Okay, i think I've narrowed down the ages a fair bit now. Camping is hella fun. Where did you go camping?l, and how was the experience?

I like reading about philosophy, particularly philosophy of religion. I play chess as well, but not as much as i used to in high school. I don't play that much video games, so i prefer to hang out with friends anywhere really. I also like to gamble, I know it's degenerate, but I'm not addicted. I do it just for fun, and mostly when I'm with friends. I watch anime from time to time as well. In fact, it was Kakegurui that influenced my love for gambling back in high school. Friends and i would skip class to bet on all sorts of card games. It was fun.

I was camping in the Ozarks. Specifically around the Blanchard springs area at the recommendation of a lemming. It was pretty fun, my first time hiking in that region. My all time favorite place I hiked is definitely Glacier National Park in Montana.

I used to play chess a bit (1300 elo iirc) in high school too, but mostly stopped afterwards. Haven't watched kakegurui yet, but I've seen my fair share of anime. The only gambling anime I've seen is kaiji. My favorites are probably one piece, blood blockade battlefront, and gurren lagaan. Very shounen heavy, ik.

Mostly read manga and manhwa these days rather than watch ngl.

Damn, you're pretty good yourself. I peaked at 1200 rapid before i stopped playing. Yeah, I've seen kaiji too, and for what it's worth kaiji is definitely above Kakegurui. The latter is just some more dumb fun. I praise you for having the wherewithal to get into one piece. I just can't watch 1000+ episodes of one anime without it getting old. I've strangely never heard of blockade battlefront, but i do know gurren lagan. I can relate to the manga/manhwa over anime too. Reading just lets me go at my own pace, and i can stop reading when i want. Doesn't really feel rhe same with anime.

I actually think i have a pretty good grasp of your age. I might not be spot on, but it's either one higher, or one lower. Are you 23?

I am within the range you said. Good work! Don't want to specify whether higher or lower for anti-doxxing reasons.
