By now, most should know how Party is played on here. There’s been many topics already. However, if one still doesn’t know or isn’t sure…check out one of the other topics.  
Anyway, this one is the last one I’m hosting. And it’s a free-for-all. I’m out of ideas for quirks…so rather than have very simple ones or very complex ones, I’ve decided to just let you all **pick your own**.

That’s right. You’ll all, if you want to play in this one, sign up in this topic and then PM me with a quirk you wish to have and show in all of your posts in the game.

Keep in mind, though, you might not get it. There still has to be guessers/hosts, of course, and they will be chosen randomly…but usually that’s only two or three of you.

So there you have it. Let your own creativity come out in this one. Sign up if you want and PM me with whatever quirk or disorder you wish. 🙂 Can be anything just as long as it’s not something so hard or complex that nobody would ever get it.

I’ll let the sign up go on for the rest of today and all day tomorrow…then, on Wednesday, I’ll start it.

I’m in – as a guest, pls., since I’ve been a host (and a moderator).

I have a couple of unused quirks from the last game – let me decide which one I want to use, I’ll PM you tomorrow.

I’ve been a host twice, and a mod once. I think I’ve earned the right to be a Guest for once. I’d rather be assigned a quirk, though. If you’d rather me come up with one, I’ll do it, but if you can spare one quirk of your own (or if anyone else wants to come up with one for me), I’d be a happy Dio.

Since I made you host the second time, it’s the least I can do.

Damn, **Rysto** , I might have to take you up on that offer. I’m having mad trouble thinking up one of my own.

It’s all well and good to say you want to be a guest but if everyone does that, there won’t be any Hosts in the game and thus, the game can’t be run. 😛

So here’s hoping not everyone does that. Heh.

But yeah, some exceptions (like **Dio** ) would have been considered.

Okay, I’ve given away both “extras” I had, so if you’re looking for quirk help, look elsewhere.
