do u still play poker

yes but local room used pandemic as a reason to shutter 90% of the tables and bring in slots instead. It went from 24/7 to monday-thursday 10am-8pm 10 max tables total. Pre pandemic they had 30+ tables running full primetime thurs-sun. Not including tournaments


now i just $%#! around online because i don't trust having my money on the unregulated sites, and the regulated sites arent open in my state.

The game that had boats, i was pooping when /ins for that event went out and returned to see flips. That's probably the most fun i had. There were split wolf chats and we didnt know other wolves, and i remember claiing some vig where I got CC'd by a villager but they thought we were both villa and that night i killed him and he killed one of the wolves on the other wolfteam so i went into next day claiming his kill and the other wolfteam believed it enough to try and dayvig me. that was a $%#!show that was enjoyable.

Game i did best in: villa: Anniversary where i killed effen at eod 1; then has retribution i destroyed the wolfteam day 2. Wolf: tvtropes. Both games on POG.

why is cassie mcfluff on top of aretes printer

what's something that you wish more people knew about you?
I have crippling social anxiety and sometimes believe people are trying to $%#! with me when they aren't that leads me into paranoia spirals

what's something that you wish fewer people knew about you?
nothing yet

what's something that a lot of people believe is true about you, but isn't?
I think i come off as more of an asshole than I actually am.

what is your most controversial forum mafia opinion
there is constant outside of game communications between people that runs rampant and has an affect on games but there is nothing that can be done to stop it.

what is your least controversial forum mafia opinion
no day protection

If I want to incorporate more action 1)add some omaha variants and bomb pots; 2) play with all antes and forced button straddle that is 5X big blind. So take a 1/2 game, and make it so everyone puts in a $1 ante and then a forced $10 button straddle and now your 1/2 is playing like a 5/10(similar to what hustler does on some nights).

There used to be omaha games in LA that had a thing called the rock(which was just a bunch of large chips stuck together) which was a forced button straddle that the winner of each hand had to put in which I thoght was a pretty sharp way to have the best players make more in the game since it gives the person who wins the most pots the best position more often. and since you make the most money from the dealer position its great and also makes the game bigger.

Funniest moment in ww?
That guy who tried to doxx reddboiler in the middle of a meme game. Thought it was part of the game until it wasnt

Best/worst roles you've designed?
best was the Icarus ITA shield where it made shots auto miss until it hit a certain threashhold where shots would then auto hit. Each day the threshhold would lower so after a certain point its useless.

worst- i regret not pushing harder about restricting this more, the thing in zelda that apoc had that basically killed everyone in a location each day(tldr version)

Best play you've made?
fake post restriction i made up in UD's tvtropes that let me dayvig people in the open

Worst bad beat in poker you've experienced?
When I was 21 in college I ran $25 up to $1500 in a weekend online and i felt like king $%#! so I entered a $1000 heads up game and ate $%#! hard. Not my worst loss overall but at the time when $25 was all the money in the world it was humbling. That same night at dinner out to eat with the girlfriend she wanted to "just be friends" and i told her "19.50" and she looked at me quizzically and said "19.50???" and i said "You owe me $19.50, friends pay half." and then she started crying. Oh the memories

How did you get into ww?

The 2+2 section I frequented at the time(low limit SNGs iirc) had a werewolf game that eventually lead me to POG.

whats the easiest way to get into poker?

would you recommend getting into it?

what is the best part about it to you?

why don't you play ww games very much anymore?

[bopolis]

whats the easiest way to get into poker?
tournaments. you go in knowing the max you are gonna lose and generally presents you with a good amount of play.

would you recommend getting into it?
yes if you can afford it. No if you can't afford it and/or are looking to make a living at it. It is much more feasible to do this as a hobby where you break even/make a few extra bucks on the side than it is to do as a full time job.

what is the best part about it to you?
I don't feel any anxiety when playing, even at a full table

why don't you play ww games very much anymore?

I find it hard to play without putting all my time into a game, and that combined with paranoia issues i think i've developed(not sure what i'd call it but that feels apt) makes werewolf not fun for me. I think one of the first timesi noticed them was that hedgehog game where I pushed on you that time. I think that had a large part of it that made me spiral in my head. In the subsequent years, when i play i found i ended up in that headspace more often to the point it was not worthwhile for me to play seriously.

best way I can describe it is that someone will say something and i'll take that thing and everything else they are doing and make it fit a narritave of where they are trying to come at me that when i'm not in that mindset makes absolutely no sense but when i am in that paranoid state it makes complete and total sense.

I think in-person is more fun but either works. The hurdle though to online play is getting money deposited which if you don't have regulated poker sites(basically NJ/PA/MI/NV are only ones with regulation) you will need to use somekind of bitcoin to deposit.

I think more about thread health and player experience


Best thing you learned from UD?

Don't read dvc during games

Best thing you've taught UD?

You'd have to ask him. I think things that would have once upon a time been snap modkills are now warnings but i don't think thats something i taught than it's just a result of changes from POG to MU over the years.

I stayed logged in because i'd alt+tab out and forget it existed. 50%+ of my hours in the game are probably because of that

It's still good
