<div class="IPBDescription">If you're a nerd that is</div> <a href='http://www.doriangray.ca/mirror/halloween2004' target='_blank'>Make with the clickage.</a>

Since the original site was slashdotted (which is odd for a site hosted by a university, University of Michigan in this case, poor server is probably on fire right now), and the mirror was slashdotted, and the mirror of the mirror was slashdotted (and so on), I re-mirrored it off a semi-slashdotted site. Oh, and yeah my connection is t3h sl0w, but meh, what can you expect for a server on a DSL line.

This is seriously the best costume evar, even better if he was actually inside it. Next year he can go as an iPod Photo.

    Pretty clever, probably the most expensive costume I've seen yet.

    Would have been a lot better if he can actually wear it.

    I wouldn't vote for him in the contest.

    Bah. The Legolas and Aragorn costumes a couple of the guys had at the Raven halloween party were FAR better. They took two weeks and about $450 each to do it and stitched their own leather, embroidered their own clothing, and even (for the legolas guy) fletched their own arrows, complete with real feathers. Freakin' incredible.

    One of our programmers has them on his site, but I don't have the address off-hand. I will find it and have proof.

    The Ash costume another guy had was really good, too...

    Some also include the 2 harry potter costumes, which weren't too bad. No good ones of Ash, though. Only good one had me in the way <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> And I looked hideous!

    Nice costumes, although IMHO Harry Potter was by far the best. He looks <i>perfect.</i>
  • KungFuSquirrelKungFuSquirrel Basher of Muttons Join Date: 2002-01-26 Member: 103Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    yeah, he has the resemblance working for him.

    Kris still looks better than Stuart Townshend did. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Is the guy in the Harry Potter costume genuinely incredibly short or is he just kneeling down in that pic next to Hagrid?


    And the iPod costume was nowhere near as cool as I expected it to be, I have to agree with others who've said it would look better if he was actually in it...and it didn't look like a tablet PC selotaped to the back of a piece of white cardboard....
  • KungFuSquirrelKungFuSquirrel Basher of Muttons Join Date: 2002-01-26 Member: 103Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Mullet: Yes, yes he is.

    As for the height, no, the guy in the hagrid costume actually attacked stacks of small (but thick) wood planks under his feet. This guy is pretty tall anyway, so the extra height probably put him up to about 7 feet. He was a hulking giant. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
