What is Oozefest?

Oozefest is our annual Halloween event and celebration! We've got activities lined up on the site for the entire week and some trick-or-treating fun to earn Candy. Check back every day to see if there's any new content - all our Halloween fun will get cross-posted to this page.


What is Candy?

Candy is the first event-specific site currency! And an introduction to site currency in general =)

  • You'll earn Candy by participating in Oozefest.
  • You can spend your Candy for limited-time cosmetics in our new site shop.

Okay, Cool. How Do I Earn Candy?

Candy can be earned by completing tasks on the site! Here are all the different tasks available:

  • Complete trick-or-treating clues within our card databases.
  • Completing achievements with Candy rewards.

Premium users will earn Candy slightly faster while browsing the site.

What Can I Get With My Candy?

We've got forum titles, profile headers, and coming a little bit later during the event, new avatar borders!

    Should the leaderboard not be chronologically sorted perhaps? 😋

        😁

        LOL, was it that obvious what my intention was? I see that my 'wish' has been granted in the meantime.

        Really loving the speed with which the site updates are happening! Thumbs up for all the devs! 👍

        EDIT: And the chronological sort order is 'broken' or 'lost' again, lol

        EDIT2: And fixed again... I will refrain from future repetition (shudderwocking) onwards  ;-)

          And now I'm 4th when I technically solved all the clues 2nd :D

          I'm sure Flux and his crew of awesome mods will fix it before the event it over ;)

            I hope so too. Being first or second is not even the real issue, consider that every person on the leaderboard has solved all clues, we both could even not be listed anymore if achievement accomplished datetime is not used part of the sort order.

            EDIT: The reverse might also be an issue, meaning that if the leaderboard is 'full', the latest person to join the 64 clues found club will never be shown. I don't know which solution feels the least worse, but in this case I will be biased 😇

      Cool, how many days are left to obtain these avatar themes? I already picked too many cosmetics and have to collect more candy now.

          Is it including November 3? Coz that would mean I have just enough time to collect 125 candy which is required for the more 'expensive' avatar theme.

          EDIT: My math failed me, I only need 4 more days to collect enough candy. I have sufficient time, so no worries!

            It is supposed to be ending when the clock dings Nov 3 Eastern timezone. Someone does have to be around to click to make that happen though so there's a chance we might go over a few minutes or so.

            The shop rewards will be available for 1 week after the event, to give everyone enough time to buy anything they would like and still have candy for.

      Face Collector has collected the faces of all the 9 original classes, and with the inception of DH, he has to find one more. It's a little bit sketchy given that the flavor text hints he might not have all the original 9 anyway.

    I really enjoy the Oozefest, but I must admit, that for non-english speakers some of the riddles are extremely hard. I completely understand the riddle but I feel like I miss a context, especially in Hearthstone ones. For example I found the card for What happens when Gorillas dress up for Hallows End? but I still do not understand why this card is the answer for this riddle.

      When Whispers of the Old Gods hit, they did a bunch of thematic cards that were upgraded, evil versions of themselves. Dressing up is getting a new set of art for the same character.

      I think the clue works well only because there are not very many monkeys in Hearthstone, which really narrows the field down.

    I'm stuck with the following MTGA clues:

    • This card entered a body building competition and found out he seriously misunderstood the objective.
    • A card that will make you scream, or will hand out candy, one or the other.

    Additional clues would be appreciated :)

      Hint time!

      For the first one...

      Show Spoiler
      This character is well-known for stitching together bodies, as well as being incredibly petty with his sister

      For the second one...

      Show Spoiler
      A lesser known name for a holiday, as well as being arguably one of the weirdest sorceries ever printed. If i'm being honest, this card is super hard to come up hints for so hopefully this won't be a dead giveaway

        Thanks @Echo for the extra hints! 

        All done and I only play HS, it was quite a fun brain teasing exercise. Thanks Flux and co for an awesome event, and the week isn't even over yet!

        Still more to come! :O :O :O

      +1, missing those same 2 answers as well, along with: A protector for all the humans on Innistrad, just don't get on her bad side or she might go insane and start trying to purify everything.

      The hint gives away so much, but after clicking every human in Innistrad, I've run out of ideas x_x

      Edit: Ah, found the Innistrad answer!

      Show Spoiler
      The 'protector' is not a human herself
