=== 2024 ===
As part of Halloween, cell colors were enabled and the chat was temporarily enabled starting on October 30 and ending the next morning.
The center console was replaced with a pumpkin, which proceeded to rot over the course of a few days. Once it had disintegrated completely, some users expressed relief with one anonymous user stating, "i hated the pumpkin."
Following calls to keep cell colors enabled, it's being held longer to gauge how it's being handled by the community.<gallery mode="packed">

=== 2025 ===
For Halloween 2025, the Center Console once again turned into a pumpkin.
Frontpage [[chat]] was also brought back, temporarily at first, though it ended up staying for good due to requests from the community.
On November 6th, the pumpkin started to decay like in the previous year. Afterwards FP made the choice to not restore the Center Console until the following day.<gallery mode="packed" heights="200">
