I suspected Mitey partially because I thought virtually no-one was naturally that nice and therefore she must be putting it on. Truth.

I don't think enough people will get the He's reference though, it'll probably just cause more gender confusion. I'd go for that or just Too nICe.

I mildly prefer "Too nICe" to "He's too nICe", but not by a lot. I'll be putting the "He's too nICe" in the first post in about a day unless there's a strong consensus in favor of the other version.
I replaced into Chess Mafia for 6 months, and all I got was a win and this lousy sig.

Niceness is actually something of a scumtell. Scum are more likely to worry about needlessly antagonising people.

If it makes a difference, Troll was aware of this potential issue when Troll submitted the title suggestion. Shortly after submitting it Troll sent a PM to MiteyMouse asking whether "She's too nICe" or simply "Too nICe" would be preferable. Her reply no indicated that this was the case.

Troll gets the impression that the confusion that be caused by leaving her gender unmarked be intentional so having a title that adds to the confusion no necessarily be a bad thing.

As it is, Troll likes it with He's in front as that makes it a title which be more dense with references (hmm, Troll supposes that depends on how that be measured but Troll thinks it no would be any less dense under most metrics that spring to mind offhand.) Reference density in a title be a good thing in Troll's opinion.

Troll makes good points. People leave gender unmarked for a reason.
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

Nominate charter for Anger Magna-ment


He sometimes gets very angry, and the Magna Carta was a charter.

I think it could be better.

So now we give titles to random lurkers? K7 or SSK maybe. Not Looker. That's like saying "Hey, let's nominate McSkullchick (real user) for
flake
because it fits her sometimes-blonde-like personality and she flaked from a Newbie game once."

Looker has met the criteria for a title, and has lurked in more than one game.

Perhaps giving lurkers titles will encourage them to be less lurky.

Or vice-versa, and once they get a title, they'll lurk more often... :/

I have enjoyed playing with Looker. I don't think such an insulting title should be given to her.
Surrender, imagine and of course wear something nice.
