Do you all think about the game so much, to the point that, in your brain, at least, you are like, taking for granted that you actually already posted something to the game?

Like, you compose a text on the phone to someone, and then, never ever actually hit send, but assume that it is sent, regardless, and then act on, and after that?


I'm not sure if it is "Meta" or otherwise "breaks" the game. [[I'm really not sure what counts as breaking the game anymore, anyway.]] Or if it is gilding the lilly, or if it is diminishing returns, or if "" It's the economy, stupid! * "" but a collage of all of the above kept me from voting AA.

At the same point in time, all of the above, while collected into each other, is also wholly separate from the FOS that I threw on AA, owing to my Meeko-ness. That is to say, at that point in the day, my FOS had effectively fallen off / lost it's mojo baby, yeah... While still valid, I didn't actively consider it in case building, given the game state later in the day, and with the votes on AA.

Just.

At a point in time, it's obvious, innit? Realistically, not sure what my vote would have added.

*This is how I mean "economy" one problem, per se, AA needing a sub out, and the votes on them, ... solving the other. And in that, what really, really can be gained from yet an extra vote? Especially if that vote would mis-inform analysis later?

I actually had a chance to look up "Cocksure" as in that oft repeated post on Facebook, that smart people are paralyzed by doubts, and idiots are only too cocksure to do shit, that blows up in their face.

Read into that as you will.

Thoughts on not commenting and not acting, sure.
Decision? That's a degree or two too .... sharp. Please to put the fangs away.

I'll remind the game that I effectively also missed EOD as well.


I'm sure I've said this here (or you know, in our playgroup's games, if over on Dope) at least once before. ::: I like "Law & Order" [[And super stoked that it's coming back next year]] .... but damn, with my ADHD, if I miss 4 seconds of it, I might was well change the channel, because, short of DVR, you are lost trying to piece that plot line back together if you miss something.

And so it is, if you miss the _one_ clump of posts that each Day seems to have. Like, it's nothing. nothing. nothing. OHMYGODAWHOLEBUNCHOFSTUFFALLATONCELETSALLPOSTRIGHT NOWLIKEOURLIFEDEPENDSONITOHMYGODANDTHROWINAFEWVOTE SWHILEWEAREATITOHMYGOD! nothing. nothing. EOD.


And it's like. if it was more even paced, yeah, I could get on board more with it.




Finally, crucially, I blame that I have now been up for 20 and a half hours. I know this doesn't make sense, some of it, even for me. But, short of not having sleep in that interim, I can't point to drink or substance. I mean, I finished off my Fireball like, 8 hours ago. It tasted better, like I had sinuses or congestion. Thankfully, nothing else is going on.... but I am public facing and in retail.... so.

But yeah. That's where I am, currently, and why I am currently. Clear as Mud?



This is Meeko's post about his inaction. I read it after all and think it's probably NAI for Meeko, at least from what I've seen from Meeko anyway. It actually kind of makes sense. I understand about being frozen into inaction, especially in this game. So eh.
