Eastern us.

Late late night early morning but addicted to phone checkups.

I have made one computer post this game. My play is evolving to be more phone based. I’m less good, but I find it fits into my life better.

California (PST).

When I'm done with class in the afternoon, so usually late at night and early in the morning.

99% computer post. It irritates me to type long posts on the phone, so I usually only respond on mobile to objective questions like these.
Call me whatever you want...

I was pointing out the TTT had already asked me about that post, I had already answered him (161), and TTTT had already understood the answer (163).

In other words, the repeat question is either a brain fart on an effort to appear active.

My first observation is that literally no one who's abbreviated my name this game has done so w/o typoing - which, um, rude tbh.

My second observation is that I find this post redundant. I can fetch the exact log in a bit, but one of the very first questions brought up this game had to do with people's play experience & playstyle, and albeit using different words had a p similar aim: not just icebreakers/getting-to-know-you junk, but to get a sense of the expected pace of this game & some possible outside factors affecting people's activity/playstyle.

To answer the q: I'm a teacher. I work 6a-5p, EST. I post from my computer, almost always in the evening (more flexible during the weekends), but I get email updates & follow on mobile when I have a chance to look at my phone.



As far as my current feelings go @T^4, I'm generally wary of players who motormouth & that has bothered me a bit abt CC's slot. To clarify: there's a clear contrast between compensating for your sub-out's cruddy contribution to the game & the sort of clumsy rapid-fire commentary we got from ClearClarity, which has felt almost cosmetic.

My position on TheASC hasn't changed.

I'm vibing p well w/ a lot of what @teacher's been saying recently, specifically w/rt TTTT and the question-repeating. Teach, you suggested that it might've been a slip-up from attempting to seem more active[x]--I think that'd be interesting to explore in the context of T^4's stated scumreadon ZoL (now Screaming).
