That damn good also doubles as a wresting reference.

I second the nom.

So, you're a liar now.

[DemonHybrid]

OH SHI-

Sherlock Holmes on the case! You caught me fair and square.

http://mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16779

It's bad form to nom yourself for titles, and even worse form to lie to the community.

I'm done with this conversation.

[DemonHybrid]

Oh well. I guess it went over your heads.

It's been known to happen.

You should stop lying to people.

Nom ReaperCharlie for Lying Liar

I approve if you 2nd that one.

[DemonHybrid]

I don't entirely disapprove, and I think it's funny as hell, but surely we can come up with something better than "Lying Liar".

Tossing out a few (probably mostly meh) ideas. Hopefully someone funnier than I am can bounce off my ideas and further improve on them. <_<

Pants on Fire

(or

Skirt on Fire

, to reference the gender switch a while back)

Lying Liara

or

Lying Liar-a

- references the gender switch, and the creation of and ridiculously frequent posting in the Mass Effect thread. (I know not everyone will immediately get this one, but that's true of quite a few of the titles people are currently running around with. Liara's a main female character in Mass Effect.)
or,

Mrs. Zaeed Massani

to reference, again, the gender switching, and his ridiculous love for Zaeed ever since the Mass Effect hurt/heal started.

...I'm sorry, RC. You know I <3 you. <_<

I'm pretty sure that my point was that he doesn't deserve a title after lying to get one for his hydra.

[DemonHybrid]

e) I know, I know: http://mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16779 ...

Yep.

[DemonHybrid]

Sorry MoI, I don't like your suggestion, because I'm hardwired to disagree with Charlie perpetually.

I do agree with identity crisis, though.

[DemonHybrid]

3rd should I be here

it's even better.

4th this

[DemonHybrid]

Glad to see your view is based logically on the merits and humor of the suggestion.

Oh wait, nevermind …

That was more of an insult towards RC and less of a dislike of your suggestion. That being said, hito hit it out of the park with his suggestion =(

I found yours interesting and it sounded good, but it just barely fell short to identity crisis until hito posted.

[DemonHybrid]

What's wrong with chesskid's ingame posting, again?

[DemonHybrid]

Seriously. You guys have been mixing his in game play with his out of game posting. He's been REALLY good.

[DemonHybrid]

Princeton's Pride

I like it,

2nd

Third

for the record as well. It's not mocking Princeton in the least.

[DemonHybrid]

CK has helped me win as mafia on the same team. CK has owned me (mafia) as town. He's confident and has a good intuition.

If you're going to put him down for being a bad player, you need to put down everyone else who uses good intuition as a base.

[DemonHybrid]

A million of other "bad" posters have titles.

I use "bad" in a loose sense. What one person may perceive as bad could be completely fine to another person.

[DemonHybrid]

It seems like Parama wants a title too.

Nominate Parama for Pied Piper

for the countless amount of times he took the leadership role in mafia games. He just did it again in a game that ended minutes ago, I checked this thread and I figured it'd be good for him. Plus, alliteration.

[DemonHybrid]

Pied Piper

bold tags lol

[DemonHybrid]

Beginning with "X probably wants a title, let's give 'em one!" isn't a great start.

Nah, I know. Just keeping with the "Parama's been giving chesskid a lot of crap about his" theme here. He really does deserve one and there is rarely a game where he doesn't take shit over and go "Okay, everyone's listening to me now". And everyone buys it. EVERY SINGLE TIME.

[DemonHybrid]

Just for the record, I'm waiting for the title suggestions to stop so I can say no to all of them in one post.

[DemonHybrid]

The last good title suggestion was for Faraday's...

[DemonHybrid]

@Oman: I think you need to do a public / loud refresher course on what exactly you think this thread is and how it should work, the endless bitching about what is a good title / venting of every slight has surpassed people spitballin' about titles and has now (imo) pretty much just de-railed any good that could come out of this thread. What was a fun diversion and community building thread is now srs business (and that just sucks).

I think he's explained it more than enough times. No offense to JD, but I think Oman has been doing a good enough job and has explained a very clear and fair process when it comes to selecting titles. He's not some sort of title nazi. He just doesn't want to pass out non-mafia titles, because when you give UT Fat and Sassy, soon enough you'll be giving someone like ReaperCharlie a unicorn-themed title.

[DemonHybrid]

Oh, and for the record, if ReaperCharlie gets a title, especially one that has to do with

fucking unicorns

, I'm going to change my account password and forget it.

[DemonHybrid]

Well I have a new mission.

Hey, look, I can arbitrarily hate someone too without a reason.

[DemonHybrid]

Nah, not really. I have a pretty good memory and I'm not one of those guys that covers his ears, goes "LA LA LA LA" and forgets something, haha

Back on topic, Oman just needs to give the people who have been decided to get titles their titles and keep an open mind to those titles that have like 8 or 9 people supporting it. Otherwise, he's doing great. There's no need for a system switch.

[DemonHybrid]

He just doesn't want to pass out non-mafia titles, because when you give UT Fat and Sassy, soon enough you'll be giving someone like ReaperCharlie a unicorn-themed title.

Did you miss the part where we talked about other non-mafia titles, or are you just choosing to ignore it?

He ignores everything that doesn't support what he wants and just gets more and more indigent as time goes on.

Well, now you're just showing that you know absolutely fuck-all about me.

No, UT, I haven't ignored it, but I'm clearly showing support for the fact that mafia titles on a mafia site makes sense. People in the past have gotten titles for non-mafia related features, but that is such a low minority that it's not even worth bringing that up as a type of argument because such a low number of people have gotten titles for those kinds of features. It's not a good sample size and it's not worth talking about. Oman talked with mith and clearly agreed with the set of rules that he abides by now and it's not anal or nazi-like in the least; it's worked for a long time. 99.9% of titles on MS are about mafia games. It's just not worth arguing that we should expand that .1% just because of an off-site joke. This wasn't a problem before, so why is it a problem now?

TBM, this means that I agree with the tradition. I don't care about what I want, it's about what suites the site better and I'm only showing support for the person who was appointed the person as a title distributor by the people who, you know, run the site.

EDIT: My point is that just because that the VERY occasional person in the past has gotten a non-mafia related title doesn't make Oman obligated to give them out like hot cakes, or at all, for that matter.

[DemonHybrid]

i have an idea

lets lock this thread

It's fine as is. I'm not really going to say anymore because there isn't anymore to be said, really.

[DemonHybrid]

What, to you, determines a "non-mafia" title?

Not a sarcastic question in the least, by the way, I'm legitimately curious. I'm counting titles that have at least something to do with the mafiascum.net website (and not scumchat, FTR)

[DemonHybrid]

@DH: You're being stupid and perpetuating a senseless argument.

Just agreeing with the man, sir.

Here's my main argument in a nutshell, all wrapped up and candy coated for everyone. (I.E: a SUMMARY.)

-Mafia titles are titles that originated from the site and clearly describe who a person is on site. Titles that deviate from that norm (titles that originate from a different video game or website, for example) are rare and have been given in the past, but only on extreme occasion.

-Oman was appointed title fairy by the people who run this site, giving him the qualifications to make his own decisions based on titles. He is far from unfair and isn't obligated to give a title for any reason.

That's all. Really. That argument was like a band-aid. The only thing I'm even mildly agitated about is people putting down Oman's judgment, and that's not even that big of a deal to me because he's a big boy and can handle it. Now, if someone has something against me personally, the PM control panel is at the top of the page, not that box at the bottom that says "Quick Reply". Otherwise, I've said what I needed to.

[DemonHybrid]

Nominate DH for And Another Thing

I swear every other day I read a friggin post about how "I'm not gonna talk about this anymore"

also
<---look a not mafia title

To be honest, that might actually be good because I edit my posts like a madman after I post them originally (not in mafia games, but elsewhere around the boards. JD, Fate and some others may have seen me do it, and even in this thread)

I even did it for this post

Anyway, whats your title in reference to? I haven't been around long enough to know.

Explaining in more detail what I meant (I know, shut up, I keep getting dragged back in. Besides, it's restating my original argument, don't go crazy): What I was saying is that I was agreeing with Oman that titles originated on MafiaScum are fine regardless of context or whether or not it has to do with a specific game but stuff originating on Starcraft, LoL, WoW, etc. for instance is iffy because 99% of the playerbase that sees that title won't get it.

[DemonHybrid]

...Yes.

If he will accept it I will

2nd

and repeatedly bug Oman on aim about it, this title is perfect.

Sure, if people realize that it has more than one context, with the amount of editing and doubleposting that I do as well as not being satisfied with an argument. Pretty sure that I should have half of the in-game posts that I have already.

[DemonHybrid]

Alright, lets take a vote, even. How many people think that "mafia related titles" have to do with a specific game and not the site itself? It -doesn't-.

JD, I understand your point on Oman being an arbiter, but that's something you should bring up to mith. Oman's doing a job. He's not here to piss people off, and I think you know that.

LoL isn't part of the MS community. UT gets Fat and Sassy and only like....10 people will know about it. So...yeah. I'm pretty sure we could argue that that's not remotely close to being part of the website culture.

Edit: I'm respectfully disagreeing because in order to understand a title such as Fat and Sassy, you'd need both an understanding of MS references and LoL references. 99.9% of the other titles (not counting scumchat), you only need an understanding of MS references. Oman's arguing that if it originated on the site, it's okay. If it's an in-joke between a group of people on another video game, website or media source, it's not. It's only a subtle difference in ruling, but there are and will be way better titles for UT.

[DemonHybrid]

Buttonman didn't define what he thought was a mafia or mafiascum related title. From what I'm guessing, you guys think that I mean something that has to do with a specific game. It can be related to personas, non-game onsite interactions or mish mash games. I keep saying this, but someone should NOT need an additional knowledge base of something else like LoL or a different website to understand a Mafiascum title and I'm pretty sure Oman believes the same thing.

Liking a title and it being appropriate for the site are two completely different things. I'm defending Omans capability in deciding this stuff. PM mith if you don't believe he is.

[DemonHybrid]

Damn, what a support.

Sure, yeah, I accept it if Oman's cool with it.

Also, this might be the alcohol talking, but that's a UT title I CAN accept.

[DemonHybrid]

Regarding "And Another Thing" -- should it have elipses (...) at the end?

And Another Thing...

Eh, sure.

[DemonHybrid]

or

...and another thing!

I'll leave it to the powers that be to switch the title back and forth at their whim, but I will say the exclamation point is more appropriate

I prefer And Another Thing...

1. You get a feel of "Dammit, there's more?"
2. There's stuff after the ellipses that you don't see

[DemonHybrid]

I like how happy and content and agreeable DH is when he's getting a title.

Hmmmm.

Nope, still not a fan of you.

The discussion moved to another topic. Catch me there.

[DemonHybrid]

Foghorn Leghorn is also a ROOSTER.

[DemonHybrid]

Cocks.

[DemonHybrid]

his modding is definitely above average.

Blackest Night

[DemonHybrid]

RC should never be named a "good mod". He's disrespectful, accusing, stubborn and coaching. And I wasn't involved with that game, not even a bit. I'm all for calling RC a weird person instead of a bad guy, but his modding should never

ever

be praised.

There is a very, very fine line between sheen and good. No amount of photoshopping in the world can erase all of the bad things that happened that game.

[DemonHybrid]

Anyway, I don't want to keep a conversation like that going. If you want to give RC a title, go ahead, but don't do it because of his modding.

[DemonHybrid]

not just because it talks about my modding,

Yeah. I know it does.

My point is that you shouldn't be getting a title for being a "good" mod. I'm fine with that nominated title, because it describes the complete opposite. I'll let you figure it out.

[DemonHybrid]

My point is that you shouldn't be getting a title for being a "good" mod. I'm fine with that nominated title, because it describes the complete opposite.

How many bloody times have you said you were going to ignore him?

But every time he posts somewhere there you are following him, we get it you're not a fan now please stop or take it to PMs.

I'm not "following him", and I was talking about his title suggestion and the reasoning of such. Not him. And last I checked, we were in the title thread.

You should get off of that high horse before it bucks you off.

[DemonHybrid]

'One more thing'

Yeah, if I kept talking about his title, which is a conversation I ended hours ago.

When I said I'd stop talking about him, I meant that I'd stop feuding with him. I never said I wouldn't discuss titles, even if they are associated with him. All I said is that he shouldn't get a title for being a "good mod".

TBM, I should note, the more you bring it up, the more we talk about it, sooooo

[DemonHybrid]

Nominate StrangerCoug for

Oops, Mod Error

Based on his Nightmare 3 game which had to be stopped because of it and [REDACTED].

I think he'd just prefer something like

Uh-oh. Butterfingers.

Referencing the mod errors may put it in a negative light.

[DemonHybrid]

I've rejected at least 5 titles. It should be obvious by this point that I'm not exactly interested in a title. I have to keep my place as the Mafia Scum with the most posts, y'know.

Uh.....

isn't that, in sort of a roundabout way, you being interested in what your title is? Since you WANT to keep it as Mafia Scum.

[DemonHybrid]

Nth NordIC

Come on.

[DemonHybrid]

Jesus Christ. Give it a rest.

[DemonHybrid]

No no no. No "Beard". Just

NordIC

.

We know Thor has a beard. It's not funny or clever.

Please explain how NordIC is funny or clever also. Because I'm not seeing it at all.

I think NordIC is very clever. I could agree with NordIC Beard, but the beard part doesn't really amplify anything.

[DemonHybrid]

NordIC Wisdom?

Nthed.

[DemonHybrid]

I'd be okay with MythIC for Thor.

[DemonHybrid]

I can't wait till next month when I can get a title. Maybe
Survivor Addict
Or
Wild Card
Hmm maybe you guys could come up with something better

I sincerely can't think of anything good for you. So no nom.

[DemonHybrid]

nth for 16779

[DemonHybrid]

Any I've missed, tell me. Other than that if your opinion is in the thread, please don't just reiterate it or quote it. I WILL be rereading the thread to get your opinions, and I have been reading along, so there is no need for doubling up.

Will also be cleaning up the deadposts as usual.

And Another Thing...

for me.

Which kind of reminds me of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RV1JHn7hYY

You know, since they're trolls and all

[DemonHybrid]

nominate Nobody Special for It's Midnight Somewhere

I'll nth this, but I know how NS can be sensitive about this sort of stuff.

[DemonHybrid]

Norsome

[DemonHybrid]

Okay, no, that's actually quite meh.

[DemonHybrid]

Seriously, is everyone still fixated on "Beard"?

[DemonHybrid]

Poor Thor. People love him so much he'll never get a title.

Nominate Thor for Never getting a title

joke...

...this might actually be the most clever.

[DemonHybrid]

Can I seriously Nth the

Never getting a title

title?

I like the irony in it.

[DemonHybrid]

I wish I was more Never getting a title love.

It seems like the definite best option at this point haha

[DemonHybrid]

I wish I was more Never getting a title love.

is this english

Never getting a title

is the title.

you know what, why am I even bothering responding to you at this point

[DemonHybrid]

Does Thor actually swear a lot? I'd go with Papa Smurf if that's the case.

[DemonHybrid]

I'm sorry, the more I see Chesskid's title, the more I hate it, in retrospect.

Nom

CHESSKID

for Chesskid. I see nothing else that can go there. I'm sure he'll fucking love it.

[DemonHybrid]

Nominate

For both his love of typewriters and his cranky old man "How Not to Post" thread.

Chevre's definitely a girl who changed her MS gender, then.

Encyclopedia Mafiatica is so amazing.

[DemonHybrid]

Ugh. Prude Litigator is terrible.

Huh? Why?

[DemonHybrid]

This has probably been done before, but

nominate xRECKONERx

Replace Gay with your own homosexual euphemism if desired.

Because Reck is defined by his sexual orientation, right? All gay people are different than us.

This thread is so terrible now. When I start to MISS reapercharlie, then you know that the people who have taken this thread to it's lowest point are terrible.
