    Hello everyone. We are quickly entering the spooky domain and have a lot to cover in this announcement. So let's get started!


    HALLOWEEN EVENT

    To begin, we just launched the GTM Halloween event on the server! This event will run during the night cycle of the server only. During this event, skeletons will spawn around the map equipped with basic armor and a baseball bat. These skeletons will then target players.

    You may
    kill these skeletons to obtain Roofied chocolate. Roofied chocolate can either be consumed for a random potion effect or sold in the trashcan for more (only during this event!).

    These skeletons also have a
    rare chance of dropping a Candy bag. Players can use this candy bag to go trick-o-treating! Simply right-click the door of a premium house while the event is active for a sweet reward (more roofied cholocate!) or an unfriendly yell...

    Trick or treating costs
    $10,000 per each use. This $10,000 is then put inside a lottery pot. On rare occasions, a player has a small chance to win 50% of the entire trick-or-treat pot and enrich their wealth with treasures!

    Still confused? No problem! I made y'all a video explaining it all in a
    British accent that sounds so real that it's even better then @iExpo's accent..! Trust me.




    SALE & HALLOWEEN STORE UPDATE

    We are happy to announce a 25% store sale for the duration of this event on all major store packages! Go get that rank upgrade you've wanted or those crowbars for some smexy rewards!

    We have also added
    Halloween event packages to the GTM store. These packages contain a bundle of goodies like permits, money, crowbars, roofied chocolate (good shit), candy bags and more! Go check them out at https://store.grandtheftmc.net/spook2019!

    *** The Halloween event and store sale will be active until Thursday, October 31st, 11:59 PM EST!


    NEW TAGS

    Well, folks, there is that. Now I would like to announce the addition of some HOT new tags. Check em' out boys!

    3.png 4.png 5.png 1.png 2.png

    You will be able to
    obtain these event tags in the /voteshop throughout the Halloween event. Currently, you can obtain the Trick and the Treat event tags in /voteshop. More coming next week, so be sure to check back! On that note, for those of you who want the Trick and the Treat event tags, I hope you got some vote tokens saved up because they will be replaced with next week's vote shop rotation (because the vote shop gets changed every week).


    SPOOKINESS IN THE DISCORD

    Finally, a rather minor announcement, but nevertheless, we would like to encourage you all to join our spooky renames on our discord! It is just a fun little activity to bring the community a little closer together <3.

    So here is how it works... Get the first letter of your username (or name), and find a Halloween related word that begins with that letter and stick it in front of your name!

    For example, I am
    Skylix. So what Halloween related word begins with S? Spooky! Spooky Skylix! See? Easy enough right?

    Well here are a few more examples!

    OTHER STUFF

    But wait! There is more! We would like you all to be aware of the following minor bug fixes and updates:

    -> /TokenShop has now been removed completing the removing process as announced here: https://grandtheftmc.net/threads/removal-of-tokens-tokenshop.10516/

    -> Fixed a bug that was causing Minesantos (GTM1) to crash at 2 AM EST daily.

    -> Updates to Gary the mighty Anticheat (and my son).

    -> Updated /report to prevent players from reporting staff or players that don't exist...

    -> Fixed the broken link in /discord
