So why are people so angry? Why so much rage? Why not just skip over the random asian character day 1 silliness if it ofends you so much? Why the need to take it so sufferin' seriously?

simple answer: people are messed up (in a good way) we can't ignore what someone else writes, because we always assume its relevant.
so, people think you were probably coding some signals in Chinese. But can't be bothered to translate and check.



easier to just lynch you.

Easier, sure. Stupider, definitely.

Town needs information. Lynching and discussion can provide information. But how much information do you get from posts like:

vote Emurlahn

For starting this madness of speaking in tongues. I don't have the time nor desire to translate all of these conversations.



Get 4 more posts that say "Vote Emurlahn, because day 1 silliness" or "vote Emurlahn, because we need a day 1 lynch" and you'll have a lynch, but no information. Super useful.

Honestly, people need to stop being such trigger-happy pansies and actually vote and post with an aim towards playing the game, not just having fun.

If you can manage to do both together, well then that's great!

@ Emu: It's just annoying as fuck to have to translate to see what you're saying, especially since you posted all the chinese vertically so I had to copy paste each character individually. I agree those votes don't give us any information, but I don't think you were going to get speedlynched anyway.

I'm always astounded by the amount of people who say 'let's play the game, we won't get information if we speed lynch on day 1' blah blah blah. Day 1 votes are almost always joke votes, there's usually little to no information on thread until someone pisses someone else off enough to get a crazy match going. At any rate, I'm suspect of all the ducks, and anyone who chose a bad guy (Osseric) as their avatar. It seems to me like they're probably trying to say something! ;) Specially considering this was supposed to be Disney PRINCESSES themed according to the sign-up thread. I think we should lynch those players simply for not following the theme. *nods*

I thought that it was suppose to be a Disney themed game.

Come one, come all.

If you want to run Obi, just say, but since we have no sign-up I am going to do that.

Low TMDI, I originally stated 12 or 16 players but I can probably do something in between if needed. The theme will be Disney, role-play is encouraged and I was going to give you characters just because I wanted to make you all princesses and cackle evilly but you pick yourselves. I apparently have some decency left within me (or am just lazy. Possibly both).

I am GMT and this is my first time modding so any co-mod help would be much appreciated.

1. EmperorMagus
2. Roldom
3. Lady Bliss
4. JLV
5. KL
6. Blend
7. Sixty
8. GH
9. Tattersail
10. Vengeance
11. Mentalist
12. D'rek (if needed)
13. Brujah (if needed)
14. Starling
15. HiddenOne
etc.


For reading fail then trying to call other people out on it.


Vote Liosan



Editted to fix the quote tags

Night is timing out while I (and others, probably) will be asleep. So let;s make sure we can get a lynch here.

Not a lot of controversy today. I would be willing to vote Emurlahn for offering the opportunity for signaling (I know you will call it RP, I would argue if it is RP its lame and boring). Or the three ducks, just on the off chance they are signaling eachother.

I'm pretty sure Kaschan was the original duck, so there's that.

These choices are shit, but I haven't found anything better so far.

Well of course I did it vertically. I would have messed myself up doing it any other way. It'd be like if I tried to write the french parts with reversing the letters of every word.

If you really cared about the translations, you could always just have asked...?

As for signaling, that is ridiculous. Since I am Mulan, there's no one else that could be signaled by chinese, so I'm signaling myself? Ludicrous notion that obviously my accusers never even thought about before immediately denouncing me with it.

It *was* quite interesting to see the train get going though... most especially that the first 3 were contented joke votes but Osserc felt the need to try and make more of a justification of it? Tenuous and speculative to be sure, but perhaps osserc is a scum who wanted to be on the day 1 lynch train early, because scum tend to wait and jump on at the end of not vote on day 1 at all?

Well I was less concerned about the chinese aspect than the fact that you were the first (maybe barring sporadic french from the candle) to use a different language. Assuming not everyone bothers to translate (I didn't) this offers the opportunity for someone to signal someone else in a different language, where it could theoretically be less likely to catch them.

Oh c'mon, you *know* that isn't true - almost everytime we do the other languages thing someone ends up posting the translations. It would be stupid for a symp to post "I'm the symp, masters!" in another language that anyone can google-translate to english. And if google-translation is crappy for it (as it is with chinese) then the master isn't going to understand it any better than everyone else.

Terrible idea, so a symp would never bother to do it.

OTOH, it is curious that you are so upset about this but didn't say anything when the french first showed up a few pages earlier. That could just have easily hidden symp signals by your reasoning...

Ah, my apologies. So you would be the target of potential signaling.
