Sarc's proposed title is horrible.
We can think of a much better title for Guardian, I'm sure of it.
And finally, Lawrence's title is based on a one-off conversation. I don't see why it's title-worthy.

What about for Guardian - "Not Lynched. Mislynched."
Or simply "Mislynched"

Guardian's is good. Claus' is sorta "meh". Sarc's is lame. Where does Lawrence's come from again?
I'm not personally a fan of Self-Stoofer for Mr. Stoofer. Maybe something about how his mafia games always seem to have some sort of twist?

Lawrencelot's comes from the vacuum thread in GD. It was an interesting thread, but I'm not sure if it warrants the title (and it would be pronounced poorly in Dutch anyway >.>). I don't like Sarcy's. Not huge fan of Claus's or Guardian's.

I like Guardian's a lot. Don't like anyone else's, really. Claus' would be more apropos if he actually made lists a lot when he posted.

I don't like guardian's. It's based on something he did in one game, that wasn't particularly outlandish or anything.

Alternatively, "Tough Love" or "Love Hurts".

Well, I don't find it particularly amusing, and I don't think crosskilling is that rare an accomplishment. It happens pretty regularly. I think there are a lot of things that stand out about you as a player, and that ain't any of them. That you crosskilled K9 in one game doesn't come to mind when i think of you.
'Too active' for instance, would fit you a lot better, imho, as would the proposed 'mislynched' or 'not a tracker.'

He replaced into a game and made exactly one post in the game, ending it. His single post hammered an opposing scum, and his night move killed the other opposing scum.
His one post yielded two dead scum from an opposing mafia. This wasn't part of an endgame, it was day 2!
One post killed two scum. At that rate my 1900 posts could be responsible for 3800 scum deaths, instead of 9.
