I'd like to play! But I'm still trying to pick out a costume. I figure most posters from the Giraffe Boards are getting tired of Godzilla. I suppose I could tempt fate and pick Special Ed as my costume, but I don't want to lose. I..I What No, I mean.. Where's the sciencefail icon? I have no comeback.

*Adds Dirx to the list.*
Please select a costume so we can chortle over how utterly inappropriate it is. Or isn't.
Captain Pinkies, the same goes for you. I don't think we'll allow you to be a bartender though.

If you don't choose a costume in a timely fashion, we'll have to choose one for you. And you don't want us to do that.

Like Groucho Marx, I'm not sure I'd want to play in a Mafia game desperate enough to accept me, but if you get that desperate ...
Is it a rule the costume character has to be fictional? If not, can I come as Dr. Strangelove ?

If you want to come as Dr Strangelove, that's fine.

I don't know why, but I suddenly remembered the 1st of April when Idle switched our identities and I found myself to be MHaye and vice versa Now I kind of wish I'd pick that for a costume to this party I've always wanted to go to a costume party along with a friend, dressed in normal clothes, and tell everyone that we are the other person, and we dressed up as each other...but none of my friends would ever go along with it... I need cooler friends

Ok, I'll go with Lt. Columbo as my costume.
Unless I change my mind. Am I able to change my mind?

Dr. Strangelove isn't a fictional character? It was intended to be slightly amusing re: Dr. Edward Teller. Don't worry. Nobody else laughs at my jokes either. Teller was widely misunderstood. (But then again, maybe so was Strangelove! ;D ) vote septimus for being from an alternate universe. BTW can I visit sometime? Do I need a passport? I need to get off this planet for awhile. One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small And the ones that mother gives you Don't do anything at all Go ask Alice When she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits And you know you're going to fall Tell 'em a hookah smoking caterpillar Has given you the call Call Alice When she was just small
When the men on the chessboard Get up and tell you where to go And you've just had some kind of mushroom And your mind is moving slow Go ask Alice I think she'll know
When logic and proportion Have fallen sloppy dead And the White Knight is talking backwards And the Red Queen's "off with her head!" Remember what the dormouse said; "Feed your head, Feed your head"

And the Red Queen's "off with her head!"
FTR, it really bugs me when the Red Queen and the Queen of Hearts are conflated. They are two distinct personalities in the Wonderland books. The Red Queen was not evil at all. And the Queen of Hearts really wasn't either. Just a bit crazy. But the Queen of Hearts was the one into chopping people's heads off. (Granted, "Red Queen" works much better from the standpoint of rhythm.)

We're half full. The confusion attendant on Total Lost turning up as me, when I'm helping to mod the game, would be brain-straining. Especially if she changes her avvy (remembering she gave me this one in the first place...) I like Galadriel (especially the version I linked to. There are others, if you're interested.) I liked the one you linked too (And you remembered I found the cute tea-avatar - yeah!!!)

I HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS.
Just so you all know. But I'll probably be dead in one of my three allotted games by the time this one gets anywhere important. Probably.
I want to be Iskaral Pust from the Malazan books.
