What are you, twelve?

The notion is that the intended audience of a genuinely ironic statement is a subset of the entire audience.

Not sure about the cynicism. The chart is from 1926. The meaning may have changed.

In accordance with Tzer0's proposal in this thread , a new group for Server Admins has been set up. The group title appears in the legend at the bottom of the page; you can inspect the members through that link. Some have chosen a different group to be their default group, so their colour is differe...

And here's an interesting chart I'd not seen before:

Was that really the best race to choose.

I'm fine with this. I can't reply to your private message because I'm apparently not allowed to use private messages? So if the goal is to have people PM me about password issues on CAO, that's... not going to work very well. :) Sorry about that, I omitted to put a checkmark in a box. Should work n...

I think what's called for is an argument about the difference between irony and sarcasm.

How many times have I heard that before.

Okay it's live. All those people do have Tavern accounts, but some are inactive.

This is the cat that lives in my house knocking over a Playmobil figure. The cat's coloration is remarkably similar to the coloration of minmay's cat.

Spoiler: show

AtT's gone too. I pm'ed him in early 2012 and he never read it.

Dunno. Ask KoboldLord.

A report was punched on this. Shut down until there's a good reason to open it.

People, always take the high road in the Tavern. Don't fight. This isn't a conflict over vital resources such as water. It's a computer game.

When inspecting one's stass, would one's head be up one's ass?

They just have to fit the criteria:

- two words
- one of which is a Crawl term that is not a dungeon branch (those are for post ranks)
- alliterative (with exceptions for good jokes)

Orc Judas

Maybe more custom titles would make people happy.

Pan cakes

The trains ran on time.

Okay can someone give me a list of server admins so I can get this started?

Trogurt.

I'm not talking about people disagreeing with advice, people keep wanting to frame it in that light. Here's what I'm talking about: But you're too busy being a flippant asshole to consider any of these things. Does that look like questioning someone's capacity to give advice? That's called a person...

Remember back in the old days. We worked hard to make good jokes together.

No politics in the Tavern.

Hirsch I, I thought we talked about this.

I'm getting shivers. Welcome back KL.

I think it's time.

If you want a topic closed, pm or report.

You can set the default displayed group. For example, I am in the Counsellors group, for administration purposes, but I have set my default group to moderator. In my opinion, dev status trumps server admin status, but I can change it to whatever people want, on a case by case basis.

Now there are house felids and field felids.

You'd have to shout "THEY ONLY MOVED THE HEADSTONES"

New class: bhikkhu. Sits down immediately after the game starts and meditates until he attains release from the cycle of rebirth. When this happens, you never play Crawl again.

It would generate near a special vault that would turn out to have been constructed on top of an Indian burial ground.

Now it's just whippersnappers as far as the eye can see.

That thread will probably be deleted entirely very soon.

Now I remember why I was going to resign from being a moderator.

i guess people are down for this, i'll roll it out soon, your colour will be hot pink
