Thanks Moon. I found it. I had to unhide it by clicking on an arrow down there.

I have over 100 now. That should last me till next Halloween. If Billiscandyhog doesn't steal them, that is.

[Opti]

I tried. I don't think I'm going to catch up to Bill. I wish mine were real dark chocolate bars.

[Opti]

Tricked again, darn it.

Maybe someone can create a Pokémon Go type game for PB.  Gotta click them all.

For some reason I have found this game to be incredibly addictive.

[Happy prose]

I'm on an ipad. I have four candies, but a little pumpkin never appears on my bottom right bar. I have icons of people, maybe a newspaper (?) and the settings wheel. As long as I get the candy, I can't complain!

I believe you have to get 5 candies to get the pumpkin.

5 candy's gets you the pumpkin, 20 candy's gets you double numbers, like finding 6 candy's in one shot.

[Happy prose]

Haha...now I'll hang out here until I get my five candies!

Geeze - how did you guys get so many candies so quick??

You mean it isn't because of this cool costume I am wearing that I get more than one candy?

Once you get to 20 it is easier to accumulate the candies quickly because you can earn multiples.  Plus keep refreshing your pages.

Yah had to give away the trick didn't you?

Or take a stroll down a good long street and knock at each door that has a lighted pumpkin.

Wow, Sharon, Bills and Haapi are way up there.

I changed the skin so that I could see the candies better.  Sometimes, they can be tricky to find with the previous skin I used.

Hey gang..

So one of the support admins made a fun little scavenger hunt game. It's coded for Halloween at the moment but it can be adapted for other holidays.

As you browse the forum, watch for "floating" pieces of candy. Tap or click on them to collect.

After you've collected 5 pieces (if I recall correctly), a small pumpkin will appear in your PBN bar. That's the tiny little bar in your lower right hand corner that enables you to easily switch forums, get to your global account settings, etc. (If you don't see one, look for a little arrow and click it. It may just be hidden.) If that pumpkin is lit up, there is candy to collect on that page.

Unfortunately, you have to be on a PC, or using the desktop version of a mobile browser to play - just like the zombie game.

There are no prizes. It's just for fun. There may be a few bugs still, too. Try to enjoy it anyway.

Thanks Moonie! So does that mean we will get to play this game for Christmas? What is collected for Christmas? Presents, Ornaments, Candy Canes?

[moon/Laura]

I don't know if I'll set it up for other holidays or not. You know how much I hate the holidays, after all! But if I did, it could be anything.

I just started playing late last night. This is sort of peaceful, isn't it?

Yes you know I am right there with you hating the holidays but this is kind of fun and addicting.

How in the world did you get 1350? I spent some time collecting those things and only have 70 something, I'm obviously missing something.

[moon/Laura]

For Christmas I hope it's candy canes that we have to find, this is a sure bet time waster but I love it.
