First, Best Used-to-Bie is funnier. And secondly, the pun ought to be spelled "Sudo_Newbie"Netopalis wrote:Hey....What about "Best Usedbie"? Alternatively, I do like the psuedo-newbie....One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.- Max

No, you see, it's a pun. If you're not new, you're used.Sudo_Nym wrote:

For what reason? I didn't think you even playing on Korts anymore.Korts wrote:I would like my title to be returned toMafia Scumif possible.
Sudo_Newbie is way too similar to the username. And that is definitely something I'm trying to get rid of on the whole. Pseudo_Newbie is better, but still the same issue. Getting in early on Usedbie. I'm not a fan, I think it doesn't flow, has that jarring "d" in the middle. It doesn't sound nice -

Used-To-Be is a lot better, but see what you can do. I like the idea of it, but finding a happy medium where it makes a clear reference but doesn't sound like a Russian sword-swallower is trying a tongue-twister is the goal.It's unfortunate that good oral sex excuses bad chemistry. - Korts- Korts

I've returned to using my Korts account, and have returned, if possibly temporarily, to playing. I don't want "That Other Guy" anymore because I have grown to dislike it, as well as a growing ideological opposition to special titles in general--like I said in GD, I don't want in any way to be associated with people who take so much pride simply in having a title, and not the message of that title.scumchat never die- Ythill

I wasn't so much suggesting the title as referencing the thread where it was jokingly suggested in response to equally bad suggestions from that thread. My serious suggestion was for Ythan. This thread needs moreOman wrote:As for DGB's. I'd really, really prefer it wasn't a "mash-up" of 17 different jokes. I think one or two (like the early ones) works, but 7-8 references in 13 letters? Not where I want it to go.The Hormel Kidlove. Note that Ythan is even spamming here.
If the spam reference isn't desirable, maybe some pun of "signal:noise" that puts the emphasis on noise?Record:Town 10W/15LScum 4W/1LOther 2W/2LNewbie 1L

I love this regime already.Oman wrote:Sudo_Newbie is way too similar to the username. And that is definitely something I'm trying to get rid of on the whole.
Usedtobie (or some variant of that) is definitely the best. (I think the "best" bit is superfluous.) Having said that, I don't really see why Sudo should get a title for that thread at all. The "we are not going to remember this in two weeks" thing applies.
Mafia Piñata is way better for DGB than anything from some one-off thread she made.
Hormel is kind of obscure, but I am all for giving giving Ythan a "posts a lot"-related title. I don't actually know anything about his signal:noise ratio.As I move my vote

Sudo_Nym could be:Forever Young
Or is that too cheesy? (I'm now hearing my prom song over and over in my head).
It gets away from the username puns while still referring to the funny bit about him being best newbie for three years.
Also, I agree that Mafia Pinata is way better for DGB. (For anyone who doesn't know, lynching DGB yields yummy candy, that's why nobody can resist).Talk nerdy to me.

I've been thinking it was amusing that sudo was still best newbie about six months ago, so I don't really agree with this, tbh. Maybe I'm alone there though.The "we are not going to remember this in two weeks" thing applies.(10:50:24 PM) xcaykex: GODDAMNIT I DONT WANNA GET RID OF MY TENTACLE RAPE PORN

No title for Ythan please. We dont want to reward the spammy playstyle that annoys more than half of the regular players. Its like you are rewarding someone for lurking, but ala inverse. Do something cooler and come back bro.
Ill second Usedtobie for Sudo.Even if the guy is begging for it.
AlsoIll nominate Cobalt for knowsitsmeme.netor something funny related to his love for memes. Subtle but clever work there, cobalt.- Ythan

Not that I read all those many many posts, but skimming, they seem pretty game-related. This is pretty much what I recently what I won a scummie for. (Granted, he made almost as many posts in those newbies as I did in the large theme, even if I did miss the first month and a half of the game.) I can't hold his posting style against him.As I move my vote
