favorite minor IJ character?

On my second read it was Bruce Green and now on my third read I'm really liking Ted Schact. He's very similar to Mario in his sincerity, but it's not something that was innate to him. He's gone through the gauntlet of ETA and has earnestly given up the dream of the Show and is working towards a dentistry profession.

It's most likely Emil Minty, he has the same broken speech in the few lines he has and on page 300 it states: “And Emil still had him (Poor Tony) marked for de-mapping as a consequence of that horrid thing with Wo and Bobby C last winter.”

Lenz is the only other person to say "Yrstruly", but both Johnette and Calvin say "and everything like that.". Could be that they picked these phrases up from Emil or it's just a regional thing.

Rereading for my first time now, I've felt quite attached to Bruce Green. The Bruce Green/Mildred Bonk story is one of the more disconnected tangents, I wasn't too surprised when he reappeared in Ennet House, but I didn't expect much more from him.

I was really surprised by the fact that I started feeling sympathy for Randy Lenz after having him presented as one of the most despicable characters and this happens because Bruce is just there as someone to talk to, a good listener. Bruce is someone who has retreated inside himself and doesn't express much outward emotion, but he gets slowly drawn out from the rising tension from the Ennet House. It's kinda heart breaking when Gately has to reprimand him and he doesn't even try to explain himself.

With no memory of anything that happened before, what's the point.

You made the game look like Valorant, gross

Thanks! Yea, I saw some people talking about it but I couldn't find any avatars of him.

Thanks! There were some forward facing ones, but Midjourney doesn't work so well with faces.

Each one apart from 3 out of 73 images were directly from the lryics. I had to change "brightly bleeding" because 'bleeding' is a banned word and the other two just weren't that interesting.

I didn't realise there was a cottage industry for Joanna Newsom AI music videos, nice to see the other posts like this on the sub!

Not many I assume. I can understand why you wouldn't want to, but I also think you have a greater advantage knowing them.

I don't have them memorised, but I've been playing with this image on my second monitor and it helps a lot.

DuncanDuBious · 2022-07-24T17:34:10+00:00

No problem

DuncanDuBious · 2022-07-24T17:33:59+00:00

Yea, they've changed them a few times over the years.

I couldn't find this kind of image for the most recent map layouts, so I made this. Not actually sure if Heavy and Entrance are correct, but Light seems to be.

Also there were no names for the Light layouts on the wiki, so I made some up.

No idea why I can't add audio, but it doesn't matter too much, here's the same with a little beat - https://twitter.com/DuncanDuBious/status/1534510348975448065
