@ 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.


Tell that to my wizened language teacher! He used to smack my butt thirty times everytime he caught me tilting my head to read it in a more left-to-right fashion...


Go to baidu.cn. It's china's google. Notice that all the chinese is written left to write. The only time I remember seeing chinese written vertically is on signs.

I'm more inclined towards Rashan. Who puts that much effort into an avatar and then barely posts? Low-posting scum, that's who!

Vote Rashan

Hm, a low poster hunt? Well, I guess there are worse reasons for a day one lynch.

Out of curiosity, Eloth, why do you only have two posts?

the reason why I haven't been Rping is my personal hatred for Disney ( and the fact that I know nothing of their stories. )

Well great for them, but it's not that easy for those of us who don't use it everyday, aren't as fluent and are basically working off of old repetitive lessons than using it ordinarily for web-browsing all the time.

I don't know much about Disney, either, but most of the spam/RP hasn't been disney specific at all.

Well...now you know I guess. Enough thread derailment now that people are starting to get serious.

Mmmmkay... If you hate the theme why are you playing? Disney is one of the easiest themes to RP to, there is going to be a lot of RP, especially since we get to pick our own characters.

Disney is simple

1. There is a mouse
2. He is a really fucking big mouse
3. ???
4. Profit. (Like, boatloads of profit)

Disney for me: Little sister watching the same movie time and time again until a new one came out. Trying to study with Disney music in background. trying to play video games but NO ! Rapunzel is better and all that sort of thing...
So, no thank you.

Fair enough. I almost envy you, really. I'm going to have 'Be Our Guest' stuck in my head all game...

We have about 12 hours left. I'd like to at least give Rashan a chance to return and respond before he gets too many votes. I do know there are some players who have no interest in the RP, and will start to play properly once it is done. Low posting on day one is not such an issue for me because there is not that much content to respond to. I find low posting becomes an issue when players are not contributing when we need them to, particularly around lynch time. It will also give us a chance to start prodding more, and see if anything interesting turns up.
