Your poem sensitively shows the unifying influence of a shared history.

Interesting and introspective, enhanced by the poetry form, figurative language ... and it also looks good on the page!

Gervic, I'm honored to play the game with you. In Game of Thrones Tyrion was accused of many things but throughout everyone rooted for him.

I love that. Whether good or bad, everything and anything can create beauty…or ugly, interpreted as another’s treasure.

We all have responses, value…just not control of the volume knob to this, or outside world…stifled, muffled, acting out incorrectly before hearing myself. #ampprobs in restricted space/company.

Fully engulfed in neurodivergent waters since and before my brother’s passing in February…with apertures of time and space expansion, unable to fill the void with myself these days.

I was 100% in, before I was swept out, but never gave/give up writing. It is the backseat I’m always relegated to sit upon, with all these voices posturing to lessen (attempt to?) the harmonies I desire to construct/provide, albeit ‘judgment free’. It’s never my right place or time, a kaleidoscope ever shifting from the slightest...

Into the blue again…


Don’t ever underline my correctly spelled words, Apple, mf-ers.

Good thoughts, sir. I'm currently so obsessed with a song, Eyes Closed by Imagine Dragons, that I find myself like a hammer seeing what nails I can ruthlessly apply the lyrics to *Laugh* your words about a cage and the four walls reminded me. Sometimes one has to retreat within oneself and fight internal battles. This can lead to the creation of new beauty to share and connect with others.

Take care *Heartg*

Cape Spear is a great place. Didn't have time to do much hiking around but saw the info about how close this is to Europe. Also went up SIgnal Hill at the mouth of the horbour. Spectacular view from there if you get a chance. Forgot where I ate downtown.

Hope your air connections are better on future trips.

Gervic, first and foremost, I apologise for bringing the spotlight to you yesterday. I'm beyond disappointed that this has happened again and I thought that history would not repeat. I stand by you and I believe that every single review is written by you. A bloody AI is incapable of writing such insightful reviews as Gervic has done. Come on! I can't believe you guys, whoever you are accusing Gervic of such stupid thing. Why don't you outdo him by reviewing more than he did and write better quality reviews instead of resorting to such atrocity? I'm sorry, Gervic. I stayed silent the last time. I won't stay silent this time. I'm way past the age of staying silent.

I like how you entered the Ouija Board as something of hope into the picture of what I would call a disaster. Beautifully written.

"Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I assert there's nothing inherently wrong with nostalgia."

Given the rise of restorative nostalgia, I'm inclined to disagree (and yes, I think this distinction is necessary).

In response to "I've been Accused.
Honestly, I wouldn't even know where to start with using AI. I'm sure if I had such a desire, I could figure it out.

My question is was there a specific accusation against you, or was it just someone threatened by a person who has spent his time focused on the task(s) at hand? Is this just a "fake news" suggestion? I've been in that focused zone before and felt a huge sense of accomplishment from my work.

Keep doing what you're doing, Gervic. Guess we'll cross any bridge we need to as it presents itself. I hope it isn't a unilateral thing.

Write On, my friend.

In response to "I've been Accused.
The accusations seem pretty rampant . As someone who also runs my writing through Grammarly to ensure the mechanics, syntax, tense, etc. are consistent, it’s a frustrating and disheartening thing. I believe there’s a stark difference between AI-generated and AI-assisted—a simple copy and paste in totality versus a “rephrase this to sound more professional.”

One only need to look at a person’s reviews in the past (before AI was even a thing) and see they’ve consistently been detailed and offered such feedback.

Don’t let this detract from all you’ve done and accomplished. Let haters be haters *Heart*

I'm so sorry this has happened, and I truly hope Gaby doesn't remove you from the games. You have worked so hard to write a ton of genuine, thoughtful reviews, stories and poems. You are a wonderful teammate, always jumping in and doing whatever you can to help our House. This makes me so sad.

As for motives, I've no idea. Anyone who has ever interacted with you will know that you get things done. You work incredibly hard, and I can totally understand how you feel undermined now. But, know that we, your teammates and the vast majority of GoT players know you would never use AI to write your reviews, or anything else. That's not in the spirit of the game. And, Grammarly? A lot of people use it. Even Word has a spell and grammar check that most people use.

I don't know. I'm so sorry *Heart*

This is clever. I like how you define those aspects of your narrator that speak to each other, so that the whole feels complicated by the metaphors.

My cousin and I have this shared connection, know our fathers and the trauma they caused, and understand one another. Your simple, lovely poem describes the feeling well.

What a great way to turn a breakdown into poetry! I hope the Ouija board pointed to a very low number!
