Nominate TraceyLyn11 for

with an *e*

.

I'm an idiot.
Please give a stupid guy like me some context.

You aren't dumb.

As DMS said, it is partially for her name.

She loves to beat the crap out of anyone who spells it wrong because it is an unusual spelling of the name.

Thor calls her Tracey with an *e*. Just to emphasize to her that he spells it right.

It is kinda a username thing, and I can understand where that could go wrong. But I think its a big enough trait to be notable. Its got personality in it too.

And if you know Tracey, she's quite a cool gal, and a nice Mafia player as well.

[Robocopter87]

I think there's a better title for Tracey sometime down the line that we can throw this 'e' business into as well.

Yeah I think I agree with this the most.

Nominate: Klick for

Born Again

Explain it to me.

I just realized I never explained this to you, TBM. I'm sorry.

Klick, a.k.a. Kondi2424 used to be a chronic lurker and flaker that never seemed to finish a game unless it was a scum game and even sometimes he wouldn't finish those. Then, over the summer this past year something happened and Kondi stopped replacing out.

Then he started playing on Klick to try out a new name for himself and he is quickly rising as one of the better scum players on the site (in my opinion) (fucking autocorrect).

It is quite amazing how he can go from a player that is very likely to be placed on blacklists for his inactivity to being a player that actually plays very well. I have seen a common statement pop up these past few months "I do not think we should be suggesting titles that encourage bad behavior". This title goes directly against that in a way that I think is simply wonderful for the community as a whole. Kondi's "resurrection" is exactly the type of behavior that I think we should be encouraging.

Born again obviously does not have to be the title that he gets and I am sure there are much better ones out there that potentially reflect his personality or his play, but it is succinct without getting dramatic and I like that.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I'm not entirely sure that he was "born again".

What I think is that it appears that way because he stopped joining so many games so he wouldn't flake out as much.

He has improved, and for that I do think he has done a great job. Yes there are outliers to that statement but overall Kondi is way better now.

I don't think the improvement was more significant than others improvements.

In fact, we have a scummy award for this same type of improvement. If you go in there and look at these nominated players you get the same stories as Kondi but the only difference to these stories is that Kondi made an alt and these players kept their account. I remember when Klick started coming up, he replaced into one of my games and one of the first PMs I received was "I'm Kondi".

Do I think that Kondi should not get a title? No. Do I think that Kondi's situation is significant enough to receive a title? No.

He went from a bad inactive player to a different account where he is averagely more active and had a few good games but still has his days. It just isn't enough to get a title from going from Zero to Hero.

And if Klick does get a title, it should be

Zero to Hero

or something similar. Kondi 2.0 or variants thereof are pretty bad. Having Kondi's name in the title is bad bad bad.

[Robocopter87]

Best one with kondi in it so far Umbrage, but kondi in the title is bad bad bad still.

[Robocopter87]

Or we could just not give him a title right now

[Robocopter87]

Nominate TBM for

Man of the Van

which is a play off of "Man of the Cloth" but with the obvious van pun thrown in.

A title like

Van Punderson

or

Van Punman

would also be cool... they remind me of Van Henderson or Van Halen.

Don't fight it TBM.

Or even,

's totally legitimate van

[Robocopter87]

Nominate The Fonz for

I Make This Look Easy

. I've always admired his skill/cool, and not just because of the username (though it helps).

Nth

nomination or variations.

I'm actually quite surprised he didn't already have one.

crypto if you were nominated for a title that you liked would you take it?

Like

nite

[Robocopter87]

I was joking about the Crypto title, back to Fonz.

[Robocopter87]

I finished reading Hunger Games yesterday

Casual.

Also the nomination isn't very good.

Either we should focus on a specific characteristic that we all know Korts to have (that isn't offensive) or just give up and stop thinking about random things. Because that was fitting trying to fit a person to the title. Not the other way around.

[Robocopter87]

How about

Just Stop

[Robocopter87]

I feel as though we are attempting to think up names for MS's more notorious members.

Shouldn't we be focusing on players that are known for their Mafia abilities or their dedication to the site? I mean, a few quirky people here and there that we all love, but I really don't think that titling Umbrage and CooLDoG and the like will do anything but encourage.

[Robocopter87]

Survey says is the best of the three.

Nominate callforjudgement for

Mastermind

,

The Brains

,

Criminal Mastermind

or something of the like due to his very very talented skills at designing and balancing setups. It seems whenever I see him hes giving insightful viewpoints into peoples ideas. I'm also pretty sure he came up with a program for VCs or something like that?

I've modded over Prohawk and he definitely has potential, but a title is for something that really defines a player as unique to the community in some way. If we gave titles to everyone who was good at Mafia, then titles wouldn't be so special.

In other words, you're title probably won't gain a lot of support, though it wasn't that bad of a suggestion.

Also, we make it a point to not really care about age for titles. Most of the people who are titled already spent a good time on the site to establish themselves in the community. It usually takes more than six months to get to that level of recognition. Though whether you've been here for a short time or a long time, if you are special in a particular way you receive a title.

[Robocopter87]

Nth Go with the Flow

Fits Majiffy, Flowchart reference, good title.

[Robocopter87]

Well peeps in 1433 would get it lol..

The irony is I am probly one of the least intimidating peeps there is

uh. RachMarie's title is "hugs"

I nominated her way back when, apparently it was too blatant.

[Robocopter87]

And if it encourages Taz to post pictures to conform with his title?

I don't mind the Taz pictures, but I'm surprised that we are using it for his title, is that really the most unique trait he has?

[Robocopter87]

nth Hydrated and King of the Morlocks

Good job team, keep up the good work.

I really like Hydrated, it sounds cool, it fits, maybe not perfectly but still it's a good title.

[Robocopter87]

[Robocopter87]

I don't really think of art when I think of Quilford.

[Robocopter87]

I take it back, his art is awesome.

I probably should've clicked on the link before saying something.

[Robocopter87]

Turning a catchphrase into a username pun for a title makes absolutely no sense, and it's not like they are the first person to have a catchphrase.

I don't even know them very well and I'd be willing to bet that they have a much better trait unique to them that can be used for a title.

[Robocopter87]

Dodges Bullets

[Robocopter87]

Nth

And although he didn't create the gif thread, he pretty much did.

[Robocopter87]

Well if that's the road you wanna go down Psyche,

thingamajig

is better.

[Robocopter87]

Being good at mafia is more Scummy worthy than title worthy.

We like to keep titles as unique monuments of a person that's part of our community, and being good at Mafia isn't very unique.

Also, KK already had the title KhanMan.

[Robocopter87]

Anyway, time for a new suggestion. I have a lot of suggestions for titles for Zachrulez.

Resist the change

for his frequent MD threads about the changing meta/policies of administration or

Back to basics

for the same reason or even

Good Ol' Boy

.

Something that references the past and his resistance to adopt new policies. I think I like Good Ol' Boy the best but that title is more nuanced than I would like it to be.

Stubborn as a Viking

?

[Robocopter87]

That sounds like you're trying to make the player match the title, not the other way around. But it's not that bad of a title.
