Emissary of the Mad King - Can't count?

First I’d like to say what an amazing job you guys did on this whole halloween thing. This tends to be my favorite holiday, and this is the most fun I’ve had in any in-game holiday event to date.

However, I just want to voice my extreme displeasure to hear that you aren’t counting pumpkin carving or the clock tower towards this meta, when they are both halloween achievements, and the meta does not specify that they do not count (and you cannot complete the one that requires entering the dungeon because you closed the dungeon off before the event ended). While pumpkin carving rewards its own title, and clock tower is rewarding because of the challenge, they are both time-consuming, and in the case of clock tower, difficult to complete. They should count. The fact that they aren’t just doesn’t make sense to me, and it puts a real sour note on the end of an otherwise very enjoyable event.

Edit: I don’t mean to beat a dead horse but I do have another reason why I feel the other two should count towards the meta:

Keep in mind that the recipes stay around, while the Ascent to Madness instance will be gone after the 31st until at least next year.

The dungeon was not available on the 31st to enter. I’m not sure if this was intended and was just a misunderstanding, or if there was a bug where it closed off early, but if the latter I definitely think the others should count towards the meta.
