The Great Halloween Pumpkin Hunt!
For about a week in October, Halloween pumpkins will be visible around the entire survival server to people that vote. The top people who collect the most valuable pumpkins will be rewarded with prizes!
What do they look like?
How do I collect them?
You collect Halloween Pumpkins by getting close to them. They will then disappear.
Will I have to place or break any blocks to get to a pumpkin?
No, you do not need to place any blocks or pillar up to get a pumpkin. There are no pumpkins in privated houses, because those people are mean and afraid they'll see someone. If you do cause issues by placing or breaking blocks to get an pumpkin, it will be considered griefing, and you may end up being banned. Do not make 1x1 pillars to get to eggs.
Where can I find them?
Anywhere in the survival server. Mostly above ground. Some pumpkins are inside large buildings. A few pumpkins are hidden underground. Some are in the nether. Some are in the end. Some are out in the open.
I don't see any!
You need to have voted at least once in the past month, or be promoted to Resident.
How do I tell how many pumpkins I've collected?

How do I tell how many pumpkins Neytiri collected?

Do I get anything for collecting them?

Will I need to bring anything?
