i can't figure out how to program so that when you select a character nobody else can select that character. is this even possible?

You would have to make a list of possible selections and remove items from that list when it comes time, here's a small example:

var/list/selections = list("One","Two","Three")//make a list as a global variable

mob/Login()
    var/class = input("Which class do you want to be?")in selections//input what you want.
    if(selections == "")//no more left
        src<<"Game is full, sorry!"
        del(src)
    else
        src.Class = class
        selection-=class//remove it
        ..()//default action

//If you want to add back when someone leaves
mob/Logout()
    selection+=src.Class
    del(src)
