We should SO get a mascot!

[The Shade]

Sorry but I don't actually know the dictionary definition for "Mascot".

mascot
noun

- an animal, person, or thing adopted by a group as its representative symbol and supposed to bring good luck

Well, obviously the "Imp" from ZP should be the mascot.

Seconded, I want my damn imps.

 

[Undeed]

The E is a logo, not a mascot. Mascots tend to be people, animals, or some manner of character in general. And not "character" like letter you wise-mouths.

There is a great deal more on this site than ZP, and regardless of it's contributions to the site it should not be the only thing represented by the mascot. There's a great writing staff, as well as several other video series that are well worth watching. Saying we should use the imp because ZP is huge is like saying the US should have stuck with the union flag because it was those thirteen states that declared independence and the rest were just hangers-on. You've almost got a point, but you're also wrong. That being said, I've got nothing.

Aw... looks like someone needs imp hugz!

Mostly I just like looking stuff up on dictionary.com.

I suggest a cynical looking unicorn with rimmed glasses wearing a cape with the e on it. I think that works personally

 

[Deadarm]

I vote for a gigantic Kirby with Bowser powers.

 

[Hexadecimal]

What about an e that's trapped in a Chinese water torture cell, Houdini-style?

Andy: The neurotic cyborg alligator of course.

It's pretty Globvious he's the right choice.

 

[SnowCold]

No, no, no no-no-no-no.

Just... no...

How about a troll as there seem to be a fair few on the forum or the don't feed the troll sign?
Or! we forget about getting a mascot and eat cake yay

It just suddenly occured to me that The Escapist magazine has no mascot character! Yahtzee I'm afraid most certainly does not count (as does his imps), we need something thats... not a character in one of The Escapists's many series, something that defines who we are... what does everyone else think? Do any of you have idea's for a mascot or do you think I'm a daft idiot who should be crucified for such a crap thought?

Well according to that article I read a few weeks ago about us being fat depressed losers, our mascot should be an obese guy with a controller in one hand, cheetos in the other, cuts down his arm and a saucepan on his head.
There we go, perfect!
We'll call him Alphonse.

 

[Zildjin81]

How about the "boring guy" from ZP?

 

[Teufelblitz]

Mascots are corporate shills that amount to nothing more than a company's vainglorious attempt to usurp our associations and force us to ingrain their products into our everyday lives.

With that said, I'm all for the Zero Punctuation® imp.

A Pony

duuh! =D

Yeah. Remember that Pony Jam thing from April Fool's Day? We could rework that nicely. Or just the Pony Badge.
