Nominate the worst for
snuggly cunning quackup


He has fooled me as scum 4 times now and he really liked being referred to as a “quackup” as backup mod in Boon’s most recent game.

<3 you, Ducky.

let's not nominate people who only recently got titles (aka during DRK's reign) for new ones
the titles she did give are still VERY relevant today, and I don't get why people are trying to 1-up someone who was trying to encourage coming up with perfect titles for individuals.

All of those titles fit the people given to them extremely well and I honestly don't think they can be 1-up'd at this time.

Well-said.

I don't see this line of discussion producing any titles better than the ones already given.

In post 3, Errantparabola wrote:Nominate implosion for
Polymath


1. Notably, he was the arguable MVP in the recent Clash of the Mash and a key component in Red's win (likely every CoTM participant will agree with me to some extent). He got to showcase his outstanding puzzle solving, deduction, strategy, and trivia competency and performed highly in almost every cerebral challenge.

2. The last part of the title plays into his field of study (mathematics) which he has integrated into his site persona. This is by way of making and participating in the second Math and Logic Mishmash thread, discussing math with other sitechatters of present and past (Who and Ellibereth come most immediately to mind) and in numerous very well received MD contributions involving EV calculations or theory.

3. implosion is going back to grad school to once again study math and made the grad school discussion thread in SE. The word polymath evokes an image of someone with a vested interest in academic learning and with knowledge of a wide range of intellectual pursuits and is a good-looking and elegant title.
pol·y·math
/ˈpälēˌmaTH/
noun
a person of wide-ranging knowledge or learning.

I like it. Gonna immediately give this one a
48 hours
before approval: (expired on 2019-04-03 18:45:53).
Raise a valid objection in that time or forever hold your peace.
I'm
approving
this.
The only question would be upper or lowercase m. While I personally favor lowercase, in this case I'm going to defer judgement to the person who'd hold the title; am contacting implosion now.

A user should not be involved in the discussion of their own title, the title fairy being no exception.

However, with the number of nths given, I feel it
is
appropriate to weigh in on the subject:
I have absolute apathy towards the title; I feel
nothing
about it at all. There's a total indifference about it. I don't love it, I don't hate it, I don't like it, I don't dislike it, I just am utterly blank about it. It doesn't resonate with me, but it also doesn't have dissonance with me.

I wanted to actually do some research on the title; I found the original area for the nomination and read it up to the point where people went off on a tangent for some other title (there actually isn't that much on the subject then), but I believe it was revisited at later times, and those're times I can't instantly locate. I'm specifically looking for the strongest supporters of it and their reasons why, and also the strongest opponents of it and their reasons why.

The strongest reason I have available is Aristophanes's writeup, but I want to hear more feedback from others before I approve it as a title.

The main question I'm looking to get answered is, "If someone else were the title fairy, would that title fairy approve this title using the metrics I am using?", and I'm not sure the answer is yes.
