fferyllt.l: games are metaphors to bert
he speaks in terms of parallels to other games.
Nacho: that's an interesting observation
fferyllt.l: he's like that star trek episode with the species of spacegoers whose language consisted of metaphors. Probably my favorite TNG episode
I do the same
but not to the extent bert does

Don't know whether it is alignment fatigue or what, but I was expecting her to show more emotion being at lynch -1 and nearly lynched... some AtE maybe

Heck, you just said the current Paragon had you as town throughout most of the game. That should say something about your scumgame.

Doesn't feel right
In post 741, Bert wrote:Bert, only you" was a really really weird feeling. Reminds me of Cephrir in 527 where I kept reading as scum, and then she/he reached out to me, and yeah I'm really icky feeling about stuff like that so it's what it is.
In post 759, Bert wrote:Please don't do this. The last sentence is what I've said as scum multiple times. "I'll be a liability in LYLO, please lynch me first" =[
"Oh, lynch me, don't send me to LYLO." Please don't make me more paranoid about you, and no this paranoia is not manafactured. It's real just like mine was about Ffery in 1415.

SLOW START
MAKING AN EASY READ OR WHAT SHOULD BE ONE - and MAKING IT INTO A LONG WALL SNOOZE FEST (MONONOKE READ)
In post 636, Bert wrote:and you think you can just waltz in and say I'm scum. LOL I feel like Tammy in 527 having to deal with Majiffy (omg I could never do what she did and handle all that shit) so yeah I'm gonna go get some sleep now ughhhh
In post 826, Bert wrote:Then there's the waffling that bothers me, indecisiveness in sticking a vote, the same kind I portrayed in Castle when Desperado-Mantis went head-to-head.
In post 995, Bert wrote:notscience and Kaze are both burlesquing (new word that Ffery used about my game in Castle), so way more noise than substance
