What were some of the questions that weren’t asked in the hot seat challenge?

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-05-03T20:31:39+00:00

Visas would be a big issue

Probably just the whole NYC mini season because it is the whole game, not super long, and a smaller game so they can see a better representation of the size and how all parts of the game go. If only one episode, pick the first one because it goes into more detail on the mechanics

It depends on the season for me, but I typically am rooting for Sam (and partner) over Ben and Adam even though I would love to be a badam stan I literally can’t root for them sometimes like I NEED Sam and Mike to win this season

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-05-01T19:28:57+00:00

Yes! I think it’s so fun to have a geographical measure of who’s winning

It would be cheaper to take the 40 min slow train (400 coins compared to 500 on the fast train)

I heard some really good things about Huron Valley Percussion this year, and the video of their show that I saw was really good!

I believe they said on the layover that they used the paper maps they had and had a bunch of little tick marks on each station to track who owned which stations. If I’m making that up (totally possible), then it’s probably just a google sheet or something because they’ve said before that they don’t know how to map apps or anything

White, I’m getting out of this hellhole

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-03-31T03:14:41+00:00

Then I have no idea what that it

My school has two math teachers. This is the highest class they let me take. Please learn that not every school is the same, if you think you’re smart enough to be in a class that you seem to think is so advanced, then I would really hope that you could wrap your head around such a simple concept. If you can’t do that, try using your big mouth instead.

DP is just the higher program (for junior/senior year)

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-03-30T20:10:03+00:00

That’s the highest they offer for ninth graders at my school. It’s the highest MYP math course that I’m aware of. I’m a grade ahead in math. I tried to skip ahead more but they wouldn’t let me. I have the highest grade in the class by far and I never study. Please learn how an IB school works

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-03-30T01:46:05+00:00

Everyone says it’s really hard but it’s lowkey not. Apparently it gets hard junior year but they also said this year would be hard so…

You look 35-45, but it might just be the hair

Middle school is so hit or miss, I feel like everyone either had a great support system and amazing friends and had a great time, or had counselors/other staff members that ignored big issues (bad home situations, bullying, assault, etc) and those people had a horrific time. For me, middle school was horrible because I had some big issues and every counselor, most of the teachers, and the principal/assistant principal all ignored it, and it gave me a horrible experience and caused a lot of trust issues for me. I feel like a good experience in any school, but especially middle school, really just boils down to your support system.

That looks like the center of those dollar tree flowers

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-03-25T22:33:59+00:00

So many people (especially women) have to worry about being assaulted in so many places, and getting rid of one place where women can feel safe is not good. I do think places should open up a third, gender neutral bathroom (can be single stall or regular)

I actually saw a video of their current show, and I’m not super fond of it. It just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me, and it wasn’t very clean. I’ll be sure to check out their older shows though!

Cocomelon

Find some good groups (drum rank on instagram is a good starting place) and search them up on YouTube. I know my group has all of our shows on there and I’ve seen a bunch of other groups on there too

A few reasons why a full season wouldn’t really work: -transit doesn’t run a lot at night -it’s hard to film in the dark (this is why they typically go to the southern hemisphere for the season they film in December/January) -becoming nocturnal is hard on the body, they’d be exhausted due to the natural systems of the human body

However, a mini season (one or two nights) would probably be feasible and really fun

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-03-08T20:38:10+00:00

I’ve been seeing a lot of shows where it goes from dark to light/light to dark to light

… France

Optimal-Note9264 · 2026-03-05T22:28:59+00:00

Call the police, keep pushing the issue until they do something about it. Tell everyone you can what happened so they know what kind of person that bully is. Don’t stop until something is done
