What is your favorite word?
Satchel


What is your least favorite word?
Transcriptase. I don't know WHY, so don't ask!


What turns you on?
Mafia?


What turns you off?
Alcohol shuts me down fairly quickly.


What sound do you love?
The agony of a thousand souls in hell
Hmm, I like the sound of fire. Pyromaniac? Damn straight.


What sound do you hate?
I really hate bad music, crying babies, and fire alarms.


What profession other than yours would you like to attempt?
Electrical Engineering. Yeah, that's pretty random.


What profession would you not like to participate in?
Image

What's your favorite curse word?
Cunt


If heaven exists what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
Image


what's your best game as town so far?
Really liked how well we played in both Mavia VS Wolves Redux & Mafia 69.


what's your worst game as town so far?


what's your best game as scum so far?
Newbie 308 and BM's Mystery Mafia, the latter of which is partially LUCK in the end.


what's your worst game as scum so far?
I'd have to go with Mini 488. Scum were doing great until Guardian replaced in(we were the only two left). We messed up by having him, the Godfather, deliver the roleclaim when it should've been me. If we'd done it the other way around we'd more than likely have won this one. I haven't really had any horrible scum games though.


If you were going to die, but had one more mafia game you could play and you could choose any theme you wanted, what would it be and why?
If it was a Mafiascum game, then... Bad Idea Mafia?

What is your favourite book?
Haven't read a ton lately. I loved the Wheel of Time series, but I clearly need to try some of the other fantasy series out, as I keep having folks demand it. WoT was nice and all, but so many unlikeable characters, and too much excessive detail.


Author?
Dunno. Never met any of them. I'm sure they're all swell people!


What is your favourite scientist?
Isaac Newton was the man.


A wizard has turned you into a whale. Is this awesome? [Y/N]
No... My intelligence would then be lost... That's uncool!


Do you read webcomics? Favourites? Use Google Reader?
Not realllly


Euler or Gauss?
Gauss


Dyson spheres or cybernetic implants?
Dyson Spheres. Maybe with a couple of those, gas prices will go down.


Szilard engines(converts information into work!) or the concept of heat death?
Clearly someone here loves physics. Heat death sucks. Let's all hold hands and figure out a way to avoid this catastrophe.I do remember reading some weird story about this on the internet a few times. I can't remember what it was called...


Iliad or Odyssee?
Iliad hands down.


Homer or Virgil?
Homer hands down!


Living under cephalopod dominion or under a policy of racial segregation?
I'll go with the cephalopod dominion. At least humanity remains united!


Velociraptor or T-rex?
I'll go with my man T.


Elan or Roy?
I'll go with my boy Roy.


French or German?
German. Because "I love you"
probably
sounds like a bunch of vile profanity to those ignorant of German(and that includes me!). How awesome is that?


Diaphanous or transparent?
Either or? wtfrak... Transparent sounds less nerdy, so I'll go with that.


Math or Physics?
Physics. Only class I actually put effort towards in school. Ok, well, maybe not, but you get the point.


Anvil or Hammer?
Hammer. Breaking things is always fun.


Ghandi or Mandela?
Ghandi. Come on, now! That's so obvious.


Sagan's dragon or Russell's teapot?
Sagan's dragon, because Google had fewer search results and I'm always rooting for the underdog.


Assyrians or Native Americans?
Assyrians, because Meso is like my dream holy city.


Gravitas or hubris?
Hubris. Clearly that's me.


*threatens to make derogatory video of CES's avatar thingy*


Do you play any musical instruments?
I use to play the guitar, but even my battle scarred hands detest the calluses the damn strings gave my fingers.


Would you be able to indentify the countries in Africa? Europe? Asia? (assume an empty mat)
Some but not all.


What gaming system do you use?
Well, I've labeled myself retired video game addict since PS2 lost its hype(when the new systems were about to come out). I started with the NES, then moved to SNES. Somehow managed to skip N64 and moved on to PS1, then PS2. Currently I have all the new ones. I don't use them often. So I guess I'll go with PC.


What is your favorite game for said system?
Oh christ. For PC I'd have to say Call of Duty 4. For all time, clearly one of Final Fantasy 2(4), 3(6), or 7. Once Spore comes out, this is bound to change!


What is your favorite free online game?
Free online game. Hmm... I'll go with Call of Duty 4, previously known as Halo 1.


Would you rather be killed by electric chair of firing squad?
Firing squad. I'd make some kinda sarcastic remark before they fired so as to go out with a bang.


What do you find overrated?
American Idol, because it's the first thing that came to mind.


What do you find underrated?
Yogurt.


What is your favorite band none of your friends listen too?
Man, I don't know. I don't usually listen to music based on bands. I'm pretty picky, so I grab one or two things here and there, then move on. So there are probably a lot of them.


If you could have a pet, would it be a Bison?
Only if it was M. Bison. I'd take him as a pet any day. Fight all my fights for me... Damn straight.


Does your name rhyme with Bison?
My username rhymes with Bison as much as your username rhymes with dork.


Favorite movie?
Pinning down one movie I like more than any other is difficult. I might have to go with Evil Dead 2/Army of Darkness. I LOVED those movies when I was younger, and still do. I mean seriously... Chainsaw hand? Brilliant.


Favorite actor?
Favorite actress?
I have no favorite of either. There are too many good ones.


Favorite ice cream flavor?
Chocolate FTW.


Favorite alcoholic drink?
Well I hate the taste of alcohol, meaning at parties I just go for the liquor. I hate wine. Too many bad experiences when I was younger, but maybe it was because I tried that nasty boxed wine.

Beer works. I don't drink very often though.


Favorite non-alcoholic drink?
I had this awesome drink at this indian resteraunt about a week and a half back. I forgot what it was called, though. Was like a tango flavored cream drink. First one to send me a recipe gets a video parody from me.

btw it's called a LASSI.

Somehow I missed the new questions.


What is the basis for your game style? What is it influenced by? Do you think it works as much as it should?

Sometimes I play like a maniac. Sometimes I try to play very logically. It's just part of what I'm like I guess. Sometimes I'm in a serious mood, and sometimes I'm just not. But I keep everything relevant.

I don't really have any defined game strategies. I never go into a game with a "plan." Either as town or scum, I want to look like town. I tried over thinking my first game here, and it led me to become paranoid and overreact when things didn't go my way. Now I just try to avoid that, period, regardless of alignment, and part of that includes rocking the boat and not thinking about the consequences.

So if you're looking for meta material, I'm afraid it's nonexistent!

Yay i realize it is next monday and your time might be over but I am still going to ask these.

1) What picture making/editing software do you use?
Assuming I don't know this software is it easy to learn and is the an easy article online I can read about it at?

2) Is there a website you get your material for your edited pics from?

3) That guy in your avatar that laughs, who is he?
He reminds me of Light Yagami from Deathnote with his laughing.

4) You often make posts saying "Kison is never scum" yet I have read games were you were scum. Do you just rarly get that role or do you do this for fun and gigles?

3) What goal do you want to accomplish in life that you haven't accomplished yet?

4) If different, what adventure would you like to have before you die?

5) Do you agree with me that you are even more win than Shanba? If you answer no is it because you are so win that you would never say something so impolitic?

1) What picture making/editing software do you use?
Assuming I don't know this software is it easy to learn and is the an easy article online I can read about it at?

For
picture
editing I use Adobe Photoshop. For the animations I use Macromedia Flash. Articles? I never learned how to use either by following any tutorials. I learn by trial and error, and if I am stumped on something, I try to do a quick google for it.

Easy to learn? Not really. I first used Flash when I was like 12 making dinky cartoons of stick figures killing eachother(i was a big fan of stickdeath.com) and it was very confusing to me. I'd reinstall it every now and then and progressively get better. I just recently reinstalled it last December, sadly, to make something for an inside joke on another site. Photoshop is much harder because I am not very artistic. MBL claims I'm talented. He is a liar and I have since disowned him as a friend.

If it's your desire to mess with this kind of stuff, make sure to keep a loaded gun nearby in case you change your mind. But like anything else is just requires effort.


2) Is there a website you get your material for your edited pics from?
Things I add to my pictures I either get off Google or make myself. I don't have any set website where I retrieve material from, though I have a
stash
of goods from over the years.


3) That guy in your avatar that laughs, who is he?
He reminds me of Light Yagami from Deathnote with his laughing.
No, he ain't Yagami Light, but that's not a bad guess. He's actually
suppose
to be Rand al'Thor from the Wheel of Time series. The laughing(i guess it's laughing?) is suppose to be him going mad from the taint. You wouldn't really understand unless you read the books. The explosion I added myself. I got the original piece from a website of a web comic for WoT, where the owner had that avatar. He has since changed it(i don't frequent the site) but I still had it stashed on my computer and figured I'd use it as my avatar last summer. Kinda stuck.

All the other variants of that guy I've made myself out of boredom.


4) You often make posts saying "Kison is never scum" yet I have read games were you were scum. Do you just rarly get that role or do you do this for fun and gigles?

Before I go on, everything I am about to say is referring to any completed game on my Wiki page. I'm not referring to any ongoing games.

The never scum part is definitely not true. I was scum in a lot of my early games. The "Vanilla Townie curse" thing is true to an extent, though I do over-hype it. I've had a lot of games where I have had minorly beneficial roles and I have never had the opportunity to use them, whereas in the games where I would make it far enough to be of service to Town, I am vanilla townie and am of detriment for not being able to prove my innocence beyond my play. This is kind of reinforced by the fact that I've only ever roleclaimed a role(completed games) twice as town, and one of which was a role that probably led to my demise because of the setup of the game(SirTornado's mini game with all the cops).

Scum:Town ratio is near 50% for completed games.

...But Kison still ain't ever scum. He's just a spy for the good guys.

I've been ambushed!


1) Where have you gotten to travel?

Nowhere special. I went up to Maine once up to the border of Canada. Weird temperature changes over there in the summer time from day to night. Went over to Michigan as well. Nothing special there either. Living in the DC area, I guess I get to see enough as it is.

Some parts of New Jersey are wild. Mobbed up, haha. Went up there a month or so back.


2) Where would you like to travel next? Why?

Heaven, because dueling God would be epic.

Uh, I guess I wouldn't mind going out west sometime. Maybe Vegas? As for why, well, cities around here are kind of boring. I've heard better stories about the west.


3) What goal do you want to accomplish in life that you haven't accomplished yet?

Buy a house.
Get a job that is not as cruel as my current one.
Get a degree from college if that is what it takes.

5 years ago I'd say, to make a video game. Since then I've realized it's not that fun, haha.



4) If different, what adventure would you like to have before you die?

What kinda adventures can be taken this day in age? I guess I wouldn't mind skydiving or doing one of those survival in the wild type things. As it is I get enough adventure with my job.


5) Do you agree with me that you are even more win than Shanba? If you answer no is it because you are so win that you would never say something so impolitic?

This isn't my place to decide, Mr. Scissoro McPantero, but I'm not sure what I've done to spark this sudden philosophical revelation. <3 Shanba.


I'm not allowed to ask any questions if I haven't sign up for the game, I presume.

Huh? Ask away.

Bad news for me? Oh man now you
have
to tell me.


Which/what mafia game are you going to sign up next?

I've been telling myself I'd be cutting down since September, and only recently have I been successful in keeping to that. Down to three games, and have no immediate plans for any others, to be honest. Though if I do, I wouldn't mind doing another one with you, X, since you left MvW before it ended.


Well I guess the week's up, so if anyone has anything else, feel free to PM me so as not to keep the board spammed with my horrendous little thread here :lol:. I'll try not to bite. No promises.

Shanba is great. But until he makes me laughs out loud with Flash and Photoshop on a practically weekly basis you get to be winnier.

So what's this cruel job of yours?
