Actually fuck it. I'll do it anyway.
Nominate Wisdom for the title of "Of The One"
.

Wisdom Of The One is a relatively-common term, usually used to refer to a system similar to Wisdom Of The Mod. (There are some technicalities which keep the two from being total synonyms, but they are pretty similar terms all the same. Technical definitions given here.) However, Wisdom Of The One in this case also applies to Wisdom as a mafia player. In my experience with him, Wisdom tends to--for better or for worse--place a disproportionately high level of trust in his own base instincts. He basically trusts his own gut, his own reads, to have a higher level of accuracy than those of others.

Thus...Wisdom Of The One: "I know best", but not with a connotation of negativity. It's just a part of him.

Edit:
And actually. I somehow AM the first person to suggest this. I searched Chevre's/SKrew's/Buttonmen's threads and nobody suggested this as a title for him. Wisdom got nominated FOR titles, but not THIS title. I really think this one's actually a good one though. It's not hard to understand; it's appropriate to him; it doesn't carry negative connotations. What more can you ask for?

I worry I'd end up regretting this title like I regret Accountant's title. The key thing to keep in mind when you nom and nth titles like these is that you shouldn't consider only if it
fits
the person but also if you
value
the referred aspect of the person, at least being entertained by it. I want to be more careful with this principle from here out.

Survivor is weird especially since it's a huge thing in the Large Social forum. Having it be a title people achieve upon posts just seems awkward. Especially with the few Survivor themed titles people have been given over the years.

#rd Of the One


Wisdom wouldn't be the same without his attitude, and I feel like when I'm played with him, I have enjoyed that aspect, even if it does get grating.

Nth
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.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?
