Post by: Pesco on June 01, 2011, 05:44:05 AM
Hello everyone! Pesco will take the back seat while Tewi hijacks this thead :3.

Yeah Tewi will likely do most of the answers while we're phoneposting. And my responses will be in this color.

@Esifex
Pesco is at work and studying. What's he gonna do about me taking his phone? :V

@Schezo
I'd been pretty involved with Mafia before the upgrade to the current forums. When we started anew, Kilga gave me and bofh Godmother. I took care of most of the going ons in UGW (as it was still called back then) and asked to take up a more responsible role in its management.

Get a better phone damnit Pesco. We can't do mass quotes on this brick.

Buy me a new one. Jerk rabbit.

@Zengar

I respect bofh, but otherwise we're kinda distant. He's always busy on some assignment or paper and we don't get much time to talk.

How many pranks will Tewi pull in this thread?

As many as opportunity allows.

Quote

Rumia's Party Games because Pesco is taking care of it :V
Rumia's Party Games.

I dunno really. If Zelda counts, I suppose that's my answer. The items system was pretty cool.

The bamboo stalk. Just read Inaba of the Moon, Inaba of the Earth.

Best: I think (9) Squad Mafia in terms of personal performance. IIRC it was a clean game and I didn't do anything too silly.
Worst wreck: The game that does not exist.

'Bitch get out of the way'

Go polish your Gungnir.

Varies, but I think I like Indian most of the time.

I have a job to do out here, so that comes first before getting angry. That said, I do flip my shit but just not in public. My mantra is 'This is the internet, retards exist'.

Why Tewi?

And for added question stuff: which Touhou game made you rage the most? (Don't say all of them.  :V )
Title: Re: Ask a Staffer Ep. 16 - Pesco
Post by: Pesco on June 01, 2011, 11:17:17 PM
Why Tewi?

Tewi is just that much more capable than Reisen. She's the real leader of the rabbits, even if it's Reisen that can command them.

Quote

EoSD. It's the only one I haven't been able to unlock Extra for.

Ok then Tewi...

What exactly is making you stick around with Pesco then? Does Pesco has some sort of contract with you?

And how are you with Rumia since she 'owns' the Party Game thread? Maybe you should fight and Pesco will run a betting stand or something...

In seriousness though (and because Pesco needs a question too) :

How long have you been around MotK?
What was the worst moment in its history that you remembered being a part off?
Has this place improved since then?
Can stuff still be improved?

I get to hijack his phone and drive the bus. He eats his veggies, which have carrots. There's no need for a contract when we share similarities.

Quote

Pesco's money is my money. I'd kick Rumia's ass anytime anyway.

Quote
How long have you been around MotK?

Since June 2006 for lurking and Jan 2007 for signup.

Quote
What was the worst moment in its history that you remembered being a part off?

Something that I was part of would probably be when I was invited to move #touhou-meido to ppirc. Pressure from the community wanted it to stay where it was. I felt the move could only be advantageous because of the infrastructure available.

Quote
Has this place improved since then?

It's improved in that we're all more experienced in running the place. It's more newbie friendly than how I first thought it was in 2006. But  the increase in letting emotions get in the way of doing what you do at the forums (as a staffer or a member) counts as what hasn't improved for me.

Quote
Can stuff still be improved?

Living in South Africa has made demanding good service delivery part of the way of life. My awareness to it puts that as the main thing I want improved. Refer back to my answer for my goals, I want to keep the promises I make to people. If I make a post saying I'll upload a fixed cheat table, I'll make a bigger post in the game in x hours, a new rule is being enforced...these are all little promises I've made and I try to keep them. If I can do it, so can everyone else. If you can't deliver, don't say something that will be taken as a promise.

Or I guess you just love being lazy from time to time... We know if it weren't for Reisen, you'd probably sleep all morning.  :derp:

On a more serious note...

Why do you like DotS so much? What would you suggest to someone who wants to have a go at it?

Eirin's thoroughly tested drugs and surgery procedures would help you with any physical and some mental inhibitions to getting your relationship. But since you're asking for an opportunity, it's gonna cost you some yellow cake.

Do you ever see someone set up a trap in broad daylight? If I'm working while it's still dark, I should make use of the bright times to sleep.

Quote
Why do you like DotS so much? What would you suggest to someone who wants to have a go at it?

It's a similar kind of game to DotA. I like DotA enough to keep playing, that's all there is to it. I'd only give a serious recommendation if the person likes the genre or is enough of a Touhou fan to endure the gamerage.

Quote

All of the bros in GBA have their moments of being fun to play against. But people who are clearly above my skill aren't as fun because of how punished I could get by not playing up to their level.

There was a role called Sakuya. Her power was to end the phase outright and actions went by timestamps. So come deadline, everyone is camped with their action typed up, mashing F5 and ready to get it in. Night 4 I managed to send in the kill, beat the guy by 6 seconds. Then we go on and play the rest of the game like normal.

Is the reason behind there being no Tewi Quest is because Tewi keeps hitting you with a mallet so no one can tell her what to do?  :3

Perhaps people are expecting me to do Tewi Quest. It won't happen for a long time since I'm more into my other projects at the moment.

Oh right I am reminded. What was your reaction to FAV's shenanigans on the game you linked?

I lost all respect for her as a mafia player because she would ruin the game over personal circumstances. Replace out or ragequit would have been acceptable with me. I allow the ragequit because my faked vig could have come off as dirty play to her, but that wasn't the case given what she exited with. So in all, her disrespect to the other players of the game has her Lynched from RPG, applicable still if she ever returns.

Gameplay outcomes are plain to see. We didn't have such creative roles, some stuff was just badly balanced and people were pretty much all learning to play the game together. It'll be easier to answer this if you ask me about a specific game.

In Bamboo Forest UK and Kilga got into a nice big fight on Day1. I think UK got lynched and Kilga walked off with cred. The next few days we ended up taking out Carthrat, town-favoured third party and Rou. Lurkscum bofh as per usual. The game had specific examples of situational play that I can't recall right now. It was a good enough game that we would still refer to it.

PatchCon only had the Yuyuko Doll reference as a surviving memory. I remember the 3p LyLo in that game was Zakeri, Kiro and bofh. Kiro had the deciding vote but he was at Comiket for the final day. He made the wrong choice and we learn now to policy Lynch bofh in LyLo :V.

 :objection!:

Hey, I made the right choice! I voted bofh over Zak because I thought something along the lines that bofh could still be Scum despite being a Doctor or whatever role he was claiming. Not the best use of logic at the time, so it ended up being a gut read more than anything. I voted bofh, then went off to Comiket. I don't recall a quickhammer immediately after my post so Zak read my case, thought I was Scum over bofh, voted me and then bofh finished me off. I don't even remember what role I was that game (Remilia I think, but I don't remember what it did), but I remember that ending. Can I get a confirmation on this from someone else?

My stats say I've got 5.84% of the posts in the staff forum. I tend to stay off from things I have no understanding of or from discussions regarding the sections that I know nothing about. Proposals for the areas I do manage are generally the times I'll make a thread, e.g. asking for the GBA section and the punishment system for mafia.

I apply my business sense to the other discussions on suggestions and improvements. The forum is the business, what will this change in the forum's through-traffic and customer base.

Well, Rou did one at the end of that topic which was quite poignant.  It was also the game where I had no idea how my first vote on my scumbuddy could be pumped up to a lynch in a few days; once I put my vote there, there was no way I could take it off lest I look terrible, so...

To add on Bamboo Forest, it was the game where I was the only person to call UK as scum and vote her for three days straight due to pure gut, to the disbelief and suspicion of all other town except FAV at the end.  This caused UK to ragequit and ask for a replacement at the end of the game, but I became to final mislynch that caused scum to win.  I think it was remembered for being the first ever contrived scum-scum argument on MoTK however.  Got the idea of bussing every time I was scum from this game, I think, with *mixed results*.

Definitely. It's impossible to claim mastery of reading people since different ways get you varying results. My way of gutreads doesn't work well if I haven't gone through the game in an alignment alongside the person or if I don't know them well enough.

Serious question time; here's a quote from a gigantic moron:What are your thoughts on this?

Yes those are very real dangers for a female in the less metropolitan areas. Lack of education in the rural areas make people think silly crap like having sex with a virgin will cure AIDS or corrective rape on lesbian/gay/trans. There is a lot of appeal to tradition despite the call to move on and build a future. I reckon it'd take 2 generations to die out fully before there's any solid progress.

Multiculturalism is a complete hit-and-miss imo. SA wanted change and got that in 1994, but then tried to do everything too quickly. They put people at the top expecting it would suddenly turn the world over. There is still never enough grassroots level support to ensure that they encourage people with proper skills to come to the forefront. The current president is known better for his dancing than diplomacy. There is nothing multicultural about the selectiveness of the things he's endorsed. That's the farce we have to accept. The recent municipal elections apparently gave them a huge wake up call with how much territory they lost in key areas. The populace will get their change, but only by being more educated.

Zimbabwe is a lost cause to even try compare the populace. Their problems are of a different nature. Their leaders are actually competent people that built the country from ground up. Zimbabwe's highschool is worth more than SA's and they've got far better infrastructure just as an example.

What would Kaguya DO with a mecha?

Stop being such a NEET.

If only I actually knew what that is.

That's the question

That's the question

Genres: Fantasy, sci-fi, mystery and some satire/parody I suppose.

Last book I read: The beginner's guide to mod making for Diablo II Lord of Destruction.

It's a wonderfully informative document with some simple exercises. All the basic theory is explained step by step and nothing can go wrong if you've followed the instructions.

I've read some classical/canonic literature but unwillingly, those were for class.

Man I've been distracted.

Why am I your favorite?
What is the worst problem MotK has dealt with?
What sort of rulebreaking annoys you the worst?
If you could change any one rule, what would be it and why?
Why do you have such an interest in deception?

I'm not really fond of sugary foods, so assume that I don't care.

Letting them huddle under the blanket with you to keep warm.

Of course it's Pesco

D'aaww you're so sweet. But I'm still not lending you money.

Jerk :<

A Chinese girl.

Pfft. You think you can win against my cat for my favouritism? :V

Quote

Idiots and emos.

Quote
What sort of rulebreaking annoys you the worst?

Any sort of rule that gets broken because the person didn't follow instructions.

Quote
If you could change any one rule, what would be it and why?

Stricter enforcement on linking images. People in places with crappy internet would love to visit too if the pages would actually load in a reasonable amount of time. I've seen places where images are outright banned for the greater consideration of the userbase.

Why do you have such an interest in deception?

When someone says 'I'm a xxx. I can't lie'. My automatic reaction is 'You just lied. I have no reason to trust anything you say when you would use such a lame appeal.' All it takes to deceive is intent. Whether you call it good or bad, it's ultimately a tool. I suppose I just like knowing how things work.


My time will be up soon, so it's final call for questions and closing up when I turn in for the night.

If you could go back in time and change any one historical event to have the outcome of your choice, what would it be and why?

Favourite book, if any?

Do you think Pan-Africanism is remotely viable, or a good idea, or what?

I'd make it so the Scarlet Devil Mansion never came into Gensokyo.
Don't really want to get into the details of what I do wish to change.

Terry Pratchett stuff is always a good answer. But to give a consistent name, I'd say Frank Herbert's Dune

It's about as good an idea as Marxism (going by what I understand of both of these terms). Molefi Kete Asante came up in one of my classes last year. From what I could gather, the guy is just trollbait. IIRC he wanted African tertiary institutions to discard Western (Greek and European borne) knowledge and teach from African root knowledge. Now that would be great if African knowledge had the depth of Western knowledge.

I also see mention of it as a kind of unification for all Africans. Now on that point, it's simply not going to work. This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hix691Q5WQg), while pretty hilarious to a South African, demonstrates exactly what will go wrong. The guy is a Zulu, he thought he was being called a Venda. These are separate ethnic groups and fiercely proud of their identity. If you attempt to group all of Africa under one label, the infighting for individualism means nothing will come of it except a front. In South Africa alone, racism and xenophobia is pretty set in despite all the imagery of a Rainbow Nation. As I mentioned before, you'd need the death of at least 2 generations before any real change in the culture of people will make space for tolerance.

You might wanna empty your pockets first.

No preferences.

Summer
Autumn


That'll be all from myself and Tewi. Hope everyone enjoyed the week. Just because there's no thread for it, you're still free to ask stuff via PM or on IRC.
