What effects do avatars have on you?

[Goatrevolt]

a. Hmm..in the one game I was in with you where I was town, I can't honestly say exactly what extent your avatar had in my perception of you. I will say that I was not suspicious of you at all until you attacked me.
b. It's a power role. Night kill, ahoy!
c. Worth Protecting, obviously
d. The halo means you are clearly innocent, and should not be investigated!
e. Although I might be interested in seeing what you are up to, nonetheless
f. Worth Watching.

I tend to view people with avatars with lots of motion, like mole, newer, so at the same time weaker. This is just from the fact that most people who have played for a while tend to know that avatars with lots of motion tend to be annoying, combine that with the fact that on average a new player is weaker then an experianced one, and motion avatars come off as weak players to me.

Same.

I think Llama's current avatar is good. It gives off the impression of confidence.

Claus's avatar seems like it would be a good source for a random vote. (Vote Claus. Your avatar is scary as hell, hence I have proven without a doubt you are scum...). I don't know how it would affect me at later stages of the game.

[Goatrevolt]

unrelated, but I wonder if anyone actually knows what my avatar is from.

[Goatrevolt]

a magic the gathering card, goat?

That is correct.

I got a feeling Shaft.ed is a burly old guy and so is goat revolt.

Damn, I need to tone down my "burly old man" routine. I'm 22 years old...

Alduskkel's makes me think scum, because it reminds me of phoebus', who was scum in one of my first games on this site.

Goatrevolt's avatar:



A goat, revolting.


What I actually see in my mind:



A slightly retarded but happy toad in a bow tie.

Hahahaha.

[Goatrevolt]

I always think of Flay as that old man.

And what...apparently thinking my avatar is a frog is a more widespread problem than earlier imagined. I find that hilarious.

[Goatrevolt]

I can't even see it as a frog, despite being told it's a frog or squinting or anything. All I've ever seen is a goat with some guys trying to restrain him

Yeah, me too, which is why I find it entertaining that so many people view it as a frog. A frog of all things...

[Goatrevolt]

Meh, I still can't see it. I think I've just conditioned my mind to see a goat being restrained by 3 men. How silly of me.

[Goatrevolt]

I've decided to make a new account. I think I like frogs better.

I can see the frog in your avatar!

Still can't see the frog in mine..
