Yes. I looked at your avatar next challenge. I phrase things to plant impressions. I look over each player after elimination and try to improve. Anyway I should quit talking strategy now. |

Auru! Some people told me they were wary of you (don't remember who, maybe Dampe?) because they didn't know where you were standing in the grand scheme of things. I didn't want you out since we had a nice conversation going! And lol, the real princesses have been booted off one by one. Skull Kid is our one remaining hope.

Well nobody even mentioned the grand scheme of things to me in PMs, like, ever. |

I think I tried asking but maybe I didn't phrase it correctly.

I think I can see where you tried for it, in retrospect. Oddly enough after you told me where you were from, your English seemed to get considerably worse. With that stuff I'm really not a fan of people who try to get that out as a subtext. I like seeing people just flat-out saying that stuff. |

I understand what you mean, I was basically copying what people were sending me since it seemed to be how we were supposed to do to get this type of information. I think later in the game I simply dropped that and went for the 'Are you allied with XXX?' approach. As for my English, it depends on whether I decide to proofread or not as well as the amount of time I have. I'll be honest, the same happens with my own language. I'm thinking one word and typing another. Or I will forget words altogether.

FWIW Zelda, I would not have said you weren't a native English speaker from what I saw in your forum. Granted it may be easier to tell in PMs but *shrug* |

I think I'll have to try that latter approach when I next play. I honestly found too much of what do you think of such and such people. Also I never cemented any alliances last time until round 7 or something, which was an improvement from the time before. I possibly get accused of not being a native speaker by people because I don't proof read, although I don't think that has happened to my face, probably just blame any on the phone since I like to make big posts on it sometimes. (i decided to proofread this one, my phone made no errors.) |

Same for me, English is not my native language either so I always try to proofread my messages when I'm not too lazy. Often I feel like I've made some horrible grammatical error somewhere which gives away my identity.

I have not ran into a single player who I thought English wasn't their native language Ohhh man if I played this game in Spanish I'd be atrocious. So kudos to ya'll.

(it is my native language, if you're confused with me - I was making a comment that I think people would be more likely to think it of me than them, it's never something I actually like about) Fairly sure everyone I'm seen has been fluent in english, so there's nothing to actually compare towards. |

It was just weird how it was timed. Had you never made the "out of 20 points" comment to me I would never have guessed until your English dropped off after that. Hell, I'm taking French, if I knew how to type those god-damned accents we'd almost have been better off like that (And I'd just use Google Translate for what I don't know, they say it sucks but for individual words it's fine). |

Hey I just watched Snow Piercer (finally). Final thought was.... Has that bear been hibernating the past 17 years? |

My confessional posts were a little more detailed though, I take my time when it comes to writing them, so naturally I also try to make as few mistakes as I can. ^^ But thanks Farore! I try my best anyway! ![]() Bomber > Yay! I never realized you were European OR not a native English speaker. ![]() Zant > Lol, sometimes proofreading can be boring, especially when you have people sending you PMs left and right. As long as people get our general message, it's good! The direct approach kid of helped me though, I decided to ask Dampe if he had an alliance with Colin (not sure if he told the truth) so that way I knew from the individual's mouth whether he did have one or not. I guess it depends on who you're talking to, but sugarcoating isn't always the best strategy I guess. People were speculating on alliances and I was kind of lost so I just straight up asked everyone if they had alliances with others. ![]() Ruto > I could probably do it in Spanish too but you would clearly realize it's not my native language, haha! Auru > The quality probably dropped because we were talking about school-related things. It is somewhat of a problem for me to find an accurate translation for several concepts which do not exist in the US! And looking for something similar isn't always easy. ^^ I don't know how to type accents on a Qwerty but I really don't mind when people don't put them. Midna > Never heard of this movie! Was it good? |
