TAG OR TREAT! A Halloween Bonus Challenge

Happy Halloween, Pumpkin Patch!
As you all know, Halloween is the season that Pumpkin Hollow was made for! To spread the spooky love, we've come up with a fun little rewards system for players to earn sweet bonuses from our diabolical October event! Here's some rewards you can get!
Hunter's Delight: for tagging into any toplevel with someone you didn't already have premade plans with, you get a protein-rich snack bar that excuses you from groceries for the month of November. (Honor system applies, since this one's hard to prove.)
Spiral Cakes: for tagging into a toplevel that is on page 2 or 3, you can get a swiss roll cake that allows your character to regain an item from their canon. It appears in their house as if it has always been there.
Lonely Lemon Drops: for tagging into a toplevel with 2 tag-ins or less, you get a sour candy that allows you to disappear at a moment's notice, either becoming invisible for 30 minutes or teleporting to the Bluffs.
Dark Licorice: for tagging into the toplevel of a character yours does not already have any CR with, you obtain a ring or pendant in a design of your choice that wards off hostile creatures after dark. (Also honor's system but I kind of already have an idea of most people's CR circles so it's fine)
Eye Candy: for boomeranging any thread to AC length by the end of the weekend, you receive a hard candy shaped like an eye that gives your character a piece of meta-knowledge they did not already know, subject to mod approval. This is the only one where it does not have to be a new thread, but all 10 tags must be obtained during the event period, so prior tags don't count!
Goals must be completed by Monday, Nov 3rd and turned in by the end of the AC period, either via AC or right here! You cannot use previously started threads, and there's no grace periods! All items can be gifted to other characters if desired, but the item goes to the character that earned it initially. How many Tag or Treats can YOU get?
(Please note: please participate in good faith. Don't just tag in to get the prize and then ditch the thread. Players who do this may be subject to having their prize revoked, at mods' discretion!)
Have a great Halloween, everyone! Staaaay spooky! <3

Got one started with Marik too, second tag-in for his Stranger prompt, so that's another Hunter's Delight and Lonely Lemon plus a Dark Licorice. I'll go with a pendant.

I also already grabbed a Hunter's Delight for tagging out to Kris in the safe zone, not sure if having two of those is good for anything except trading with other characters but they sure do have two now; they were the third to tag in so I believe this also qualifies for a second Lonely Lemon Drop.
Three Hunter's Delights I guess! moiré is going to chuck one of those over bastion's back fence I think. Couldn't resist dropping in on Phil. Dark Licorice, Spiral Cake, and one more Lonely Lemon Drop for being the first to get in there.
