Check out this guy, doing his thing on the catwalk...


Dang, that is a sweet Freakshow you might saw. HUGE, and a hammer for a hand. Want to be just like him when you grow up? Well, now you can! 'Cuz for reasons Marcian doesn't entirely remember, he still has 2 Comic Con 2008 costume codes! I'm giving these away as prizes for the two people that win the First Ever Black Pebble Strike Force!

Your Task:
  • Go to another site. Any other site.
  • Post something Freakshow and City of Heroes/Villains/Going Rogue related (can be any of the three games).
  • Include a way for people to try out the game. Could be an offer to show people a Free Trial. Could be a link to download it themselves. Really, I don't care.
  • Link me to what you did, along with any notes you want. (Post the link here, so you can share with the class.)

That's it. The two attempts that most gather my favor will be sent these costume codes. And let's not mince words: This thing is entirely by my bias. Here are some tips on how I'll be judging:

Tips for Success!
  • Originality: "hey try this game lulz freakshow" Doesn't cut it. I'm looking for images, videos, poetry, charisma... something that would make someone turn their head and say "Whoa".
  • Success: Did people immediately respond to what you did? What was the reaction?
  • Resonate: If your attempt was funny, did I laugh? If it was emotional, was I moved?
  • Theme: This should represent both The Freakshow and the City of Heroes franchise. Stick to those, but dance in the otherwise open ended definition.

I will judge winners this time next week. (3/9/2011) Now get out there, you rapscallions, and make Marcian proud. There's a costume code at stake! And remember: Now that toggles stay indefinitely, you can keep this costume on during your entire campaign (Exception: When you are the dead).

Good luck!

If you don't update this to read "Go to a another site. Any other site." I promise that I will make an entry, but only in this thread.

And I would have laughed and given you one! You have undermined yourself. Good luck on your entry!

Great idea!While all the videos are mainly available on http://www.cityofheroes.com/media_an...os/videos.html they're not easily linkable or streamable.

So, here's a few YT links for you all.
