Best and worst
Skimpiest outfit - Rikku from Final Fantasy X

Aren’t you a bit cold? Yes.
How long did it take to make your costume? About two weeks.
Are you the only Rikku here today? I think so! Everyone’s put so much effort into their costumes, it’s great!
Sexiest lady - Ulala, Space Channel Five

Most rubbish outfit - Bloke dressed as a Sim
Hello. Are you lost? No. I’m Tommy, from Sheffield. I’m a Sim.
That’s a bit rubbish. Well, it meant I could just come in the clothes I was wearing anyway.
Have you been to this sort of thing before? I once dressed up as Manny Calavera from Grim Fandango. All I did was put a tube over my head.

Hello! Are you going to eat us? No. I’m a friendly ghost. My name’s Tim.

Any sign of Pac-Man? Yeah - he’s over there!
