An autumnal chill is in the air, and all across the ‘verse ghoulish tricks and fiendish treats await the unsuspecting. And as part of our annual Day of the Vara celebration, it’s time for that terrifying, time-honored tradition – that’s right, it’s the return of the Star Citizen Pumpkin Carving Contest! Carve, paint, or do whatever you'd like to theme your pumpkin with a Star Citizen flair for a chance to win one of three ghastly gifts: :first_place_medal: Drake Caterpillar Standalone in-game ship with LTI (in-game lifetime insurance) and Ghoulish Green ship paint :second_place_medal: Drake Buccaneer Standalone in-game ship with LTI (in-game lifetime insurance) and Ghoulish Green ship paint :third_place_medal: Drake Cutlass Black Standalone in-game ship with LTI (in-game lifetime insurance) and Ghoulish Green ship paint We'll judge the best pumpkins based on their quality, style, and general "goodness". Submit your ghostly gourd either on the Spectrum submission thread, or on Twitter or Instagram using BOTH hashtags #StarCitizen and #Halloween. Be sure to get your pumpkins (or if not available in your region, any gourd will do!) submitted by October 27th, 2021 at 11:59pm Pacific time in order for them to be eligible. As always, be sure to read the rules before submitting. Happy Day of the Vara, Citizens! Update: Thank you all for submitting your wonderful pumpkins! We will be announcing the winners shortly. Update 2: Congratulations to the winners of this year's Pumpkin Carving Contest! :first_place_medal: Avocet :second_place_medal: Stell_BriBalt :third_place_medal: Kattgoddes This was extremely difficult to narrow down, all of your pumpkins and gourds were incredible!
