    I'm in. This sounds awesome. I'm preregistered for all three days, but I dunno if I'm staying down in Bellevue or commuting from my place in Mill Creek every day, so what's the rule on no-shows and the like?

    Anyways, I'm IN. Pics sent.

    I had an idea. It's probably too late to make a change like this, but I thought it was a neat idea and wanted to get it out there.

    Instead of the watch thing with the picture, each person gets a button. This button has the PAXsassins logo or whatever along with the wearer's name. On the back of the button, the part you can't see, is a sticker of the person's target. The button has to be worn in an easily accessible location. Everyone also gets a red Sharpie marker. When you make the kill, you make a mark on the button with the Sharpie. Then, you take the person's button. This both tells you your next target, and gives assassins a token of each kill.

    Just an idea I thought was kind of neat.

    Plus the watch actually has a background here at penny arcade as well as is the stealing of the watch.

    ...and fix SmallLady's screen name. Unless Samllady really is someone else...

    Also curious... some of those pictures are very large, yet my modestly sized one got severely shrunk. Perhaps my stealth ninja abilities are responsible... or, more simply, I may not have sent the larger one to LogicLB via email. :oops:

    Sorry, just thought wearing a button would look a little less retarded than taping an 8 1/2 x 11 inch sheet of paper to my back.

    Does it matter? No matter where I put it, a paper cut-out watch is going to be weird-looking and awkward.

    But whatever. You're all determined to do it this way, so never mind.

    You can tape it to your back if you so desire, but as you mentioned, it looks dumb that way. Personally I'd put it on my wrist (were I playing).

    Given that we have all of six fucking days until the deadline, I'm not going to accept any more "I'm In"s without accompanying pics.


    Get your damn pics in, or you don't play!


    So far, I have pics for:

    Chillpenguin
    CombatWombat
    DJBreslin
    Drakenul
    Element Brian
    Mjstrwy
    Nephirij
    SmallLady
    Yogsothoth

    This means, if your name isn't on the list above by August 1st, you're not gonna get a dossier (unless you beg/plead, etc. and it's the 2nd and you have your pic ready.)

    The page gets updated as soon as LogicLB gets back from wherever he went.
