Wiggle wiggle wiggle
Gender things don't really change that much, a lot of the time. I don't know about Wiggles's case in particular though. I personally don't take gender of others into account when playing since it's very frequently played with when selecting a character. Apparently Kindred is a female character but it only got mentioned to me like once that people were calling me "she".Going to be getting progressively less and less active onsite due to work schedule, but still very accessible over Discord (find me in the MS Discord!).

1) Kindred is two characters, one male and one female, but most people call them "she" instead of "they".
2) It's also not just saying "hey I'm a chick", either. It's the specific way Wiggle was playing it, like a ditzy girly girl.

"I'm pretending to be a first time player
AND a somewhat ditzy female
there's no way this strategy can backfire"
Basically the opposite of everything that's ever good for the game's health. Pardon me if this was said before, but playing like you're new to the game (and especially claiming as such) will actually turn out worse for you because it's really, really,REALLYfucking obvious who's new and who isn't. The only reason it worked for Xalxe is Seafoam is because no one had done it up to that point. Since Xalxe had won with it, now everyone's on guard, and since it's become a popular tactic, most people assume people who outright claim newbies are actually vets or are at least suspicious of it.
Add that claiming a newbie and pretending to be a gender you aren't makes you a bad trope of a character, and you've got a disinteresting character at best and an outright bad one at worst.- animorpherv1

I honestly don't understand how so many people like a character I thought was disinteresting and then basically went out of his way to offend people (after apparently having an entire conversation on WHY THAT PERSONA IS BAD)."Animorpherv1's posts are so powerful that prolonged exposure may cause vertigo, nausea, acute tinnitus, and in rare cases, death." - vonflare

Wiggles </3
I didn't notice Wiggles was pretending to be a girl tbh, but I did fall for the silly cute mostly hapless newbie thing though. I appreciate the thought, Ani.
People definitely take the gender of who they're talking to in account but that's a pretty long and complicated discussion.
It's probably because you cut Wiggles before.. like.. Toby Fox or R.E.M who were less interesting. Toby was funny but stopped mattering quickly. Wiggles caused someone to hold a grudge forever.. <.<I HATE YOU SO MUCH PLEASE GO JUMP INTO A FREEZING LAKE - Mr. Freeze

I never really thought of Wiggles as female considering his character choice was four men. If that was the intention, it was lost on me.
I personally don't have a problem with the cut, though, but I have a biased outlook. Wiggles' persona was so clearly fake to me that I really had no idea how to interact with him. Half the time I wanted to be like "Yeah, can we start talking like normal people now?" but I never went through with it. If it had been possible to vote him off instead of Toby, I would have.
Also he and Dr. Teeth voted for me, those bastards.- Chevre

I'm pretty sure Wiggles rejected the new wiggles band that has a women in it now in my conversation, so I'm also confused about that.Everything happens for a reason, except maybe football.

404. Wario (horrordude0215) - Mushroom Kingdom
-Well it could possibly come back and hurt me because they can choose to get together themselves and try to eliminate me instead
From what I can tell Wario could have done fairly alright, he seemed to be PMing people and trying to talk to them. But it seems like he made the mistake of after making alliances with a lot of people, sending out a PM that then informed everyone of this? It seemed like he was trying to play an open and honest game, but was way too open about his plans. And people don't really like to hear you're allied with absolutely everyone in your tribe.Xalxe: this is xofelf sometimes we call each other names and other times we share emotions

403. Hayden (T-Bone) - Unexpected the Expect
"*throws hands up in the air*"
Hayden was definitely in the game, but no one had much to say about him. He was primarily a gamebot, and instead of saying anything else, here's a word cloud of his confessional.

402. Mega Man (theamateur) - Destiny Islands
"Why should Light be good, and Darkness be evil? There is no difference between good and evil, and the only thing that matters is Justice. True Justice belongs to the person who believes in himself the most."
Mega Man's confessional for the most part, like his gameplay, appears to be an exercise in the bare minimum required to be considered a player, with a side of unintentional comedy. He says that "the most useless person" will go home next and then promptly goes home. He seems to intentionally avoid giving good answers to mod questions. However, there is one little gem in here.
After all of this near-zero presence, he's confronted with a choice between Light and Dark to do with the game and goes on a philosophical ramble about the nature of light and darkness. It's totally unexpected from everything else he's been doing and pretty funny, actually. It reads as though he thinks the mod account just wants to have a conversation with him. Still, it's two beautiful posts from a slot that otherwise didn't need to bother with existing. Thanks for playing!"I would prefer not to." --Herman Melville,Bartleby the Scrivener- Crazy
