yogsloth: I need help writing a bio for the tournament.

Any suggestions?
Just tell them your story.

HypersomniacLive: Didn't they say what that entails?

HypersomniacLive: Why give metagame amo?
I don't think a bio would reveal any pertinent info that would cause issues. This event is suppose to be full of experienced people so I would just be straight up about experience and interests. Plus not every person with similar bios will play the same, and if they look at it as they would it's a bad play on their part.

"One time, I talked a town power role into killing themself."

I left the mafia-game experience part out for a reason. ;-)

And I'm not talking about the actual facts of a bio serving as metagame amo, but some things can be telling or factored in, not directly about one's play necessarily, but about how they approach, analyse and process things.
Unless it's you, of course; don't think anyone would suspect how much you enjoy making human pretzels.

JMO, but I see flubbucket's got yogsloth covered.
Here it is.

Hopefully not too full of inaccuracies and/or outright hubristic lies.

I was about to add a note about "Likes music, long walks on the beach, and flipping tables".

Meeting, will read bio afterward.

I think it's well done. Have fun :-)
yep, good bio!

I don't think with how their games are set to go that you'll have any issues with useless people.
I'm trying to read a sample game and I have no idea wtf these people are talking about. Lots of new terminology to learn.
Oh man, saying these people are verbose isn't even the start of it.

It's not just 500 posts a day... it's 500 massive walls of text a day. Massive. Do they really read all that shit?

What am I in for?

Death. In 20 minutes. ;)

Just imagine: Me, Drealmer, and Bler, repeated over and over again. On every page. Not a JMich, Krypsyn, or Flub among them. Good luck!

You can describe yourself as an amalgamation of the most notorious aspects of the mafia players here :)
