Please god, no Fedora or Trilby.

 

[Gova]

But Trillbo Swaggins tho.

 

[Jdietz43]

It's too late Raz, the Trilbys are here already!

*evil laughter*

 

[#HBC | Nabe]

Please god, no Fedora or Trilby.

I think we all completely understand your aversion to a style of hat.

All we'll get across with that one is that we're all lushes.

Problem?

In all seriousness though, like marshy said, doesn't it pique curiosity just a bit?

 

[Jdietz43]

Problem?

Kinda, I'd be a little sad if we went with wine. If people hover over a picture of wine and it says "Dgames" they'd be inclined to think it's some kind of drinking contest, and that's not at all what I'm about. It's intriguing for the wrong reasons.

That said it's still more interesting than some of the other ones, like the just "DG" one etc.

If we go with one of these ones shown so far my vote goes like this:

=

Pink dice is sooo good for another medal tho

 

[Kantrip]

lol yeah my post was an icon from epicmafia

I actually like it as an icon, it's unfortunate

 

[Raziek]

Oh, the conflict with "Drinking Games" is actually one that would seriously matter...

Hrm.

 

[Kantrip]

epicmafia icons are actually perfect for what we want QQ

Hrm.

who the **** is actually going to hover over a postbit and think theres a secret club for drunkards on a smash brothers site? what the ****?

 

[Raziek]

Well when you put it that way, it does sound pretty stupid, but it could be something not that unreasonable to think.

I mean, that might not be a bad thing if it made them want to figure out what D-Games was, haha.

 

[ranmaru]

It's vague though. And then when they click on it, they won't find anything about drinking. YAY.

but they'll find ruy.

 

[ranmaru]

but they'll find ruy.

It's ok. We hid him safely in the crevice. They'll never think to look there.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

wow is this conversation really happening

icon should be a tiny little gallows

'nuff said

 

[#HBC | marshy]

that...is such a good idea yet so simple and obvious i think its funny no one thought of that yet

 

[Gova]

Nah, we can't use the gallows. Everyone would just think we play competitive hangman all day.

 

[#HBC | Joker]

Maybe we should start playing "Hangman".

 

[Nicholas1024]

Now I want to design a game of Hangman mafia.

 

[#HBC | Joker]

Consonants vs Vowels?

 

[Circus]

**** the numbers would almost work out tho

e = mafia ninja (so silent)

y = mafia traitor, obviously

c = indie lyncher (goin' after k and s of course)

would get mad confusing if J signed up

 

[Xatres]

Tremble before my almighty mspaint prowess.

 

[Jdietz43]

Lol. If we do go that route, we probably don't actually need a dude IN the noose. That's just a whole 'nother level of unnecessarily creepy for a postbit. It's a p. nice postbit for what it is though.

 

[#HBC | Nabe]

Kinda cute though.

 

[#HBC | Nabe]

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

the 2nd

or the 5th <3

 

[Jdietz43]

Yeah the second looks the best to me too. Looks like we have another good candidate for postbit

 

[#HBC | marshy]

**** it lets just change postbits every month well be that one group ****** notice cuz we always flashin a different kind of swag

 

[Circus]

pretty macabre

as usual, Nabe is right up my alley

 

[Gova]

We should use a pillory or a guillotine imo.

Nooses have certain connotations.

 

[Xatres]

In all seriousness, I actually like the flat pink dice best. It's clear, noticeable, and represents DGames well.

 

[Circus]

I get what you mean

But guillotines ain't exactly used to chop melon

 

[Kantrip]

Lynching is usually associated with hanging anyways

 

[Circus]

Devil's Advocate: Although we might as well just be considered a Mafia subforum, Dgames is technically meant to encompass more than that. A more general representation of that probably would make more sense. I mean, we do occasionally run adventure and riddle games and then never finish them.

 

[#HBC | Joker]

What if we just mushed these together? You could probably fit them side by side in a 17x17 space.

 

[#HBC | Nabe]

A hanging wine glass? Now who's macabre?

I agree about the nooses.
mafiascum is branded with a noose I mean we want to avoid that association

**** it lets just change postbits every month well be that one group *****s notice cuz we always flashin a different kind of swag

Can we actually do that? Is that a thing we can do?

Thing is though, it's more motivating to be like, "Did you get your Wine yet?" than, "Did you get your ever-changing DG postbit yet?"

... like what? *genuinely not even knowing*

Omg so approved

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

Nooses give certain connotations. BUT GUILLOTINES DONT #logic

 

[Gova]

Guillotines give other connotations; not the same ones as a noose.

obv

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

Nooses. Killing yourself. Whites used to do it to blacks back in the day. I get it. But really who's going to see a postbit of a noose and think "ooh a group of suicidal people on Smash World Forums," or "Is this the white supremacy side of DGames?" The only game that's ever been played here where guillotines have been involved was Rusty Guillotine (a setup we should TOTALLY reuse btw). Aside from that the flavor is lynching. How does one image a lynch? With a noose

 

[#HBC | Joker]

Noose may have some negative connotations, but if we use a guillotine, people might think we're French.

Ew.
