wasn't my intention. I understand discussion is fine, but I also think this period of time is at least partially for my input.

but I do think its amusing that the people who are now "discussing" after a decision was made are the same people who were trying to shout down people who were attempting to express that they supported the title and why after it was rejected, saying it was "disrespectful" to the title fairy.

Title: {Top, Tier} and variations
Fairy Opinion: I'm not really familiar with Ranger, but I like this title! It's pretty signature and representative of her reads, and if they are truly good reads, then it's a very worthy and fitting title. I like it with the brackets because that makes it more unique. I'm accepting {Top, Tier}.
I have been thinking about this title because I really like it and I feel as though the comma feels kind of awkward.

I think {Top Tier} is better then {Top, Tier} not sure what other people think
I do like it without the comma better, but I must insist that the brackets be there.

The brackets are there, nobody is complaining about those. As somebody that hasn't played with ranger, I believe the comma is however better as without it I don't really see the connection to the reads list.

shea do you not see how you posting in the thread about you being moved to tears could be seen as you campaigning for the title after it was rejected

Let's solve every problem at once and put fancy parentheses brackets around Shea. Everyone happy?

IDK why people think Shea is a bad title for Shea. It's fine. Not winning for creativity, but it's better than w/e the fuck Flameaxe's old title is.

Each tier in Ranger's read lists don't necessarily have more then 1 person in it. I think the brackets are what defines Ranger's read lists and her unique style not the commas.

I feel like {Top Tier} represents how Ranger is top tier while also showcasing her iconic play style (or at least iconic to the people who have played with her). By adding the comma it just becomes awkward to read since Top Tier is an alliteration and pausing while reading an alliteration ruins it making Top, Tier feel more like filler words to compliment the squiggly brackets.

i think the comma gives it character. it makes a bit clunky but it also makes it really really obvious what it refers to and doesn't seem like a generic "this person is good" title.

Sure. If you're ignoring for the fact that I posted in the thread saying I respected chevres decision. Sure, if you ignore the fact that I was thanking people personally. Sure, if you ignore the fact that I was defending the people from being attacked for being disrespectful and not even talking about the title. Sure, if you ignore the fact that I messaged chevre privately to tell him he was doing a great job and how I respected his decision. Sure, if you ignore the fact that I left the thread after that and didn't in any way lobby chevre for the title or post in the thread asking for it.

People can see things in whatever they want to if they want to ignore all context.

I think the brackets take care of that though.

I think the comma is essential for it to follow the format of Raner's readslists of you're going to have 2 words on the brackets
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

you said you were moved to tears, deeply upset by the decision, that everything chev said was wrong and that he has a wrong perspective on the situation

That is campaigning. Like, straight up campaigning without directly begging.

also, yeah, why have so much controversy over a title when it's already accepted? I don't care if he was campaigning or any of that shit because it's not my job to care, and I only like the title. It's already accepted, and I don't have any direct qualms with it. ???

What if we did it as a two liner?

{Tier}


Would that be doable?
