King Wilbert

After a relaxing week of making friends, playing pinball, and floating to the finish, I'm now a finalist in @cryptothegame_! Vote for #237! Yeah... right. That ain't me. Story time. It's gonna be a thread. 🧵

CTG: @cryptothegame_ - who wants some real strategy talk? #352 team aqua 🐬and silly friends 🫡 tl;dr in photos first off, no backstabbing! unlike the anon king account who committed to the bit and demanded sacrifices for protection (‘i require allegiance for sacrifice, i need names, those who hold power… those you’d be willing to eliminate!’). my approach was truly centered on the friends you make along the way! i was fortunate to have a friend in the og aqua tribe and as a group, we rallied behind “EeeeeEEEEEeeeeeEEE!” dolphin cries! some of us got on open discord chats during the voting period to organize and go for the easy eliminations (those not in tg or active). this was an early way to build trust and find the other organizers! then when several of us returned back to aqua after the swap (they had a much cleaner tg!!), it helped to form an even tighter bond. now let’s talk real-life hustle. this farcaster post resonated - ‘It’s low-key kinda BS that CTG challenges happen during peak work hours… devs pls do something!’ i felt that in my soul. between 6am calls with community managers in different time zones and late-night syncs at 11:30pm, i was juggling these challenges with actual real world responsibilities. thank goodness the voting times were meeting-free! i work in community in crypto. of course i’m going to have tg open 24/7! so while i wasn’t the first to crack the code (or let’s be honest, remotely helpful during peak work hours for the puzzles) i was there to be an organizer at night for voting, getting into voice calls and being generous with my emoji reactions in the chat! don’t let the cheerful exterior fool you, though; i can grind. i kept the averages up for all the games! made it to top 2 of the leaderboard before taking a break, and then when my tribe was like, ‘your score won’t be safe!’ we need averages above 200! i locked in for that final hour on sunday until my eyes went pixel mode, pushing myself to a respectable 223. and if that’s not dedication: i also shared every bit of intel i could (from public posts!) and encouraging stats - like aqua team having the 2nd highest builder score on talent protocol for extra encouragement 💪 through it all, our silly friends were wholesome and generous—sharing answers, resurrecting teammates, and handing around NFTs like party favours so everyone could chase high scores. we had a few scares - like a mysterious person in discord chat join suddenly (no one knew their name), leave shortly after (possibly after taking screenshots of us!) all while saying nothing! had a good laugh about it after. if you’re wondering how we really survived? that’s it: positivity, a sense of humour, and a willingness to show up for each other. so if you’re deciding who’s got the winning strategy, consider the underdog girl who balanced job calls with epic game time—and never forgot to send some dolphin emojis along the way.

Congratulations to Green tribe. All of you deserve to go to the finals. I couldn't be happier with this outcome. 🟢∞

There have been so many unoriginal, fake Wilberts but this has to be the most low effort, low intelligence and boring one yet. p.s. Suck my dick
