room-to-room?

[nibot]

Does anyone have any good stories from room-to-room parties? (Particularly in the co-ops, but in general too.) Any good themes? I remember when Kenny (easwaran) and Alex (probablevacancy) had Sweden and when they had the Weather Channel. I remember something about a confessional in Rebekah's room. Share your room-to-room stories and themes. Also, when was the Kingman room-to-room when Ping (zestyping) inverted his room?

Kingman recently had a room full of hospital supplies and costumes. Two people would come in at a time and be assigned the role of nurse or patient, and then get to roleplay for a while.

I've done a couple:

* BART station: made a full-size bart train mockup, ticket gates, and BART sounds playing in the background. I was a bum in a pile of trash in the corner and I served cheap wine out of a paper bag. Liz was in full costume as a driver leaning out of the front window. We put all sorts of official-looking signage around the house directing people to Kingman Station.

* Sensory overload room: We had ten speakers playing different songs or sound effects, no lights, and a maze of sheets hanging from the ceiling. The closet was full of jungle noises in surround-sound.

* Sideways room, with Ping: http://zestyping.livejournal.com/97476.html

* Ravendell, a rave in Rivendell: Strobe light, foliage, glow sticks, elf costumes, and a techno remix of the LOTR theme (http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~dtw/Music/Ravendell.mp3) I made.

* And the old classic, same-sex body shots on a pirate ship.
