[PUZZLE] Something strange in the Login box Saw this as I was viewing my profile page. It's a different graphic than the normal login button . The link didn't change, though.

I saw that earlier today, too, and wondered if it was just me!

So, is it Loot or Tool? Let the speculation begin!

Someone in IRC said it looked like a hangman graphic.
Which it kinda does.

Yeh, that was me. Saw LooT at first, but it started to look more and more like a game of hangman. *shrug* Tried looking for a profile called 'thehangman' but got nothing. Most definatly a kloo though?

It also persists (thanks, ThaJinx) when you go to the Avatar Select page.

Maybe that has something to do with whether or not you're considered "dead" in the game? What was your death date?

I'm pretty sure it's either looT or Tool.
I set my death date to 12/31/2005 when I registered, trying to trick the game into allowing me to be "alive", but it didn't work ... it still set my date of death to my registration date ...

I set my death date to June 29th.
I don't see that but it looks like a similar font to the "Fine" icon you see in the "spice up the internet" link that you get in "wtf616" profile.

Ya know, I've searched and didn't find anything.
Is there any real reason one would want to be dead in this game?

Cuz it's nifty? Seriously - where else can you play when you're dead?

Well, I see other players where date of death and mortography is n/a, so I guess you don't have to be.
But in my case, I was killed during Art of the H3ist. So... Yeah.

I went for my most recent birthday - smothered in my birthday cake by a mystery man.

you're the only non-character player with an actual death date!
