Compllaining is a strong word. It’s just weird that so many peoplle have the same bllind spot. (In reall llife too.) I have to spel it out al the time, and although the rage eventualy begins to pal, I stil sometimes want to yel at people. It’s not llike I’m going to snap and kil someone one day (I wouldn’t want to take the fal) but it seems llike a realy obvious sllip up that should just jump off the page. Anyhow, it’s not a big deall.

@ **amrussell** , my comment was intended as a joke - I just forgot to add the 😃

I really hadn’t noticed the error until you mentioned it - I suppose you start to ignore certain things (like the wrong gender, incorrect spellings) after correcting them a couple of times - in the last game **Pedescribe** and **Mahaloth** had lots of fun messing around with everyone’s names and some people just insisted that I was a “she”… I think this is one of **Tom** ’s pet peeves - he even complained in the forbidden and spoiled threads about it afterwards!

Hi everyone. Since this is colourless mafia I better have a tequila.

Male. I check on a daily basis.

Sorry. I thought I remembered you getting irritated at someone for getting the gender wrong the other way during Screamers. (Also, I kind of overcompensate towards “female” when I’m not sure on account of getting things wrong the other way too many times).

I’m usually the one getting irritated about gender–enough so that my sig references me bitching offline to a gaming buddy.

Deifnitely not old enough to drink in the U.S. legally, probably not old enough to vote. (IIRC, he was 15 when he did Terminator Mafia, which was about a year ago or so.)

ETA: And I really should refresh a thread or preview when I leave a tab open and then get distracted.

You know, I used to have a real life buddy who cooked up drinks named things like “Texas Steel Cage Deathmatch” (because it tastes like your tongue is _pro wrestler voice_ in a FIGURE FOUR LEG LOCK! OOOOH YEAAAAH!), and I’m pretty sure he didn’t get a gender change at any point, so where did YOU come from?
