What does /tag mean in signup threads? Context seems to imply it's different from /in? Or is it just some sort of running joke?

/tag to watch the thread so the thread appears in your "new replies to your posts", but you aren't actually in the game.

I do it a lot for games that I can't play in, but want to keep track of for stat purposes or for general entertainment.

I wish for the term "Boxed Lunch" to be added to the list, referring to a BoxOfDOG Lynch.

*cough*
Yep. xD

"Boxed Lunch" box lynch, meaning a lynch for the player BoxOfDOG. Comes from an autocorrect error in NewMafiaIII.
This is what I am referring to.

So, is this ever going to be updated?  Or will someone else have to start a new thread if we want an updated one?

Can we add "Pulling a WW" to be when a player is town once and then rolls scum over, and over, and over, and over again?  Like "Wasn't soandso just scum last game?"  "Yeah, he must be pulling a WW".

I've been gone a long time, so I have to ask.  Current references to WW meant to invoke which potential WW, WanderingWinder or Witherweaver?

Witherweaver. 

If we were referring to WanderingWinder, we'd all be referring to everyone, right?

I don't get it.

I think there's a running joke on f.ds that we are all WanderingWinder.

Somebody should make a new thread in general discussion: "a primer on F.DS lingo and in-jokes"

The opening entry in the primer should be an exposition explaining why we're writing said primer.

I didn't mean "I hope there is not such a running joke".  I meant "I certainly hope we are not all WanderingWinder".

It must feel pretty strange to take a break from the forums and then come back just to find out that you've been Wandering Winder all along.

Not as strange as taking that break and coming back just to find that online Dominion still has serious issues.
