I love this time of year -- the leaves are turning colors, there's a cool breeze in the air, and we're getting closer and closer to both Hallow's End and Halloween. And speaking of Halloween, it's time once again for the annual Blizzard pumpkin contest -- Bornakk
has the deets on the forums. Just carve up a pumpkin at least as cool as this one featuring Illy D (it was one of
last year's winners), take a picture of it lit, and
send it to the judges through this form. The pumpkins last year seemed very influenced by
Burning Crusade, so this year, we'll probably see plenty of Arthas and Death Knight pumpkins in the entries (I'd like to see a Nerubian pumpkin, myself).
I can't wait to see the winners, though truth be told, I just can't wait for
Hallow's End -- the best candy of all are the purple Epics falling like rain off the Headless Horseman.

I agree. This time of year does rock.

How do you even compete with a carving like that?

Agreed, you shouldn't have posted that totally uber Illidan pumpkin. I know my butterfisted sausagefingers cannot compete with this kind of excellence. Next time feature some kind of sadly squashed eggplant that I might harbor some meager hope.

I used to guild with Sideburns and Keeff way back in the day on my first server. Great guys, amazing with a pumpkin and a knife :P

Meh I am not impressed with that carving.

Meh I am not impressed with your existence.
See how easy it is to put something down no matter how big or small it is, with little to no effort? Now go do something productive instead of putting down someone's art.

I would LOVE to see your pathetic excuse for a carving.

actually its more about the idea. the carving skills do help though. I won for my spore bat last year and I really felt like I could have done a better job on the carving but using the three layers and a good idea is what did it for me. be inventive and fun.
