheaper stuff is good too... Though even then I can't afford to mess it up!

Can't wait to creep around the neighbourhood taking photos of houses though xD

Yes, the only way to gift items to people is through MogShop via your Inventory. The cheapest items can be found under Mooglets Station > Trinkets or Ancient Forest. The items here are only 50 Gil each, so don't give yourself a heart attack trying to figure out a way to come up with 10k Gil. :wacky: You just need to come up with 250 Gil. You earn Gil by posting, creating threads, voting in polls, etc.

For this particular task, I realize that people can donate a couple hundred Gil to you (and there is a general rule and restrictions with Gil Donations) but I will have to place a special restriction of 15 Gil donation per member. =P Just this once, to make things a little fair. So you can ask members to donate Gil for you by making empty promises and all that jazz. Or borrow a loan from the @FFFBank and you can pay back every week on top of 25% interest. :awesome:

Try this magic trick: Go to your Bank and deposit all your funds there. Hit 'Save' then 'Collect Interest'. You can do this every 24 hours and you'll become a little wealthier everyday. Just remember that you have less than 48 hours now.

This will be your biggest challenge yet. Have fun!

With that said, since you did give me a 60 days time card for FFXIV, I do owe you. So I'll donate a tad bit. ;)
 
I helped ya out with another 15, I should have been sneaky and gave ya some right before Mits put your restriction on sorry man.
 
I hope I'm in time but I just got my 3rd trophy and did the social media stuff yesterday! :)

EDIT: Bonus 5 trophies now, as of this edit :). (22:58pm GMT)
 
Not sure if I am doing this right but worth a shot.
