honestly Dan I dunno why you insist on playing by twitterposting, if it works for you that's one thing but I only ever see people complain about reading you.

I don't mind twitterposting as long as a sufficient amount of work still gets done, but the issue with Dan's play is he either nearly stops playing or remains woefully behind on what's actually going on (or at the least repeatedly claims to be, which I doubt anyone would do if they weren't)

Let's play Twitter Mafia! Everyone has a post restriction of 140 symbols per post. Double posting is not allowed. I bet that would be a hilar

Games that do restrict you to like 400~500 words per post usually do pretty well as far as the PR goes! (although I personally prefer the restriction is removed after there's only several players left)

...although yeah 140 characters, uhm, el oh el

The 400 words PR did make people work together at least, but I'm not sure I can call it successful at making people post smaller posts..
Twitter posting or wall posting, the problem is really when you don't post for like 2 days. ~*~Just Post~*~

Shadoweh:iirc it came right after an issue with people making giant wallposts that were obscenely unnecessary, I recall thinking it was good.

Some people do post too much sometimes, but that's much less of an issue than the other way around.

Wallposts are fine if the information is still concise and to-the-point, instead of just the conversation going on much longer than it needs to be, but that being there's many people whose wallposts I mostly just skim through if I'm not really trying to tell if they're scum at the moment (edit:Also, please try not to make a wall that's half quotes if it's avoidable, granted I know sometimes it's just the best way to present the information)

Twitterposts are definitely easier as long as they're still contributing enough

Twitter posts are fun to read but not when they're just "I think X is scum", "Y is scum", "I need to reread Z" and so on. Fuck that. Post some of the things that go on in your head.

But you cannot reliably prove nor convey anything while twitterposting, as anything actually substantial and contributive requires a healthy amount of evidence as in references to other posts and general scumhunting mindset analysis. It is most of the time actually detrimental to those who  attempt to establish themselves via twitterposting as it not only displays a significant ''lack of interest'' from a general point of view, but has been a valid strategy in MoTK for very long for scum members to avoid drawing attention to themselves.

And then there's those like me or Serela or Skypaladin who sometimes posts wayyyyy more than we should when we don't really have a point to make, or are generally unsure about said point ourselves. ThenI guess those are the only times when this statement doesn't hold true, but I would still rather ''read'' and ''understand'' firsthand that the existence of a genuine thinking process does exist behind these Internet anons, instead of having them tell me ''Well I thought about this alot rereading bb''. Needless to say, the comparison is obvious enough.

I wonder if anyone even finished reading this posts though. :V

I actually like longer posts because I'm one of those guys that likes to rip through every piece of evidence to explain why you're wrong.
Although I agree they make rereading games terrible.

How about all of you stop talking about Dan's posting habits and actually sing up for the game?
Or rather two of you who haven't done so already.

That said, you can't deny that there's been a very stark improvement in Dark's grammar and punctuation lately.

After I have gotten into anime, I never got interested back in theatre though.

Because oh god Madoka is the only thing that has me on the verge of tears, twice before the show even ended.
And Kill la Kill is the most recent thing that successfully made my blood boil like mad
