Triangle is red, Beach is blue
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

I can see four possibilities.

Micro (as a prefix meaning Small) points to DWARF.
I think "Microstate" is a word meaning tiny country, pointing to STATE.
Micro as a reference to microwaves points to COOK.
Micro as a reference to microseconds points to TIME.

I feel pretty confident about DWARF. I would feel more confident about STATE if I were sure that I was remembering the terminology correctly; I'm not. Not sure about COOK and TIME, but I don't see anything else that I can connect to the clue.

As an additional point towards COOK - "Fare" could also refer to food, I think? (not referring to Fair food, either.)

Like DWARF. Like STATE. Thiiiink I like COOK with fare too. Other places I'd like to look are LASER and PART. Talk more when not pushed for time. Don't think I like TIME.

I like DWARF, COOK, and to a lesser extent STATE. I think I like LASER better than TIME, but both are good possibilities.

What draws you to PART, Mizzytastic?

I think the fact that you can do tiny, precise work with certain types of lasers. It's certainly not the word I'd guess first, though.

I think it's this, but it was more a gut reaction than anything from me (and so low priority - I'm just spouting my thoughts as they happen). Also because "microwave lasers" are a thing

I like STATE and DWARF more or less equally, I’m very unsure what the third would be and propose we skip it unless someone thinks very strongly they have the third and can give a compelling argument for why

Tbh COOK honestly feels like it’s stretching here to be connected

Right now, leaning DWARF > STATE > COOK > (pass) on my end.

LASER and PART both seem like stretches. If I had to do one of those two, I'd do LASER; I think it connects better to "Micro" specifically, as opposed to just any word for SMALL. (Thinking along the lines of microminiaturization work, based on what StrangerCoug said.) Think I agree about TIME probably not being the way to go.

And typing that monstrosity of a word out made me realize something - spell-check didn't flag it. Didn't flag microstate either, which means I probably am remembering that word correctly.
