GG all. Was a fun first game back.

Well, glad to know how everyone feels about me I guess (both from here + spec threads).

Don't worry. I won't ruin another game by playing in it.

You were fine. We talked about this. I think your game was 80 percent of the way there to a great game.

None of that is the impression I got from reading spec threads. Literally none of it.

It's pretty clear people think I ruined the game. That I'm the reason the game was negative in tone. That the fucking board being deleted would be a better result than me winning.

I swear I looked up Magic Kingdom a couple days ago to see how well I did.

You're thinking of Mushroom Kingdom.

Whoops. My bad.

Dan would have been edited like a slightly better Aubry. Hermoine well. Juno probably small growth edit before taking a turn for the negative. Like a Sierra dawn thomas or something

I was talking to a couple people post-game and much to my chagrin I think my game was shockingly similar to a Monica game. I think I probably get a similar edit to that maybe?

actually yea. I couldn't think of who to label you as but yea you were totally a Neat Lady

It's not a particularly flattering comparison, but it fits.
Refusal to turn on the winner, constant flirting to flip on every vote, emotional shit, and FTC argument mostly being "I'm nice."

Herm got to narrate moves and what should be happening a lot so even the villainous moves made sense from her perspective? I think it's easier to like someone whose thoughts you understand.
Oh yeah you nailed it, the lack of self-awareness was what annoyed me the most

At the same time, I think you can argue that having a false negative view of yourself is better than having a false positive view?

There are legitimate game consequences to having a too high opinion of yourself (see: Sherri, Russell)
I am assuming I'm just blanking on something, but have we seen the case where a player is punished in-game for not realizing how big of a jury threat they were?

Did I say that about Aria, or others? You would probably remember what I said better than I do and so I could be wrong, but there was almost no period in the game where I recall thinking I could beat Aria.

SensFan · Post Post #399 (isolation #11) » Sat Mar 11, 2017 3:19 pm

I don't read that as too high on my chances of beating Aria, but that's fair.

As for F4, there was more to that vote. It was a calculated risk that I viewed as necessary.

I remember that gif. I didn't think it was in reference to Aria but I could be wrong.

This is precisely my stance on this.

Survivor is, and has always been, a social game. This isn't chess, and I think it's a big mistake to limit what discussion can be had.

Sure. No argument from me.
