Pfft... probably a seahawks fan.

Post 45 is a bad post.

Please expand on this statement.

Why

is it a bad post.

[jediknight]

The Steelers are the best team in the NFL
MoS is plotting your doom.
Belgarion is scum.

Hmm...trying to fit this into a truth logic model.

I like the steelers...but the best team in the NFL...no...
MoS is plotting our doom...damn right!
Belgarion is scum.

We could be playing two truths and a lie or two lies and a truth. Or perhaps I could just be posting when I'm half asleep again.

Although...a steeler shirt...that wold be some pretty cool threads right there....black and yellow no?

Supporting what twomz said to meme. Going round it is not cheating, just not being a waste of life.

Also, I don't see why Nemcon is suspicious for making a joke :/

last time i saw someone claim a PR, they were making it up. Actually scratch that-EVERY TIME i see someone claim a PR, it is BS. PRs are for scumchat imo. On the forums they are simply an excuse not to contribute.

You're right. There are no PR games in MS. At all. Ever.

¬¬

well ive played over 60 games here, and never seen a legitimate one, so thats what im basing my comments on. Obviously if you have cause to disagree, prove it.

[Nocmen]

Battle Mage is scum going after those who with possible PRs.

No, I don't think I will, thanks. Next time wait for the player to react before you begin asking for explanations.

Also, as I almost forgot, I am selling tickets for a local Renaissance fair! Please quote this if you want to buy a ticket! I assure you I can help you if you help me! If we all go the fair, we can all enjoy the Renaissance!!!!!!

[Thyroidectomy]

The first sentence of the above post sounds a bit condescending, sorry.

I have been effected with a post restriction at least twice on Mafiascum... possibly more times that I don't remember. I have a link to one of the games where I had one earlier in the thread.

Some good examples would be Post Restriction, Post Restriction MEGA, Post Restriction III, Charmed, Animaniacs, etc...

[mneme]

fwiw, I -hate- people using morse to get around post restrictions. What's the point of having a role with limited communication if in practice, it just has annoying communication?)

Then I doubt you have ever been a protown player who is suddenly incapable of communicating in any way.

I've taken on voluntary post restrictions for thematic reasons (like rhyming every post).

I've also had at least one post restriction, and played in at least one games where post limits came with special powers.

I've never had one of the -really- nasty post restrictions (though I've played two fully mute mafia games in person, and would love to play more; it was wonderful), but I've played in several games with same -- Asterix, among others that are no longer on my watchlist. (also, games with silencers and quasi-silencers, like the Final Fantasy mini).

But that's not the point; the point is that typically, post restrictions are intended to balance powerful roles, and while figuring out a yes/no protocol is fine (it is -limited- bandwidth, not -no- bandwidth), the dodge of using a character encoding is Just Dumb.

And honestly, frustrating post restrictions aren't a limitation on playing the game entirely; instead, they're a useful spice, letting you be more creative. And being more creative doesn't mean hacking the restriction so it isn't there at all; it means playing the game well -within- the restriction.

[mneme]

Oh, and have to agree with Nocmen here.

vote: Battlemage

[Battle Mage]

Battle Mage is scum going after those who with possible PRs.

of course, because pushing a lynch on someone who attempts to fake a PR is so scummy, amirite?
However thanks to Jdodge and Twomz for refuting my comment logically. My vote stands though.

Oh and happy B'day Jdodge.

[Thyroidectomy]

Anybody not buying tickets is highly suspect.

[ZONEACE]

I'm not gonna quote it as i think it has something to do with the game and may affect me if I do, but what does everyone think of Thyroid's RenFair thing. I mean, if thats a RL thing, thing whatever, but it just seems weird, and what with this being a designer game, I'm curious what other people think.

[Thyroidectomy]

It does have something to do with the game, obviously. You want the town to win don't you?

[ZONEACE]

obviously, but i'm wary in games like this to quote people who say "quote this and something will happen" I'd rather be alive to help the town win than fall victim to some trap mechanic and get daykilled day 1 (especially because designers are always so fun with the weird shit that goes on with the crazy roles people make up)

[Thyroidectomy]

What kind of role is:
"Hay you are selling tickets if everybody buys a ticket you win!"

That's bad design.

[Thyroidectomy]

Also, I know youdidn't use that example but I can guess that's what you're thinking.

[Nocmen]

meep meep meep meep . meep meep meep meep meep meep . meep meep meep .

[ZONEACE]

No, actually, thats not, the example i was thinking of was you have some sort of mechanic whereby quoting you could somehow lead to my death, and yes i realize foolinc quoted you and is very much still alive, but i'd rather not quote a section of your post you'd like us all to quote until i know why it is you'd like us all to quote it (yes i know you say we get a ticket to the RenFair, but why do you want us all to go to the RenFair?)

[mneme]

Also, as I almost forgot, I am selling tickets for a local Renaissance fair! Please quote this if you want to buy a ticket! I assure you I can help you if you help me! If we all go the fair, we can all enjoy the Renaissance!!!!!!

I'll bite -- I want to see how this works.

[Bamboomancer]

This Ren-Faire thing is suspect
I am a big fan of nachos
EVERYONE LIKES PIE

Seriously, this is true stuff, guys.

[Thyroidectomy]

This Ren-Faire thing is suspect

okay. why?



I can guarentee those who sign up for the Renaissance Fair will profit.

[schismatized]

Umm.. yeah. So enough with old hippyssance fair... back to lynching.
