but how do they fit in those categories? what has logic done this game that feels safe to you, or what has el barto done that feels not safe? there's a lot of players that have been participating that aren't in either list, so what about those two jumped out as being worthy of inclusion?

Zack-insaner banter interesting contrast to Zack-Jabbz banter (:curtain:), true elite if partners. I don't think they are partners.

Unrelated thoughts:

MU could easily have sprawling carnival-like games, like Capo or Khaan experimentals or Pirate Ship or Andres bloodbaths or any number of Large Org games. 30 players, 40 players, hell, go for the gold and make it 100. The player base is there. However, the only format that draws such numbers are those mashes that I've still not played in. Those last like a week with 50 players, and even so the post count exceeds 10K regularly. That's inhuman. The typical maximum game format on MU now allows for just 21 players, the old Org threshold for large games. For an example of the stifling effect, Zork recently tried to run a multiball setup with 40 players, but could barely exceed 1/4 signups before scrapping much of the design and doing a 15-er. Some people had even dropped when he added a post cap to the setup!

In conclusion, MU would be a new paradise of transcendent excess if an appropriate set of social engineering parameters could be formulated to force a lower post count. Capo IV quite possibly remains the Tower of Babel experience of Internet Mafia.

@Logic why did you comment on the 1000 posts thing from Empoof out of what happened itt?

like even in that same post, he suspected El Barto but you decided to comment on something that had not muh to do with the game

curious if just read that post/had read all the thread but had no thoughts/didnt feel like posting thoughts/etc..?

mostly cause I agree with ~everything you have said

and now this post will spare me the time of giving any other reads

empoof, would you consider yourself a cagey or cards-to-the-chest type of player?

GH lean very slightly good but also feels like he might be trying a bit too hard.

Logic good for bad reasons.

Monty feels sorta offputting but I think it's a playstyle thing.

Merl1n baseline good.

:bow:

I 1-posted.

However bad the reason(s), I'd like to hear them.

Usually no. I don't think Cuth's assessment of me is inaccurate though.

Dude I'm going back to hosting biweekly light games (50 post maximum) and players that hyper spam sometimes join too.

Also I'm lowkey trying to start a light game competitive circuit so be on the look out.

I do not "hyper spam". It's called seeding the thread and it's elegantly cultural.

His commenting on the barto thing felt weird to me, his "oh boy here we go again" to Zack felt sorta fake.

by "trying a bit too hard" I more mean his normal mannerisms feel sorta funky and put on.

I feel kinda bad for that read tbh cause if he's town he's just doing his thing but it felt like I was watching a TV ad of GH.

It felt to me like he saw a villager doing stuff and asking questions (insaner) and gave a townread on him without thinking about it much. Then was caught a bit off guard when a different villager (me) immediately disagreed and challenged him on it, and struggled to give a very compelling reason for the read.

I mean idk I famously wolfread gh early incorrectly all the time, but the way he didn't really engage with me on it and kinda just left is like... Classically how he interacts with me when he is a wolf.
