To you have to dress up if you're behind a screen?

not really... but YOU will feel better and more professional if you do -- and therefore you will play better.  Really.

Since I normally don't wear suits, I would feel uncomfortable wearing one to play.  I'd just wear my pajamas since no one can see me anyway.

I also like to play in my pyjamas, it's a pity I cannot wear them to my lessons as well  ;D

When it comes to clothing it should always be the main priority to be comfortable, but sometimes one has to negotiate a little to stay proper...

You may be asked out from behind that screen, or it may fall down.
