If you're a fan of any of Turbine's games -- be it Lord of the Rings Online, Dungeons and Dragons Online, or Asheron's Call -- the Halloween season is going to hold the potential for some extra treats.

Turbine's annual pumpkin-carving contest is on again, and the prizes are as good as ever. Carve a pumpkin in the theme of your favorite Turbine game and send in a digital photograph. There will be one winner for each game. The winning DDO and LotRO pumpkin carvers will receive 3,000 Turbine Points each and a special forum title. The winning Asheron's Call pumpkin will receive 60 days of free game time, a special pumpkin golem, an in-game title, and a forum title. One runner-up in each category will receive a special forum title.

It's a pretty good deal for having a little Halloween fun afk, so check out all the details and get to carving!

As Halloween fades into a memory of candy, costumes, and cheaply-made outdoor decorations, the MMOsphere slowly closes its doors on the various holiday events. Final Fantasy XI's pumpkin-carving contest on Allakhazam has finally drawn to a close, with the votes in and tallied and the winners determined. And if you doubt that there's a great deal of talent and originality on display with the contest, the excellently-rendered San d'Orian knight charging into battle above wasn't the winner -- they placed fourth.

Third place went to a rendition of the title image for this year's Halloween event, while second place went to Final Fantasy XI's resident mad professor herself. First place went -- quite deservedly -- to this hauntingly well-rendered image of a tonberry in the darkness. The official announcement includes a tally of the votes, but that might not be quite as exciting to casual observers as a gallery of all the entries. Congratulations to the winners, and here's hoping that next year brings still more pumpkin-carving fun for FFXI.
