Nah...not what you're thinking, and clean that mind of yours.

If Sony/Bungie/Valve whoever asked you to be their "Booth Babe" for the day at a conference, would you accept?

Background : The Conference is going to hold 30,000 people and is within 50 miles of your home town. Food is provided, as is the quite skimpy costume. You have to make your own way there, no travel expenses, and you'll be paid double whatever minimum wage is to you.

There are two heavies around to fend off unwanted attention, but you've got a reasonable idea you'll be drooled at and asked really stupid questions.

Would you do it?

If I had the body for it? Sure. Would probably be fun. The two heavies are there if someone gets too icky, what's the harm?

Edit: Can I request that if it's a Valve booth that one of the heavies is actually dressed and kitted out like the Heavy from TF2? (Sasha (model?) optional but preferred.

I think the fact that I am a heavy myself is enough to fend off all attention, unwanted or not.

Hell yeah! Though if I had to wear a regular booth babe outfit I think most people would be running away from me.

Really fast.

EDIT: I like your new pic Root.

Ta :)

As for me...I probably would do it, but I'd have to choose which stand. And probably a little more exercise before I can properly flex. ;)

If i had the body for it of course. I'm a slut for money.

My fat ass wouldn't last 10 minutes.

Fuck yeah! Easy money.

I'm a Dude, but I'd do it if:

Amnestic:

If I can choose the costume

<<<<

That's like asking if I want to be a cheerleader for a day.

ElArabDeMagnifico:

Yes, yes it is. But would you?

I would do it for free, but only if I got some swag.

I'm a rather lanky, hairy dude, though, so doubtful anyone would want me. If there was a ever a game with a character like that though, count me in.

I think Half-Life counts...or Devil May Cry...

Hell no.

I'll whip off my shirt and jiggle my pasty white Moobs for all the nerds, sure!

I'd empty that conferance hall so fast...

Fuck, I'd do it for free.

My elephant pouch stands ready for duty.

The_root_of_all_evil:
Nah...not what you're thinking, and clean that mind of yours.

What am I thinking?

Anyway, I'd do it for sure so long as a I got some kind of payment. If I could keep the t-shirt, that would be enough for me.
Oh wait, I'm role-playing a girl? Same answer, I'd still be me.

Sure I would! But I'm not going to be held responsible for the downturn in patronage to that booth. Plus I'd have something to talk to the other booth babes about ;-)

ummm If I had the body I could probably be that dude from Painkiller

they'd have to pay me a hell of alot more than double minimum wage: i'm worth billions, baby

a bit more than double minimum wage, cause minimum wage here is shit. maybe triple. ya triple, and I'd be ok with one "guard". Although, I have no way of actually getting to a con, so the reality of me doing it is out.

If they don't think having me as a "booth babe" would actually damage their sales, I'd be all for it.

no, double minimum wage is nothing

You basically described a day in my life.

Smiling for 8 hours straight, photo sessions that last for 30 minutes, drafty costumes? No thank you.

Sure why not i got nothing to hide

Were I a woman with a decent body, yeah sure. Minimum wage out here's isn't too bad, so I'd be pulling $16.14 an hour to be eyecandy.
As is, I'd have to play Heavy Gunner for the Valve booth.

I picked the third option. You see, I've got the body for it, and the sales skills, but I'm not so big on losing my dignity. Pretty fond of it really.

Dignity is so overrated. BUT: if you're that determined to continue holding onto it, might I suggest becmming undead rather then simply dying from old age? Join us, we get Cheerios.

I doubt someone as radical as I would make it into old age, but I appreciate the offer. Nothing like the persistent smell of rotting flesh and uncontrollable hunger to truly appreciate Cheerios.

Really though, I would totally do this. It's getting paid to talk to people, which is pretty much ideal. As long as the costume isn't ghastly.

I'd probably do it, but I'll be damned to wear some of the outfits they're wearing over there. I'm not going to dress up as a schoolgirl nor some cyborg.. And I might not make it; I don't have D or E cups.. >.>

"So do I get to pick a costume?"
"No sorry, we do."
"Well, what is it?"
"It's ghastly."
"Damn."

I'd probably do it, if I could choose as well. I mean who wouldn't want to dress as the Freeman and get paid for it?!

EDIT:

If the poll is assuming I'm female and also assuming that I wear a skimmpy Sailor Moon dress, most likely no.
