I've been looking forward to checking this out since I saw the new badge art.
And I even have the day off, so I can go play around on Test. Yay!

Well...that sounds pretty awesome! Too bad I probably won't be out of work by then. 
I've got a 4-day weekend around Halloween though, so I'll get in on it then. 
I heard that there will be a special guest Zombie making an appearance this year...

I should be around to help with this. Anyone else that heads over, let's team up and help test the new event. Just send a tell to @Cath whenever you're available. (Note: You might want to patch up tonight if you haven't patched Test in a while.)

We will be hosting a targeted test of the 2009 Halloween event on the North American and European Training Room servers on Friday, October 2nd at 11:00 AM Pacific / 2:00 PM Eastern.
The event will last for approximately 6 hours and will end at approximately 5:00 PM Pacific / 8:00 PM Eastern.
If you are able to participate, please post your feedback in the following forum thread.
We would like to get your feedback on the following :
- Are objectives clear when the Event is running?
- Are rewards being handed out correctly?
- Are there any problems with the event occurring in any City Zone? (Note: The event will only be present In Paragon City or the Rogue Isles City Zones, and not in any PvP Zones, Hazard Zones, Trial Zones or Co-Op Zones)
- Are there any graphical effect bugs?
- Do banner icons appear correctly on the MiniMap when the event is running?
- Do waypoints correctly appear when the event is running? (Note: Navigation waypoints of active Missions orient players to the Halloween Event objectives when a players character is near one, and should disappear when they leave the area.)
- Are enemy NPCs appearing at the appropriate level? (i.e. a Level 50 should be able to fight side-by-side with a Level 5 character).
- Are all badges awarded correctly?
