I love the Halloween fun on CC but why not move it to the beginning of October next year instead of the day before... I am already moving onto Christmas now.

1v1's were made, if they are all gone then unfortunately you have missed out.

All the games are default settings except for the 1v1's. All quads are the same settings, however to clarify when we say game type we mean game type as in the options under game type in start a game and game finder. e.g. Game Type: Standard, Terminator, Assassin, Doubles, Triples, Quadruples.

Interest in 1v1 games is much greater than in 6 player esc or 8 player quadruples. You should probably have created a larger percentage of those games! I wasn't late out and still didn't even see a 1v1 game accepting signups.

yes sorry I realized after shot that the other settings were the same everywhere, therefore game type could only refer to standard dubs ect..

There were quite a few 1v1 games available at the start but they went extremely quickly. Maybe there should have been more... maybe not... its up to the entertainment team I guess.

Earlier today I won a doubles game \o/ However, now I went to look up my teammates games and see that he joined more than two of the same settings (3 x Standard). Does this mean I won't get my medal?

Hey Gilligan,

So I kind of had 8 Nov. in the back of my head as the deadline for this pumpkin carving thing, thinking that the entries would then be posted and we'd get to vote.

Now, upon rereading the first post, I see that they are going to be sent "to a judge in an anonymous manner and a winner will be determined". Are we going to get to see the entries?

I just remember being so impressed by the entries in the Easter Egg design contest, even the ones that didn't win, and was really looking forward to seeing what the great digital artists here at CC came up with for the pumpkin!
