OK, for anyone who wants it... *drum roll*
You Know You're Obsessed with Hallowfest When...
1. You manage to get Kit excited.
2. You think you're all suspecting Johnny's Fan against your common sense.
3. The minute Elegost Eruaphadion dies, you know the killer is a girl.
4. Hallowfest takes over your dreams.
5. You know every last detail about everyone's profile because you're determined to find the murderer.
6. Flower scents suddenly make you thoughtful.
7. You have dreams about it.
8. The rest of the forum dies for a few weeks.
9. Your entire family knows about Hallowfest and who has just died/been accused.
10. You've explained Hallowfest in detail to all of your friends, who now probably think you're insane.
11. You're on the computer 24/7 because you don't want anything to go by unnoticed.
12. You forget to take notes in class because you're debating between Jocelyn and Taur
13. You see anything even distantly related to the clues when walking around your house and think it must be a new clue, before remembering that Hallowfest isn't taking place in real life
14. Your entire social life is encompassed in Hallowfest
15. For some reason, you feel like everything is just a red, freaking, herring.
16. When you spend too much time on reading the same 25 pages over again, which you already read yesterday to find any clues, while you ought to be studying.
17. The Hallowfest ends, you didn't catch the killer, feel like an idiot when the killer is revealed, and still want to be humiliated next year.
18. You laugh whenever Kit says she's not holding the Hallowfest next year.
19. You're worried about being murdered. Not because you're afraid of dying, but because you're afraid that you won't be able to give clues on the killer.
20. You have taken to stalking certain AU members, even outside of the Hallowfest, to try to get clues.
21. Everything, from chocolate to jolly ranchers to deoderant, becomes 'flower scented'.
22. You have weird dreams involving finding a map with a picture of an Edward Cullen faced cat on it.
23. You'll never be able to watch or read Sleepy Hollow again without thinking of that pink fan.
24. You're wondering if you can possibly get away with using your alias after Halloween
25. You plot each morning entrance for your character at the end of the day
26. You're starting to think your alias has more character than you
27. You dislike going out as you'll have missed too much
28. You wish your alias was real because he is such an awesome bloke to be around
29. If you had a horse you would name it Eliza
30. You'll always think of the other, more gentlemany Headless Horseman when you watch Sleepy Hollow
31. You log on each day hoping you haven't been snuffed out as you want your alias to liiiiiiiiiiiiive!
32. You're actually considering writing a history of your character and possibly extending it into a book
33. You think about skipping school so you can talk to the silly Brits that are 8 or so hours ahead.
34. You're thinking up new trivia for NEXT year.
35. When Halloween just pales in comparison to the unmasking of the killer.
36. For the first time in years you see Halloween as a useful event because the Hallowfest preludes it
37. You wonder what you'll do with yourself when members won't be getting murdered everyday
38. Time differences have never been so annoying
39. You haven't done any work in a week.
40. You keep logging on every 10 minutes to make sure you're not dead.
41. You keep refreshing the Clubs page over and over so you'll know the moment when anything new happens.
42. You begin to suspect yourself of murder!
43. You're in agony between the latest accusatory post and Kit's confirmation or denial.
44. You purposely seek out the story of Clue on Wiki so you know what all the Clue banners are about
45. You actually don't care about catching the killer anymore as you're having such a good time and catching the killer means game over
46. You're already anticipating failure and getting your dumb banner ready
-------------
There we go, that's the complete list.

I was ... WHAT??? Me? Innocent me? Why?
Actually, I was going to ask you why you killed me, but then I figured you'd most likely come up with something like... "Ehh.. just because..."
Alta:: I love the list... especially no. 42... I started suspecting myself after I was killed, I was afraid I had commited suicide.  _________________ >>Be the change you wish to see in the world<<

Hooray for the Hallowfest, though I missed a lot of it! SilverRose has very kindly made me my own Hallowfest banner, which is rather apt  _________________

Awesome, awesome list Fragile. ... Because I'm still calling people by their Hallowfester name because I miss it.
All the stress, all the nail-biting, all the 5 hour sleep a night after being awake for 19 hours.

O.o 
-ETA-
On a somewhat-random note, last night I had a dream where I had started a banner claim, and some member who doesn't exist in reality started accusing me because I didn't offer enough Brother Bear banners, and then Kit had to tell that member to calm down...And then the member was all like "I'll make it illegal! And I'll kill your cat!"
And that, I believe, is the ultimate sign of website-obsession.

Glad you like it, Esteleth!  _________________

Speaking of dreams, last week I had a dream with some Hallowfest elements in it....and the Horseman. There was an old mansion, and I remember that there were four ghosts: an young girl, an old creepy lady, a strange guy....and the Horseman, looking exactly like JF's banner. I don't know exactly what happened, but I do remember waking up and thinking, "I'm obsessed! I've finally had a dream, just like that list says!" lol _________________ 
i'm back for a little! i'll see how this visit goes.

Last night I had a dream that I was staying in a dorm here on campus with a bunch of my best friends, and they were all systematically getting killed off as we were given clues no one could understand.
....
It was a lot less fun in the dream than in the Hallowfest. 
I ought to post pictures of my Hallowfest journal pages...
Is anyone else who used an alias experiencing an identity crisis? I'm still trying to get used to being AF again.

I'm having an identity crisis! Aria was so [lamely] interesting. Especially after she went nuts. And I prefer being called Aria to "FM" .
The list is WIN. 
And I've had countless Hallowfest-related dreams... the most memorable one so far being the night that I was agonizing over whether "Autumn" (RA) was the killer... and throughout the dream I was being chased by a mass of people all waving pink fans, and everytime I tried to reason with one I found out that their name was either "Autumn," or "Winter." It was quite the nightmare actually. _________________ <center>

Oh yes, you simply must! I can't wait for <s>you</s> Algernon to experience more awkward ballroom moments.
Lol. AF's list FTW. I especially love #33 about us silly Brits. Like we can help the fact some genius decided to give a far superior time zone.

I'm not experiencing an identity crisis MYSELF (because I didn't change Tar), but I'm experiencing a crisis because I realized that I associated WAY more with people that I didn't really know. And I really got to know them as their Hallowfest identities, so now I'm all confused again.
