Monty Python's Mafia Circus Game Over

Well you screwed up some vote tags. So that's one. I think you reacted in a manner that will spare you from further questioning from me for the time being.

What kind of philosophy do you teach? Hegelian? Aristotelian? What?

If you mean post 97, it's okay for me to quote

other people

talking about people. Not everyone here is enlightened enough to call everyone Bruce, and I don't have to change what they've already said if I quote them.

The reason I call everyone Bruce is actually connected to the kind of philosophy I teach - logical positivism.

Y'see, Bruce, following on from Wittgenstein's conception of philosophy as a "critique of language," and his exploration of the possibility of distinguishing between intelligible and nonsensical discourse, I call everyone Bruce partly to demonstrate that sense and truth are both attributes of language

as it is used

, not of language

in itself.

The sentence, "Bruce is a wally, but Bruce ain't a wally," sounds contradictory, but when you're here in the room with me and I tell yer, "Bruce is a wally, but Bruce ain't a wally," you know exactly what I'm talking about. The

speech-act

is intelligible even though the

sentence

is,

prima facie

, nonsense.

That's also why I don't feel the need to call other people

outside this game

'Bruce': since speech-acts are temporally and spatially contextual, it's only you lot here who are all 'Bruce' to me.

Hope that's made it all clear. Want a beer, Bruce?

I don't drink beer. It takes like dog piss. Especially that Australian beer of yours.

I get two votes! Man I feel special.

Vote: Jordan

for not being silly.

On a side note. I propose a little hunt. What are we hunting for? Why, my role of course. I will give you a clue as to where it is. It is located in the episode "The Ant, An Introduction"

Good Luck.

Don't you think it's a tad too early for a 4th vote?

Iron Man · Post Post #108 (ISO) » Thu Jul 03, 2008 2:36 pm

It's not even half the votes required to lynch.

Your just being silly.

I'm guessing if you're the homicidal barber you probably wouldn't be so quick to draw attention to that episode...

Iron Man · Post Post #110 (ISO) » Thu Jul 03, 2008 2:54 pm

No. The homicidal barber I am not. Keep guessing.

Hmm... the only number that comes to mind for me is 10, the number Socrates was wearing when he [img=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2kAnTZBnTg]scored the winning goal[/img] against Germany...

Claiming on D1 seems to be verry verry fishy, you son of a hamster!

And whats with the party poopers, As stated above monty python is all about fun, and posting restrictions are even better!

The Internet · Post Post #116 (ISO) » Fri Jul 04, 2008 2:40 am

Iron man, are you any of these:
Llama?
Man with tape recorder up his nose?
Lumberjack?
Gumby Crooner?

PokerFace · Post Post #117 (ISO) » Fri Jul 04, 2008 3:36 am

Yo Ironman, are you some kind of store owner?

I

seriously

need to buy smokes and matches from someone else in play.

I am not being silly with my previous statement.

Mirth · Post Post #118 (ISO) » Fri Jul 04, 2008 4:29 am

I don't see what getting people without obvious post restrictions (like Imaginality who could only obviously be from one sketch) to claim would help. Why are y'all trying so hard?

It might be easy to figure them out, but we still don't know their powers, if any.

Mirth · Post Post #120 (ISO) » Fri Jul 04, 2008 5:02 am

Yes, but why do you want to know so much on day one with the game barely underway and not everyone posting?

No. I am none of these. And no Pokerface, I am not a shopkeep.

strappado · Post Post #122 (ISO) » Fri Jul 04, 2008 5:32 am

I'm not even sure what we are looking for. It appears we need to off the silliest though.
Sillies:
1.) Imaginality - Bruce nonsense
2.) Pokerface - nicotine obsessed
3.) Lord Gurgi - trying to sell a dead bird...yuck

I'm comfy with the Imaginality lynch today. The town needs to get rid of people through voting, and it appears that he's only capable of voting one person...who isn't even in this game. Burn the witch!

who didn't even react to my vote much

PokerFace · Post Post #124 (ISO) » Fri Jul 04, 2008 6:11 am

Before you get confused there stappado, I should tell you that I don't exactly have a post restriction. I do actually need to buy smokes and matches from someone else in play, but I am not required to mention this in every post or something like that. I am allowed to post without saying a word about it, as much as i want. I have merely chosen to mention my search for them, in order to make my search easier. I don't even smoke in real life. I would rather not have to clarify myself any further.
