Oh yeah. I only need to wear in green to look like Luigi. LOL.
And where do you get the games? Nintedos' sponsorship?

Ace jon: If you send in a picture of you dressed as Ivy from Soul Caliber, I will deny it.

Anyone else is okay.

Well why can't wii choose games for both systems as this makes things arkward

By kawaiipikachu, # 17. September 2007, 23:27:33

avatar
It isn't awkward. Awkward would be finding out you just married your cousin. This just makes you think a little bit more. Not by much though.

Honestly, the games are easier to purchase if they're all on the same system. Sorry for the inconvenience. :frown:

By lutherjw, # 18. September 2007, 00:20:42

luther has the EXACT idea. Also OPERA is supplying the games. :wink:

By Ronney13, # 18. September 2007, 03:10:37

Question: Can the costume be placed on somebody other than our own person?

By hierSmitty, # 18. September 2007, 03:42:53

Ronney13: If you want to enter the contest that would be ok if pirates of the caribian was on a nintendo system. Because he is NOT in Brawl.

By CaptainSeagull, # 18. September 2007, 03:51:27

avatar
hier smitty: Private message me your plan in detail.

By CaptainSeagull, # 18. September 2007, 03:53:41

avatar
i think there was a pirates of the carribean for GBA, and DS... or... one of them..

By DotEd, # 18. September 2007, 05:08:58

also, as a fun bonus, I think N+ Members should judge the N+ Moderators!

By DotEd, # 18. September 2007, 05:09:53

avatar
What do you say readers? Wanna judge OUR costumes this year also?

By CaptainSeagull, # 18. September 2007, 05:58:29

avatar
Augh... I asked the question to Seagull and now my very secret idea is Example 3! I have to change my planz.

By Ace Jon, # 18. September 2007, 08:17:36

avatar
hahaha, you didn't ask WHAT item you could be, all you asked was if it was limited to in game items. Sorry for the horrible coincidence.

By CaptainSeagull, # 18. September 2007, 13:02:26

Can my sisters participate even though they do not have a My Opera account? Can I put her pics in my album?

By yeeliberto, # 19. September 2007, 12:27:26

avatar
yeeliberto: send me a private message and we will discuss in more detail what your plan is. Then I will let you know. but it doesn't sound like there should be a problem with that :wink:

By CaptainSeagull, # 19. September 2007, 14:53:01

avatar
Just as long as a relative has a MyOpera account, I'd say you're good.

By G-off, # 19. September 2007, 14:57:08

Vinhnguyenhuu: I would like to answer your question but I sadly don't know vietnamese and can't find a translator. Could you translate this into english for me?

By CaptainSeagull, # 24. September 2007, 04:27:36

avatar
Jon, example 3 is all over the web now and hardly original anymore. Being a game case however... :devil:

By Furie, # 24. September 2007, 09:54:13

hey as long as their all over our group album, i'll be happy. it'd be nice to be able to have people go "holy crap those enplussers made better verions of all those costumes i saws all overs the internets" than to have them say "holy crap those enplussers avoided certain popular costumes and because of that there are only 2 entires"

know what im sayin?

i mean, ive got 3 wii remotes, some people have 4... there's no reason only one person should be a remote.

Get the family involved!

and a dog dressed as a nunchuk! holy crap awesome idea get.

By DotEd, # 24. September 2007, 16:09:40

"holy crap those enplussers made better verions of all those costumes i saws all overs the internets"

Now that's a new way of looking at it. :yes:

By Furie, # 24. September 2007, 17:36:33

Hmm. I've just had what could be a fantastic costume... I just need paint, grey trousers and...

By Ace Jon, # 16. October 2007, 21:24:31

Ace John, you have ONE WEEK! well one week starting tomorrow. I suggest getting on it asap!

By CaptainSeagull, # 16. October 2007, 23:05:21

avatar
What the heck!? I am rediculous! one have TWO weeks left!

By CaptainSeagull, # 17. October 2007, 16:49:29

avatar
Yeah, there are 2 weeks. And half-term starts tomorrow for me. And I know I want at least one Wii game that has come out... although I'd doubt I could find 3 quality titles I don't already have.

BTW, were you intoxicated? Just judging by "I am rediculous! one have TWO weeks left!" - it makes little sense. :smile:
