Well, the way we did it before is pretty much what Poet said. Someone leads it, and they take everyone who's participating and match them up with another participant randomly (sometimes we throw in some easily caricatured wild cards like Ras Diga or Peter Little just for the fun of it) and then when the day comes they all post stuff similar to what their character might post. At the end of the day, people send the leader their guesses as to who was whom.I think I'm gonna advertise this on MNN to get people from around the world to participate. They can't do it here, of course, since then people wouldn't know one another and it'd be less fun, but there could be a Babkhan Switching Day, a Crandish Switching Day, etc.

Haha! Mari still believes she controls Elwynn, when in fact she is merely a front for a diabolical cabal of marine cephalopods!

Hesam, why don't you arrange a Babkhan Switching Day for the same date (see my post above) Since everything is but an apparition, having nothing to do with good or bad, acceptance or rejection, one may well burst out in laughter. - Longchenpa

I'm afraid I don't have Messenger on this computer, and I don't want to get it because of Microsoft's tendency to screw up any programs within a fifty-mile radius. Besides, if you don't play, no one's going to get to make long rambling posts about how great the kiwi is.
