2024 Halloween Avatar Contest: SB118 Ops check-in

[Jo Marshall]

This thread is for each member of the crew to check in with their new avatar on their profile.

For a check-in to count, each crew member must include a funny quote, quip, or greeting (i.e.- "Trick or treat!") that matches the character or theme.

The more people you have checked-in, the higher your overall score!

Please read these instructions very carefully – missing any step may disqualify your crew!

• Participants must be checked-in to this thread by Monday, October 28th at 11:59pm Pacific Time.
• Avatars must remain in their costumed forms until at least Thursday, October 31 at 11:59pm Pacific Time.
• Do not post anything except check-ins here – no other discussion or joking around, please!
• Players can only check in ONCE per contest.
  • If you're playing two characters on two different ships, you have to decide which ship you want to participate with.
  • Your participation will not count against your second ship. We'll discount the other ship's roster to account for your participation on this ship.
• If you have crew members who cannot access the forum due to accessibility issues, the CO must notify FltAdml. Wolf. 

The second post in this thread must contain the following: 

1. A clear and direct announcement of the ship's theme.
2. Confirmation that your crew followed the "Halloween Avatar Contest avatars uploading process" exactly – use the "Section 3. Check your work" checklist to ensure you've not violated any rules. 

Here's an example:

"Have I Gone Mad?" No I am just stuck in a Star Trek episode involving an alternate timeline where I'm the Mad Hatter

"Who's to say what is "proper"? What if it was agreed that "proper" was wearing a codfish on your head? Would you wear it?"

"It is illogical to assume that I had stolen the Queen's tarts..."

 The time has come,' the Walrus said,
      To talk of many things:
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —
      Of cabbages — and kings —
And why the sea is boiling hot —
      And whether targs have wings.

Twinkle, Twinkle little bat

How I wonder where you're at

All above the world you fly

Like a tea tray in the sky....

Correct the quote.

One path leads to glory, the other to dishonor. Choose wisely, warrior!

“You might just as well say,” added the March Hare, “that ‘I like what I get’ is the same thing as ‘I get what I like’!”
