    Based off of the episode "Past Tense". Just throw a picture of a person up and state whether they would probably be a Gimmie, Dim, or Ghost in the Sanctuary Districts.

    "Gimmie" was a 21st century slang term for an inhabitants of the United States of America's Sanctuary Districts. They were useful members of society who needed help finding work and a place to live. A service the Districts provided for them was to help find them job placements. Michael Webb and his son Danny were classed as gimmies in the 2020s.

    "Dim" was a 21st century slang term for inhabitants of the United States of America's Sanctuary Districts. "Dims" were usually people with mental health problems. Grady was classed as a dim in the 2020s.

    "Ghost" was a 21st century slang term for a person who lived in a Sanctuary District but had not integrated well into the environment. They were considered dangerous for their violence and hostility towards other residents. Biddle Coleridge was the leader of the "ghosts" in Sanctuary District A in 2024.

    Aside from the fact that game threads should be limited to the lounges, this particular game is just too ripe for abuse. Classifying people into one of three very limited categories can lead to nothing good or constructive. Thread closed.
