You thought MeanTime was bad? You ain't seen nothing yet. This meter goes from 1 to 10, although anything beyond 7 has a layer of dust on it (it's hard to get higher unless you're saying something about someone to their face).  It also has a little bell at the top, much like one of those old 'test your strength' games.

It is also occasionally used by the speaker, after the comment is made, to serve as emphasis.

Technically, it is a global action on the [wiki:MUD MUCK], used with the prefix mean, and otherwise treated as a pose action.  A common use is mean dings!; which returns The Mean-O-Meter dings!

Historically, mention of [wiki:Elephant Bet] or ["Becca"] activates the Mean-O-Meter shortly afterwards.

The Mean-O-Meter dings!  9.5!
