Don't care for the context, but then this is one of the eternal truths.
Wow, if thats true I need to increase my average post quality.
Thanks Andy, you said exactly what I was thinking. My title is special to me, because it goes back onto sometting that was not only hilariously stupid, but represents my playstyle at the time. I'm sure I would feel much less so if it were decided I should get one then they came up with
something.
FUNNY STORY ABOUT THAT
Your title is "special to you", yet when nominated for it at first you refused to take it saying it "wasn't truly representative of you" or some such bullshit. I then used this opportunity to go overboard in trying to get you to
, which I knew would make a connection with
someone
and eventually get pushed through as a title for me. I figured I could then make sure that the story didn't get propagated around the site, thus making it only relevant to people who were there at the time. I would then be able to use this title to my advantage whenever someone brought up my own playstyle amongst new people - people who were around when the title was passed would already know my meta - thus giving me a solid meta even amongst new people, thus allowing me to use the meta excuse without ever invoking the meta excuse.
My point being that people who hound for titles have no clue of how to do so.
The other important thing I must bring up; who cares if a bunch of terrible title proposals get through? I gave up on stressing myself out over that long ago. Titles are, in case you didn't notice, completely freaking trivial and arbitrary. I've found this out through the social engineering experiment above. Who honestly gives a shit if one line of text beneath someone's screenname on a forum on the internet is different, anyways?
