Man what happened in May of 2022? After that he just gave up. Tried to come back in October before going Balldo mode. We might get a high of 15 streams at the start of next year
Long story short is Nick scaled back after Depp ended, trying to spend time with his family after being in the dungeon for a month and a half from what I remember. Then he got banned mid July just before Anime Matsuri, got unbanned while at Hedonism II, and gets back home mid-August. After that his nosedive started and hasn't slowed down at all ever since.
The only thing I can think of is they colluded because it makes him look cool, and "her" look credible. They both get something out of it.
This is really the bit about it that's stuck in my craw. Why say he slept with her if he didn't since Mandy could easily say it never happened. I'm almost certain that the Mandy in Nick's chat is a stolen name from the woman that was found, I just need to be back home to look in Heimdall's locals logs to help my case. They're too long for my phone to be willing to search them otherwise I'd do it now. Anyways, I've got three theories on what happened:
1: CGoody did in fact meet the catfish and fuck them, and the only lie is Mandy's real identity. CGoody is a moron left in the dark and "Mandy" gets away with it while maintaining the ruse. This is my Occam's Razor theory, and may be the real story. Edit: although this is unlikely because it requires Cgoody to get laid, which seems unlikely for a R
eddit mod Youtube/Locals mod.
2: CGoody lied, maybe because he knows Mandy is a catfish or whatever, and is using it for clout. Mandy isn't refuting because CGoody could out her as a catfish, so they're essentially stuck with eachother's secret to ensure silence. This one requires CGoody to be more intelligent than he's shown to date, but flukes happen, maybe he reverse searched the stockings picture when it happened and called her out privately, things take off from there.
3: They're the same person. This is the least likely one, with no way to prove it with everything we have on hand at this point. But I'm keeping it listed just in case something turns up so it isn't a lost theory.
I'm sure there's other possible explinations but that's where I'm at with these losers. It's just such a loose thread that I can't help but autistically tugging at it until the whole thing unravels.
