First Person Or Third Person?

The only winning move is not to play.

Can you share where it was done well? I would like to read something in that tense, but what I have found here was subpar at best

Unfortunately, I don't remember where I saw it. But if you wait for an indeterminate period of time, you'll be able to see my stab at it in the aforementioned story idea.

I made a second person future tense thread before, and that was pretty funny.

Links or it didn't happen.

You can find it as one of my threads. Either that, or just say it didn't happen.

Off to the hunt, then!

Found it! ...And it was weird. I'd have a hard time reading a full story written in that style, even the prose was otherwise excellent.

Third person with internal dialogue for just the main character. No head hopping unless you dedicate an entire chapter to a side character.
I also prefer past tense stories because present tense can get confusing and slow the flow of the story. I understand the appeal for first person but I've never been a fan.

0th person is the perspective I attempt to spend most of my time writing in.
