If you’ve been overdosing on the Halloween Mann Manor map (like all of us on Ogretime) this video probably sums up your daily experience. -_-;
Also if you enjoy trolling the Horseless Headless Horsemann, you will enjoy this second video!

Just wanted to thank everyone again for the great pumpkins sent in this year! We’re really impressed with the stuff you guys send in, and the fact that each year we get more submissions really tells me this is a fun event and it’s worth doing! Also it makes me look forward to seeing what you guys come up with next year!
With that in mind, we’ve decided to give out a participation prize to everyone who entered this year! It’s a new piece of merch we’ve been working on, and it’s not finished yet, but we’ll send one out to you as soon as we have them!
So whether you were a winner or just a participant, be sure to send some shipping information to the halolzween[at]halolz.com email and we’ll be sending some Ninja-Bot prizes your way!
Also thanks again to our guest judges this year Alyssa, Scott and Hawk for helping me pick winners this year! It’s certainly not getting any easier!
Hope everyone had a great Halloween!

And finally our grand prize for most creative pumpkin goes to Nick Everson for his Halo: Reach Haunted Helmet! Not only is it a great design, but it looks awesome when it’s on fire! I guess that particular haunted helmet belongs to someone at Bungie?
Our runners-up prizes for most creative go to Nick and Molly for their uniquely lit Pacman and Ghosts, and Daniel Potvin for The Original Ghost Pump-kemon that features everyone’s three favorite original ghost Pokémon (and a creatively painted Pokeball!) Well done, and congrats again to everyone for making this a fantastic 3rd Halloween carving contest!

Our grand prize for most humorous pumpkin goes to ChimpoDelFuego for “The Orange Spy” (possibly one of the simplest winning designs we’ve ever seen!) and I was told we would be carving pumpkin!, a pumpkinized version of Gentleman Heavy (complete with top hat and monocle!)
Our humorous runners-up include GengarKing’s PumpKoffin’ (a Koffing with an awesome face is good, but adding a “poison gas attack” makes it great!), and suicid3clutch’s Old Snake takes out an Enemy Soldier for it’s stealthy kill pose! Congrats guys!

Our grand prize for most detailed pumpkin goes to ceemdee with a four-way tie between four of his many amazing pumpkins! The four pumpkins that received the top votes were Creeper, Day of the Tentacle, Homeworld and DeathSpank. The judges were unanimous in that all their top picks for most detailed were pumpkins by ceemdee!
Picking up runner-up prizes are GLaDOS Cake Core and Curiosity Core by LadyFiede (talk about detailed… they’re right up there with that Portal Sentry Pumpkin!) and No King Rules Forever by Artais! Great job guys!

Just like previous years, it’s time to tell you about the judges who will be picking out your 2010 contest winners!
Why announce them today? Because we want the judges to have some mystery so that you guys aren’t specifically making pumpkins for games that a specific judge loves! Gotta keep it fair, right? (Not that it really matters, we play so many games anyway!)
This year’s four judges are:
| Shawn Handyside HALOLZ Editor |
Alyssa Young Bead Sprite Artist |
Scott Ramsoomair Webcomic Artist |
Mohammad Haque Artist & Designer |
Special Abilities: EAT SANDVICH |
Stat Bonus: GARDENING +5 |
Secret Move: PROCRASTINATE |
Combo Attack: STYLUS STRIKE |
Personal Favorites: Team Fortress 2 Super Smash Bros. Mega Man |
Personal Favorites: Kingdom Hearts Phantasy Star Animal Crossing |
Personal Favorites: Pokémon Legend of Zelda Lucasarts Classics |
Personal Favorites: Halo Left4Dead Call of Duty |
Each judge was asked to pick their 1st, 2nd and 3rd favorite for each of this years categories, and the highest rated in each category will be declared the winner! Then the remaining favorites will be selected as runner-ups!
