So according to OP, five users supporting a title is the "usual requirement", and Normal Scientist has four supporters by my count, so is it just not going to happen until an additional person supports it or how does it work?

I like the ideas behind normal scientist but it doesn't feel like a cohesive title, I kinda just see it as two words that are relevant to the person but don't really mesh with each other well
this is a request for someone to change my mind fyi

I know Ambic already has a title but I kind of want to
nominate Ambic for "OTTPP"
because in all of his games he is completely over the top but in the absolute best way. After his first game he got the advice to either rein in his instincts or lean into them harder. He chose the latter option and I think everyone's experience has been better for it.

For those of you who aren't LSG/Survivor fans, "OTTPP" is an abbreviation for "Over the top, extra positive tone" and is used when describing playstyles and edits.

Nominate Black for Scum Queen.


Do I even need to explain this one? She's known as the Scum Queen and I think she deserves to have it as a title.

Loosely speaking, the requirement is actually just a, "okay does this seem like it has enough support?", but since that's largely subjective, a more objective number is five.

I can require less or more situationally. In this case, I felt there wasn’t a strong enough consensus for it, so I need more talk there.

Technically speaking, the site supports giving someone more than one title!

...it just would have to be on a separate line. (Which is supported, but frowned upon.)

And, as always, a better title can always replace an older one at any time, when the occasion calls for it.

I'm pretty strongly against having multiple titles on someone unless it's specifically a thing about that person, tbh. On the other hand, is it possible to turn AniX's sig into like 7 titles?

i just don't think "scum king/queen/god/good person/winner/champ/whatever" is a very notable or unique title on this site. What are we saying? That Black is a good scum player? She is, but so are 1000 other people on this site.

Like if you want to pay homage to someone's record/ability as a certain alignment on this site you nominate them for a scummy for that, not a title.

I think Black is indeed long overdue for a title but that one ain't it.

I agree on both ends: we should brainstorm a title for Black, but it shouldn’t be scum queen. Cute nickname sure, but if I hear scum queen I think of Titus or LLD, and if someone else hears scum queen they would think whoever they consider a great scum player. It’s not very specific.


I was thinking something like Luna Fatale. Luna Cortizone is the daughter of a mafia godfather, and the nickname is given to her because of her charming personality, a femme fatale wordplay. Luna means moon in latin, and Umbreon is highly related with the moon

I wasn't aware of the title's associations with other players, but I do agree with you now that you say that.

Nth Luna Fatale.
