    I think we should have a buddy system as well. Each intuitive be paired up with a sensor. Duality or activity. Either way, when the time comes it will save each other’s asses. I also want to recruit some duals from other quadras as well to make sure we have some influence from the other side in our circle.

    Alpha quadra is so comfy .
    The Barnum or Forer effect is the tendency for people to judge that general, universally valid statements about personality are actually specific descriptions of their own personalities. A "universally valid" statement is one that is true of everyone—or, more likely, nearly everyone. It is not known why people tend to make such misjudgments, but the effect has been experimentally reproduced.

    The psychologist Paul Meehl named this fallacy "the P.T. Barnum effect" because Barnum built his circus and dime museum on the principle of having something for everyone. It is also called "the Forer effect" after its discoverer, the psychologist Bertram R. Forer, who modestly dubbed it "the fallacy of personal validation".

    Guys, I have an idea.
    Everyone knows the world is now dominated by Gammas, and you know who are almost-gammas? Alphas!
    And that's our chance: we can hide near them, pretends we are also gammas like them.
    Gammas are too driven by profit, and don't have a time to stop and check a person nearby is actually their dual or conflictor.
    Then, we will wait until them start to rest (they hardly do it), and we can take the chance...

    I grew up in a Se/Ni/Te family.. I was the lonely alpha. I was wondering with my prior knowledge, if I could be your general? I know, I know...It's a big position, but I have much knowledge there.

    ^You don't become a General by asking to be the General. Rather, you just be the General.

    Well I'm an Alpha and was being polite. She doesn't know my history and I'm applying for the position... If she knew my history, I wouldn't have asked.

    I got a bunch of sleep, so my little iPhone battery indicator went from all systems red to 80% full. Not perfect, but I once again resemble a social human being.

    Shouldn't a General just be general about things in general?

    Being detailed is, what, perhaps the lieutenant or sergeant would take on. Then again, a lieutenant would probably be irresponsible considering the nature of the prefix in its very title.

    And how will you make sure of that? Just yesteryear I told you to give me feedback on that question and you said to me "ok, just a sec" then you never answered again 'cause you got distracted with your silly videos.
