Okay. I'll get back to that when I've finished metaing you, I suppose.

What's that?

but I'd have to effort if I use quotes and pretty formatting. I'll get to this sometime after football but why are you specifically asking about those 2?

I was agreeing with Skygazer earlier that this doesn't look exactly like her scum game. So its a meta read and I think there are scummier slots in the game.

How far have you read now?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I don't need pretty formatting, though pointing me to specific posts would be helpful.

I reread the first 10 pages or so, then decided to read the game non-linearly to get into things quicker.

but I'd still have to find the post numbers and jazz. You could just read my ISO instead of asking me to do your work for you.

I knew you read the first ten pages but you need/should be trying to catch up. Now why are you asking about Jingle and Fire?

so you just avoid the VC's. It's really not as hard as you are making it seem to be.

Are you town, Invis? If you're replacing out, at least do us one last favor and tell us your partners if you're scum?

First of all, your only scumgame is a really WTF moment game.

Second, the hurtcounts are to manipulate the pace of the game to play better with the large playerbase and mastina's role, mostly due to an incredible level of inactivity.

Basically, anyone you're willing to lynch/see gladiated is in your hurt pool. This can be expressed via hurt tags

Code: Select all

[hurt]Playername[/hurt][code] or by just generally making it obvious to me you want said player gladiated. I've been including votes because if you want them lynched you presumably don't mind them being gladiated.

The goal was to speed up the game to prevent even more flakiness.

fwiw I dont think invis is scum in this game. I saw his newbie scum game this year, his micro game where he was hydra with myloninja and town there, and his ascetic town game in a mini normal hosted by penguinpower. invis is very uncomfortable as scum and lurks. this game doesnt appear to be his scum game.

I've seen a few of Shoshin's town game, she seems very "get things moving, down to business," which is great since we need more of that in FM . And in life.
Don't know about her scum meta though.
In post 5431, Shoshin wrote:What's this "hurt" thing?
It's some manufactured thing from a group of folks who believe it's going to improve pace of the game. Obviously I was not one of the creators of that.
