Robbed of a scummy for what had to be the best
unvote in mafiascum history.
Sometimes I get heated and don’t realize it. If I get like this please somebody tell me to take a break and chill out. Thanks in advance.

But he is, in the best way possible.
Okay. So by MAFIASCUM standards. Maybe his cockiness isn't maximum. It'd probably only be an 8 on a scale of HAHASORTAHUMBLEBUTNOTREALLY to Fate.
But that's because of the culture on MS.net; if he were as cocky as he is on another site, he'd definitely be considered cocky.
(Again, in the best way possible. <3 AP.)
How the hell is it an obscure reference? I understood it instantly. (Granted, I have an edge over most people, having watched TNG obsessively as a kid, and being exposed to TVTropes, which quite accurately makes the statement that they've got an eerie similarity.

Heh. I kinda like cocky as a title because it is fairly accurate (although my cockiness is oftentimes just a front) and TIL that male pigeons are called cocks. So the title works in a few ways which is cool.
Im shocked that "Foul Fowl" or something didn't get suggested first tbh and Im surprised OS proposed this. Although I guess I _was_ particularly cocky in mykonian's zombie extravaganza.

I'm not sure smileys are allowed (or even technically doable) in titles. I can't think of a single example.

That's a requirement now?
So obviously it's referencing the emoticon and the whole, HAR HAR he's a bird.
And so I know that cocky and tongue-in-cheek can sort of go hand in hand. I was just hoping someone else would fill in that missing link, if it made sense for the guy.
Maybe if you were, like, kwadz08 instead? Seems to fit with the others, I mean.
no.

for some reason i think your being aware of some icon doesn't automatically mean it isn't obscure

My title used to refer to Shea, strange things have happened.
Tamuz is the expression of the alienated, of the ambitious, of the dispossessed.

I would think that fit is more relevant than obscurity or lack thereof. Given Bert's play style I really can't imagine a better fit.
