Nominate kilmenator for "The new Nox". She seems set to take over the latter's role as the object of desire for all the horny boys on the site (see the "Put a face with a name" thread).

Renom CPE for virgin. It is more than just a scumchat thing. It's a comment on his personality.

While I understand where you're coming from, I disagree with this nomination. Beauty aside, Kilm is
not
Nox.

I need a reference for PJ's 13thly title... I think it's from Verbose Mafia I, but I'm not sure.

Titles that lack explanation (as of page 3 of this thread):
alko
armlx
CRiX
iba
luna
lying brain
macros
MBL
Nai
Neo
Ningal
Pink Princess
Pooky
ralphmerridew
rite
RC
SK
Sarcastro
Spinacheater
Sugar
Yuko Karama

Explanations / Links will be appreciated if they don't appear in this thread. I'm pretty sure I've seen alko, RC, Sarcastro, Iba, PP in the old title thread, so I'll go reread them, but I don't know about the rest.

Pooky just always says he's got people's backs. It's pretty much his catchphrase.

Sugar's avatar is a filled coffee cup. Hence the title.

I believe ibaesha's is from this.

Luna's comes from the GL days. The first picture she posted of herself was somewhat goth-ish (more artsy and dramatic, really, but the "goth" thing stuck). And she's a limey. So she was referred to (and referred to herself) as a "goth limey chick" pre-mafiascum, and I gave her the custom title when she registered.

I
think
that Neo's is a reference to the original n00b title (Sheep).

Pooky got his after jeepfest. Just a catchphrase really, he said it a lot during games to try to make deals/get people to trust him/etc. and by the end of jeepfest pretty much everyone was saying it.

ralphmerridew's is leftover from his 2005 Scummie, I think.

SK was known on the GL (and later here) for posting in blue. Her title on the GL (and/or here early on, perhaps) was "This is supposed to be blue". jeep h4x0red things so to make her title actually appear blue, and changed it to the current form.

Yoko's comes from jeepfest. He kept setting off his own car alarm whenever we went somewhere.

Eh, seconded. Kilm may not be Nox, but that doesn't make the title any less funny.

Similar to when The Shadow joined and I almost had to make his title "knows", I had an almost uncotrollable urge to make xyzzy's title "Nothing Happens."

Macros: Macros made constant references to random hobos. If I had had more time a couple years ago and if Flay had been around to make the theme, it's possible that instead of a tiger attack this year, there could have been a hobo attack a couple years ago. The topics should still be around, I think it was post-crash.

ralphmerridew: Oops. My fault. I left it there when doing scummies.

I thought I did SK's already. Oh well, mith got it right, just like the others.

Can I unsecond kilmenator's nom? I think we have a longstanding tradition of not basing one player's title on another player without STRONG correlation, and in this case the players don't even know each other.

Actually, of the remaining titles on SV's list, I'd love to see an explination of CRiX's Pacifist of Inatitude.

Alko's is a scumchat thing that crossed over-people call Alko Tricksy since he is a trickster. Or something. I'll bug PJ to give a better explination.

I'm not fond of the suggested title for Kilmentor.

I have no problem with the xyzzy suggestion once he gets to 100 posts.

I'm going to bug Raffles about the "Army Doctor?" suggestion.

I feel like "I'll kill you all!" would be a better title for Fircoal than "Whoo!" (as reference to his comments at the end of the Tiger takeover.)

Interesting how 100 is more of a hard requirement now.

I'll third this "anti-title" statement. I don't think titles should become a tool to play "Miss Mafiascum" competitions.

So very tempted to change AniX's title to "Miss Mafiascum" for a few days.

Don't play a cold war with me, man: you'll recall what happened the last time you challenged me. I shut down this whole forum, if you recall correctly. My words brought the forum to its knees, then picked it up to its feet again so I could knock it on its ass.

I wish to propose ChannelDelibird's title to "Lost End in Crash", since in two of his Theme Minis, the game finished, but was then wiped by the crash or the move.

Hm...I really like the context, but the format needs work. Something like "Where's my happy ending?" But that makes me think of nai...Damn it.

How about "There is no end now"? Dramatic, and pointless, all in one?

You know, I had to rewrite two endings for games lost in the crash also.

(I consider this a meh title-there should be better for CDB.)
