Cool dude, helpful, tried to help me best he could when I needed help with configuring hotkeys. When no solution could be found, said that they would keep looking and notify me if any solution was found.

Heavy lifter, cheerful, quick to learn and ask about things they don't know to do better by players. Has been a brief but hopefully continuing pleasure to admin with on Manny.

I had the pleasure of being an admin candidate at the same time as DuffelBag. They take careful consideration of the facts during tickets and were a great person to learn along side of. Also a consistently positive player when encountered in game.

I had brief interactions with Duffy and they were great. In fact I was so surprised at how chill and polite they were that I said as much in an ahelp:

2024-04-26 00:19:50: Ticket Opened by theduffelbag: Hi, can you give me your side on the story regarding you beating the clown down into crit? I'm just investigating for now
2024-04-26 00:20:07: Reply from matrixone: Sure, he trespassed and stole my plumbing device so I beat him to crit and took him to medbay
2024-04-26 00:27:44: Reply from theduffelbag: Copy copy, just try to at least order the clown out or to stand down before going straight for the physical approach when you want them to sod off. They shouldn't have been doing what they were doing, but immediately beating them down to a pulp isn't very adherent to the standards of escalation. I'd like to clarify that you're not in any trouble for this but just to go for a verbal warning before a situation like this arises
2024-04-26 00:28:43: Reply from matrixone: Thanks. You seem pretty nice, it's often a very different tone. I'll use my words next time (though he didn't say a word when he trespassed and stole, so I felt it appropriate to do the same).
2024-04-26 00:29:20: Reply from theduffelbag: Oh don't get me wrong, it was a very appropriate response, it's just good to give them a chance to back off before it reaches that point

When I had rough interactions with other admins, I looked through all my tickets and the above one with Duffy stood out as the lone positive example. He seems to give off "good faith energy."

When playing in shifts Duffy also seems cool, he was a busy captain but made time to chat with an assistant and even took the meds I gave him. Just generally left a positive impression on me from every interaction we had.

surprised it took this long for him to become admin
he's pretty cool but the problem is whenever i see him i want to throw rotten eggs in his direction. i dont know why its just completely unrelated to who he is as a person since he's really really cool

without putting *too* much pressure on him, rhials is the reason i ever played this game for more than 2 weeks when i returned. his love and appreciation for the storytelling and improv theatre in this game is what opened the path for me to see the same in it too, and the adventures we had (and still have!) together will forever be something i hold dear and close to my heart. he's the captain of manuel and a great admin who is a gift to this community and i'm thankful to have him here.

also, he's the only person who can rip a full thc cart in one pull and then win a rev round as captain

One of my earliest memories of /TG/ is of Rhials and Dendy stealing my brainrot juice as I was trying to learn virology, and dying because of it. They were very prevalent in the time I was joining, and (at least what i recall) were a little bit away from becoming a cult of personality on manny. Now uh, theyre both admins? Dont steal my brainrot juice again, please. I'm just glad we have them both on the team, as they were probably the 2 best statics to see on in that strange time of metagang-heavy manuel. As an admin, I havent have much experience with Rhials- but theyre usually decent at pitching in on the bus, and from the tickets I've seen they're consistently professional, but friendly.
overall: SUCKS
