Prodge of all sitewide activities for today - I promised you all yesterday that, yes, I would get to things soon, but anticipating that there was a very real chance I'd need to do this is
precisely
why I said I couldn't promise a date other than "soonish".

I am optimistic that I
should
have time for all of my duties, here included, come tomorrow. Still can't promise it for certain, but I don't think there's anything which would get in the way (whereas today, there was), so. Hopefully tomorrow, will be here.

Fyi "Bitch King" is never going to be allowed.

I got a warning once for having that same word in my Sig iirc because they are held to a higher level than posts are yadayada.

I'm positive titles fall into the same category.

nom MariaR for
Twenty Two Faced


When looking back through the old title threads I think there was some pretty good discussion on a title for Maria that never ended up making it through because the title fairy changed at an inopportune moment. I personally think that "I Have Many Names" was the best of the titles suggested back then but I prefer Twenty Two Faced for a few reasons.

First, to justify either of the titles, among the traits that Maria is most well known for are being very good at scum, and having a lot of alts. "I Have Many Names" certainly fits the alt aspect of that well, and while it does have something of a sinister tone that might be reminiscent of scum, I can't help but feel that it understates the "being very good at scum" trait.

To me, "Twenty Two Faced" better incorporates both elements, with two faced being a more clear indicator of lying and being good at scum, and the more literal interpretation of twenty two faces being an allusion to a great deal of alternate accounts. Also, it's the sort of unique twist on a normal phrase ("two faced") that I feel like makes up a lot of classic titles, e.g. All Work and Roleplay, Best Newcrummer, etc.


i think that unlike a lot of titles that refer to people's unique personality traits that it's both really easily understandable while still having a bit underneath. also, include a hyphen anywhere as looks best.

I don't think Twenty Two Faced satisfies me here. Mostly because based on that title alone, if I to tell it to Beeboy and he had to guess who that was for, he would probably not guess MariaR and I wouldn't either.
Now, that might be because we know her a bit more and that because we're friends with her.
Like, Maria is not someone who I would describe as a "Two Faced" person.

I do like the start of this tho and I think I can offer some suggestions to improve it
- Something I identify with Maria is that sometimes she makes alts based off of characters from other mediums and in my discord dms she occasionally does rp as danganropa characters.

"In Disguise" is something that came to my mind atm.
Similarly "Disguised as:" is also something that came to my mind.

Tho I'm not sure this references her reputation as a player perfectly.

I don't think of it as a disguise though I think of it as a dual identity. Nsg's nom captures that if it makes you think of the Batman character which I think is pretty natural.

When I think of Maria I think of 2 characters, both from Danganropa

Sonia and Maki
both of which she owns alts for.

Actually now that I think about it, Ultimate Cosplaying Assassin comes to my mind and is something I would probably associate with MariaR on the spot.
I'm not sure about the quality tho but I think the quality is fine

the Ultimate Cosplaying part refers to another DR character who isn't associated with MariaR herself but cosplays as other DR characters which can be associated to Maria herself.
the Assassin part refers to not only a reference to one of their more known alts, her Maki alt, as well as describes her play in a way I feel like best describes her

Like when she lies to you, she literally stabs you in the back ;~;

i recognize that there's the potential for the negative connotation of being a "two faced" person rather than referring more to just being good at mafia, although that's really the opposite of what i was trying to go for.

i understand the danganronpa references for "Ultimate Cosplaying Assassin" and i think it's fairly fitting. i think it leans a bit heavily on the reference side, although taken at face value it still basically means the same thing and is easily understandable.

I think twenty two faced is better on the accessibility criteria and I know that kinda sucks for those that do have the reference for danganronpa
Danganronpa is definitely more obscure than batman, though?
