Orca? This! is! Dance of the Title Fairy!

[Adel]

"2 scum + 1 post = game over" for guardian?

[Adel]

Oman took his vitiamins today or something.

[Adel]

I disagree with any nominations for CKD based on the "lightning rod" concept. One instance isn't really enough to justify a title, especially when the event behind the name isn't really *that* uncommon (for example, I was targeted by like 5 different roles on Night 1 of Doctor Who 2 mafia). It doesn't happen often, but it does happen, and I don't really see why CKD in particular should get a title for it. I'm sure there's a better, more personal title we can come up with for CKD.

Snakes on a Plane. Doublenightkilled (by SK and Mafia)

and

culted and targeted by at least one other role.

nominate Glork for "more qualified"

[Adel]

FaerieLord was targetted by six people in my Blue Jam mini. One of those people was a watcher as well, with hilarious results.

link please!

[Adel]

while I didn't actually laugh, I totally enjoyed reading that game.

[Adel]

NabNab needs a title, but a better one then IvonkovKasparov. I don't have a suggestion at this time.

[Adel]

unless "LalitaLalita" would work...

[Adel]

I think Kali fits me better than the Buddha.

To properly understand this complex Tantric symbolism it is important to remember that the meaning behind Shiva and Kali does not stray from the non-dualistic parlance of Shankara or the Upanisads. According to both the Mahanirvana and Kularnava Tantras, there are two distinct ways of perceiving the same absolute reality. The first is a transcendental plane which is often described as static, yet infinite. It is here that there is no matter, there is no universe and only consciousness exists. This form of reality is known as Shiva, the absolute Sat-Chit-Ananda -- existence, knowledge and bliss. The second is an active plane, an immanent plane, the plane of matter, of Maya, i.e., where the illusion of space-time and the appearance of an actual universe does exist. This form of reality is known as Kali or Shakti, and (in its entirety) is still specified as the same Absolute Sat-Chit-Ananda. It is here in this second plane that the universe (as we commonly know it) is experienced and is described by the Tantric seer as the play of Shakti, or God as Mother Kali.[33]

From a Tantric perspective, when one meditates on reality at rest, as absolute pure consciousness (without the activities of creation, preservation or dissolution) one refers to this as Shiva or Brahman. When one meditates on reality as dynamic and creative, as the Absolute content of pure consciousness (with all the activities of creation, preservation or dissolution) one refers to it as Kali or Shakti. However, in either case the yogini or yogi is interested in one and the same reality -- the only difference being in name and fluctuating aspects of appearance. It is this which is generally accepted as the meaning of Kali standing on the chest of Shiva.[34]

Although there is often controversy surrounding the images of divine copulation, the general consensus is benign and free from any carnal impurities in its substance. In Tantra the human body is a symbol for the microcosm of the universe; therefore sexual process is responsible for the creation of the world. Although theoretically Shiva and Kali (or Shakti) are inseparable, like fire and its power to burn, in the case of creation they are often seen as having separate roles. With Shiva as male and Kali as female it is only by their union that creation may transpire. This reminds us of the prakrti and purusa doctrine of Samkhya wherein prakāśa- vimarśa has no practical value, just as without prakrti, purusa is quite inactive. This (once again) stresses the interdependencies of Shiva and Shakti and the vitality of their union. [35]

Gopi Krishna proposed that Kali standing on the dead Shiva or Shava (Sanskrit for dead body) symbolised the helplessness of a person undergoing the changing process ( psychologically and physiologically) in the body conducted by the Kundalini Shakti.[36]

[Adel]

I don't know if he will like it, but I would prefer

not your lawyer

for Stoofer.

[Adel]

nominate Elias for "not statistically significant"

better than a title that outs him as strong scum

[Adel]

more evidence that a person's opinion can be more correct even if it is a minority position.

[Adel]

nominate "cursed" for kison

[Adel]

Surprisingly, it ended in a pretty good title that I'm willing to accept. But this is just an example of how ridiculous this site is getting these days.

or you could look at it as an example of the process working. The point of this thread is to generate good titles, right?

[Adel]

i'm not saying that you are wrong, just pointing out that if we like the ends then perhaps the means weren't so bad... but this isn't a point I'm heavily invested in.

[Adel]

what is the threashold for significance? 1/500? 1/250?



~~~


fun or not, math is the only way we can establish criteria for less-subjective evaluations. math has utility.

[Adel]

nominate

: the person with the higest (win % as scum + win % as town) in newbie games, with more than 15 newbie games completed, for

"eats newbies"

[Adel]

like eating newbies on the Road to Rome?

[Adel]

nominate

: the person with the higest (win % as scum + win % as town) in newbie games, with more than 15 newbie games completed, for

"eats newbies"

I'm suddenly glad I don't keep track of newbie games separately...I

like

my title...

nominate MoS for

"eats newbies"

[Adel]

I think name based titles are silly.

But "definitely naughty" appeals to me for Claus, ish.

if we have to go there, I think "Bad Santa" would be better.

[Adel]

I don't like guardian's. It's based on something he did in one game,

that wasn't particularly outlandish or anything

.

I really like it, and beg to differ. .

Well, I don't find it particularly amusing, and I don't think crosskilling is that rare an accomplishment. It happens pretty regularly. I think there are a lot of things that stand out about you as a player, and that ain't any of them. That you crosskilled K9 in one game doesn't come to mind when i think of you.

'Too active' for instance, would fit you a lot better, imho, as would the proposed 'mislynched' or 'not a tracker.'

He replaced into a game and made exactly one post in the game, ending it. His single post hammered an opposing scum, and his night move killed the other opposing scum.

His one post yielded two dead scum from an opposing mafia. This wasn't part of an endgame, it was day 2!

One post killed two scum. At that rate my 1900 posts could be responsible for 3800 scum deaths, instead of 9.

[Adel]

Thirded

@one hit wonder

I don't exactly object to it, but would "two kills one post" or "one post wonder" or something else be better? .... i'm just not quite feeling it.

[Adel]

which is what makes it funny.

How is this amusing?

Are you implying you don't find girls eating fecal matter funny?

Are you implying that you do?

I don't find tsq funny.

tsq eating fecal matter, however, would be funny.

[Adel]

nominate Quag for "Hates"

[Adel]

or "hates more" or "hates all"?

[Adel]

Yes!!!

second "hates you" for quag

[Adel]

Also, Quag's title is approved.

You're just giving him more reason to hate you by doing that!

[Adel]

I sense a lot of jealousy for ABR. Hot guys don't have to be good at flirting: they are hot.

[Adel]

I would not reject Title Fairy, nor anything people in general find funny. I kind of like the title. I would use it to dick around with newbies.

Now I totally support "Title Fairy" for pie. Most excellent!

[Adel]

lol @ oman (and hopefully with zonace).

[Adel]

nominate "

Potentate

" for Yos2

[Adel]

How about SSOT for Yos2?

[Adel]

holosonic

[Adel]

nominate

Noob

for self-nominators.

[Adel]

nominate "title removed -- too serious" for Thestatusquo

[Adel]

nominate

"Cool Title"

for Guardian

[Adel]

Second that, and re-second Guardian for

Cross Killah

.

I hate that for Guardian... he is so much more than that. It bugs me to no end that I can't think of a better title for him.

[Adel]

I like gay bondage porn.

Why Adel should never be allowed to raise a son.

[Adel]

my inability to read has caused me to look like a dipshit.

if it makes you feel any better, I honestly thought there was an "F" in "Zoneace" until about a month ago when I happened to stumble acrosss the mafia wiki article explaining your title.

[Adel]

Nominate Adel for "The Femslash Slasher"

you aren't going to beat "Crystalline Logick".

logic is to logick as magic is to magick

[Adel]

Aleister Crowley coined "magick"
James Madison coined "logick"

[Adel]

second "threadjacker"
tits!

[Adel]

Nominate Erg0 for "Almost Anything"

second, and I think this is the first self-nom that may actuall go though

[Adel]

"Abused by Power" for TSQ

[Adel]

I don't like either for shaft.ed

"shat.fed" makes me giggle everytime though.

[Adel]

well I guess it is out of contention then since it was only mentioned in a couple of mafia games, and never in scumchat or GD.

[Adel]

nominate

"Insults"

for Alabaska J . It is a good idea for a title because it is clever.

[Adel]

boo!

[Adel]

I've seen worse drunk playing. Me and some others have a habbit of getting on irc drunk. I found that post only vaguely amusing. You are clearly not an alcoholic if that is the worst you can do.

Heh Heh i'm just funning. I did laugh. I support him getting the title if he does want it. But I truthfully don't consider him an alcoholic because I myself have done worse on irc while drunk:

That was a fun game but I wouldn't call myself an alcoholic either since other players have done worse then that even.

You don't have to be the sloppiest drunk in the room to be an alcoholic.

[Adel]

based off of Dynamite Stick, I really don't want to see him rewarded with a title for that kind of bahavior.

[Adel]

"naughty IC"?

[Adel]

nominate

"Not Quagmire"

for Alabaska J

[Adel]

Screamer

?

[Adel]

Screamer

?

You'd like that wouldn't you?

Don't really like the scream based titles.

not even

ear splitter

?

[Adel]

A

<-- I want one! Pretty!

[Adel]

"the B in manhammer"

[Adel]

"Endgamed"

for shaft.ed, if he accepts it.

[Adel]

Given current developments,

Nominate Xdammno for "Loves to Win"

[Adel]

May I suggest a new approach for titles?

I suggest that a clever title should be thought of, and then the player that best fits that title should be identified.

[Adel]

Also, his new title nom sucks.

As compared to your fantastic titles? Seriously, don't kill the funny.

I lol'd.

[Adel]

Some of us are normal and have no clue what chanspeak is. So explanations are useful.

it is from the forum at 4chan, which was like somethingaweful for people who can't adhere to the social norms of SA.

Wait, there are people who can't adhere to the social norms of a mongoloid jungle outpost?

4chan is The short bus of the internet. To Faux News, it is an "Internet Hate Machine" consisting of "hackers on steroids" And wannabeterrorists." To others, it is that site full of weeaboos, trolls, and pedophiles that churns out many of the internet's most popular memes. It is actually an anonymous Japanimation-themed collection of image boards based on the popular Japanese site 2ch.jp. 4chan is proof positive that the US should not have stopped with Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but should have nuked the entire island of Japan off the face of the Earth. The site is full of fail and a wide assortment of fucktards, all of whom have at least some variant of social anxiety disorder. So, not surprisingly, most of the image boards consist of hentai and shock images.
Many memes, such as "sauce plz", originated at 4chan. Also, many image macros are created there, such as the various Caturday pics. This has led to Anonymous declaring itself "the face of the internet", when it is truly more reminiscent of the anus of the internets. 4chan is like the anus of the internet in that it holds all the shit inside the rectums so it doesn't spray out all over. When 4chan goes down, it's like the internet has explosive diarrhea.

4chan is an English-language imageboard website based on the Japanese-language Futaba Channel. Launched on October 1, 2003 by "moot" (allegedly "Christopher Poole"), its boards are primarily used for the posting of pictures and discussion of manga and anime. Users generally post anonymously, and the site has been linked to "Anonymous" culture and Project Chanology. The Guardian describes 4chan as "at once brilliant, ridiculous and alarming".[2]
The "/b/" board is by far 4chan's most popular forum. It is dubbed the "random" board; there are minimal rules on posted content. It is thus notorious on the Internet; Gawker.com claimed in jest that "reading /b/ will melt your brain".[3]
The site has generated broad media attention, and its members have been responsible for the formation and popularization of Internet memes such as lolcats, rickrolling, and the popularity of the Tay Zonday song "Chocolate Rain". It has also received media attention for its attacks against other websites and Internet users, and for the threats of real world violence that have been posted on it.

On 18 September 2008, the private Yahoo! Mail account of Sarah Palin, Republican vice presidential candidate in the 2008 United States presidential election, was hacked by a 4chan user. This had followed criticism of Palin and other politicians using private email accounts for parliamentary work.[40] The hacker posted the account's password on /b/, and screenshots from within the account to Wikileaks; these screenshots were further distributed by blogs including Gawker.com.[41][42] A /b/ user then logged in and changed the password, posting a screenshot of his sending an email to a friend of Palin's informing her of the new password on the /b/ thread. However, he forgot to blank out the password in the screenshot.[43] A multitude of /b/ users attempted to log in with the new password, the account was automatically locked out by Yahoo!. The incident was criticized by some /b/ users, one of which complained that "seriously, /b/. We could have changed history and failed, epically."[44]

[Adel]

right, they are rather famous for distributed denial of service attacks, and other elite script kiddie tricks.

[Adel]

finally a worth title nomination!

kudos to Korts!

[Adel]

I missed you ZoneAce. I'm glad to see you posting again.

[Adel]

with all of these new titles I feel significantly less special. Thanks a lot jeep.

[Adel]

thanks, but I remain quite attached to "Crystalline Logick"

[Adel]

Nominate Guardian for "Cuddle Buddy"

'cause he is the perfect little guy to cuddle with in a game.

[Adel]

Korts still needs a title, even if his alcoholism isn't pronounced enough for this thread.

[Adel]

*glug, glug*

fixed

[Adel]

Scummy Godmother?

[Adel]

does anyone have the title "Elitist" or "Elite" yet? If not, who could be considered for such? Guardian?
