I would also expect people to have the common sense not to trivialize rape, but there ya go.

I'm not sure you can really boil down to semantics an argument about whether or not an emotive thing such as a rape victims not "deserving" to be called survivors. The human experience is not black or white.

What publicly known identities? The working-from-the-flavour-that-we're-a-team identities?
What would be the point of playing the game then?
Perhaps if you interacted with other players instead of asking about pissing flavour all the time, I wouldn't be so up in your face about being deadweight.
You've had more than 48 hours to do that, you could've even done it around asking about the flavour, but you seem to have no interest in pressuring anyone about anything. Why, pray tell? Are you spending all the time trying to come up with acceptable excuses for asking about flavour, which you know might be misleading?
Hell, I don't think Griffinpup has posted yet, and they've been as useful as you are.

« on: July 22, 2016, 09:26:27 pm »I like how because its more traumatic it somehow makes the systematic misuse of words okay.
They survived all right. just like most rape victims survive the exprrience.
just like I survived my commute.
just like most people who are bit by dogs survive.
just like cancer survivors survived.
except cancer is deadly if untreated.
So once someone's raped that's it then? No psychological or emotional or behavioral effects from the experience? Everything is hunky-dory afterward? Life as normal?
That's obviously why we don't need rape crisis centers or therapy sessions or any other of a variety of support for rape victims, it's not a big deal.

« on: July 22, 2016, 09:23:05 pm »And again, what do you intend to do about it? Stating a suspicion is all well and good, but how are you going to confirm or reject them? You've not done anything in respect to that.EBWOP also they suspect Teneb but aren't doing anything about trying to refine their read.Really? I would think that between picking you and your already suspicious behavior (At least, suspicious to me) would be enough. Sadly, I don't have anything solid to go on yet, and thus can't vote either of you up yet. At best, I can say that I got my eyes on you two.
You voted me and asked me questions, which I think is mostly from a misunderstanding in game culture seein' as how I don't think I did anything particularly noteworthy. Tunneling is an accusation you could throw at me, seein' as how I've been quite focused on TBF; then again, I'm not the best person to ask about my play so far. Little bit biased.

Why are you so interested in a protect? Why do you think it's necessary to out that information in the game on D1?

« on: July 22, 2016, 09:13:01 pm »I survived my commute to work today.
Im a work survivor.
I went to subway last week to have a 'sandwich chef' make my lunch, which was a 'healthy alternative' of macadamian cookies. Compared to a big mac, Im healthier for it.
Yes, employment and having someone forcibly insert a sexual organ into you against your will are completely analagous.

« on: July 22, 2016, 09:10:16 pm »Mod:Do we know the team roster?Can you clarify? It seems like knowing the team roster would defeat the purpose of the game.
Flavorwise, do we know the team. Obviously, not who pairs to who, but the Eleven surely know the others' super identities?
On closer inspection, the bodies, though fairly mangled, do have identifiable features underneath. Unfortunately, since their masks and costumes are gone it's still impossible to figure out who they were. Trust wasn't very strong among the Eleven when it came to secret identities, which may have been a bad choice in retrospect.
You're kinda getting on my nerves with your fixation on the flavour, now.
Are you going to engage any of the other players today? Perhaps do some scumhunting?

« on: July 22, 2016, 08:32:30 pm »Nope. its the same horse as using words like homophobe.
As in, comparing a disdain/discomfort/dislike/repression whathaveyou with clinical, chronic, and life-interrupting fear of something
Its using words that have meanings out of the scope of the context to appeal to the public opinion
Or it could be for the benefit of the survivor, as that's something infinitely better to identify as than victim.
No need to be quite so cynical.

« on: July 22, 2016, 08:28:19 pm »Everybody: Current suspects, if any.
At the moment, my only suspect is TBF, for being jumpy and defensive.
+1, though I add Dustan to that as they've been getting on me re: my vote on TBF.

« on: July 22, 2016, 08:27:13 pm »You know that thing? The list of archetypes in this game? IT IS LIE.
Too bad you didn't think this in Round 1
However, you're not really helping if you don't clue us in as to how.

« on: July 22, 2016, 04:10:23 pm »The new Elusive Target mission in Hitman is to kill Gary Busey.I thought you were kidding, or it was some Gary Busey-But-Not scenario.
What the fuck?
This is not the case.
The actual current Elusive Target mission is "Kill Gary Busey". 47 was hired by the male deodorant company that Busey worked for in retaliation for him abandoning the production.
What.
You even get a rendition of "The Lonely Child", and various other "Gary Busey is fucking mental" moments.
