Hey folks,

It's that time of year where the cold weather starts descending upon us and the mist rolls into the town in the dark of night. The leaves change colors, the days get shorter, and the frightening silence of midnight becomes empowered with an eerie aura. Even in the world of Marble Blast, things aren't always what they seem to be...

Starting today, October 13th, 2014 through November 1st, 2014, you will want to keep your eyes open for Aayrl. Posing as the Great Pumpkin, vast riches and glorious trophies may be earned throughout the Halloween season if you play some brand new custom levels on the Spookbox Derby multiplayer server. Join the Great Pumpkin as we parade through spectacular parties, roll through mysterious forests, and bounce around dusty cemeteries!

Don't let the dead of night scare you away, as we'll be hosting a couple of Marble Trivia events throughout the month of October. Keep your eyes on the Website Shoutbox for three-hour warnings of upcoming trivia events for your chance to win additional achievements and some other delicious goodies.

Still not satisfied? Join us on October 23rd at 7:00 PM EST (00:00 UT) for an all out brawl against some of the bravest the University of Vermont has to offer! We'll be playing various Marble Blast Multiplayer maps with an open UVM versus Marble Blast teams-based tournament. Think you have what it takes to topple UVM?

We hope everyone will have a chance to partake in these events. Don't be shy, the crypts are delightful!

Agh, don't remind me >_>


This event sounds very intriguing, and I'll certainly be looking forward to it. :)

Tackling UVM, eh? Sounds like fun, count me in!

Actually, count me into this whole post!

Trivia sees cool. I'd suggest adding a section of the forums just for forum games, activities, or events, just like a kind a game room! Keeps the shoutbox cleaner, and maybe you could add other things like Hangman and such as well, except better! :P

Will the server be up 24/7, or is it an occasional thing? If so, how long will it be up during the whole day? Perhaps add it to the (dedicated) server list?

Thanks for the feedback, promarbler14.

I've added a forum thread for the Trivia Event itself. You may find it here.

The server is currently going to be available periodically as I hop online and offline. Chances are if I am in the multiplayer area of MBP, then I am hosting a new Halloween themed level for folks to join in and experience. I am in the process of constructing a Dedicated Server for the purposes of hosting an event server and a newbies only server (non-established players only). More details on this will be provided as I finalize the Dedicated Server on my end.
