I haven't played with c for a while but why is bribe a package in haiku? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

It's entirely possible that I have no idea what I'm talking about.

It's also entirely possible that you have an idea about what you're talking about.

Nominate Tamuz for
I Disagree
based on his habit of always willing to debate anything with anyone anywhere. Most infamously done in the logic puzzle thread.
If you have an opinion, Tamuz will be there taking the opposite side.
Actually, how about
Am I Wrong?
I just rewatched Big Lewbowski and Tamuz's personality really reminds me of Walter.

Please don't abuse titles to insult people, thanks.

Umbrage you are trolling we both know it.

If you honestly believe that someone noting that you are often debating things is an insult, you should stop doing it.
If you won't or can't stop doing it because "it's just part of who you are", I reckon it's a perfect title.

Umbrage's explanation was that Tamuz will argue
anything
, not that he debates a lot. I think it's likely Umbrage's suggestion was intended to be a bit insulting, although there is certainly at least some truth to the idea that Tamuz argues a lot with people on-site.

I'm trying to avoid being insulting myself, which in turn is probably weakening my point.
All I mean to say is that if Tamuz doesn't want to be known for doing some thing, it's within his own power to stop doing that thing. If he recognises that it's a negative trait, he
should
be not doing it.
Would Tamuz be opposed to
A second opinion
? Technically he doesn't argue
against
everything, and I'm sure I've seen times when he hasn't directly opposed but just given another opinion. It's often slated against the original, but not always a disagreement. I just wish he was some kind of doctor or something to add some more depth to it.
And if that's no good, I'll attempt to avoid another mastintitle scenario and leave it at that.

Angel's advocate?
Edit: Actually, that might be pretty lazy.
Bad suggestion.

Is there some title I can nom you for that highlights your habit of arguing something tangential to the actual discussion instead of participating in it in a useful way?

To my memory, I haven't trolled since 62 closed.
It's a serious nom, and I consider the capacity for debate a great quality. Tamuz takes it a little far on occasion, but so have I and plenty of great posters.

I mentioned to someone recently Tamuz should get
Hall Monitor
for a title because I always see him laying down the law in threads, but I don't really know him and it's kind of mean now that I think about it. I thought it was funny at the time.

I agree with Mr.Flay.

Nominate ArcAngel9 for the title "
And one more thing!!!
"
Reference to her frequent reminders to others and occasional rule breaking in which she criticizes other players or praises her abilities from the grave. It's not mean spirited, but I think the title fits along with her general abrasive and spontaneous play style, that often grabs people as they're about to turn their attention elsewhere with a vote or accusation (or just a gratuitous use of exclamation points). I recognize that it's not a good idea to reward players for rule breaking, but it fits her pretty well at pretty much all levels. She also tends to have bursts of activity and inactivity that support the title, in which she sort of goes out of your mind only to burst back into the game as if she never left.
Examples:

Yep.
From what you've described, it's a weak suggestion anyway.

Isn't this the third worst kind of rulebreaking on the site? Behind discussing ongoing games and avatar bets, of course.

Aww but the title is so indicative of her excited, enthusiastic personality. I love it.
2nd "And one more thing!!!"

This title is just wrong.
Also, I'll just leave
this here.

Yeah, I was about to say. Hall Monitor is also a
pre-existing title.
