... Yeah. Lambda has been writing to me about the same stuff, too. I assume they have more information on their end that they can't outright say to us through their messages, but— It's still nerve-wracking, isn't it?
Especially since all the high-ranking teams are one misstep away from being erased themselves.
They have to. I've seen too many letters of them encouraging us to keep going and assuring us we'll see each other again and all that uplifting stuff to not think they know a little more about what's happening. I don't blame them for not being able to tell us. Especially if they're staying under the radar. But uh. Yeah. Nerve-wracking is a great word for it. I think the last couple of weeks have been eating at my nerves more than usual.

What do you think about the rankings as they are right now anyway?
I'm not terribly surprised by them, if that's what you mean. We already knew the best way to get ahead of the competition was through erasing other players.
That's still what I meant, Jonas. I'm not surprised Justice and Froggystyle are ahead of the competition. I was surprised to see A-Peace is in third place, though I'm not actually sure by how much.
I was surprised about A-Peace, too, but not that surprised when you think about the fact we've had multiple weeks now with multiple bodies. We were never going to solve everything. I've asked the Reapers a few times if we're ever going to know points breakdown, but no dice so far.
...we won't really know until the end of the weekend anyway.
... I have my suspicions. But no way to confirm them. They had to have killed someone somewhere down the line, though, if even Nahida killing Valerie didn't give Go to Sleep an edge over them.
...I have thoughts about that, but it might not even matter. They're still not ahead, and considering Wolfwood is one of the victims I doubt they acted this week, too.
[ mostly because he doesn't think nahri's in a condition to kill, and vash wouldn't regardless. ]
[and then it turns out wolfwood did, in fact, try to tpk a team. but they don't know that yet, so--]
Maybe... But it's like you said. It's better to have several high ranking teams just in case. With Froggystyle and Justice down to two members already, we can't be sure that they'll make it to the end of the competition.
Yeah. We're...pretty middling, so I think we're out of the running for really making a difference. At best, all we can do is offer support to the high ranking teams we want to support and hope that's enough. Even if it means...doing some things we might normally not.
I'm not going to fault somebody for looking away if they think that's best. I'm also not going to fault somebody for pursuing things as hard as they can. I can only be responsible for my choices.

As always, all we can really do is make the choices we can live with.

Sorry, I didn't mean to pull you out. I just wanted to make sure you were okay.
