So what ARE the rules for autocompletion?
Basically within 2 letters or so.

I think it might depend on name length, since Alexhans only did Leafsn in that one.

Maybe it's three then?

Then typing "!vote" would make me vote for Xyl :P.

Yeah, but that has no words after it or even spaces.

It's when whatever completion algorithm Xyl uses is able to uniquely identify one player with the phrase you've typed out.

I think the names of other players being in the room matters a lot in determining what you need to type. For instance, if the people in the room are PlayerA, PlayerB, and JeffersonDavis, I think just !vote Jeff would be enough to vote JeffersonDavis, but to vote PlayerA and PlayerB, you'd have to type their full name out. Note that typing !vote Player might vote one of them considering how buggy the whole thing is, but I digress.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

Could be.  But !vote Leaf is never enough to vote me, regardless of who else is in the room.

Is repeatedly getting killed on N0 as town a good thing?

Well you get to rest a lot. In peace even.

It means you're a good enough player that the mafia fears you.  It's probably what you should be aiming for.

You could also just be really unlucky.

Finally, you might just be very easy to read as town or scum, which in turn, makes you a good target.  Smart scum doesn't want obv-town players around.

As for the spell check on votes.  Just ask Xyl.

The whole thing is complete garbage anyways. Just type the player's full name out every time, that's the correct way.

Considering most IRC clients auto complete nicknames with TAB, I'd say Mr.Person is right.

Just be  careful in quickhammer situations.  Don't explore the Fail part of failtab.

L.O.L. He's right about the failhammers. One game, I managed to fail not once, not twice, not three or four times, but a grand total of five fails. On a quickhammer. And I still won. The guy sat and watched as I messed up over and over again, and then won.
