Second Annual Masquerade Ball Thread!

Post by Tawmis » Thu Oct 07, 2010 11:41 am

Welcome, my children... welcome to the darkness of night... Welcome to the Month of Halloween... Don your mask... find a secret persona... and come, come my children and have fun at the ...

Second Annual Masquerade Ball Thread!

For the new folks, the idea behind the Masquerade Ball Thread is to create a new persona on the forum, with a new avatar and everything (the persona can go as far as having a totally different trait than you... maybe the persona is a horrible speller... types in all caps... doesn't use any form of punctuation... "talks" with some kind of southern accent... it's entirely up to you!) By the time Halloween Day arrives, everyone takes a guess at who everyone is! You only post as that persona IN THIS THREAD or the Second Annual Halloween Alphabet Clue Game Thread - outside these two threads, please use your NORMAL USERNAME!

Collector and I can see everyone's IP address, so we can't guess who is who when the Ball ends... but we may be in this thread disguised as someone else!

When you sign up for the new persona be sure to add an "*" to the beginning of the account name... (so for example, if you were going to use the user name of "JungleJim" you'd sign up with *JungleJim. This shows that the account is a "masked" account. If you need an email address to use, simply use the USERNAME @TAWMIS.com (which is my own personal site - use the username that you're using on the forum for the Halloween Ball), so that way you don't actually have to sign up for an email account on Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, etc., and Collector or I will auto-approve the account on SHP.

(Thank you Jules for reminding me!) This thread is "Stickied" until the Ball ends.

Yay the Masquerade Ball! :D

I'll have to think carefully about my Halloween persona.

Don't forget to add "*" to the beginning of the user name. Tawm, you can edit your first post to include this.

So I assume these 'fake users' are removed after the ball is sufficiently over? (seems logical)

Thank you, although in the future I prefer to be addressed as "Mr. Wolfe" if the convention is not too onerous, Madam.
