There was a thread back on DA that a number of people I've spoken to have said is their favorite DA thread, and after a third of a decade of it being gone, it's time for it to officially come back.

How does this game work? It's no different in its idea from before. Each response to this thread will describe a feeling/emotion/sensation/urge/etc. in their spoken terms, but before that, in the same response, said response will indicate if the three responses before it are relatable to them or not, using a +1 to indicate relatability and a -1 to indicate unrelatability, in the order of the responses (so you don't have to spell out "I relate/unrelate to that response" for every response you're referring to). So you might have a +1 -1 +1 (for the third, second, and then immediate responses before your response) and then below that the next spoken feeling/emotion/sensation/urge/etc. which implies this game is meant to pick up steam after the fourth response (though the first three can give one or two +1's or -1's if it wants).

First person begins when they're ready.

Feeling like a minor mistake in something you made from long ago is glaring you in the eye out of sensitivity of immersion.

+1 -1 -1

Frustration towards compliments that make reference to your growth or character development because it feels like they're claiming victory over having tried to alter you according to their vision of how you should be at the expense of the true you.

Feeling like your outlook of something changes depending on what language you contemplate it in.

(also side note, growing up is not a linear process for everyone)

-1 +1 +1

An urge inside of you to specifically say something awkwardly regrettable, as if there's an instinctively repressed part of you that doesn't align with a filter that wants to fight it.

Feeling like there are certain memories of yours that you have a hunch may have been of dreams or false memories of events that you can't figure out which one it is, be them real or not.

(unrelated but I heard the above thing about awkwardness can be remedied by a good protocol)

A certain warm anticipative feeling of embrace just upon realizing that you relate to people who by anyone else would be alienated.
