"Alter Egos"... Pick your favorites!

[hezeuschrist]

I was thinking of doing Ramsus orginally and run around saying that I'm trash.

I don't think many people would have got it. Seems to me the overwhelming majority of the patrons here never liked the game.

[Phosphor Dot Fossils]

Is it just me, or are some people taking this contest a little too seriously? I mean, I didn't create a handful of alter egos just so I could win prizes; I did it so I could screw around, recklessly post stupid crap, and perhaps even make some people laugh.

Maybe next time - or hell, this time - there should be a responsibility to go with the "office" of being the winner, like having to continue making at least one appearance a week as that character - and to stay in character for that stuff. That would be amusing, and you'd really have to think about what makes that character tick to keep it going. Post-contest appearances would be limited to OT, BZ, and maybe the Pub if the "winner" (really more of an elected [goofball] official at this point!) is qualified to gain access to that area.

I'm not allowed to win anything so I played along just to be annoying.

Btw, between Bratwurst, Dave, and Charlie's avatars, I think my modem just exploded. :P

A heartfelt apology to the remaining modem users of the world. It's only 16k though, compared to 40k and 88k respectively. I think for what it does I get alot of mileage.

Yours and mine too.

[Charlie]

Oh come on, mine isn't that big. Look on the bright side, it was either this one or an animated Survivor gift. I decided to go for shock factor.

"By the way, Charles, that avatar is just wrong...what is that?"

My current avatar is Jun from Big Brother 4. Since entering the BB house in July, she's put on almost 40 lbs because she never stops eatting. She's got a million excuses: She's quiting smoking, she's nervous, etc. But the fact is she ate at least eight Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwichs in a row. And now that she's the head of the household, she'll put on more weight. By winning Head of House this week, she will be presenting an award tonight at the MTV Music Video awards, so keep an eye out for her. She'll be the presenter that eats the enevelope. And then the host.

"I'm not allowed to win anything so I played along just to be annoying."

AH HA! I FIGURED OUT WHO YOU ARE! YOU ARE NONE OTHER THEN SOTHY JR! Whoo, smart I am.

[kainemaxwell]

Charlie now that we know the history behind that avatar, it's even more disturbing.

[Dire 51]

Same here. I'd rather see a contest in which we try to guess who was who, with prizes awarded for the most correct conjectures.

Is it just me, or are some people taking this contest a little too seriously? I mean, I didn't create a handful of alter egos just so I could win prizes; I did it so I could screw around, recklessly post stupid crap, and perhaps even make some people laugh. And I'd like to think that the rest of the posters were also in it primarily for fun. This popularity contest is just a semi-amusing addendum.

I like the "guess who" contest idea myself. No one has been able to guess who I was yet.

And yeah, even though I knew about the prizes and all that, I was just in there to have fun myself, rather than seriously compete. Hell, I'm thinking about doing it on my own forum for a laugh.

[Charlie]

I wasn't trying to win anything either (and it doesn't look like I'm going to). I did have fun with the character though... I'm sure nobody will figure out who I was, even though I *thought* they would. Oh well, I can't wait for the unmasking.

[kainemaxwell]

I had alot of fun with this contest also. I hope the unmasking is before I got into NYC tommorrow too. What's the point standings thus far anyway? And no one guessed right for me yet either.

That's all well and good, but that doesn't explain why two thirds of the objects she's eating in your avatar are phallic.

Doesn't explain why she's eating out a cat though...

[le geek]

Well I had fun the first day, and will be curious if people guess who I was.

I have to vote for
1) Advbat: the Buying and Selling post was hilarious
2) SwitchBOX: Great Idea
3) Amazing Paperboy: good character to work off of - lots of material

Cheers,
Ben
