Time: The basic and easy to define archetype.

Casual: These gamers often log less than 20 hours of play time a week

Core: The bulk of gamers, the play usually between 20-30 hours a week

Hardcore: These gamers manage to log 30-40+ hours a week. I fit into this genre.

-SubCore: Gamers that would be hardcore, but are restricted on time, because of parental/girlfriend/boyfriend interference.

Lead: These are the gamers you see at the top of the leaderboards, and statistically, for most games, these people work less than 20 hours a week. for most games this is the line you don't want to cross.

The Komaeda Archetype 

In a similar vein to a Tumblr Sexyman, The Komaeda Archetype is a character comparable to Nagito Komaeda from the DanganRonpa (who this is named after) franchise. Komaeda got his fame in the fanbase from his tragic past and his personality easy to be pure tween goo-goo eyes bait. However, due to the writing of his character and the games in general, Komaeda is relatively divisive amongst the fanbase with fans either loving him or hating him.
Typically, a character who falls under The Komaeda Archetype fits under these fours tropes:
- The character plays a major role in the story
- The character plays an antagonistic role but is not originally presented as such.
- The character is morally grey; they have a justification for their actions and/or reason for redemption
- The fanbase of the character’s source material is split on their options regarding them; fans either adore them or despise them
Although more factors can contribute to a character being a Komaeda, these four are the most important determining who does or does not count as a Komaeda.
(This concept originated from Tumblr user @HellTabby)
Honestly, I wish I could like character name, but you can really tell that they were written with The Komaeda Archetype in mind.

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
