jesus... did you log off at all? 
I think i got like... 3 sets of salvage and a few badges on 2-3 chars. heh.
I've no real idea to be honest.
I'd one good run on a PuG on Sunday afternoon featuring several forumite roleplayers (Shadowe, Shadowghost and Darth someone if I remember rightly). Other than that I didn't Trick or Treat too much really, I had all the cossie things from last year and badges don't really interest me.
I've no idea how many doors I clicked but I gained a couple of levels on my mid-30's night widow in the process. I got 102 salvage pieces before I out-levelled Nerva and gave up on trick or treating (incidentally, I had collected 88 salvage pieces before I finally got the Buster badge). I only took part in a few invasions due to poor computer performance but enjoyed the ones I did do, especially on my SS/FA brute; I think he was the only one I got the boss badge on and I couldn't be bothered trying to get the pumpkin head costume part on any character.
Defiant 50�s: Generalissimo, Righteous Bob, Splortch, Brutus Cayuga
Union 50's: Chimera Obscura, Diet Anthracite, Grim Proctologist, Puny Little Minion, Raging Bitumen
In Soviet Russia, mission farm you!
Got the badges for zombie minions and lieutenants on my main badge toon but not the bosses badges. Grumph. Spent the last night online but never saw an event on the event message channel. Well... sighs.
got some badges, but just on one character since it's never clear where ppl come together to kill an invasion.
I got the 4 new zombie invasion badges on 29 characters 
I have the full set of Halloween badges on 20 characters although all of those had the ToT and GM badges from earlier years.
Octavian Vanguard
@ohmsEU and @ohms 2
Badging character: Bimble on the Union server, Badgehunter.com and City Info Tracker.
No idea of what exactly I got...got Halloween salvage for all 16 of my new toons (altho I had some spare from previous years) acouple got a few zombie raids done, various badges, couple took down EB's to get the pumpkin head but none of my villains...strangely enough the EBs never showed up. Got all the costumes on various characters, some got the badges some didn't. Mainly picked up the Dead Head badge from the doors infact I think this is the only ToT critter badge I picked up this year.

I'm not changing this signature until I'm proclaimed 'King of the World'.
I got 12 random cossies and about 20 random Halloween salvage drops (the ones that add the additional slots)
But then again, i hardly played it this year.. first time in ages i haven't been around for an event.

Darth Delicious - is that a great name or what?
Any way...
I ToTed my lvl 45 MM to lvl 50
My lvl 30 controller to 32
some lowbie tanks from 5 to 16, 8 to 17
in my base I now have roughly 175 salvage, with the low being 32 hamidon costumes.
the zombie badges on about 10 characters
finished off some of the clothing collection badges on some of my badgers.
Bashed 2 Eochai's, one was in a team of 4.
I've made about 60mil over the event, about as much as I've collected in 6 months.
All in all, I think I did rather well 
Especially happy with getting some lowbies up to more interesting lvls.

Talos, on the Hill by the Green line
Atlas, around Ms Liberty
Galaxy, the park before Back Alley Brawler, or at GG when there's a group of RPers there.
Peregrine, Portal Corp logo
Steel Canyon, either at the Uni, or near Positron.
Skyway, often south of Synapse, or right in that little park of his
Kings, below the steps by Blue Steel
Seems that trainers are a popular gathering place, though I doubt Bricks has the that effect and I've no idea of IP, nor the hazzard zones.

Steel Canyon gathering spots seemed to vary a lot. One time it was at the university, then near Postitron, then near the hospital and yet another time it was near Wentworths.
Nitoichi managed to get all the badges except the Jack one, the Seelie one, and the spirits one. In fact, I don't believe she ever spawn one single spirit. Personally, I was quite happy with that. She's also got 5 full sets of salvage and some extras, which I think I may save several of until she hits 50 and needs spending money (so to speak).

Faultline seemed to be on the plaza between Mirror Spirit and the Pocket D entrance.
Never managed to get to any of the Haz Zones (FBZ???) in time, so think they were a bit of a waste. DA would have been pretty atmospheric...
Is it time for the dance of joy yet?
I got a full set of salvage on my new alt so I could get a costume slot. Other than that, I didn't care.
However, it turned out that Smith was not a time-travelling Terminator
Tbh this Halloween event was a bit boring even with the Zombie invasion, it felt the Rikti Invasion with Zombies. Next year they need to have something a little more unique to spice it up.
Back on topic, I got some cossies on some toons, no serious ToTing, just clicking doors whenever I'm free. I did get all the Zombie badges on one of my Union toons, though. Also got new cossie slot on a toon or two. Apart from that I didn't do too much this year.
Well I collected the badges on my main badge collector characters. I made sure I got enougn salvage for every toon that did need it. Even managed to collect a load of badges on toons that are slightyly underused. I did not try to collct spirit badges on my characters though. Two of em was hard enough as it is.
Still sad to see that when i knock on doors now nothing will get out of it. Bye bye fun game while you wait for the team to gather.
I managed to get all the event badges on my current 'main' and roughly 16 full sets of invention salvage.
I also earned lots of inf and got 2 purples from ToTing
Now that the Halloween event is over, how did everyone do?
Personally, I managed to get the badges for zombie minions and lieutenants on all 16 heroes (solo), and the boss + EB badges on eight of those.
I also managed to get all three costume collection badges on all 16 (though one had Clothes Horse from last year), as well as the ones for zombies, witches and werewolves. Got the badge for vampires on four characters, and spirits on none. Also got the badge for helping bring Eochai down on two heroes, but not Jack, or unseelie.
I also kept partial track of my results for trick or treating. Carried it out in Brickstown on ten level 40 heroes (examplared down to 39 via Ouroboros so I wouldn't outlevel the regular content) up to the point where they had gained the Clothes Horse, Fashionable, Dead Head, Malleus and Shifter badges.The numbers might not be 100% accurate since I might have missed a count here and there, but probably at least 95%.
Combined, I clicked on 1412 doors. 78.7% (1111) were tricks, 21.3% (301) were treats. I had to deal with 2969 enemies, distributed as follows: 1438 zombies (48.4%), 772 witches (26%), 494 streng (16.6%), 178 werewolves (6%), 59 vampires (2%) and 28 spirits (0.9%)
I also got a decent amount of event salvage, though not all of it was gathered in the experiment mentioned above (some of it came from other characters, and some from the characters in the experiment when I didn't keep track). All in all, I got enough for 64 complete sets, and plenty of extras of some types. 82 Back Alley Brawler gloves, 77 Hamidon costumes, 84 Lord Recluse masks and 64 Statesman masks. That should last me a lifetime I guess since I had 21 sets left over from past years, even after unlocking the 5th slot on all existing heroes and giving a few sets away.
It was a busy couple of weeks...
