Can someone explain the new fervor/asceticism/instinct/patience split?

This be Troll's doing because patience was trying to be two things at once in Troll's opinion.

Fervor be as described in the OP. Asceticism be largely unflappability/lack of fervor.

Instinct be the willingness to jump to a conclusion with limited information/call the day done when it be done. Patience be the idea that more information will help your reads and that the days should generally be used to their fullest.

Vi would put better words to those, but that be what Troll be using them as. Troll describes the asceticism/patience split as internal vs. external, though that no really applies to the fervor/instinct counterparts so well.

I think this is where I'm at

Notably I think I was much closer to Justice and Solism when I began playing, but I've moved towards Mercy and Syncretism over the years
Will and Fervor are definitely the ones that describe me, though

Your words work out pretty well. I don't have any objections to how you described them.
Everything you say and do matters. People will respond in ways you may never see. May those responses be what you intend.

Waiting for the day I can come back and mod games.

And now Troll has been thinking about how to use these in a game all morning. Troll thinks Troll has the bare bones for a 2 player asymmetric Mafia Scum, the Card Game. It would use day phases similar to Twilight Struggle, but with events that use the stats for players for checks/challenges, and night phases that would be a token/bluffing type game. Troll will take that discussion/brainstorming session elsewhere when Troll has time though.

No, no.

It won't work unless you submit an image.

I didn't consider what would happen if people have an avatar with dimensions less than 100x100, I'll do something about that later.
