Nothing I can use, most likely, because I can hardly ever read into your intentions in a game. :sigh:

I don't believe I have a meta. I am metaless.

Everyone should self-vote on Day 1.

Are you serious, you blew any "top civvie"- / "lead hunter"-like credibility with Omerta. (As far as I'm concerned at least...) Image

anyway this will all be totally incomplete meta, because I'm only reviewing what players did in their winning games. It all depends whether players will seek to bring their best again, depending on alignment, or totally evade such a thing for this special occasion.

That was a specific set of circumstances that are, I could argue, unrepeatable. I started as a civ in that game and was recruited having already accrued the civ cred.

No meta. Metaless

I am the Anti-Meta. I wouldn't know. Rely on meta near me at your own peril.

I misread "Omerta" as "Misfits".

Anyway, I wouldn't categorize Omerta as me being "top civvie" I just happened to be playing a game that most people weren't.

Lol, I was just ready to go pull the "Lies! Lies!" Arcade Fire song.

It doesn't matter how you would categorize yourself, it matters how it comes off looking. You took the reins, you bussed a teammate at the right time for safe measure and, as far as I detected, you only had a few doubters (like LC, I think) which were somehow removed without spreading the doubt further.

Anyway, it's all subjective rather then set in stone - but for me, despite (in your own words) "having done dick" in that game (intentionally), I really thought you were genuine whilst spectating and was shocked to see the outcome and have had issues trusting your good intentions since. You and boo probably the most, but boo's apparently not playing (or able to?).

I can't even project why you would burn to a crisp for that - for the locals finding your vompsimpression poor or for the collective sanctioning your atypical play. But yeah, you'd most likely burn to a crisp.

Faster than I burn my omelettes, even.

Speaking of omelettes, isn't Vomps a winner? Maybe he should be the last one to join. :workit:
