SB Fag Ends

Participants in the Halloween challenge will be hearing from us in due course, but what about the comm as a whole? What did we get for beating the ghost? Well, the layout's back to normal, which is a relief, but also, I think we'll realise, in true children's-story fashion, our biggest Halloween treat of all were all the shiny things we found to enjoy. And so, in a rather concrete representation of that, behold the ghost transformed...

The ghost is reeling, but its strength's not quite gone yet. You're tired, but you battle on, forcing the spook further back into the attic. All around you are boxes and shiny things; you're sure a treat awaits you this Halloween.

All the same, you wish something would come to help you now.

But then, as if the attic hears you, something does.

RULES FOR THE BONUS ROUND

Now that all the prompts have been claimed, the mods have decided to reward everyone by freeing up some more busting points! Until the prompt-claims are freed up again tomorrow for the final showdown with the ghost, you can respond to any of these new bonus prompts that you like and get busting points for them. Everyone is sharing these prompts now, so a point will be given to anyone who takes on the prompt, whether a response has already been posted or not. However, you personally can only do one response per prompt, in order to get an absolute maximum of twenty-three bonus points.

Extra importantly, the bonus round will end when the announcement comes tomorrow evening GMT that all the remaining ghost prompts are available for busting - after this point bonus busts will not count. If the entire ghost is busted before there is an announcement saying it's the end of the challenge, you can assume the bonus round is back on and continue to get more points - but only after the ghost has been busted completely. Sorry to be complicated, but busting that ghost is our challenge and our priority! So we, er, may be forcing it on you competitive ones. ;)

PS. If you could pop a link to your bonus busts into the comments of this post, that would help us mods a lot (and probably readers too)!
