[Update as of 11/2/20]:
- All of the trick-or-treaters have been satisfied by your generosity. They will no longer spawn and knock on your doors.
- Trick’cord Treat has now been officially deactivated, but you can still use the h!help command to see who were the top 10 item collectors in your server!
Once a year on a dark and stormy night, the world’s most frightful fears, horrifying haunts, and scariest of skeletons roam the streets for sugary sustenance on the front doors of millions of fully-stocked residents throughout the world. It’s a bonafide beastly bash!
2020 isn’t like every year though… what was once a hustling bustling holiday may be nothing more than a silent spooky sight for many places in the world. Perhaps you already live in the middle of a frightening forest or desert that’s never had trick-or-treaters. Or maybe Halloween isn’t celebrated where you live, but it’s been your dream to stalk for sugary snacks.
We want to help bring a trick-or-treating experience to EVERYONE, no matter where your haunted house resides. To help, we’re launching a special limited-time Halloween bot called Trick’cord Treat that anyone can use to bring some seasonal specters to your server.
What does this article cover?
⚠️ Phobia Warning: One of the trick or treaters is a spider, hidden among a plethora of werewolves, witches, and Wumpuses. If anyone in your server is afraid of deathly spiders or similar monsters, you might want to give them a heads up that these creatures may pop up in chat once in a while. 😨
What does the bot do?
Once you add our Halloween bot to your server, 40 unique trick-or-treaters will start knockin’ on your door for some sweet treats. Don’t worry, they’re not actual random people joining!
It’s a game based on speed, with whoever giving a trick or treat to the guest first receiving an item for their game inventory. The items to collect range from common trinkets such as Hairball🙀 to ultra-rare collectibles like a Miniature Crown👑.
The bot can show a scoreboard of who’s closest to completing their collection of trick-or-treat prizes, and whoever has the most items in your server will be given a special role called the “Champion of Halloween!”
Only one person can have this role, so gather some more items and take their orange crown from them!
In case the Champion of Halloween role is not added to members correctly, please check your role hierarchy in Server Settings > Roles
