I'm gonna take this these Black suggestions in a different direction. Her playstyle has been described thusly:
In post 121, Black wrote:
In post 116, Bellaphant wrote: I don't think she's pointing this at him, I think she's trying to engage. Chill, miss scum hunter
This made me think about something Shea said about me recently:
I think tonally she asks all these extremely pointed questions. The questions themselves aren't always pointed but they have a tonal resonance to me of 'I think you're a baddy' which is in and of itself kind of pointed and so when she's interacting with people (including me) it frequently feels like she's scum reading them and then those interactions go nowhere because she likes to jump around and poke her nose into everything so that tone and lack of followup always kind of feels opportunistic to me.
I guess I just don't want people to assume I'm attacking someone just by asking them questions. It's hard for me to sort people without getting into their brain and the best way for me to do that is have them elaborate on a thought process or a stance
I don't disagree with this assessment of how Black can come across, like she's flinging accusations all over, particularly when town. Even though Shea and Black were both scum when making this description. :twisted:

Therefore, I suggest
Gotta Push 'Em All!
as a title for Black. I think the implication works at least as well for when she's scum. ;)

Aureal just won this thread (Nth)

I really love the pokemon allusion and it does describe her playstyle pretty accurately

I have used that description of black twice now, both times I was scum.

I do think its accurate though.

This thread is awesome. I like all of the titles suggested for me. Zelda is one of my fav franchises so Twilight Princess is fire. Everyone knows I love Pokemon and I also have a tendency to not trust anyone, so Gotta Push Em All is fantastic as well

I agree that Scum Queen would be more suitable for someone like Titus or LLD. There are MANY people that are much better at scum than I am. It's a funny joke though and I remember yelling I AM THE NEWBIE SCUM QUEEN at the end of my third scum win :lol:

I'm definitely not the Queen but I love the nickname and will continue to use it

Thank you all for the dope suggestions! I love y'all
I scumread Alianna.

I believe the current paradigm is that the wishes of the user are taken into account.

I think Alianna deserves a title

The three things that come to mind are

1) her ability to mod and co-mod games. I think she's one of the best on the site at running games. Super active, organized, everything is neat and pretty

2) I townread Alianna.

3) Post 1,000 collection

I'm not sure if I'm good at coming up with clever title names but I'll give it a shot

For #1, maybe
Good in Moderation


For #2, I like
I'm Town
or even simply
I townread Alianna


For #3, maybe
1000 Ways to Die
or
Millennium Collector
I scumread Alianna.

I suggested

Though good in moderation is very punny

I think at this point,
48 hours
for...Black's pick of the litter for titles.

I'd appreciate better support for Twilight Princess, but won't veto it as included in the list. So, final chance to speak support/objections to various options:

(expired on 2024-01-07 17:35:29)

Speak now or forever hold your peace.

(I'll be late on the title tho, busy Sunday.)

This is the one I like most. I think it's the one which captures the personality quirk while also getting the mod, my only concern is it might still be a bit too generic.

It seems like there's way more support for
Gotta Push 'Em All!
and I do really like it, so I think we should go with that :]
