Title Fairy: Out With The Orca, In With The Moogle

[shaft.ed]

Good going Oman!

Also is bad play as SK now a prerequisite for Title Fairy?

[shaft.ed]

I blame the Orca-Tiger alliance.

Besides, Orcas are so 2009. 2010 is all about the anteater.

hells yeah

[shaft.ed]

^wants a title

[shaft.ed]

I thought we settle on

Lesbo Cougar Tentacled Bean Stalker Wasp

or

Anything for Art

[shaft.ed]

Anything For Art, But Won't Do That?

hahah. I don't know if it's a good title but it's funny as hell

[shaft.ed]

I didn't like it when DGB had her title changed the last time. I think updating it would be nice. But there are too many good options for her.

I still like the Meatloaf pun the best of what's been suggested.

[shaft.ed]

I am certainly not spamming in here. Most of my actual spam tends to come in response to accusations of spamming. So there you go.

stop spamming


Also I don't get Korts' title, and if he doesn't want it why argue with him about it? ABUSE OF POWER!

[shaft.ed]

The "we are not going to remember this in two weeks" thing applies.

I've been thinking it was amusing that sudo was still best newbie about six months ago, so I don't really agree with this, tbh. Maybe I'm alone there though.

no you're not

[shaft.ed]

Sudo_Nym could be:

Forever Young

I prefer this to all the username puns, actually.

i'd support this version if I didn't loathe Rod Stewart

[shaft.ed]

So you spam for a high post count, and to make it hard for people to iso you?

Well, after Ythan explained himself, I find his playstyle antitown.

That might be a side-effect, but that's blatantly not what he was claiming to go for. Posting when you have something new to add is a good ideal.

EDIT: Having said that, this is kind of off-topic. (I've decided that I like Oman's regime so much that I'm going to brown-nose the shit out of it.)

You've never played with him. He does have some good posts, but about a third of Ythan's posts are saying that he's not spamming.

That was 109 because some players wouldn't quit whining and whining about it. But ongoing game.

stop spamming

[shaft.ed]

"Best Newbie Forever"?

or just BNF instead of BFF?

Don't like the camn thing, as others have said not strong.

Not digging the Ythan titles either.

[shaft.ed]

To be fair I've never played with Ythan, so all I know of him is from his GD persona. Son of Ythill actually makes more sense to me than any of the other titles proposed.

[shaft.ed]

Was there ever any more to that than the shared Yth?

The shared Y chromosome maybe?

[shaft.ed]

He isn't the first person who's done this.

Even if you do use that line, I'm not really a fan of that specific title. Dunno.

did you read the title in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman?

[shaft.ed]

But a title should come naturally. This blatantly doesnt, all the titles thus far are almost hitting "its smells like shite but is it?" on the crap-o-meter.

I disagree. I think that the reasoning behind this title came very naturally. Now we're just trying to find the best words to communicate that reason. In fact, I think if this sort of thing happened more, we wouldn't have so many obscure titles.

[shaft.ed]

I'ma let you finish?

[shaft.ed]

And another thing!

Like Columbo?

[shaft.ed]

Nominate The Fonz for "I <3 policy lynching."

Yes, I realize that is in his sig. But it's probably the thing he's best known for as a mafia player, and giving it to him as a title can let him free up his sig for other things.

where's the name pun?

[shaft.ed]

so yeah...ani needs to be lynched in all of his current games

[shaft.ed]

Shaft.ed needs to be lynched in any games he's sharing with ani.

i haven't played mafia in many months

[shaft.ed]

can we nominate everyone for ignore the troll?

[shaft.ed]

I actually really like "I'm bi, dammit." for reck.

This. Heteroflexible just lacks something.

Well heteroflexible was funny if you were under the impression that reck was hetero.

I still think you can do better than I'm bi damnit

[shaft.ed]

perhaps a subtle reference to the naughty reading of Mafiascum could be used for recks title?

[shaft.ed]

no idea

Manscum
Friendscum
Hemademescum

[shaft.ed]

I'd also have to check re:"all ages" on that particular title if it went through. Just lettin' y'all know.

That's why I was shooting for subtle

[shaft.ed]

but thats more unsatiably horny. Doesn't that match tajo more?

[shaft.ed]

I prefer

Best Newbie since 2007

for Sudo

[shaft.ed]

@shaft.ed: what is the reasoning behind newbie since 2007? I suggested newbie since 2008 because that is when he received the best newbie title, implying that he was not a newbie (but rather townsperson, then goon, then mafia scum) in the year he joined.

but he was nominated for best Newbie based on his 2007 play. So he was the best newbie of the year 2007, and he had been labeled as such until now. That's about it. Also it looks more dramatic that way .

[shaft.ed]

that was one crazy seizure.

why not hatersgonnahate.gif ?

[shaft.ed]

Assassins in the...
oh wait nevermind

two lines

[shaft.ed]

Will that fit in a single line? Do you know the character limit for single line titles btw?

I prefer the two lines because it adds to the pause. I like the title itself because it isn't a pun, or related to a user name but its still funny and gets the point across.

[shaft.ed]

Can we do multi-line titles?

You're the decider, there is no 'we'

Seriously, I don't know. But I thought I remembered one or two of them.

[shaft.ed]

Goon in the Palace.

If it can only be one line, I like this

[shaft.ed]

usually once or twice a year about the time that scummy awards get updated

[shaft.ed]

killah nine was a better gimmick IMHO

[shaft.ed]

this thread needs more zoraster titulation

[shaft.ed]

Goon in the Palace.

If it can only be one line, I like this

so two lines doesn't work then

[shaft.ed]

meh, the Premature Ejaculation puns feel a lot more forced to me

[shaft.ed]

Most role PM misreads don't end the game and autolose for you.

I lost a game partially because of a role PM misread. But it wasnt anway near as comparable to this game...Yeah I don't know why I'm posting here.

[shaft.ed]

Speaking of Abuse of Power

zoraster gets Premature Assassination

I think we had plenty of discussion and it's a good title too. Well done all that contributed.

you should have abused more power

[shaft.ed]

Speaking of Abuse of Power

zoraster gets Premature Assassination

I think we had plenty of discussion and it's a good title too. Well done all that contributed.

So, did I really just see Oman approve a title based on a bad pun?

Man, that sucks.

You used to stand for something, bro.

Now, you've sold out just like the rest of them.

This
also nominate The Fonz for

Aaaaaayyyy

or maybe

Aaaaayyyyy

[shaft.ed]

at least it wasn't Cinderfella

[shaft.ed]

Cinderfella seems to be getting a pretty positive response. Going to call on the dissenters now to have their say. Anyone not into this, in a big way?

creepy old autophage

doesn't fit?

[shaft.ed]

a title isn't an abbreviated description of a user

[shaft.ed]

I really dont understand why the events in question would impact the previous noms. It's not like Fate behaved in any way different from normal in said game.

[shaft.ed]

What I don't like is that

the ani/CSL/Haylen type of thinking

is gaining a louder voice on MS.

Not to butt in or anything, but what is this?

Butting in, I think he's referring to the "well XXXX has been around longer and is cooler, so why shouldn't they get a title?"

I'll reiterate my belief titles are an organic process. They just happen. (unless you drink ovaltine)

[shaft.ed]

Nominate Brandi for a title for her hard work with peoples avatar

She needs something awesome. Cuz shes done an excellent job with her artwork and has not asked for anything in return. This may not be much, but it is something that I think she deserves. I didn't have a really good idea, was hoping someone else would.

we've been over this

[shaft.ed]

I have a really, terrible, probably inappropriate suggestion for Brandi:

Get Off My Ass!

needs a touch of spanking machine

[shaft.ed]

i think you have the wrong Fate

[shaft.ed]

Nominate ZONEACE for

There's no † in ZONEFACE

[shaft.ed]

Nominate ZONEACE for

There's no † in ZONEFACE

why is everyone trying to oppress the gays?

[shaft.ed]

The saddest part is that

wanting

to be a VI and being super proud of it doesn't make him stand out.

^This

I wonder if they realized that this is pretty much a monthly to bimonthly occurance, would they feel so special about themselve?

[shaft.ed]

If Brandi doesn't mind, I would like to nominate her for

has been envied.

, mainly for the series of posts that start with this post and end with this "reveal". It is entirely open for discussion though.

Brandi, how do you feel about this title? How does everyone else feel about it?

It's lame.

^Brandi alt

[shaft.ed]

there are too many apostrophes

[shaft.ed]

Too many apostrophes *

rabble rabble

*

Impin Aint Easy

looks better IMHO

[shaft.ed]

you forgot to mention that he's a gay man with an axe


Gurgi, you need to be more firm about getting your title changed

[shaft.ed]

I thought Hoopla was the most recent site bug title and her title is basically just the error no?

[shaft.ed]

This is still very much on the table.

wow thats a big cock

[shaft.ed]

I title based on three games doesn't really seem like it has staying power to me.

*shrug*

My title is based off a single game from 2007. I think

Hot Streak

has merit to it, personally.

I agree. Shea do you remember your brother's title

or what about Oman's title?

[shaft.ed]

Nominate Izzy for:

I AM NOT A LESBIAN

ON FIRE GOD

DAMMIT

Second.

accurated

[shaft.ed]

yay! attention whore gets attention. People belittle them to feel better about themselves. And so it goes...

The circle of life

[shaft.ed]

Nominate Oman for Oh Man

cause every time we nominate a pun he shoots it down and I think "Oh man"

[shaft.ed]

can people not read jokes anymore?

[shaft.ed]

I'm trying to walk this tightrope of Nominating RC for "Asstoot" and never Nom'ing him. Hrm.

it's actually quite a good title if he would take it

[shaft.ed]

Nominate

ReaperCharlie for asstoot

I think this fits his GD persona well and the PM exchange with Ythan was hilarious. The title makes me laugh and thus I think it's a good match. Could be altered to astoot to be more "acceptable"

*Disclaimer: I haven't played a game in ages and never one with RC so this may be totally unrelated to his mafia play.

[shaft.ed]

seconded

:hifive:

that avie works way better than the old one

[shaft.ed]

Please tell me you're not actually suggesting you should get the title Dumbledore just because you used the safeclaim I gave you in a Harry Potter game. Please tell me there's more to it than that.

It'd be surprising if it WASN'T only because of that.

^this guy is quite asstoot^

[shaft.ed]

Still think "GD is my wingman" is good for Reck, even though it's technically not true any more. If anything, it should be even more nostalgic now, because it hearkens to times past, and the way things used to be, and all that. Should make Reck feel even more like he belongs. Changing it to 62 or any derivation vice GD will just seem tacked-on and lame.

This is a very asstoot observation. I agree 100%.

[shaft.ed]

Reck's Title isn't changing. Apart from the name being in flux such that two weeks from now it may have a different number, it's just a pointless change.

Titles are less about the words than the spirit, dudes.

You're game where you were a NK immune miller vig is over. I demand Oman's title!!

[shaft.ed]

Nah, I don't like asstoot. f*** you guys

/discussion

--

The Nominee for the title gets final Say.

funny story, the current Title Fairy didn't accept his title until weeks of encouraging by other members that it was the right thing to do. I think RC is asstoot enough to eventually see the light and embrace his epic title.

[shaft.ed]

I'm serious, it's a bad title.

^not very asstoot^

[shaft.ed]

party pooper

[shaft.ed]

Don't clutter this forum with petty shit.

...must...resist...

[shaft.ed]

Nominate gandalf5166 for

Snow

or

Liquid Snow

Nominate gandalf5166 for

Wetback

.

That's Tajo's title if it's anyones

[shaft.ed]

Believes in Frosty

?

[shaft.ed]

i laughed

[shaft.ed]

Vagueries don't make the title better IMO.

He's Snow Biologist

?

^best thus far

[shaft.ed]

I thought it was going to reference Hogan's Heroes before I read the title. Seems too stretchy to me

also

[shaft.ed]

You would think that four or five posts would be sufficient for you to register your dislike of the title. But it's cool, keep going. Everyone is listening.

Welcome to the haystack

[shaft.ed]

for the record, this is Hulk Hogan's catchphrase apparently

Whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on you

But I think something like

Andre let me win

would have been more appropriate

[shaft.ed]

Lol then I think that settles that.

How long did it take you to do those colors and was it worth it considering you apparently should be writing your thesis?

It's well know that writing a thesis requires minimum 1,000 hours of procrastination.

[shaft.ed]

Nominate Porochaz for Internet Hate Machine

Obvious reasons are indeed obvious to anyone who has read his recent posts.

No thank you. Also if you don't go write your thesis you will be retitled to

Graduate Student Paragon

[shaft.ed]

this thread needs a large dosage of abuse of power

[shaft.ed]

Nominate two week hiatus for this thread

because people posting in it aren't doing it right
