Halloween is coming, time to put your Tails Dolls on your lawns on posts. What're ya'll gonna do this year? Sacorguy79's RPG Level Up is OVER 9001!!!!! 11:05, October 11, 2010 (UTC)Sacorguy79

I think we should decorate the wiki Pumpkin Hill style. Blacknred 14:42, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, I usually change my signiture around these events that says where my monkey is at.--Mystic Monkey  sez 17:29, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I don't really know what we could do this year, especially considering the current issues surrounding SNN's status. However, I thought of somethin funny.--Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round 17:36, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * What you have in mind?-- Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.  17:55, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Changing the background to a holloween/Sonic theme. The background would be black, with Tails' (orange, to fit with the Halloween colors), and Big's insignias. Big's insignia would be a joke on cats being part of the whole Halloween theme. 'sides, Big deserves a little love.--Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round 18:17, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah! And also, why not the characters in there SA2B Halloween skins?-- Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.  18:30, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Dunno about the skins, if they aren't from the same game (the skins).--Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round 18:32, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would prefer mostly colour changes and image swaps than having to make a new skin and switch from those set to MonoBook or other settings. Can we just stick to cosmetic changes?-- Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.  18:58, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Ohhh, you don't use Monaco. No I'm talking about a new Halloween-themed background.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 20:45, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

I say it's a good idea. I also think we should have some sort of special event. I don't have specific ideas for one, though. -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  I'm not a monkey!

Halloween art contest?--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 03:30, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, that's a good one! First rule: NO FANCHARACTERS!! We have enough carrie art and I don't wanna see any more art stolen from deviantART!! -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  I'm not a monkey! 03:32, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

Really? I'd say it's easier to steal art of canon characters. But if we restricted it to peoples' own fancharacters and no character-maker artwork, I;d say we've got a fair contest.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 04:28, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

Halloween art contest eh? *Images Robotnik in an XXXL coffin*--''' <font color="00FF69">Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween. ''' 17:59, October 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, as a reminder of Bon-Fire Night, Christmas and future events, why can't SNN have one of these with perhaps something that automatically switches colours and images during certain events.-- <font color="00FF69">Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.  18:36, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

Well, let's see what the wiki is like after the move, then we can try and ste up something.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 04:58, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

I think later I will put a pumpkin on my userpage. I found an intersting code that make a picture stick to the very corner on an article. Kinda spamish code but relativly harmless.--''' <font color="00FF69">Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween. ''' 18:41, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, awesome pumpkin! Lemme know when the art contest page is up so that I can link it to the image. -- Shelly   the  Hedgehog  I'm not a monkey! 02:56, October 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. ^^ Though I tihnk the pumpkin is not orange enough. Itried doing it again but meh.

Still if people like it, I don't mind other users putting the picture up on there user accounts. Or if they wanna stick it in the corner like here and my user account, this is the code I used.--''' <font color="00FF69">Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.

 * Make sure you give Murph credit, too. He was the one that found the code could be used here. --AdmiralLevi.Signiture_B.gifAdmiralLevi._Salute_B.gif 15:23, October 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I didn't know that. I just found the code on another wiki I was browsing and plucked it from the source.-- <font color="00FF69">Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.  15:58, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

Halloween poll
Hey Leviathan! Nice what you did with your signiture. BTW my pumpkin code is for free use, didn't know others were using the code before me but I only started experementing with codes last months to see what I get. (Tabber code is fun!)

Which stage do you think is the most "Halloween" Pumpkin Hill Cryptic Castle Mystic Mansion

Anyway I started a poll out of interested plus halloween spirited. At first I thought Pumpkin Hill was the only Halloween themed stage but I forgotten about some others that are both haunted and have pumpkins so here is my poll. Which of these Zones do you think is most Halloween in themed; Pumpkin Hill, Cryptic Castle or Mystic Mansion. Also (a rafter fanfictional question) How close to each other do you think these Zones are?--''' <font color="00FF69">Mystic Monkey is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween.

Halloween 2012
It's the last quarter of the year now. That means the best holidays will be happening, such as Halloween. So how 'bout Halloween on SNN again? I have one idea for how we can make SNN a bit more haunted and that is a Werehog version for the SNN Sonic pattern background, if thats possible. I can just imagine Sonic the Werehog as a Halloween thing for Sonic.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  17:46, October 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * That would be an awesome idea, Mystic! I can really see it coming off well. 18:02, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * It can be dark blue and purple. I am possitive Sonic Generations had made a Werehog icon they didn't use, if I could find it then maybe I could make the halloween background myself. I recoloured the Christmas skin, I hope that gets used this year, I made it more redder.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  19:45, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think this is what you're looking for. Have fun! 19:51, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah yes. If other mods in charge of skins want to use it, I'll make it.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  19:59, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Sounds like fun! I feel like we can do something more though...

Neat idea with the Werehog symbol for a background. -- Supermorff (talk) 21:52, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Oh wow, I never expected this to be revived after nearly two years... Well then, a Werehog symbol on the background has my support. 23:58, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * I tend to bump old threads holiday threads. I consider this a form of recycling.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  00:28, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

I support the Halloween background.

....on a similar note, don't most main characters have a costume from some game that could tie in with Halloween? The Shadow Of Darkness (talk) 00:05, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Not a bad idea (the Werehog background thing). Pacmansonic138 (talk) 00:07, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

I guess you could say the characters from the story book series could be considered costumes. Anyway, maybe we can also do something with the main page? Like decorate it with Halloween pics, orange and black text, ect.

Alright then. In the morning I'll get onto making the Werehog background. It's almost 1:30am on my end. Oh hey my pumpkins back! I feel I should update that also.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  00:28, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

I was thinking of for every character who has a costume (besides Storybook costumes as they have seperate chatacter pages), we put that as their main character picture. The Shadow Of Darkness (talk) 00:36, October 2, 2012 (UTC)



Finished the Halloween Werehog background. My friend complains it's not halloween colours enough (orange and black) so if you want me to recolour it it's no problem.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  14:18, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, I personally think the purple is fitting, it's somewhat reminiscent of night colors. 14:24, October 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you! I tried patterning it, it's not 100% syncronised, at one of the werehogs quills I doubt anyone will notice, it's like 1% inaccurate. Just thought to say that 'cus I did try my best.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  14:26, October 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * It's actually 50% grey, to represent Sonic's darker side as a werehog. While I personally like it the way it is I can understand why some would want it more traditional in colour. Thats why I am thinking of making a selection of background to be chosen from. (my eyes are on the Boo's now or maybe the Hyudoro)--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  16:16, October 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the background looks amazing as it is. It's fine without any orange IMO. Besides, orange tends to be a vibrant colour, and if it was added to the pattern, it might clash and stand out from the more somber colours already present. That's just the way I see it. 16:32, October 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I also prefer the Werehog background as it's also a clever parody of the usual SNN background. Still I also made this one based on the stitch-mouth Boo's which has more traditional Halloween colours but still prefer the Werehog back myself.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  16:55, October 2, 2012 (UTC)



I prefer the Werehog, too. --16:58, October 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yah, I was gonna do a Hyudoro background, but I much prefer the Werehog and hope it gets used.

So will the Werehog background be used?--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  13:39, October 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * I support. 13:42, October 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hehe, I was the one who made the Christmas background. :3 Well technically I just recoloured it from the current blue one but I made it more red this year.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  14:13, October 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I know by theme it's not halloween enough (it's more werehog theme than halloween theme which is why I made the orange boo one also) but I like it too to be used for late october to Halloween.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  14:13, October 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Appreciated.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  15:19, October 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Appreciated.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  15:19, October 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * If you check the image page on it you'll notice I uploaded it years back. I wasn't satisfied with how "red" it was last time so I made it redder.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  15:19, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

I like the Werehog background. Do we want the two colours, or would it be better to use the same colour for the head and background (like the current background)? -- Supermorff (talk) 15:22, October 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd like the werehog background unchanged. I chose purple as while the Werehogs colour is darker blue than hedgehogs colour in Unleashed, in Unleashed menu's had his theme colour purple. I think the dark blue and purple go well with each other with the grey boarders of the werehog icon.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  15:55, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

I support the new background.

SilverPlays97, I'd rather we didn't make that change. Amusing as it would be for our regulars, it would mean there'd be no spoiler warning for newbies. -- Supermorff (talk) 20:14, October 3, 2012 (UTC)



It can be a change of template which will effect the other articles with the Spoiler banner but I don't think we need to go that far. As for the Werehog background, when will it be put up?--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  20:24, October 3, 2012 (UTC)





Not that +1 day makes much of a difference but why not on the 15th, the beginning of the week (and last half of the month)? Sooner than later would be nice, but any inconveniant time before Halloween is alright too.--<font color="#1CD3A2">Mystic Monkey  is at  Pumpkin Hill  this Halloween  20:52, October 3, 2012 (UTC)
