You don't have a personal QT with me. [/butthurt]
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

I like to think we communicate fairly regularly, and more importantly, enjoyably, without one ^^

It's fine. It's like finding out that you weren't invited to a party, but afterward found out that it was a timeshare scheme and not being there saved me 200 bucks and a case of the crabs.

Quicktopic also uses <> instead of [] which is not only clumsy, but silly looking too imo imo.

I'd like to sign up to be a shadow.

However I cannot fathom paying attention to more than 1 game at a time, so my first opportunity to shadow might only be after Personality Mafia (unless I get killed or something).

It sounds like a really good idea =)

QT uses html which is actually quite awesome because you can format your posts way better than on TL. I think I'm the only one who does that though.

But yeah skype > QT any second. Just a (slightly offtopic) question: is personal coaching without telling hosts allowed? Because frankly the OP makes it look like it's not and I've been told by multiple people that it's fine as long as the guy in question isn't in the game himself (duh).

I'd consider it a subset of hydra-ing. telling the host is probably good because the host might be like "hey toad it turns out john is scum in my game blah blah" or something if he doesn't know you're involved in a game

well if that happens you obviously stop it but I sometimes get the occasional "hey are you reading game-XXXXX? Could you read my case over *here* and tell me if I'm paranoid and my case doesn't make sense at all or what your thoughts about it are" when I'm not in the game myself and I never told anybody about it because I heard a lot of people are doing that and it's fine.
I just never read a statement about it.


spoilered it. Guess I'm too offtopic here, sorry

This is more tailored to new players reaching upward. I haven't heard of personally arranged coaching being outright forbidden but most games only go so far as to say there will be none provided. I'm sure if there's any doubts about it you could just ask the hosts since they are in charge =]

Probably safe as long as you're following the same basic principles. Steer clear of outside information. I wouldn't want to have mentor/coach who was in turn coached on their responses by the activity in obs QT or other PMs. Keep it honest and fair. Maybe break that thought out into a new thread? It may be more common than some would think? I'd be interested in how deep into mafia some folks are and how they tap resources for minds or rage venting, etc.

If I ever found out that someone did this in a game I was hosting without letting me know, I would modkill them. That's pretty much like being a hydra.

Telling people what you're doing or playing as is one thing. But asking them to give you advice and analyze the game for you is not ok.
