I've tried playing the original zelda since I got it on the virtual console for buying a 3DS soon after launch, and it's loving hard. I have to sit here with a map open in front of me or I get horribly lost. Also you get extra heart containers as you play the game, but if you die it only ever revives you with 3 hearts and hearts are hard as poo poo to find, so even if you have like 14 hearts you only ever functionally have 3.

Stand down, men! It's only smooching!

You listen to me, kid. You look bright, so I think you're worth the trouble of an explanation.


Have you ever strayed into the tall grass, and find yourself staring down a rabbit the size of a dog? Incisors big enough to bite your head clean off? What's more, this vorpal bunny that isn't exactly a vegetarian? Have you felt the fear of the unnatural? No, you haven't. Of course you haven't. It's because of the blood and grit of better men that you haven't.

Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by Guards with Mithril Swords. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Returner Scum? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Leafers, and you curse the Narshe Guard. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Leafer's deaths, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a drat what you think you are entitled to.

I used to like Duane and BrandO, but over time, I noticed that they kind of have some really deep-seated issues with women that they should probably seek professional help for.

I can't argue with that. I enjoy this song, but that line always made me cringe a little bit.

The rest of this song though is entertaining though :)

If it was just one or two songs, it'd be easy enough to overlook, but it comes up in just about every song, and their defense of it hasn't done much to convince me otherwise.

Battletoads is the one that really made me realize how bad it is, though.

He has been a very... colorful person in the recent mafia games I've been spectating. Mostly garbage hysterics.

The first four hours don't actually mean anything, tho, no.

So if this is a role-crazy game, would no-lynching on day one and waiting for ~*data*~ actually be good or is that still dumb?

In general no-lynching is almost always a bad idea. In a blind set-up it becomes worse.

Because we don't know what mechanics exist in a game like this so there is no telling what a night will cost us. If there is any way for multiple kills to happen then we have less time to deal with things. If there is any role that causes chaos via redirecting or something similiar the information we gain from night actions is suspect. And because in the war of unraveling night actions scum has an inherent advantage over town with a pool of knowledge that they can use to confuse and hide information from the town.

Meinberg you have been selected to play a game! The rules of the game are simple, simply tell me who you would most want to be on your team as Scum, and who you would most want to be on your team as Town?

also, wow rude

I'll admit to being torn, there are some quality players in this game. I think that if I was scum, I would probably want Asiina to be the most on my team. She's really good at faking scumhunting, and so would be a strategic asset in appearing valuable to town while convincing those same townies to vote out their own. Plus she's cool, and it'd be fun to shoot the poo poo with her in a doc.

As a member of town, though, I hope that Somber is also town. He's quite clever, if a bit aggressive, and having him on town is a legit asset to aid in rooting out scum, while if he's scum, even if his sometime overly aggressive attitude can prove alienating.

While we're at it, though....

You are a little piss.

I've noticed several times that any game I try to join that you're also in, you act like a whiny baby and quit as if you're a loving martyr. Then stupid people decide to sympathize with you and kick me from the signoffs.

Well...

:devil: Congratulations! Welcome to the 7th circle of hell! :devil:

I'm going to dedicate this entire game to making your stay as miserable as possible! Aren't you lucky? :3:

To start, why don't you go ahead and retract your vote before you regret it? ;)
