Wondering whether anyone had done anything geekish for Halloween, I decided to create this thread. What geeky thing have you done for Halloween?

I may not be in a Lain outfit as I once tried to do, but this year I am the proud owner of one Cyberman pumpkin. I had contemplated carving it into the shape of my current CPU case, but decided that that would take too long, so, instead, partially in celebration of the upcoming November DW special and the 80's-anime styled animated version in progress at YouTube, I carved a Cyberman's face. Photographs will be uploaded to my profile tomorrow.

So; how about you?

I made a computer program that displayed a pumpkin and played spooky noises very loud, then projected onto my window. You should have seen the looks on peoples faces!

I dressed up as Ardeth Bey from The Mummy, face markings and all. Put together a Halloween themed playlist and streamed it through the laptop. Dunno how geeky that is, but it was fun.

Thats cool =) I didnt carve pumpkins this year.

I DID Dress up as a kind of steam punk style guy tho. I went trick or treating with my girlfriend and it was awesome. I had many people ask how old i was (im a junior in HS) and then went to two parties after. Both parties weren't costume parties so i stood out fairly well with my victorian dressed vampire girlfriend next to me. It was lots of fun ^.^
