Shindigs

Super different from anything else I've seen here. I have to agree that this is the first time a GFX here actually made me stop and think. Consider it as an actual art piece rather than "just a graphic", and think of what it meant to me and how I wanted to interpret it. That's a cool experience and it caught me off guard. So kudos for that!

And that's not even the best game he's had! Let's hope that fire can get us in as a wild card and upset the playoffs.

Great to see you back at it again. Team Clue represent!

@JardyB10First of all how dare you reveal my true identity?! Also I'm one year older than you. So not a young man, at least not by VHL standards. Now with that out of the way. Let's get to the actual post. Your experiences basically mirror mine, down to the point of feeling guilted into sharing. So that seems like a pattern with them. Probably what they were after. And I agree there were red flags all over. But just like you I saw those as a broken person lashing out and needing help. I'm nowhere near cynical enough to ever think they were anything else in the moment. But hindsight, yeah that's another story. Just manipulation like crazy. I've also wondered what parts were real. Who Kachur was in those stories, I mean what if Kachur was the brother? But even knowing all I know I still don't want to talk about it, really. That's what gets to me. Even though it was a damn made up character I talked to, I still don't want to break the trust of what was said in private (I have commented on things that had already been leaked though). Sure I had to share screenshots with mods as part of the case evidence, but even then it was the bare minimum. Like how can I feel obligated to keep the secrets of a fake person? That just blows my mind. But I can't help but feel that way. Even worse than that. I legitimately missed Erika, not Horcrux on the forums. But Erika in DMs was a different person (no shit lol). And as broken as they were we still connected in a way. Especially the way they left was just so sudden and weird, and really all signs pointed towards something really bad having happened. Then the ban thread just drops out of nowhere. I'm all about loyalty and trust, and when someone does what Kachur did. They are done. Add in my past experiences I have with people who manipulate to that degree and I just have to try to not feel anything about them as a safety mechanism.

Based on personal experience. Something like this can make the league experience quite a bit more enjoyable right off the bat. Go #TeamClue

Correct, we have a couple forwards who are going inactive, whose spot we'd love to have @Normus6 fill instead for the end of the tournament. I believe some of the other GMs are in a similar spot and they should also be around with offers shortly.

I'd probably read that book. That was a solid solution, all things considered. Meanwhile in Team Clue in the JST we have the exact opposite situation. We have the runaway best PK in the tourney but then we have things a bit all over the place. Defensive numbers are pretty sick though.

Didn't know VHL did those "year in review" things. Glad to have found it.

I completely agree with this 100% factually correct statement, and I'm happy to hear you finally announce it in public.

Can we put in a copyright strike for the mention of clue at the end? Also has anyone seen about rescuing @JardyB10 from @nurx basement dungeon guest room yet?

Thank you so much for the nominations. I don't usually get emotional, but some of those quotes really got to me.

I didn't quote it. So technically doesn't count as a real reply

Shindigs specialized in Mind control. So now you know why I have so many reactions.

I mean I was considering it, but then I would have had to name it Sam. And it'd just get weird at that point lol. The answer I gave (Ravenlord) is just a meme from the Shadowrun campaign that lead to both my username and my player name. Shindigs was a Raven shaman and Ravenlord was his sidekick, as well as a made up Cyberpunk-hipster-metal band.

If a ladle counts that's obviously #1. Which would be Samson the ladle, the one and only tiktok legend. But if we don't count inanimate objects. I guess a Raven named Ravenlord. Yes Ravens can make actual pets, but it's an absolutely horrible idea and should never be done. Which is exactly why I think it sounds like a swell idea.

Even more competitors, I see?

Aim to beat the JST drafting speedrun record!

Recent JST performances seem to lend a lot of credibility to this statement. With 5 fights and 4 wins in 6 games. After a somewhat tumultuous start to the JST tournament Payne is sitting on a cool 63 PIM in 6 games. Scouts are hoping that this may be a sign that he's "Getting it out of his system" in time for next season.
