Awesome! ;D I figured you might have heard of it. And I agree! A lot of the circus members in the movie were actually quite interesting, and I liked how the creator actually got real circus "freaks" to be in the movie. I particularly liked Schlitzie. He was so adorable.

gwendolen: I assume you mean like if all our characters had computers ect? IDK that wouldn't really work since how would the acts (who aren't allowed to speak to the public except a handful of times) get their hands on a computer. Also if they DID get their hands on a computer they'd be raising awarness about what goes on at the Circus and not chatting online.

He was so adorable. There was actually a "gritty reboot" of the movie made in 2003 I think using actual side show acts. It wasn't good though because the acting was bad, dialog awful, and it just didn't seem to humanize the sideshow workers the way the original did.

I think what she means is to have a chat feature, like some proboards have, for members to use. I've tried those before, and they're a bit difficult to work with(in my own experience anyway) but maybe it would be useful around here.

I've tried those before, and they're a bit difficult to work with(in my own experience anyway) but maybe it would be useful around here. Ok I know what you mean now. Personally I HATE the chat feature on Proboards. It's fourm if you want to chat go to a chatroom. Also I really really don't want people joining just to use the chatroom, I've seen that happen and I don't like it. So no I don't think we'll be getting a chatroom any time soon. Especially since we have only a handful of active members. If you want an OOC board for the RP (like for thread discussion) I'll start one up in each board. Alright? And if anyone wants to talk about thread ideas/character plans ect. They're there in the RPG discussion.

Well I was thinking like an official chat room for the rp on AIM or something, not necesarily on the board

what about making a Wiki page like we did with DWOW or a page on TVtropes?

I like the TV tropes idea. Simply because that could bring in more people here, only I do not have a Tvtropes account nor do I think I will get one simply because the last few times I've been on that site my computer got attacked by viruses.

The only problem with making a TV tropes page is the risk of the site getting reported. Cuz, let's be honest, there are a few things here that probably are kosher with the TOS. ^^;
As for the chatroom, there's always sites like Tinychat, which as far as I know is relatively safe. But, if people are uncomfortable with the idea, then that's understandable as well.
