Ditto on not going so far as to say that either, although not doing Halloween would absolutely be the most utterly foolish mistake they could make & certainly refute all logic in that it's a cornerstone of the show, so I'd say we can count on it 8)
So, I emailed EA asking about this year's Halloween event and asking whether or not we would get one. Here is what they replied with.
" Dear Maxim

Basically, IMO, this confirms a Halloween event or some sort of event. I can't wait!
It cracks me up that the first thing he does is apologize for the "inconvenience this issue has caused" and "how frustrating this issue must be". I sense that English is not his first language.
But good news! Thanks for sharing!

there might be something different though. WD was not here this year and HW will start later. Maybe something different and new and a small tiein for halloween? it'd be weird though due to the really nice previous HW events
At the end of September people will whine about things they missed before they started playing the game. EA will capitalized on those players. For popular events there is more recycled items than new stuff. Halloween is one money makers for EA.
There is no reason to say this won't be a big event. At the least it will be a small event like Valentine's but I have high expectations for this years event.
We should make a petition to end this current event in mid September
So we can fully have a halloween event this year
Or I can see the halloween start oct 14 and end the week iof US thanksgiving
I'm not really reading this as a confirmation. Seems like the same kind of assumption that people here make....there always has been an event so there probably will be one in the future.

I think this means that Halloween will have real prizes like Stonecutters and Clash of Clones aka no wheels. Also I highly doubt Halloween will be a tie in it is a huge money maker for EA. Also people are acting like they don't want a lot of major events which is untrue they WANT a lot of major events. Here's why the major events don't interfere with normal updates plus they generate more cash for EA since we want the event stuff. So the more events the more money for them. So if anything I would expect a BIGGER Halloween event this year with more premiums of course. But that guy probably got a little sneak peak at Halloween as they working on it and he probably thinks the community will like it to. It doesn't confirm much but it still leaves me hopeful that we will get a great Halloween event thanks for sharing this

I agree, however he said that going by the past, he knows I'll like it (similar). :-D
