Another pumpkin newbie

I am growing some Spookie pumpkins. One vine became damaged and now is withered and appears dead. It has one pumpkin a little larger than a softball, it is about half orange and half green still. Should I just leave it on the dead vine until it is completely orange or cut it and leave it in the sun, or something else?

Another vine isn't dying but isn't producing flowers either, its one pumpkin is about 95% orange. Should I leave that pumpkin on the vine after it is completely orange or pick it? When can I stop watering it? Frost is not an issue here in my SoCal garden but water is.
