	Too much time. Fun though.

	godzilla:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 22:40 GMT	3 points
	think so? hmmm... you may be right. thanks for the input.

	Thank you, I didn't see you make any response, but I'll just assume you didn't bother to check similar games, which only takes a few seconds and should really just be common courtesy. This, however, is a neat quiz, but if you can still respect my opinion I think that a few of the hints are slightly too ambiguous.

	godzilla:	Oct 9th, 2009 at 01:40 GMT	3 points
	i actually did respond, but then i took the quiz down upon seeing yours. and no, i hadn't yet mastered the the whole 'checking for similar quizzes' thing yet... honestly i had just woke up & was so excited to see this new function that i jumped right in. :) many apologies.

	aerodynamic:	Oct 9th, 2009 at 01:52 GMT	2 points
	thanks again, and I should also apologize because in retrospect my comment on your quiz looked a lot harsher once written down that it did in my head, but I suppose I'm a little frustrated that people are suddenly not liking my quiz as much as its rating is significantly dropping.

	I typed in "All Saint's Day" like ten times for 'the reason for the season'. That clue is way too ambiguous.

	godzilla:	Oct 14th, 2009 at 02:39 GMT	3 points
	ok, ok, i'll clarify some more. sheesh. you people and your "ambiguous".... just figured if i made the quiz too easy, it would rob it of all the fun!

	If it's too ambiguous there's no way to know what the answer is. Rather than "sheesh"ing us, learn to write better clues.

	well so far it's been played 1,055 times, and those who guessed every one are the largest percentage. so it must not be too difficult. but thanks for being so unpleasant just the same. And rather than leaving smarmy comments and ruining everyone's fun, learn to exercise your brain a little more.

	These are fun. More Halloween ones, please. In preparation for next year!

	@godzilla: Please do shut up. If you can't accept that your quiz may have mistakes, do not post. And on that note, what the hell is with "moon/stars"? Would "candle" not make exponentially more sense?

	bigeyethresher:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 02:50 GMT	1 point
	A candle is not a traditional Halloween icon, retard. Did you not notice the title of this quiz?

	kagomeshuko:	Nov 13th, 2009 at 02:43 GMT	-2 points
	clues are not great here.

	Catherine_F:	Nov 16th, 2009 at 18:29 GMT	-2 points
	@bigeyethresher, what do you light your jack-o-lantern with?

	bigeyethresher:	Nov 21st, 2009 at 09:26 GMT	3 points
	I don't see how that's relevant. You scoop out a jack-o-lantern with a spoon (at least some do), but you don't see spoons decorating shop windows come October.

	I was able to guess all of these. It helps to think of classic Halloween decorations. SPOILER: most, if not all of these clues accept multiple answers: "macabre tourist attraction" accepts cemetary, graveyard, and haunted house. Tricky!
