Original Message From Race Bannon:
Race Bannon: BREAKING NEWS: Epic Bloopers OR EPIC THEME CONCEPT

Relevant now, for the ongoing game [M][N]l & ll[T][N]SW:R1H Mafia is the following piece of information:

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


Ahh, public service announcement here with an administrative Twist, the likes of which there is no precedent in the tl mafia community. Black, walk us through whatever is going on.

It seems like only a couple of weeks ago that we heard rumors of sensitive, managerial information leaking to the public, with potentially outrageous consequences. We covered conflicting reports about an alleged ultimate-stakes supergame of forum mafia, involving the bragging rights elite, gambling away their collective "wealth" to an underground, organized-crime syndicate.

Now it looks like the same whistleblower --known only as ConstellationConnaisseur-- strikes again with this live coverage of yet another forum mafia game, which he claims will go down in the database as the awesomest, most epic theme game, on any mafia related site, ever. Palmar haters will surely start getting itchy fingers if this bold prophecy proves to be anything other..

than total [image loading].

They would welcome any happier ending to whiplash his doomsday scenario out of the winning spots for this year's awards, the [T] is, some might say spuriously nominated for. What Beentheredonethat, along with his team of conspirators which we know for sure includes Lunaticman, a.k.a. halleluna, a.k.a. ludachrist and Onegu the crucifier (although the latter two may be uninformed), possibly even Shapelog, Race Bannon and Alakaslam, set the stage for .. has allegedly been initially hinted upon, but then masked as a mere mini --with most conventional, open-setup-- hosting debut.

In and of itself, even if we're being duped, a cluster bomb of precedents. Because beentheredonethat's two recorded games played on teamliquid sum up his entire involvement with he crowd, nevertheless he totally disregarded the queue of aspiring hosts, the regulations in the OP of which clearly state a minimum number of 4 games played and 1 cohosted, the necessity of a declaration of intent, motivation and aspired contribution be sent via PM to the manager, plus an evaluation of setup balance by the manager or local pseudo-deity Blazinghand, as basic requirements, all of which the Mad §kill Manager, Foolishness, knew nothing about when players, attracted by gorgeous flavor and format had already started signing up!

As mentioned previously, moderators, in this case the honorable Russian Battleruiser of the Templar caste, himself known to have frequented the sub-forum, weren't safe from involvement in this quasi gag ®§ avalanche of wtf, far from being concluded at the point of topic name change. Race Bannon, also previously mentioned as collaborator for the following reasons, as soon as the game commenced, debuted with an implied claim of role PM flavors diverging from the OP, also a big nono in some circles, only to post an uncensored screenshot of his inbox as proof for never having opened his in the first place, roughly 48h later; which naturally resulted in him getting modflipped.

Fast-forwarding to the present, our board of directors have been contacted, instructed by the mysterious ConstellationConnaisseur, invited even to be part of the overarching theme game's flavor platform in bringing you this news, along with the missing piece of the puzzle, the screenshot from the Obs QT, thus flipping everything into place and unweiling among other things, "the most daring, unorthodox but superlatively uncompromising, experimental concept of dynamic setup-balance solutions".

Facts TL;DR: Apparently the host confirmed that there is indeed a tripolar discrepancy between the OP flavor, Vanilla Townie PM flavor as opposed to Power Role and Scum flavor, and whatever the fuck Race Bannon thought his involvement would boil down to.

We do not know, godfather-forbid might never know the extent of what's going on, but for now, and enjoy the supremely mind-boggling, go-to show in town.

If this is confirmed, my estimate is we can expect polarizing reactions at best from the players and the community, as the attempt of such a hosting stunt is unlike anything that has ever been recorded in history #strangerdanger #frownupontrollishness.

Myeah, well, our public service announcement sponsors agree, to some extent, on one thing: btdt, RB, Slammaster Slammyslam, who sources confirm suckerpunch-posted in the game thread despite officially not existing in that context, and ©o. better have an outstanding defense attorney on their communist internet gateway house's payroll.

Whatever, just remember, no talking about PMs, or §se!


.. to be continued..

hailliquid


And yes, 95% of the PM was in bold.



I am the crucifier!

I know I am late but I think this guy was trying to see if he could get site banned from the mafia forum, as we normally deal with our own problems, and he went so far as to PM mods who have nothing to do with the mafia forum.

Had no choice? Whatever exchange in game ends up with Firefox threatening to abuse his mod power, gets called out, and then you say he has "no choice" but to administer the abuse? I know you're partially joking, but I think this is clearly out of line if it is what it looks like.

Hopefully it's all just a joke and actually referring to something else though.

Without context, you may be right. Or you may be wrong. Why do you care so much? As long as stancel isn't messaging mods about abuse of power, nothing worth noting happened.

In other words: assume it was two guys playing around, and the ban is a joke ban, until any evidence is given that there was some kind of actual conflict leading up to that situation.

TL moderation is usually on point, and when not, it is usually corrected. This feels to me like a step back to the old dark ages when mods banned for personal gain, which is probably why I care so much. Enough to write yet another post it seems! can we please not play the "I care less than you I'm so chilled out" game? I'm just trying to discuss a ban here which is the point of the thread? Or this website feedback? I definitely don't care enough to take it there.

Anyway I think it's a wrong call even if stancel isn't messaging mods.

But again as you say. Hopefully just a joke thing.

His words.

Anyway yeah, to set the record straight, it's a joke ban from our inhouses. Stancel and I know each other well.

You´re gonna force to them to craft a new default ban text, specially for you.

It will say: "stop being too reasonable".

I'm going after you in the worker UI thread instead, to make up for it. Although in a pretty reasonable manner I guess... :/

Yeah, I am bored with that discussion already. I was mildly enjoying getting that guy all worked up (which on second thought I am not really sure if is safe to admit here, but at least I restrained myself from discussing his gaseous requirements, so it can be described as progress, right?), but I have no willpower to deal with ... sigh, reasonable people

I observe this happens to me a lot, there is a way of arguing that really grind my gears. Sure, people are stupid in all sorts of idiotic way, but this "X needs to be like this, because I am an expert and this is how it's done" while stubbornly refusing to refute any logic whatsoever (which I would be actually interested to hear refuted from an expert, because those things tend to be interesting!) ... man that makes me wanna baneling drop his dinner table.

edit: upon reading the post, I find it possibly confusing, but am lazy to edit it - so just to be clear, the second paragraph is not talking abotu Cascade, but the UI guy.

Ah, yes. That point where you don't enjoy the discussion anymore, but you can't really back out without admitting defeat. The beautiful naked authority argument! "I'm an expert, so I expect everyone to accept my statements as truth without any explanations." I imagine that triggers you pretty hard, yeah. :D

I don't wanna do it myself but if someone dug through Longshot's post history for science, he'd prolly find less than two digits worth of positive attitude posting.

He was getting worse even recently, with the baseless no GSL in 2017 etc like posts.

Not too surprising tho, considering his name.

What sets Longshot apart from other posters is that he isn't just a Blizzard hater. He'll be negative about literally any topic no matter how insignificant or benign.

We should have a bet once he comes back from his ban. Post a "man saves puppy" news article and see if he shits on it. The hard part would be seeing if somebody would actually bet against it.

"man saves puppy" seems like the kind of thread on tl i would be open to shitting up every day, so that would prove nothing

however i am gonna have little internet in three weeks so this actually might be a good time to post it

I should have sniped you while you were banned opisska but sometimes I wonder if you're just plain evil or if you're some kind of robot who is just still trying to learn human emotions but your programming is so messed up.

This is the nicest way I managed to put it. : P

Isn't opisska a scientist and thus by definition both at the same time?
