This is why we can't have nice things.
I feel like the name needs to reflect our lack of nice things.

You may make suggestions for titles for people other than yourself here. You should not nominate yourself for a title. A title nomination will generally be ignored for a user with less than X posts in Mafia games (X is currently 100, but this may change). Reaching this number of posts does not entitle you to a custom title - users will nominate you for a title when something noteworthy warrants it.
Just wait and things will come. Though at this rate I'll be noming you for a title involving pancakes and/or Jedi mastery.

I on the other hand do not rescind my nomination, also I think this is a topic worthy of discussion in MD but not sure if it's worth having it as it's not our opinions but Oman's that matter in this issue.

Oman wrote:I'm really not a fan.
Perhaps it would be easier to understand my objection if I explained my position in an open letter to you all:
The whole problem I had with username/avatar puns was that it was repeating information unnecessarily and making for clutter. We get used to titles we see every day, but start adding caps, colours, and italics, and suddnely these are very eye catching. From a visual perspective, clutter is not a good thing, and the more "Mafia Scum"s, the more flow. My goal in what will be a short reign as Title Fairy, before I am usurped and my head thrust upon a pike (or I do the above to mith and own the site), is to balance the uniqueness of scummers, the fun we have, and the nostalgia titles can give, against the breaking of flow, clutter, and general awkwardness of unique titles. Take a look at most sites that let users set their own titles and someone will have "MAYOR OF AWESOMENESS ZONE" or something chronically mispelled. Hell, look at location, people can't even take that seriously (Ani has "standing right behind you" for example).
So while it seems like I'm being ultimate killjoy sometimes, I think that refusing some titles that just aren't mature or just suck is one of the things that makes mafiascum great. As a community we are more mature, and more professional than most (Guys pt 2 excluded, in fact, let's just disregard Reck on that), and I think this is part of that. So I'm going to stand up for my standards as written, with mith as the authorisation that my rules are in accordance with his idea of the site's direction and culture. The moment that I fall outside of culture, I expect him to pick me up, as I do when the titles fall outside culture.
To be honest, I have a really easy job, because you guys are high-quality and self-policing. I really thank you for that, and I have nothing wrong with suggestions coming forward and being worked on. The major thing that I want you to take away is that I encourage nominations and to work on a title in-thread, and I don't want anyone to take rejection personally.
This is why Oman is Title Fairy.
Anyways, I really am against all the noms for the people who go ALL CAPS IN EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE IN ORDER TO GET ATTENTION FROM OTHER PLAYERS. Seriously, its annoying. It leads to bad habits. It encourages other players to do the same. It isn't very civil. And it distracts from the game an leads to arguments and quarrels that usually have nothing to do with the game that they are in.
TAKE IT TO MD.

I keep seeing the objection being raised "That's not rewarding good play", I think you people need to go back and read the existing titles. Titles have never been about rewarding good play they have been about memorable events and/or play styles, there is already quite a precedent for titles for
bad
questionable play established.

Though I don't support a player getting a title for something like this, at least make the title suggestions decent.
ISO Immune is way too obvious, a title playing off the inability to isolate them would be better rather then just flat out stating it.
Something along the lines of
No I in team
,
Never alone
or
In context
maybe?

First off as an aside I'm really not liking the mindset the TFThread has gotten in the past bit and secondly at least try to put some subtlety into it; by which I mean something along the lines of
