Yeah, it's one of the reasons I prefer

The reason I suggested it for tierce as opposed to feysal is I got the impression she did more of the actual uh cache work? Could be wrong, but.

Feysal was more like HOLY SHIT DO ALL THIS AND MAGIC HAPPENS type thing, which is title worthy if we can think of something but we don't need to force it either.
are you thinking of me when you're with somebody else?

Cache Me If You Can is a far superior title for Tierce to all this other nonsense.

Oman is being pretty handy with the delete button these days. If I let it go on then it just piles up and up and up. Also editing posts to remove chunks if I feel there are nuggets of gold in an otherwise shitty post. EDIT: Seriously, don't take it personally.

Welcome to the new and involved Title Fairy. Abuse of power, etc etc, but at least now chamber stops saying shit about me to my face.

Don't worry Rhinotiger will be back. This one is just temporary support for my team pushing to make the NHL playoffs.

I don't think it really conveys the type of work they did. I really think "cache" should be in the title, and I also really like both of those puns: Cache Me If You Can, and Gotta Cache 'em All. Those are two damn good titles if I ever saw them. Witty, meaningful, and punny.

Cache Money, Cachemere, Upholsterer, Coupon Cutter, not so much =\

I think the only legit concern with the two in question are that they'd be more of a badge of honour for helping out, and not really something that defines the persons in question on a day-to-day basis. Still though, if I'd done all that work and I was suggested for one of the mentioned titles, I'd snap it up in a second as exactly that. A badge of honour.

It's short, straight-forward, has a perfectly good pun, and doesn't bring up unrelated pop culture references.

I'm not a total killjoy, especially when I find stuff funny.


Hopefully this shows that I understand the difference between fun and shitposting, I actually want you guys to have fun in/with this thread, I'm just very cautious of too many posts ruining the focus.

EDIT: Accidentally split a very solid post by Flay:

Mr Flay wrote:They're also both nominated for the increasingly-inaccurately-named Name Should Be In Orange award, but for me at least, this REALLY put them on the map for me (esp. Feysal). I think that is one way to earn a good title.

Amrun posts alot and plays in a lot of games, sure.

But saulres's title is more about his habit of checking your online activity when he's in a game with you. If you're posting a lot in the discussion boards or in other games, but not in the game, he'll call you scummy for active lurking.

This is a typical example. Another game where he did this more is lost to the void.

Not to be an ingrate, but I'm obliged to say no.

There have been a number of good points mentioned here. For one, I rather agree with Haylen about earning a title from long-term achievements. At the very least I think the title should say something about me. I think the pun is good, and the cache stuff fits - it is the sort of thing I just do. In past mafia games, I have always been involved in secretarial duties whenever there was a need to keep record of something, and to my amusement, there have been occasions when my records turned out to be more accurate than the mod's. The problem is that people would likely catch the Pokémon reference first, and that has nothing to do with me. To give a short anecdote, the only bit of Pokémon anime I ever saw consisted of a few seconds, where this girl whose name I never even knew was walking in the woods. "The forest is full of frolicking pokémons!" she said. "This is not for me!" I agreed, and walked away, though it had as much to do with the Finnish-language dubbing as it did with the series itself.

Then there is what Faraday said here:

In post 2779, Faraday wrote:The reason I suggested it for tierce as opposed to feysal is I got the impression she did more of the actual uh cache work? Could be wrong, but.

Feysal was more like HOLY SHIT DO ALL THIS AND MAGIC HAPPENS type thing, which is title worthy if we can think of something but we don't need to force it either.

I believe this is correct. From what I can tell, I have recovered pages of maybe half the number of games Tierce has. I feel my main contribution to the recovery effort has been keeping track of who has what, and especially in repairing pages cached by Google and sharing the method for doing that. You know, parsing. That may not be so easy to craft puns from though. I gave it a shot, and what I came up with was something completely different.

It is a shame that most of my best mafia performances have been off-site. To name one, I once played in an NCIS-themed game, where I was told that I was a town survivor, in other words I had to survive and I could only win with town. What I was not told was that I was an amnesiac reflexive silencer. And a miller. After I learned what I'd been I was stunned that I'd won.
