Post in this thread with a positive, neutral, or critical observation of me and I'll post the opposite for you. Please state the category of your observation. If your observation is neutral, I'll reply with a neutral one as well.
I'll be writing all three for each person, so if you want more, you can give me more and receive more in return (this means that you can get up to 3 responses from me in this thread).
Example: A says "Positive. Cody is smart and observant." I will reply with something like "Critical. A is too easily influenced by other people."
I'll be gathering all of the observations that I write into a file somewhere and maybe making a wrap-up post to summarize them.
EDIT: Here is the file that I've made with all of my responses for everyone in the thread. If you're seeing this, then I'm only doing responses for those people that I feel like responding to from now on. There are a few people on the file that didn't post here for whom I wrote these observations down prior to posting the thread, so if you didn't post here and you're someone who knows me pretty well, you might be in there!

Positive: Great em player. Decent admin, as well as a good analyst.
Negative: I did not really like that you were often involved in forum controversies. Bad troll posting in the wrong situations.
positive: clearly intelligent neutral: while you have personality, the way you type doesn't show it. critical: u are/were a bit sensitive about your mafia skills
Positive: you are not judgemental and you do anything for your friends, you are a very very loyal friend which is a great trait to have. you're also very honest and trusting to your friends
Critical: you sometimes trust the wrong people which puts you in a bad situation, sometimes your loyalty to your friends is so extreme that you let them walk over you when you need to stick up for yourself and do what's right
Critical: I honestly don't know you well enough to say anything particularly meaningful here, but from my limited interaction with you I think the time you spent here in your more formative teenage years may have stunted your social development to an extent.
Positive: [Some of this is a bit speculative.] You have a pleasant, easy-going personality. You have a desire to influence others' lives for the better. You avoid making enemies, preferring to keep yourself out of petty internet arguments because you (rightfully) view them as not worth your time.

Positive - You don't flaunt your merits and you're a hard worker.
Negative - You don't seem to always think your decisions through in regards to how others might react.

Positive. I really enjoyed playing with you when your username was MapReduce, I rated your playing style, and I felt we got along quite well in those Jan 2.0 games along with RedVelvet.
Positive: You're honestly one of the sweetest people on this site you look out for your friends always an amazing admin and you always made me smile whenever we talk you're also a lot smarter than people give you credit for
Negative: Sometimes you can be very naive and blind to actions that are right in front of you and if you can't understand the answer you outright say the other person is wrong because you can't find that answer the right one in your head

Positive: im pretty sure you're a math / coding / everything genius and also you're a god in survivor games. not to mention you're really nice and know when to admit you're wrong
Neutral: we allied once in a survivor game but I'm not allowed to give any opinion since this is neutral
Critical: You trust your ability to judge people/situations properly way too much and ignore other's opinions even when they are far more versed or knowledgeable of said person/situation. This leads to lots of problems for you down the line when you realize you could have avoided them by just listening to others and setting aside your belief in your superior judgment.
1. You are good at reading between the lines, especially when it comes to people. You notice when things are being said and when "things are being said." You're also able to convey your understanding to other people with simple, effective language and draw them to your side.
Critical: Cold and calculating. You know that any action is of no consequence, so your moves are planned and maximized to what would suit you best. You criticize urself a lot when you make decisions based on ur emotions but life isn't a cube, u can slow down and it's not always played logically. You're allowed to make mistakes. Also add me back on Skype.
1. Your light, cheerful personality makes you easy to talk to. You're good at making people feel safe around you. You are able to carry conversations for a long time with your energy and curiosity, as well as engage other people by asking them genuine questions.
2. You posted goatse on the forums to get yourself banned from the site.
Neutral: You trust people have good intentions.
I actually pre-wrote all 3 for you before posting this thread so I'll just give you all of them at once.
1. You avoid speaking about issues that you are not informed about, preferring to make your own judgment and avoiding others' influence.
2. You identify as neither a he nor a she.
3. You like to talk about things that you really don't know much about as if you were an expert in the field.
Note the distinction between subjects in (1) and (3). The former usually involves social issues or problems that you may choose to get involved in, whereas the latter refers to more general fields of knowledge.
Positive: You are a really great em player, and was a very good admin as well. I think you took peoples best interests at heart when you did things. You're also really really good in vivor.
Critical: Back in my noobier days I found you kind of... intimidating, you always try your best at what you do, and because of that perhaps you can scare people off?
Positive: You're intelligent and have a wide variety of interests. You enjoy fun. I recall playing hipfire sheriff games with you and seeing you get hipfired on D1 over and over again, and never complaining about it.
Critical: You occasionally drag jokes and memes on for too long after they should have been dropped. You might not realize it, but other people have already stopped finding it funny and are just humoring you.
Critical: Your own interests will always be more important to you than those of others. You are cunning when giving the impression you are acting earnestly.
1. You are able to take an incredible amount of verbal abuse and retain your composure through it. This is a trait that I particularly admire because one of the maxims that my father has always impressed upon me is a Chinese one about the virtues of being able to tolerate other people to as great of an extent as possible.
Positive: very nice person to talk to and give/receive advice and all that. great friend to anyone close to you and very smart and level headed.
Neutral: you are a good mafia player
Critical: sometimes you are hesitant at putting your foot down and standing up for yourself before it's too late and act abruptly in situations where you get mad. also you try to please everyone when you know it wont always work
1. You respond well to criticism, both about your actions and character. Whenever I spoke to you about things that you've said or done that I felt were questionable, I didn't need to go out of my way to make it clear to you why you were wrong. You understood quickly and went about to fix problems by yourself, often without my prompting.
2. You have a light southern accent.
3. You behave questionably when someone or something upsets you. You say, sometimes do, things that you wouldn't otherwise do and later regret. Occasionally, the things that upset you are small things that weren't a big deal to others, but that you blow out of proportion.
Positive: You're very loyal and will do anything for a friend. You have no qualms about apologizing if you believe you're in the wrong. You're always willing to help anyway you can. Neutral: ur sleep schedule is wild Critical: You have a tendency to act in the heat of things, mostly mafia, and end up saying things you regret later on.
1. You are fiercely loyal to your friends and display a genuine interest in their well-being. You demonstrate this by being brutally honest with your friends, but in a compassionate way. It's almost a paradox, actually, which is why I think this is such a remarkable observation. Most people are either too upfront and direct with their counsel or lost in their compassion and fail to see valid criticisms of their friends, but you manage to tie together your keen insights and strong compassion into one coherent personality.
2. You don't eat enough, and when you do it's usually unhealthy.
3. You have a limited set of hobbies. Whenever I notice that you're distracted by something, that something is usually anime. I think it'd be more interesting if you had more interests so that you could talk to your friends about them.

Positive: You're too polite to everyone.. even if that person is after your life, saying random things about you.. you're thoughtful, you analyze things properly before taking actiom
Critical: You can get a bit stubborn at times once you're on to a conclusion
deleteddeletedabout 10 years ago
Positive: You are extremely easy to talk to and you are very friendly. You seem to be very gentle and easy going and those are all really good traits for a person to have
Positive: You have the best interest of everyone else on this site and you are a great friend. You are confident, yet not arrogant. From my observations of you in Survivor challenges, you're the type of person who would see a challenge and come back 3 days later after practicing on the challenge and be much better than you were when you first started. This seems to be your mentality for other aspects of EM as well.
Negative: Too trusting of others and expect the same level of trust from them in-return which just isn't going to happen over the internet. Because of this, you get salty/tilted easily. Probably investing too much time on this site. Also lowkey kinda thirsty :^)
