Mish Mash Mod = MMM = 3000

Could be a perm title for whoever has the post.

I had the same exact thought. Unfortunately there isn't..

Maybe Nerd Dime Hill.

Anyway

I suggest

Vanilla Town?

Oversoul, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but I don't get your post either way.

I'm not a fan of Vamilla Townie. I don't think it's particularly funny, and I think it's moved away from why GreyICE is getting the title. I also kind of hate turning Miller into Milla.

I'm not happy with it contravening a ban in any way. And I certainly won't be awarding anything while the ban is in place. I don't mind (and encourage) you guys discussing it until then, but it banned members don't get titles.

I disagree with all of the above.

At first the miller thing was cute, but now it seems stale. The titles being suggested for it aren't good at all.
I'll explain it to you. You have to get someone else to understand it for you.

Think about it Amrun. Other than the fact that Boy Who Cried doesn't actually apply here, think about it. It's wordy. It's not funny.

I THINK IT IS OKAY

But on second thought, I should probably morally object because of the linguicism against wolves... Blegh.

I think this is what he's referring to: http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.ph ... 5#p3998625

In post 132, SleepyKrew wrote:I still think Vamilla Townie > all of those.

I have to agree with SK here. Two of Zor's suggested titles, the first and last, are terribly punny (and no, I'm not using punny as a pun for funny+pun)... "I was framed!" is disingenuous at best... and Hidden Agenda is totally nebulous and completely loses the original reason for the title nomination, which seems to be Zor's main complaint anyway.

On the other hand,
Vamilla Townie
fits all the bills. It doesn't lose the original purpose (hidden miller) in the least, in fact it exemplifies it.

Though I too feel a little :? at the shortening of miller to -milla, we could do far worse. The alternative of Vamiller Townie is much more unwieldy, and loses the "hidden" thing entirely, whereas Vamilla is likely to be missed as the M could easily be mistaken for an N if you're not paying attention or not "in the know." And that's half the fun, right?

Spoiler: Other shite
I wonder what Steve Miller thinks of all this... seeing his name all over the place relating to mafia must be a kick! :P

(a bit of curiosity about role names --and some creative Google search terms-- will get you far in life, young grasshopper!)


According to that page Millers aren't *supposed* to be told they're millers, otherwise it ruins the surprise. I like how they thought of a common breaking strategy (because yeah, claiming Miller really seems to work) and worked to avoid that in the design of the role. How come it's different here? I think it should be hidden from Millers that they're Millers, like this page states.

I'm sick of the "GreyICE says faggot a lot" jokes. I don't like it, I think it's a terrible thing to put in a title, and it actually got close to me shutting down all GreyICE titles for being a shitposter. Please, keep it out of the thread, I'm sick of deleting posts, I'm sick of reports.

I've done it before. I don't like doing it because in the end titles are Funtimes. I am pretty forgiving, and always spell out a few chances for people, depending on how they display themselves.
