TheKillerNacho Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 20 minutes ago, Whicker said: The theory is that the reason the five names in the above count do not have hyperlinks is because Pickle is communicating with them via discord and not PM The running counter theory is that these five names are not hyperlinked because Pickle shortened their names and no other reason While certainly odd, I do not see how a lack of a player's profile link could possibly be an error relating to the lack of communicating with that player through their normal Role PM. The obvious commonality between each of them is that Pickle didn't use those player's exact forum names on the list, due most of those players going by a shortened nickname predominantly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKillerNacho Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I'm confused why this theory even needs to be discussed when the error is so obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what they would say if they were town vs scum in this situation. My TKN comment was more of a quantitative theory over a content one.

Perhaps he was trying to keep them around the same length. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it is... the "other group" is predominantly the players with short single-word names. The only exception really is Orca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the names mentioned were long enough to make it necessary to shorten. Especially my name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bcb and Mwil are obvious non-commonalities. Ragnarok is a common candidate for being shortened.

Dome Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 This theory means you think pickle would out the scum team and then just keep on letting the game play lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
