One is mystified as to why they didn't swap these around a little so this one is here for Halloween and the Yeti King is closer to the December holiday season. If I recall correctly they've been in the same order since all 4 were added but surly swapping a couple around to have the holiday themed 2 close to their appropriate holiday would make more sense.
this event can be seen with good ideas to switch and bad ideas to switch, it also depends on point of view.
reasons for not changing:
the first reason that it may not be spooky squash is that halloween is not as popular as in the united states. (i can say that for i am one of the few people who does not live in North America) in other countries, it is not as popular. It's not all about you North America.
reasons for changing:
a good reason for changing is that so the GW2 community is going to say, that the input from EA and popcap is starting to get sloppy and disorganized. also incase EA or poppa read this, the line above, does not reflect my actual opinion.
the last reason is that if they change the community will be happy and will keep playing happily and the game can keep its good reputation.
all those are good views on the current event/ social crisis involving spooky squash. if you think I missed one add more and quote this line.

You have a point, then again Americans are the type to think it is all about them... That aside, it is correct many countries don't celebrate Halloween the way we do here. However, I think it is a matter of best fit. On the one hand you have a gnome event that doesn't fit any season anywhere. On the other you have a Squash event that fits North American halloween. Wouldn't something be better than nothing? Besides, they are already doing the Lawn of Doom event, it would be silly to ignore the Squash on the grounds of the rest of the world isn't celebrating it. (Why do one without the other?)
Tomorrow I will know the answer to my own question. Hopefully, PopCap listens to the community request.

@EA_Roger to comment the boss hunt for October.
Should we follow Halloween and Lawn of Doom theme or the broken (out of synch) sequence ?
Roger is on vacation for at least one more week. We have a substitute but I have yet to see or hear from him. I believe that popcap probably makes a decision like this on their own without input from EA, and I also believe the the game devs are hardly aware of this forum's existence. So don't get your hopes up.
I tweet to Justin W twice to request this and he didn't reply back so I'm not sure if there's another channel to dev.
Dang, I've all the hats as well, so I will just open 50 rainbow chest then play something else (Gnome bomb and TT).
I'm not going into that portal.
and..... it wasn't swapped.
