Play-by-post Pals: where everybody knows your shame

In an effort to make our games more accessible, we'll be rolling out play-by-post versions for a couple titles in the coming weeks.
Playing-by-post (PBP) means utilizing an online forum to take turns in a game. For example, anyone will be able to start a game of Pals by opening a new thread and posting their first question. The second player (be it a friend you invite, or any random awesome person) will respond by answering your question and posting their own. Play continues at your pace, you can play multiple games at once, and you can even receive email notifications so you don't have to check incessantly for a response. It's free-to-play made freely by us!
And of course, in order to play Pals, you'll need 24 faces. That's why I drew those other faces... and these faces, too! Take a gander and let me know which ones you like, and they may just end up in the final version. Sad, Sad Stories will also receive the PBP treatment, although Vampires, Vampire Slayers, and Whores unfortunately doesn't work in this form. We don't currently have plans for creating a PBP version of Them's Fightin' Words!, but if anyone out there is itching to play, definitely let us know and we'll reconsider.
If you've got any other questions about how this will work (or are sitting mouth agape at how awesome it will be), let us know in the comments.

And again, go ahead and see if I drew you (intentionally? Unintentionally? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm)!
