I like this because it's not just the scumstorm thing. The first game I played with him he mentioned something about managing and/or owning a Papa Johns, and for some reason that stuck in my head.

Nominate Vi for the title of
The Librarian
For his/her encyclopedic knowledge of games, upkeep of the wiki, and lovably fussy attitude.
I like it better than Professor Paragon (his current title) because I think it better captures the "Vi-ness" of Vi. Professor Paragon has always seemed a little weak to me, being almost a lazy attempt to make his scummies into a title. Plus, while Professor somewhat fits Vi given his hard work on various parts of the game, Paragon doesn't really fit him so well.
Anyway, I think The Librarian is a better title for him. Funnier and more accurate.

I don't really like his title now, either and I like the theme of this title nomination. Either The Librarian or something along the lines of Encyclopedia Mafiatica for the same reasons. :p

No, etc. (it's tacky and it's already something that's evident if you read Vi's posts)
I like the nom's though; Encyclopedia Mafiatica is indeed quite good imo.

Why? I don't believe he's ever claimed to be male or female. I don't think one is more obvious than the other.

Vi is genderqueer.
Seriously, though. Vi is a graduate student (maybe full PhD now, not sure) who has gone out of their way to specifically selected a gender neutral name and undertake a gender neutral persona. If we had to adhere to a clear cut sexual dichotomy, I would guess they are female, since males on the internet rarely have a reason to mask their gender preference, but Vi also has a number of nerd-related interests and is studying an area genrally dominated by males, making the probability they are female low. Thus, Vi's familiarity with academia and intense devotion to retaining a neutral gender identity leads me to beleive they fall outside of the heteronormative gender binary and identify as something other than "male" or "female."
Or they could just be someone playing a really, really long troll. In which case, cool - queer theorists around the world hate you. GTFO and don't ruin my research.

How exactly do they plan on getting in Vi's pants, unless they can physically pass through the Internets.
