The Snake Scale

almost 8 years

This moment is unprecedented in Survivor Lobby history. It has now fallen to me to create the very first snake scale this lobby has seen. It's based on five categories of players, each described in detail, and the higher a number a category has, the more snakey the people included in it are. I'll give out one example for each category, but please feel free to comment in this thread to find out where I think you belong.

Category 1: The New Player

This type of player doesn't talk a lot. They're new, inexperienced, and have been in the lobby usually for less than a month. You can usually recognise them by their utter inability to perform well in challenges, the lack of words you receive from them, and the fact that they believe all alliances are equivalent to signed contracts. They don't really comprehend why backstabbing happens, and blindly believe they're exempt from it.

Example: copperstar82, Bob01, Chanman123, PyreTheGod

Category 2: The Non-Snake

One of the rarest type of players you can find, the Non-Snake is a dying breed. This type of player has been around for at least two months and has a mostly accurate perception and idea of how a usual game goes like. They're commonly found out through the fact that they never betray allies they make, and while being suspicious sometimes, their idealism sometimes may prevent them from acting upon that - though it must be said that this usually evens out due to their popularity in the community. Additionally, this type of player refuses F2's when they have one already.

Example: nattless, Lelmoo, Zeezo, TennisBallBFDI2, eatemuptigs, Jellofish, Nooby, SirPerior, freshman, colours, SirAmelio, krista, arianna

Category 3: The Floater

An increasingly common type of player. Easily recognisable through the fact that they ally everybody Day 1 and sometimes possess more than 2 F2 deals, while still expecting to win a game and not be called a snake. They sometimes accurately perceive what really happens during the course of a game and other times blindly believe themselves to be in control when they're really just following an established majority. Some people belonging to this category are prone to making game-changing errors which sometimes involve snaking, though some will use their under the radar status to further themselves and their strategy. Furthermore, these players will usually get far ahead in a game, but not entirely due to their own volition.

Example: coolkidrox123, alexroberts, bryce1997, ImDory, Firestone, N1ed, Otherscott, hotjacket, FireDragonPrince, cjn104, Ginga, Jabzz, Nicol, Zero, Dariukas47, Dyl, ponds, rs1993

Category 4: The Control Freak

Vaguely delimited from Category 3 and Category 5, the Control Freak is usually characterised by having more than 2 F2's in every game they play (but usually a number higher than that), just like the Floater, but maintains a core difference in that they try to use the number of allies - sometimes 16 if it's a 16 player game, 18 if it's an 18 player game, etc. - they make to control a game. Another key trait is that this category is on average targeted more throughout a game than the Floater, due to the slightly higher strategic quality they display. This is the farthest category a human with an active heart can get to.

Example: Picante, LineLiar, HighSpace, karthikbk, Sports123492, powerofdeath, UltraAug, ryman, Cody, xSoniaNeverMindx, matt, cinnanie, JacobV, PotatoPlayer

Category 5: The HardCarry

The most snakey type of player one can be. People belonging to this category usually have lost their heart at some point during their life. They're a form of the Control Freak on steroids - there are games where they can F2 half of the game, thus usually trying to "play both sides" and engulf everybody in a game in lies to the point where you're beginning to question your own existence. At their most effective output, the HardCarry can sweep games while destroying their reputation in the community due to the amount of lies they've said and the amount of F2's they've made. Be wary of this category.

Example: HardCarry, Voice, Moomo, Goldd96

i agree with cjn about broadening this up a bit. i think you need to make a circlejerk snake and add quite a few people from the non-snake and floater snake there


>31 people in non-snake and floater snake category

>cammy is calling out krista and arianna

As i said in my first comment i was told about these comments i haven't bothered to take the time to read so i guess that was ignorant of me. You know fine well it was either Arianna or Krista who sent me the comments. It was mentioned in a group chat and I asked about it. Anyway my comment was directed at Cammy's comment for the sly dig towards them rather than just outright say "Oh move Arianna and krista from the non snake category and make a circlejerk one" Cammy's comment was directed at 'circlejerkers' kandice, and from what i've heard its not the first dig towards them so its obvious as to the comments intent. I personally don't know why people are getting upset over this thread but if people are why not just delete all the comments and remove the examples and call it a day.

michael gives no about survivor


I care to differ, Michael clearly gives yes about survivor.

arianna and krista, if you feel like i'm taking digs at you, you're wrong. i don't know how what i said even was a dig at you two and you're assuming it was. if that's what you guys have made up in your mind then whatever, it is what it is. my suggestion was only to make those two categories less crowded. i rarely see either of you anymore and when i do it's not for long at all. i haven't played any survivor games in a really long time and have no idea if either of you have, or if your gameplay has developed or whatever. regardless, my comment wasn't a dig at either of you, and if you think it was that's your own insecurity.

I barely come here anymore so i don't know what the game is like these days but i was obviously told about this forum. Who really cares if people circlejerk? Krista and Arianna are best friends so of course they are going to ally each other. This was just a way at making a dig at them for no apparent reason. Have we not moved on from the bitchiness? I personally used to circle jerk in survivor games all the time lol. One person i circle jerked with cammy, was your friend annajane so please also add her to that category. Funny you can call arianna and krista out but not her? Also im pretty sure if you ever played anymore and not just sit in chats you would ally annajane michael etc. Your comment was an unnecessary way to cause drama.


oh lord. i like how this is suddenly myself calling out arianna and krista when i didn't mention either of their names. i was suggesting adding a circlejerk snake and suddenly it's krista and arianna against the world. i don't care about people who are considered a "circlejerk snake" i literally just suggested adding the snake category so the other two categories weren't so crowded. it wasn't even a drama fest until you guys took a joke to heart. yes, what kandy said was f*cking funny, and if y'all have no sense of humor and want to turn this into some big cry baby fest feel free. it's not all about you guys and you're looking like fools.

edit: to add, michael gives no about survivor and anna rarely does anything on epicmafia anymore. if they played, then yeah, i'd probably ally them. would it be considered a circlejerk? yes. i don't care.

king cobras: the ones who flare up and start drama (posting whispers, calling people out etc) in order to distract from their own snakehood



saying hi to my gay fams out there, i see you.
sometimes you need someone to start drama to get the game going!




Spoiler
anyone seen this movie? lol

John, where do I belong ;)


Well you're new but you're actually good and loyal. I'd still put you in 1 but not for a long time.


Hey! I have been playing for more than 1 month!

There are people in there who don't fulfil the one month criteria :p

That was also partly satire on my part. :*

But you'd definitely be a good fit for 1 or 2 regardless.

Who sent for you? Arianna or Krista? Either way, If you had taken the time to actually read the comments, you would notice that we were talking about people who were placed in Categories 2-3. Why would Cammy feel the need to call out AnnaJane when she's in neither of those categories, or another category for that matter?

I'm struggling to understand why people are taking this thread so seriously - should I be mad at JohnBatman for putting me in Category 4 and calling me a controlling snake? Should I call him out for starting unnecessary drama for creating this thread in the first place? Please. Some people are too sensitive for their own good and should try to find a way to switch up their gameplay if the truth about it bothers them that much.
