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...


I can read the level of french that was being posted without a translator. I see your other point, though.

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.

12. D'rek (if needed)

etc.


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

Eh, so when he said he wanted to make us all princesses I assumed the theme was supposed to be princesses. My mistake!

Anyway, to the person who said that only Jasmine and Ariel were the only ones in cartoon series, you're right, but Disney did not only do cartoon series. They also did like a million movies with a buttload of Disney princesses.... And there was the Kingdom Hearts games in which the princesses played an important part. Anyway, all that to say that there is a plethora of good source material out there! ;)

Anyway, keeping an eye on the thread and will vote as needed to get our Day 1 lynch. Let's not do a no lynch this time, guys!

Also they own Pixar, so you could be Bo-peep, or a car, or the girl from Brave...

That candle amuses me.


See how Rashan simply took the time to check-in to ensure she doesn't get modkilled, but then has said nothing since? Everyone else got into the RPing or the argument about languages and such, but Rashan just comes in, makes a couple of snippy comments then checks out. This is the only thing that pinged my scumdar, really, today.

vote Rashan

I admit it's by no means a strong case, but it's at least founded on something other then "OMG YOU'RE SIGNALLING WITH YOUR AVATAR" or "OMG DIFFERENT LANGUAGES MUST MEAN SIGNALLING!!!" Cases on Day 1 signalling are always weak. It's rare for someone to actually signal on Day 1, and even rarer for someone to so overtly signal as to actually be caught on Day 1, so I put no stock in such cases.

But more importantly, for stealing Rapunzel before I could you yáng wěixi! And you didn't evenpick a good avatar of her ;)

Rashan is the one that jumped out at me! My next step was to go through the rest of the names, see how much they have posted, and see if there's anyone who hasn't posted yet. I'm interested in the people trying to keep a low profile.

Day 1 is usually the best time for a low-poster hunt...

(not being sarcastic, it really is - other days always have too much distractions that we can never bring ourselves to do it)

I LOVE this avatar? Which would you have chosen.

Also, leave my sheep fucking ways out of this, please. Everyone needs a hobby.

I'll need to get home before i can check who hasn't posted yet.

I've got a volleyball tournament tonight, so probably won't be on much between now and late evening.

Everyone has posted at least once.

So far, the lowest posters are as follows:

Emurlahn - 2 posts (including the one where she calls me out for not calling her out for only one post after calling Rashan out for only 2)
Rashan - 2 posts
Osseric - 5 posts
Atrahal - 6 posts
Kaschan - 8 posts
Me - 9 posts

@ 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.


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...?


In all my experience with Chinese, people rarely write out characters vertically anymore. People who communicate with Chinese through the web, in particular, will write it out left to right.

But in any case it's more an annoyance than something I'd want to lynch for.

On the other hand, I have no qualms about lynching low posters. If we let scum lurk then they will win by lurking. See last game for an example.

@Liosan: Emurlahn is one of the higher posters. Wut.

Oops!!! Correctemundo... I should really double-check my posts before I hit the post button.

Anyway, of the above 6, Osseric, Atrahal, myself and Kaschan all played along with the RPing. Rashan makes those couple of comments I quoted above, and Eloth just makes a comment about the McDuck family tree, then the call out on my Rashan vote (which could be really clumsy symping, but I doubt it).

Anyway, I personally think Rashan's currently our best bet, and Eloth wouldn't be horrible either. If someone can give me a better case I'll move my vote, but for now, I'm leaving it where it is.

Given that both posters have been active around the time that the thread has been active I am surprised they have so few posts. I'm okay with lynching either if only to reinforce the idea that low-posting only helps scum since it gives everyone less information to work with, regardless of alignment.
