SOAP
So, are we role-players or what? Maybe we can't have a real-life celebration, but we can sure role-play a virtual one. I propose SOAP... it's modular format is perfect for a thread game, and it only costs $2.95 for the PDF (so it's easy for everyone to play, even if they don't already have it).
So, make yourself as a SOAP character and let the mayhem begin! :)

(edit) I know Nathan said make yourself as a SOAP character but I feel that way lies madness. And possibly neurosis.

Where: Maury's Dressing Room
What: Maury Winkle sits in his chair amidst an impenetrable fog of cigarrete smoke. He glances at his Rolex as he whispers into a cellphone.

This thread must be like the guy that spills his beer on everybody and is generally obnoxious in a pitiful way. Nobody wants to talk to that guy. Don't be that guy.
