Well, okay then, I'm coming!
So, when you say 'come in character', I'm thinking you mean a roleplaying character, but I have been known to be wrong...once or twice... [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] |

Well, last year, most everyone came as themselves. Or at least their username. Here. Take a look at last year's party, or just wait for some one to come who was there.

I could vehemently deny the purple teletubbie associations, but why? If Mr. Fallwell is right, that one gets all the boys. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
That's not to say I will arrive wearing purple (not my colour!). [ April 24, 2003: Message edited by: Lush ]

Awww! This is quite sweet- it would appear that several BDers have invited others as escorts/dates. Awww...

I think I'll even create a new character to show up...Elf, of course...easiest to play. I think laying Menelduliniel and Estelarion to rest for a change would be nice. I can't promise that I'll be "there" all that much, but I can create a date for the new character. I'll be a nice Elf maiden...maybe of higher class for a change, I think. But I will create a character and wander in there at some point!

I should hope to find the time to polish my boots, Willie. And perhaps I'll bring along a bright blue jacket to match... This gives me an idea... Hehehe. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I haven't been out in a while, so I think I will try and attend. Currently, I am looking for a date to the award ceremony. So keep your options open ladies.

Maybe I'll come as Raken and stab people and stuff. Or, I could just come as this new character I made up that isn't real screwed up in the head. Anyways...I think I'll wear this dress thing. It consists of a robe-like thing made of dark blue velvet with a 'v' neck and underneath is a white, sorta sparkly dress. And my hair'll just be really long and dirty-blonde. As it acutally is! But, I will not be me, so, anything my character does at the party should not be held against me...right? Oh, by the way, she will be wearing her dagger under her robe, so be polite... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
Oh, yeah, her name will be Rytien. Like anyone cares. |

In honour of this forthcoming great event Sergeant Saucepan's Barrow Downs Club Band has composed (read plagiarised [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) the following little ditty.
*Ahem* (To the tune of Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite) For the benefit of Mr Wight There will be a party, right On the Downs. The Haunted Spirits will be there. In formal Middle Earthy wear; Elven gowns! With Mods and Admins, food and drink, Awards for the worthy few - a real treat; In this way for its birthday we honour the Downs. The worthy Mr Mithadan Has called us all to come on down To celebrate. The Party-fiends will dance and sing And snack on sautéed Balrog’s wing. Don't be late! Messrs B and M assure us all That this party will be second to none And, of course, Pan of Sauce dances the waltz. *Hobbit jug-band instrumental* The fun begins at dead on nine When Mr M will give a sign To start the rave. And Boromir the Disco King; Will strut and groove his funky thing Do the wave! It being some days in preparation. A splendid time is guaranteed for all On the night Mr Wight is topping the bill.

Here's our initial little get together, a littl pre-bash before Mithadan's party Let's have the party here!
I'm assuming the, uh, mess from this party is the reason we're not having it at the BW's house again? *ahem* (The melting clocks were a real problem.) [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] - Maril

That was a truly classy party! The event that got me into roleplaying! Possibly this time there will be less melting clocks, talking flying trouts and orlie-hating-dagger-wielding wights...
Saucepan man- *clapclapclapclapclap* Nicely done! Hmmm....one thing I am a little confused about; awards?

Yes Maika. A nice ribbon or Scarfe arround your neck is always nice. What is that you say Mithadan? We have to be dressed and any naked person will be removed. Shucks.

Am I right in thinking it won't be as formal as "proper" RPG? I mean could I maybe take a character out of a current RPG without explaining how she got there? And will it have to be Tolkien-perfect on detail?

Anyone want to go with me? That way you can take over my character if you choose to do so whilst I am having nervous breakdowns in real life. Clothing? Eh, okay. If you insist (which you do), I will wear clothing.
So: any takers on being my date?

Oooh, Lovely tune, Sergeant Saucy! Waiting to hear more [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
More pressing than the matter of what Sophia shall wear, is who shall Sophia be? (I've never felt this schizo in my life!) Perhaps Sophia's debut as Sophia...? And aaaw dang, I've got a final at 10 (eastern). Blast *snaps fingers and modifies imagined party* Sophia arrives fashionably late. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] Ai! such fun... *vanishes into a corner, dizzy from spinning*
