Investigating and quantifying the IQ gap between tabletop RPG DMs and players. Additionally, distinguishing between Critical Roll fans and normal people.

@WandererUber I watched a bit of critical roll and it was interesting to see how much the hot girls hated it and thought it was beneath them until it became successful and then they were totally with it

@lain Interesting.
I hadn't noticed that at the time, but it fits established incelian foid science and also I want this to be true so I'll just believe you.

@WandererUber there’s one girl on it who takes it seriously but the there’s one or two others who do this girlfriend type playing where they just do nonsensical stuff and say “whatever”

@lain I mustn't have watched for long enough then. They had terrible audio at the start of the first season and constantly clipped the mic. The dynamic range was too wide for me to listen to this while falling asleep and so I quit. While they were still in the mines below the first dwarf city, I believe. Fighting Umberhulks.
Obviously I wouldn't have noticed their facial expressions, what with my eyes closed and all, but I did hear this a lot before.
In my own games, a gf tagged along on occasion and she enjoyed it quite a bit, if I dare say so myself.

@WandererUber yeah I don’t think they were gfs, aren’t they all temporarily embarrassed LA actors?

@lain Voice actors, I believe. The DM is famously McCree, some did Fullmetal Alchemist.
The research proposal aims at investigating libtards separate from general population, and Critical Roll seemed a good proxy.
