[Advanced/Experimental] No Roles Disney Game - Game Over - Town Wins!

[Tyler Glembo]

Lol I literally just ctrl v'd that because it was in my bin.

 

Best new DM game!   Show up in thread and just hit ctrl-v then post!!

That's really cool.  I'm still trying to define my goals.  I want to work with people and I really like psychology but I also have more scientifically and medically based focuses so I am thinking about med school and then maybe subfocuses in neurology.  I've already got a study I am working on that looks at how growth hormones on affect myleniaton and the effect this has on immature functions.

[Lenlo]

Seriously considering scrapping my plan and just hipfiring Len tonight for being a jerk.

D: What I do to deserve this?

 

AJ's opening move was null for me, but I'm liking his play through the rest of the thread.

 

 

 

Lenlo really stuck out to me for "forgetting" how intensely Amega defended him ~20 pages back. Idk how you forget something so blatant, especially since it continued for so long.

Cause I dont think it was as blatant as you think. There are also plenty of others who defended me, so whats your problem with me forgetting his?

[Tyler Glembo]

Immature functions?  Like mis-directional firing of neurons to create hallucinations, stuff like that?

[Darthe]

Like the sorts of things that we grow out of due to maturity that are biologically driven.  A lot of psychology marks stages of growth where myleniation clears pathways that inhibit these mature functions.  Social grace is a good example.

See?  Physical process, affected by physical health and development.  Causes severe mental differences.  Completely unstudied and I am a year or so into it.  This is my baby and I hope that it becomes something or that we at least get an answer.

[Tyler Glembo]

I mentioned neuronal mis-directional firing to create hallucinations as it is very prevalent in younger growing minds (hence vivid imaginations) but typically is under control in adults.  Of course, if you want to experience hallucinations that you swear are real you can control this effect by wearing a magnetic field inducing helmet. 

 

Interesting that you mention social grace, I would have thought of that as more of a learned behavior than having to deal with brain physiology.

[Darthe]

Not the grace itself, the ability to discern what constitutes it versus what doesn't.  

[Darthe]

The bit about hallucinations is fascinating.  Do you have any research you could link me to?

[Darthe]

Lily is going to get more points than some of the players today.  

[Tyler Glembo]

I had only heard about the helmet from a friend.  I'm looking it up now and it appears as though the research, done by Michael Persinger, was unable to be replicated.  Sigh, there goes another fantasy of mine...but I'll keep digging and see if I can find anything else out.

I don't think I need to post another VC.

I thought maturity mainly had to do with development of the pre-frontal cortex.

[Tyler Glembo]

From what Darthe linked to it seems he is working on understanding the actual biological mechanisms associated with that development and then correlating/looking for causitive effect in psychological phenomena

[Tyler Glembo]

Though I'm sure Darthe could say it better...

You and Wombat are tied.  I went from dead freakin' last to upper half.  Giggity.

Kind of what is said below.  With that in mind I am currently in the process of building research on one particular aspect of mental development.  I would like to claim to be an expert on neurology but it isn't the case.  I'm learning in a utilitarian manner because I had an idea based on limited understanding of a subject and so far it is actually holding up which has proven to be cool.  This started in a manner that was purely academic.

That was my way of saying post a VC for free points.

 

I think I have my goal number of points for the day and I can continue to get them so it seems okay to me to give points to someone who looks good. Besides, I don't know if they'll count since we don't need a VC now.

[Tyler Glembo]

Indeed. But with that I'm going to bed.  Gotta get up for work in the morning and all that jazz.

[Darthe]

Okay then.

You heard of neurofeedback?

[Alanna]

So, not meaning to interrupt or anything, but did you guys actually talk about anything game-related the past 4 pages? Do I need to even bother reading through all that?

[LilyElizabeth]

 

I also have - what I think - is a pretty decent plan in place 

 

Looking forward to seeing what comes of it.

 

PM it to me. I wanna know.
