*checks*
Maybe the topic is stalled out because @Drakeryn doesn't want to do his own bio. Which makes sense. He's pretty measured when it comes to talking about himself. Despite being mostly above the fray, he enjoys being well-liked and doesn't love ruffling feathers. He likes competence, dislikes whining, and mainly likes to see competence and intelligence rewarded and acknowledged for its own sake. And he is a competent guy, so he'd rather not toot his own horn to build his street cred. Drak tends to feel that you are what you make of your situation, which plays somewhat at odds with his existence on B8. There are very few objective measures of success on B8, since most of them depend on external validation - whether it's mafia, User of the Year, or Mercs. Drak likes watching the machinations of the politicking, but for the most part his personal strategy is to stray away from it. It's also why he tends to excel at the stuff that isn't explicitly political - creating user bios, or designing fictional backstories, or performing administration, or drawing neat avatars. I like Drak as a student of the board. He knows how to make someone feel appreciated - or not. --- yet all sailors of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness ...

Lopen
I was hung up on this one because I can recite all kinds of facts about Lopen, but none of them do anything to capture the essence of Lopen-ness. Finally I decided to just embrace it and give you a trivia dump, after which I shall let Lopen express his own essence in his own words. i miss lopen 1. Known for BOLD contest predictions 2. Has a longstanding rivalry with Leonhart over contest predictions (though, win or lose, Lopen's are always more outlandish) 3. Has more GAME FUEL than Luster 4. Recently named Best Debater of Board 8 by an unbiased topic of his peers 5. Also does the best promos 6. Raiden fanboy 7. Seymour fanboy 8. X-Death fanboy 9. Knows how to spell X-Death's name properly 10. Ilya fanboy (this is a cute and pop genocide of love!) 11. Likes tsunderes 12. Dislikes weak-minded/whiny/helpless characters/people 13. Allergic to pigpeople (HGR got him to download Umineko while drunk, but then he sobered up and refused to play it) 14. Ships Rin x Shirou 15. Racist against slimes 16. Not a conservative 17. Or wait, maybe he is a conservative? I can never keep this one straight 18. Not a fan of cooperative board games 19. Not a fan of League of Legends but he GUESSES he might play a game just because there is absolutely nothing better to do 20. Dante is sorry for the jungle malzahar incident, please come back Lopen Lopen: the glory days So GenesisTwilight was #2 in the declaration order. Lopen said 'hey gen declare on me and I will TOTALLY forfeit' and everyone else said 'lmao don't do it' so, of course, Gen did it.

interlude: book recommendations
aka I was reading instead of doing writeups these are mostly for book club people and people who have rec'd me books in the past. so if you didn't get a personalized rec then my rec is Six of Crows - Leigh Bardugo. or really any of the other books, they're all great Kanzaris (possibly a group read with trdl, or anyone else who likes unassuming protagonists The Library at Mount Char - Scott Hawkins @tabiicat42 & @digiiiiiiiii group read: The Dream-Quest of Vellitt Boe - Kij Johnson (digi was the guy who recommended Valente's Deathless to me. The Dream-Quest of Vellitt Boe has the same kind of lyrical quality to its world. Also Vellitt Boe is, like, future tabi or something) @Maniac64 (since he rec'd me Mistborn) (I know everyone recommends Mistborn, but Maniac came first): The Knife of Never Letting Go - Patrick Ness numbers: The Girl With All the Gifts - M.R. Carey (ft. a better ending than TLoU!!!) SD: (this one isn't too weird, I promise) The Fifth Season - N.K.
