I know it's a bit after Christmas, but Avi and Kj mentioned this a while ago, like…a LONG time ago, and it's still stuck in my mind. We could actively RP in a populated city doing A Christmas Carol in say, so that others could watch.

If interested, I found a site with a watered down script in terms of characters and spoken word, so it wouldn't take quite as long. The narration is also good in that it describes the scene, so that we wouldn't want/need to change areas and lose any following we might have. Take a look at it and let me know!

Also, there are a few parts that are small and only appear in one or two scenes, so we could easily double up on parts, and just change equipment to designate the roles that we're playing. Take a look at this script and let me know what you think!

as pretty much everyone suggested I should, I candidate for Scrooge!
To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
