- Make an automatic system to get the suffix

It is possible by:
- Making a GUI and using placeholders + javascript (DeluxeMenus)

If the player has 31 bags on the trick-or-treat, he get the suffix in question

This isn't as easy as just writing a GUI (also, why would we use JavaScript for that?), since the plugin would need to sync player data across the three servers. This isn't as easy to do as just checking if the player has all pumpkins, a system like this might be implemented next year though.

Placeholder java script included on PlaceholderAPI

Well, the placeholders depends on the plugin in question. Maybe you can add a perm in the proxy when you get 31 pumpkins so you can claim your tag on every servers?

You don't need to sync player data, just make it:

In one server if you get the pumpkins the permission system (BungeeCord) will give you a permission to claim your tag, then the tag will be a prefix from the permission plugin made for bungee

You don't seem to have got my point; the plugin could easily give you the suffix and the permission for it but the problem is that you need the all pumpkins on all three servers to unlock it. The plugin is not currently able to check if the player got the pumpkins on the other servers too, so if e.g. a player claims all pumpkins on hub, the plugin on hub can't check if they claimed the pumpkins on casual and siege too.
To be able to do that, the plugin would need to sync player data across all of the servers it's running on.

Well you can just put the pumpkins in the lobby and remove them outside then sync the tag system with the other servers...

You could remove the pumpkins on both Casual and Siege you're right, but then that takes the amount down from 93 to 31, and yes we could add another 62 on the hub but thats excessive for a map of that size.

The reason we have them on all 3 servers is to encourage players to explore the other spawn areas. By removing the pumpkins everywhere except the hub it takes away a lot of the fun and people wouldn't explore the freshly made areas as thoroughly.

As @Gamer153 has said, we will look into adding some automation functionality for next year as it lessens our workload, but for this year it won't be possible as the event has already begun.
