It is good to see that many enjoyed the event. For me, I will be scaling back my participation in seasonal events. I'm not a collector, so grinding away to collect new companions or equipment that don't add to the gameplay just isn't appealing. It might help if we were given a way to unload useless companions. Hallowmas has also made me think more critically about social actions, and how best to engage with others. For the most part, I've been able to find useful contacts here on the forum, and I will probably just stick with that approach. I still love FL, and will continue to play (and spend Fate) for as long as it's around. I've just learned to curtail my excitement when the holidays roll around.

Surface business will draw us away from FL for an undetermined period of time. Forgive us if we cannot respond to social requests in a timely manner.

Not all the events should glue people to the screen, though, and the event did succeed in getting people to start interacting with other players.
After all, Christmas didn't glue people to the screen unless you commit to hoarding a truckful of space-crab substance by brown nosing orphans.

I would also like to add to the suggestion of getting rid of the multi-tiered confessions. The last week was not confession trading, but rather confession begging from people with low BDR to people with high BDR. Trading on a one to one basis is only trading if the two commodities are of equal value. If everyone has a Sinning Jenny and Soft Hearted Widow, but almost no one has Lettice or Feduci, then it's never going to be an even trade. Then it's just charity.
If we're dead set on keeping the weeks multi tiered and having some confessions be more common than others, then there should be an option to trade multiple, smaller confessions. I think this is an insane idea, and would much rather every confession be available both week and have the same probability of draw. Otherwise we're going to have another 80 page thread with almost every single post being some derivation of "I HAVE A MILLION SOFT HEARTED WIDOWS AND NEED A FEDUCI! PLEASE!"

Another possibility would be to have all the NPC confession traders available every day. This could be easier to implement, but might lead to a symmetrical problem: 2nd tier confessions would be more static while 1st tier confessions could be converted to anything.
