Code:
mob/Login()
        usr.name=input("Choose an rp name.") as text
        world<<"<b>[usr] has joined the arena."
        switch(input("Hair?") in list("Spiky","Short","Long","Bald")                
                if("Spiky") 
                        icon='Character-Male.dmi'
                        icon_state="spiky"
                if("Short")
                        icon='Character-Male.dmi'
                        icon_state"short"
                if("Long")
                        icon='Character-Male.dmi'
                        icon_state"long"
                if("Bald")
                        icon='Character-Male.dmi'
                        icon_state""

The icon_states need = between state and ""

It's because you're missing a comma ',' or right paren ')'.

Also, as Garthor said, he is missing a comma ',' or right paren ')'.

switch(input("Hair?") in list("Spiky","Short","Long","Bald"))  //Notice the second ')' on the end


Every time you open a bracket, you must close it. Three open means three closed.

You know you can rewrite that to make it alot shorter right?
mob/Login()
        usr.name=input("Choose an rp name.") as text
        world<<"<b>[usr] has joined the arena."
        usr.icon='Character-Male.dmi'
        var/A = input("Hair?") in list("Spiky","Short","Long","Bald")               
        usr.icon_state = A

Thats really simple.

Incredible. And you can also shorten your code by eliminating the useless A variable and setting icon_state to input()'s return value directly, as well as the pointless (in Login()) icon setting by the way...
But oops, it won't work unless all your icon_states have the same names as your options, and it isn't the case in the OP's game for the bald state (you've also got usr abuse in your code). =P
