Great Characters in ARG History
Another "Top However-Many" List

To borrow from Andrhia's destined-to-be-a-classic Great Moments in ARG History thread, I thought it might be fitting to start a Great Characters in ARG History list.

One of my top votes?

Tucker Darby's Mom ... never has a protagonist been so nagged to get-a-job-and-find-a-nice-girl when the fate of the world was in his hands.

I'd like to put in a vote for Mr. Alan Johnson, Spoocheeeee extraordinaire. Very conflicted, complicated, conniving.

There have been many, but none have touched my heart as much as Sarah Wyatt in CTW2.

Geez guys, I'm all choked up. Smile Thanks.

My vote's for Tucker Darby, although his mom was no slouch, either.

Tucker was the main character in "Who Is Benjamin Stove". I like to add him to my list above as a fave, as well as any character written by Jim Gunshanan.

Ditto. I am such a Jim Gunshanan fan girl. Very Happy

I would have to go with Tucker Darby as well as Debunkette from Who is Benjamin Stove (who wouldn't like a loveable, family-heirloom giver-awayer, painting collecting, collections agent and a kick-ass, take-names skeptic [respectively]).

Also to add to the list would be Kevin "GetMEout" Cosby from bseeingu / EE (I think it's legal to add him since he's no longer with us).

Many thanks to Jim, Brooke, and Jackie! Very Happy

Aww, thanks, you made my day! Cool

And on a completely unrelated note, addie, enaxor, rowan and sid: those checks were deposited in your accounts before 2pm today, so they should clear by tomorrow.
