Dance of the Title Fairy: ORCA's Greatest Hits

That's almost funny.

I want to open up discussion on my title. I haven't been heavily involved in the wiki for years... does it still suit? I'm not fishing for a new one, just curious about the current, for now.

Vamilla Ice is weak, actually. It's two puns jammed together (one a name pun, no less) AND ignores the 'Hidden' part Oman actually liked.

Secret Lover

is in my head for some reason, but that's the wrong role.

Skrull

?

Mr. Flay · Post Post #118 (isolation #3) » Wed Apr 25, 2012 7:35 am

Vamilla Townie is a lot less bad, definitely.

Umbrage: no.

I agree with SKrew, actually. Traditionally (but not prehistorically) the titlee gets veto and sometimes tiebreaker power... that's it. Suggestions are for others to do.

NS: c is indeed different, but that's not what's going on here.

No Cure For Rabies is the best of a bad lot, but that isn't saying much.

I think we should come back to kuribo later. We're well into forcing territory by now.

I'm against the title in general, but if it's really that memorable, something like "Finder of the U-Spot" might balance subtlety and humor better.

I'm just now reading the last four pages of shitstorm. It's been a busy week.

scumchat titles have gotten through before. They have also gotten pushback before. Like so many things, it's situational. There has been no Skittles Ruling on meet-related titles, despite what Reck thinks.

are you just incapable of reading comprehension or are you just being overly facetious when you imply I've stated I think the admins have made a ruling on meet-related titles

ok... emphasis mine:

Back on topic, I think we liked constant vigilance but were just divided on capitalization. Oman can probably just declare one option best (we can also shrink font size a bit if ALLCAPS is gonna be too much).

Dr. Feelgood is both solid and unique. Well played, Reck.

Mr. Flay · Post Post #1164 (isolation #27) » Fri Oct 12, 2012 7:22 am

I think saying Om has "forced it down your throat at every opportunity" is overstating your case just a LITTLE, flameaxe.

He's neither the first not the last to participate in their own title discussion with a counteroffer.

Mr. Flay · Post Post #1170 (isolation #28) » Fri Oct 12, 2012 8:48 am

Yeah, I doubt the "goddamnit" thing is going to be sustained. Which is not an absolute bar to a title obviously, but gives me extra pause when the shtick is being mostly propagated by people other than the proposed recipient.

Mr. Flay · Thu Oct 18, 2012 12:18 pm

Crap might be lowered, but good stuff would certainly be harmed. Having to hold/remember all the title suggestions will decrease the rate of nominations, which is NOT what we need right now (we just need less crap mixed in).

Having nominations go by PM/form to the Title Fairy, who then puts them forward for comment every so often, might work, however. It's a pretty big shift though.
