You know you've read too much FFF when you see people playing with a long pumpkin stem and think of something completely different than Tetris.............
Unless, of course, you're the dude who built a playable version of Tetris into a pumpkin. Then your jack-o'lantern is fucking incredible. Everybody else, though, yeah, sorry, your jack-o'lantern sucks shit. (Via The Mary Sue)

It looks like someone's grade school science fair project on electronics that was retrofitted into a pumpkin.
meh
And what if you're the guy who combined a watermelon and a pumpkin to stick Krang in one?

@DrAbraxas I imagine we'd need to change the display to full color LEDs. Of course each one will need to be controlled by PWM. Maybe multiplex the signal; use a shift register maybe one of the 74HC595's.. Now we can take a PIC, we will be a little narrowed down to 8 bit porn until we get more display, then.............................WHAT AM I DOING. DAMN IT Dr. Abraxas! How dare you mix my love of electronics and naked women!

You know, I took a lot of crap from my wife just making my alien tripod pumpkins and all they did was flash LEDs in certain orders, and most of that was scavenged from old computer cases and a arduino. She'd murder me for doing this.
It doesn't look like his LED front is multiplexed, so I assume he used some shift registers and a PIC. I was also wondering the main board looks professional while the two others looked like the Radio shack solder boards so I wonder if the main processor is salvaged from something.
Would love to see the schematics on this. I love it.
