Very good, this campain! Keep up the good work! Anyway...
I was wondering if I could please join? As for a title, how about 'Keeper-of-annoying-and-only-slightly-interesting-hobbies'
How about it?

Hi
More than happy to welcome you to the campaign.
As I have explained to others before you, I'd rather not give out "keeper" and "muse" titles 'cos the Keepers and the Muses would be rather annoyed with me. If you'd rather take a different prefix everythign would be fine (How about "Practitioner"? )

Practitioner was only a suggestion, take a while to think about what you like, I only mentioned the keeper Thing because they really would me if I gave away their titles willy-nilly.
If you want I have a pull-down roster on my space (click on my name above) which shows everyone who signed up and the titles they choose, if you are looking for inspiration.
On another tack, we *still* don't have a Master of Ceromonies
Hope that helps.

Master of Ceremonies also sounds good. I will gladly undertake such an honourable task. I don't really mind what my title is. Actually, I was going to suggest Sanitizer of Long Forgotten Toilets, but MoC sounds much better... I'll bet it's more hygenic aswell!!
'w85 - Master of Ceremonies' it shall be.

Could I join as well please, this is the best idea I have seen for a very long time. I would like to take, Proffessor of Surreal Weaponry as my title.

Flattery gets you everywhere.
And you've already picked a title - how very industrious!
As Professor of Surreal Weaponry, I imagine you will possibly be liasing with these other Thingites who maintain our military strength.

You can receive your Thingite garments, regulation Titanium Spork (It's half-way between a spoon and a fork) and discuss the finer points of weights measures and ballistic properties of tea coasters with him.
