I was thinking that, while he's been the developer with the most facetime in the History of MxO, and aside from penning all the story material and more after Mr. Chadwick abandoned us, Mr. Chamberlain doesn't have a "signature" in the game. The other developers will always have their avatars and such to mess around in the virtual world, but how will Rarebit be remembered? Through an update which holds a bunch of NPC masks? Please.

I propose a randomly placed billboard. I got the idea when I googled my name and rediscovered this on a French MxO fansite:

It's my entry from the long-dead billboard contest held back in I have no idea. All I remember is that I got a free shirt and a copy of the game out of it, and I think a free 30-day subscription card too. I still have that shirt.

My idea is probably foolishly vain. I'm sure that Rarebit has some elaborate server-crashing plan for his last day for us to remember him by, but I just thought... how about one from the fans?

I actually really like this idea.  The scarce "Welsh Rarebit" signs really are more silly than meaningful.  Looking at your sign, it appears that the dimensions are 2:1.  I'd say that 1500:750 is hefty enough, hmm  Perhaps some sort of collaberation is in order.


If you're proposing a contest, however, I'd say it's only fitting for Rarebit to pick the winner.  I hope this is plausible.

Indeed, that was want I was thinking.

As for the resolution... believe it or not, that image is at the resolution the original contest called for. Perhaps when Walrus and Rarebit wake up tomorrow they could figure out the specifics (or they can sit back and laugh).

I like this idea. Mr Walrus, make it so.

I'm in. Heck, I didn't come back for nothing.

Good Idea. Also my idea for an item to be distributed to all subbed players to mark the end of an era.

But a good old poster in the city would be cool!

Well, whether or not this becomes a reality, here're two (read: one) to get the ball rolling.
