Title Fairy: Killer App Edition (Swipe Right!)

[BROseidon]

This 7 isn't going away. It was THE MEME of Survivor Meet, which is saying a lot because I'm literally making an invitational of memes from that meet.

Nominee:

Thestatusquo

Title:

Shea

Fairy Opinion:

I've thought this one through and I think I was wrong. Clearly there was a lot of support for the title and a lot of reasoning behind it. I think I've made a mistake by not accepting it the first time around, so I'm

accepting

it now. But I maintain that we shall not go willy-nilly with first-name titles and the like in the future.

Nominee:

GreyICE

Title:

50 Shades of NICE / Fifty Shades

Fairy Opinion:

Eh? All these really do is attempt to enhance or improve the current title. I agree with Psyche in that 50 Shades of NICE could really be taken out of context a few more months away from ChicagoMeet. It may seem to some that 50 -> Fifty is a small change, but I like it. "Fifty Shades" is just better-looking to me than "50 Shades". So InflatablePie's slight amendment of Fifty Shades is

accepted

Nominee:

Ranger

Title:

{Top, Tier} and variations

Fairy Opinion:

I'm not really familiar with Ranger, but I like this title! It's pretty signature and representative of her reads, and if they are truly good reads, then it's a very worthy and fitting title. I like it with the brackets because that makes it more unique. I'm

accepting

{Top, Tier}.

Nominee:

Flameaxe

Title:

This 7

Fairy Opinion:

We had a nice discussion about this title and Flameaxe's current title in the SUPP Discord chat. Ether was there to discuss the old one, "Comma Police"; it's from a post restriction in a marathon game. On the other hand, BPC and Shadoweh (and Reck in thread) have explained "This 7" and how it pertained to SurvivorMeet.

I mean, I had no idea how "Comma Police" was relevant to Flameaxe. And I know we're in the moment of SurvivorMeet, so who knows how quickly this will fade, but I think it is most certainly more fitting than the current title. I also like that "This 7" seems sort of clunky when an outsider looks at it, but it's really easily explained. I'm

accepting

This 7.

So yeah. Everyone has 48 hours to approve and further discuss these titles!

slow your roll

As someone who mods this board, and has met Flameaxe in person, I have no idea what "Comma Police" or "This 7" refer to.

[BROseidon]

You're going to be hearing a lot more about THIS 7

[Kublai Khan]

No other 7?

I almost want to report this post for that pun. Mostly so I can be happy that a moderator can see it and appreciate it.

At the risk of taking all sorts of ire for this, Shea is a terrible title.

I am deeply uncomfortable with you having enough familiarity with me to call me by my first name but not being able to tell me who you are.

I'm not going to tell you to replace out, but I

am

uncomfortable playing under those circumstances.

This is from the mafia PT of a game that just ended. Read the thread up to that point. One of his scumbuddies called him Shea and he was so uncomfortable with the situation that his behavior in response to it caused his scumbuddy to replace out. Giving him a title that encourages more people to call him Shea seems like an absolutely awful idea.

[Ranger]

Oh my god I was not expecting this.

Nominate Ranger for Top Tier or something along those lines, something to signify her readslists.

{Read, Lister}

{Top, Tier} would also work.

I like {Top, Tier} more.

2nd Top Tier

As long as it has the brackets, Nth

<3 <3 <3

(I accepted. Whatever form is fine with me, though I have a soft spot for the brackets being included.)

I don't understand how it is relevant that I was uncomfortable with my scumbuddy being unwilling to tell me who they were when they clearly knew who I was.

But sure, be an asshole for no reason?

[DeathRowKitty]

Yes, anyone who disagrees is just being an asshole for no reason.

[UpTooLate]

Shea, DRK is not trying to be an asshole, it's a valid point. I get both sides, and I understand why you were uncomfortable in the situation, but this is should be discussed.

[hiplop]

I agree this needs to be discussed. It is a bizarre title on its own being just a first name but with the addition of that incident just makes me feel uneasy about it.

Why does it need further discussion? If shea says it's irrelevant, it's irrelevant.

That isn't what further discussion is for.

[Clumsy]

That's not how discussion works. ._.

people don't discuss their own title
