Run Your Own Mouthpiece Cat

The Three-Line Rule

Every strong wizard cat reply fits in three lines. Line one names the situation so the viewer knows what is going on. Line two is the reply that was not said. Line three is the cat going back to typing, which is the exit. Most failed clips come from people who keep adding lines after the punch, and the moment you add a fourth line the cat becomes a regular person with a problem.

Pick Your Default With the Game

• Run the five scenarios and note which tier you reach for first, before you think about consequences. That is your actual default.
• If you default mild for two and then table-flip on the hard one, your profile is "the diplomat who is not".
• Four table-flips in a row is not a strategy, it is a Tuesday. The paws-off-keyboard effect is there so you can screenshot it and send it to the person who made you do that.

What the Score Is For

The survival score is not a ranking of how spicy you are. It is a proxy for how often your replies are the ones that would actually survive being read out in the next 1-on-1. The table-flip scores highest because it is the least survivable. The cat knows. The cat is just saying it out loud, in paw form, which is the whole deal.
