Rawr?

So yeah, I basically stay in the same MP room when I play. Most of my friends know it's called "Rawr?".

At the time I made it, I had no idea it was so generic. I mean, now when you glance through the list of rooms there is varying version of Rawr type rooms. Mine is, I'm glad to say, the only one with a question mark in it so it's usually easy to find.

But I didn't make it to sound generic. I was sitting there for a split second rolling all sorts of titles through my mind. Flipping through the phone book of my mind, you could say.

I didn't want to sound conceited, but I didn't want to sound like I sucked and attract a lot of newbs (though I still attract a lot of newbs; they should post up an FAQ of some sort that you have to read before starting MP that describes how you can see the person who made the room's MP level). Therefore, I just randomly typed Rawr (which I'm sure is how those other rooms came up as well) and added a question mark.

The question mark was supposed to be symbolic by leaving the decision of my skill up to whomever plays me. It is a question, but more of a rhetorical one. And yet people always come in the room screaming, "RAAAAAAAAWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRR!" like I've begun some sort of initiation to becoming king of the jungle, and they're subtley reminding me that this jungle already has a king, bitch.
