Ms. Pac-Man Machine
“The Old Girl”

She showed up at the Viget Labs office one morning, courtesy of Squidoo. She’s seen good times and bad times. And now she’s finally found a nurturing home in the front-end developers’ area of the office.

Signature Move

To hold our lunches and snacks while we play.

Blair “The Muppet” Culbreth

Blair may not be the best player, but she's certainly the most animated. The better she does, the more panicked and excited she gets. And the more excited she gets, the more she flails and squeals and generally embarrasses herself.

Signature Move

Impatiently finishing a board when there were still ghosts that could've been eaten.

Blake “The Smudge” Walters

Blake holds all the highest scores, and with good reason. He's dedicated himself to studying all the patterns of the game. This scientific approach makes him a cold, heartless, ghost-eating machine.

When things work out irrationally well through sheer luck.

Jason “Snoozy Bear” Garber

What Jason lacks in Pac-manning refinement, he makes up for in honesty. None can be trusted more to tweet their score, the good, the bad, and the just plain ridiculous.

Signature Move

To go in for the power pellet with ghosts right on your back, but then turn before actually eating it, thereby dying dramatically and gruesomely.

Trevor “The Grown-Up” Davis

The name of the game for Trevor is Aggression & Greed. Never flinching or hesitating, Trevor ruthlessly stalks ghosts up until the last possible second. This raptor-like approach means high scores... and high risks.
