Title Troll:
AKA, "Post ITT to receive a title"
For the duration of this month, players may post in this thread and ask to receive a title.
In contrast to the
April Entitlement event, instead of the scummer themselves asking for a specific title, I, mastina, the title fairy, will bestow upon the user a title.
Scummers are not allowed to request a specific title; if you ask for something specific, I will just not give you a title at all.
Scummers are not allowed to request
not
having something as their title; if you ask to be titled but specify "just don't give me X", I will just not give you a title at all.
Unless I specifically request the help (I may run into situations where I lack inspiration), scummers are not allowed to suggest titles for other scummers.
For the duration of this event, scummers that have requested titles may have their title changed by me multiple times, if on a whim I decide on a different title being a better event title for them.
Scummers are not allowed to request a different title, however, once they have received an event title from me. The only options a scummer has are "opt in" or "opt out" (having their event title removed); once they opt out, they can't opt back in.
Scummers who already have a title may or may not receive a new title, depending on my whims. I might give them an event title based off of an alternative title suggestion (e.g. Aristophanes-->Mr. Brightside, Aristophanes-->Mr. Blue Sky, Chickadee-->Pew Pew); I might just leave them with their current title because they already have one; I might give them an entirely new title. So if you already have a title, you may end up sorely disappointed.
In short:
What differentiates this event from Entitlement?
In Entitlement, YOU got to chose YOUR title. During Title Troll, it's ME choosing your title. Your ONLY feedback is whether you decide to drop the title early or not; you get no say in what title I come up for you whatsoever. If you don't like what I come up with, you can ask for it to be removed, but I'm not going to then allow you to get a different one.
I may change titles I've already given, but IF I do so, it'll be on my own whims, NOT because of scummers complaining/giving feedback.
In short, this event is far more dictatorial; I hold absolute power over all the titles given out.
Until:
What happens after the event has finished?
From the week after this event ends, August 1st - August 7th, there will be a review period.
During this review period, if enough people vote to keep a title and the person still approves of the title, then it will stay. (About five votes will be needed to stay.)
You may only vote to keep 1/6th of the total scummer titles generated from this event. (If 6 scummers, you get one vote; 12 scummers, two votes; 24, four votes, etc.)
.
If a scummer has more than one event title,
voting for more than one of them will
not
count as one of your votes
. (I.e., if for Aristophanes there were the titles "Mr. Brightside", "Mr. Blue Skies", and "Bust so hard", voting for all three would count as
one
vote, not three.)
That is to say, how many votes you possess are per scummer, not per title. (The scummer will keep whichever gets the most votes, unless more than one title crosses the threshold, in which case they get to choose which of the ones with the necessary votes to keep. So if Aristophanes got seven on Mr. Blue Skies and only 3-4 on the others, he'd be offered Mr. Blue Skies; if he got 6 on Mr. Bright Side and Mr. Blue Skies but only 3 on Bust so Hard, he'd get to choose between Mr. Brightside and Mr. Blue Skies; if all three got 6 votes, he'd get a choice between all three. And, of course, regardless of all this, he could at any time opt out and not receive an event title.)
Otherwise, voting remains the same as in Entitlement.
Titles not receiving sufficient support will, on August 8th, be removed.
