Gather round you coven of witches,
For the chance to win some Mumsnet riches,*
As it's that time of year once more,
When (plastic) ravens croak and monsters roar,
And the un-dead climb out from their tomb,
When the night takes on an eerie gloom,
Mumsnetters have but one ambition - to win the Halloween name change competition....

Welcome, you spooky lot, to the 2019 Halloween Name Change Competition.

Enter by posting on this thread under your terrifying new name, which should be a clever play on your usual username.

You have until Monday 28th October to post on this thread with your name change, and we'll then create a shortlist of the ten best ones.

You can then vote for your favourite, which we'll announce on Thursday 31st October. The winner will receive a bundle of goodies from the MNHQ cupboard of treats.

Halloween Grin

*tat

UPDATE The poll is now live so cast your vote nowooooooo!

We can only see the left hand edge of the graph, where a single or more votes gets the graph line as far as number one (shown at top right). If we could see further to the right we would see the full length of the lines.

bleedinggrowler · 29/10/2019 13:20

Hah! MN have changed it now so you can see the full graph!

You are in the lead Frannekipanstein

Early days @bleedinggrowler
Thanks!

YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet · 29/10/2019 14:52

hmmm the poll seems to be working our end - it might be taking its time updating the votes but we'll keep an eye on it.

abatculledjohn · 29/10/2019 17:43

I might just have to change to abatculledMNHQ for the lack of a nomination.

Good luck everyone!

Thanks @FranneKipankinstein but some of us won't be needing it.

Thanks @EyeSpiesArousedSuccubus I'm surprised she's not posting photos of pumpkins with Santas carved into them. I'm just sharpening my teeth, flying up across the border after her pp. Brace yerself lassie.

Then I'm off to join @abatculledjohn to Trick or Trick MNHQ.

abatculledjohn · 29/10/2019 22:45

Bats of a feather...

BlackBatInBloodSucking · 29/10/2019 22:49

...bite together Halloween Wink

EyeSpiesArousedSuccubus · 29/10/2019 22:50

Eeeeeeeeeekkkkkk!!!

Wait a sec, if @BlackBatInBloodSucking finishes off @FranneKipankinstein, that leaves an opening for one of us. Naturally the honour should be bestowed upon BBIBS.

If BBIBS teams up with @abatculledjohn, MNHQ are otherwise, ummm........indisposed, leaving the rest of us to raid the tat cupboard.

Fucking epic. 🦇

BlackBatInBloodSucking · 29/10/2019 23:07

Yes indeedy, that's the true spirit (pun intended) of a Hallowe'en competition: cull the competition and any decision makers you disagree with. We are also available for General Elections Halloween Grin

abatculledjohn · 29/10/2019 23:08

The 12th is already blocked out in my diary.

He did say he'd rather be dead in a ditch. We can help.

EyeSpiesArousedSuccubus · 29/10/2019 23:51

One, two, Bats coming for HQ
Three, four, better lock gin cupboard door
Five, six, you'll need more than a crucifix
Seven, eight, a gruesome fate awaits
Nine, ten, never breathe again

AaaaaawwwwwwooooooooOoooooOOoooooOoooo!

FranneKipankinstein · 30/10/2019 07:26

I was going to pose with some children but my pumpkin ate them .
I am now embarking on my Succubus tour with lies plastered on the side .

Last time I looked , I was getting hammered by BiWitch . I think I'll just get hammered Gin
Who put these empties in the cupboard ?BB ?

FranneKipankinstein · 30/10/2019 07:38

I am going to give my mates , Borifice and Demonic a call .
They are great at canvassing.

Lovin' the namechange @witchesandhexs, but you're late to the dungeon. MNHQ have already lifted the drawbridge and left us all to rot, minus 13.

@FranneKipankinstein Get arf me bus with that smug sacrilegious halo! Halloween Envy

FranneKipankinstein · 30/10/2019 10:00

Ok , what if I change the S to F ?

FranneKipankinstein · 30/10/2019 10:06

It's the taking part ...
Everyone's a winner...
I am just practicing at loooooooooossssssiiiiiiinnnnggggg , argh .

Some have no commitment to the thread . Some have staying power . What is that smell ?

EyeSpiesArousedSuccubus · 30/10/2019 10:16

As in Fuccubus? I approve.

Succubus is a horny fucker, I wouldn't want it corrupting with halos.

If you would like a ride, however ........ there's a very high risk of death from exhaustion. And bear in mind, it's only available until 11.59pm, October 31st.

I see this is all about who you know.

I wont bother with this in future. Didn't realise this is how it works, stupid me.

I dont even understand why some much more creative and clever nc didnt make the list.

Those with no commitment should be sacrificed for the greater evil. Leaving precious tat to be claimed by the unquestionably loyal scum. Myself included

What feckin' smell? My senses left at the first whiff of death.

SpookilyBadOooooooh · 30/10/2019 10:29

@abatculledjohn. You were robbed my friend m, robbed... as were a few others. 🧙‍♀️I’m mixing their gin with 🐸🐛🕷
