how to actually read your letter

Cosmo the penguin looking curious

your letter of revelation shows up the moment someone answers your pinch. here's what's actually in it.

the sync percentage

this is how closely your answers lined up with theirs, on the same made-up scenarios. it's not a compatibility score for your whole relationship — it's a snapshot of how two people reasoned through one specific situation. treat it like a conversation starter, not a verdict.

perfect sync

when your answers land exactly together, that's the rarest, best outcome — both of you get a flat bonus to your social score, no "winner." it's the one result that isn't measured relative to the other person, because there's nothing to compare.

when it doesn't match

one of you scored higher, one scored lower, and social score shifts a little in that direction. this is normal — it happens on most pinches, and it's not a judgment of who's "right." different answers usually just mean different instincts, not a worse friendship.

the message

whoever answered can leave you a short note along with their answers. it's optional, so an empty one isn't a snub — some people just answer and go. if they did leave something, that's usually the actual heart of the letter; the sync number is just the frame around it.

when it stings a little

a low sync on a heavier question can feel like it means more than it does. it doesn't. it means two people approached one hypothetical differently — nothing about your history together, nothing about how much they care. if a result genuinely surprises you, that's usually worth an actual conversation, not a re-read of the letter.
