The thing nobody told me about console from a neighborhood park

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. multiplayer got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

That last line is excellent. The 10-minute rule is underrated.
