The end of Octoberfest on HF ? [Update : event maintained, should start Oct 12]

EDIT : Omni just posted a thread about the event, it should start tomorrow, he has been busy a lot due to the server moving, here is the thread : https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6333316

Hope you're all ready guys !





I know Omni has a lot of work due to the server upgrade, but he also posted a thread about the 2026 Octoberfest event in september : https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6331602

Maybe the event is delayed, at list until the notification system is back (it would be hard to post and reply without being aware about new threads / replies, even tho Charlie Sheen made a script to get around the issue : https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6332808 )

I really hope we'll have the Octoberfest event this year too, it would make a 6th award and a row full of pumpkins. This event has been my favorite for years, always nice to see HF with a lot of activity
He mentioned it around a day ago on this post - https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?ti...id63011812

"Oh and I also have to get Octoberfest going."

We just need to be patient is all. He has a lot on his plate right now obviously and much of which takes priority over starting Octoberfest. Plus if it's a sponsored event, that provides even more reason not to rush it.

No problem! It's sort of snuck in there on his post on an entirely unrelated thread so it's understandable that it will go unnoticed by people haha.

I would be hard pressed to come up with 30 threads in 25 days. It's a lot of pressure.

I think the requirements could be adjusted depending on the days remaining, it would be fair in my opnion
I also asked him directly about this 1-2 days ago and he said it would be up soon.Waiting as well
Im excited to try earn my first Pumpkin award when the event is ready.

Wish you good luck buddy ! Feel free to let me know if you need help during the event to reach enough posts to get it :)

It seems possible that requirements could end up being less than last year or at least the threads portion. I'm curious to know if he had set numbers in mind already and if so what they were, assuming we don't get them still whenever he makes a thread for the event. I'm also wondering if he will allow the pumpkin to be purchased again this year or if he's reverting to how it was years prior. I definitely prefer it being earnable only, but do also understand allowing it to be purchased too. If it continues as last year went, maybe at some point for this event in future years there will be separate pumpkins for earning and buying or at the very least something a tad unique to the earned one.

I spoke to Omni about this yesterday. Octoberfest is still going to happen. He's been consumed with fixing bugs. He did mention reduced requirements this year.

Hope you get it man! I think I'm finally gonna go for it myself. My profile's looking sparse after all these years, lol.
This signature is for sale.
Always up for this challenge!

Looking forward for the grind and very busy forum once this award goal is up for chase.
We just need to utilize our patience Omni has a lot of stuff on his plate.

It will be a nice addition to your awards and it looks like it will also complete your second row 😎
