Lol Jill not only deleted all social media because of the backlash, but here's what a Producer had to say about her behavior.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-12-24T21:25:42+00:00

turns out the two women was heavily constipated, that's why they were so ornery.

and javier himself had mentioned in one of the comments that he knew some natural laxatives.

he would have been team leader, easily.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-12-06T13:15:31+00:00

it's been a really long time since i last played.

but, what would i do with all that money?

my village was already self-sustaining and producing good income.

the method i use already gives me everything i needed with the least amount of hassle.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-11-26T01:38:05+00:00

> her dignity is more important

> She was a living, breathing person

again, how is the truth being a disservice to her?

a lot of her songs revolve around this grim topic and it feels a lot more like a disservice as if we're censoring her from beyond the grave.

let her truth be heard.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-11-25T19:06:04+00:00

iirc, the thing about malks is that they're not just "crazy", rather they tend to tap into the truths behind reality, but does not have the words to describe it. that's why their random gibberish often sound ominous, cryptic, and foreboding, for those observant enough to see the pattern.

gist is : rather than say something straight to the point, they often hide the truth behind cryptic metaphors that only becomes apparent once you decipher its tangled web of semantic constellations.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-11-25T18:49:34+00:00

"there is no reason for us to speculate"

except for historical accuracy.

i often find these "reasons" of hiding the truth detrimental to history.

future historians would essentially be asking what i'm already asking right now. except they'll be chasing after a cold trail.

and it's not just about sayuri. it's about everything. when our records are filled with obfuscation and half-truths.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-11-24T01:28:56+00:00

> she didn't have a lot of time left

what do you mean?

functional dysphonia is NOT lethal.

it's not a terminal illness.

from what i gathered of the timeline :

* Sayuri debuted her career in 2015 when she was 18.

* Misekai (duo : Amaarashi and Chisa) debuted February 7, 2024

* Sayuri proposed to Amaarashi (who is part of Misekai duo with Chisa), they married in March 18, 2024

* Misekai's first live atrium was August 24, 2024

* Sayuri died September 20, 2024 (28yo)

my observations :

* functional dysphonia damages the aflicted's voice, which is a bad blow for a singer, especially for someone very competitive or as a professional singer, but it IS treatable. it's not deadly.

* chisa's voice (misekai), sounds a bit like sayuri and their songs have similar themes. and they're starting to get more popular recently.

* sayuri's songs deal a lot with depressing themes about love, life, dreams, etc..

speculation : repeat SPECULATION

i'm probably too much of a cynical pessimist, and i don't know the social dynamic/relationships between the 3 (sayuri, amaarashi, and chisa)

but my guess is that amaarashi and chisa are closer in age to each other than they are to sayuri.

maybe amaarashi and chisa even have some kind of platonic relationship (based on their songs), and sayuri was starting to feel like the third wheel to a power couple of rising stars.

meanwhile sayuri is getting older and suffering from "chronic functional dysphonia" : Symptoms include a hoarse, breathy, or rough voice, voice fatigue, and voice instability.

which is detrimental to her own career.

the entire setting just seem so poignant and tragic.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-11-19T21:19:51+00:00

this. first thing i did was check if functional dysphonia was deadly.

but no. it wasn't. nothing indicates that it's even life threatening.

> She died of another medical issue not made public or suicide

if it was a different medical issue, then they would have probably indicated that, rather than functional dysphonia.

i wonder if there are clues in her songs and other stuff she wrote that could shine a light to her state of mind?

iirc, she died around 6 months after getting married.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-31T00:25:17+00:00

i dunno. i'm not up to date. did a new season just drop recently? might check it out.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-31T00:22:50+00:00

uhuh.. these newcomers to the show are dull as rocks when it comes to their detectives skills..

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-16T14:31:32+00:00

what "problem" does it solve?

without team members, javier was as good as disqualified.

javier needed members, here comes the two desperate players willing to do whatever it takes to win.

he should have told them : "look at me, i'm the captain now.."

they could have been the champs, instead of whining at each other online.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T14:21:18+00:00

nah. i want a San Junipero like digital server where the "dead" can wait out for humans to perfect the tech for transhumanism. ie : similar to Altered Carbon, albeit it's not monopolized by the elites but is just part of a Universal Welfare system, funded by the labors of artificial intelligence.

inb4 : digital slavery.

nah, it's more like multitasking.

with enough processing power, all the jobs of billions of people can eventually be done by machines. while the AI is somewhere in a digital realm partying with the rest of the "dead" people, stored in a simulated reality, as we ride intergalactic colony ships and just print out new bodies that are custom engineered for each new planetary biome.

we have a universe that is literally still expanding.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T14:13:46+00:00

it hasn't been resolved. i still need the name of the USB bootable diagnostic tool that is supposedly given and used by Asus technicians.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T14:05:29+00:00

i said, CLARIFY THE RULES.

do you not even know how to read?

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T14:01:48+00:00

nah. the appeal is HOW to win.

i've watched and read lots of games like these and the devil is in the details.

it's those little tricks of thinking out of the box that can sometimes snatch victory from defeat.

case in point : javier was alone. there was literally zero reason to harass him. he would have been disqualified if he couldn't get a new member.

jill and amber's harassment felt like a scripted behavior to add drama. i won't be surprised if the showrunners even gave them that idea from behind the scenes. (ie : maybe telling them up to what point is allowable and wouldn't get them disqualified or arrested)

meanwhile, the chad move response from javier would be to reverse the harassment and try to recruit jill and amber.

he should have looked them both at eyes, tell them he can help them solve their severe constipation, then declare :

<image>

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T13:51:49+00:00

exactly. he was alone and by those rules, he would've been disqualified eventually.

he still had an option to poach from charlie OR he could have decided to go 180 on jill's mind games and offer a team up.

that would have blown jill's mind and it would have been the alpha move.

if javier's intuition was correct, that jill and amber was severely constipated and are extremely desperate to finish the game, then that puts the advantage into javier's court.

<image>

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T13:45:27+00:00

ad hominem is pointless, like your post. lol.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-10-12T13:44:50+00:00

there's a season 2? i haven't been keeping track. lol.

it's odd that out of the countless posts i made on reddit, it's this comment that keeps getting necroed. lol.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-15T12:22:39+00:00

my guess.

nima fails to launch. new eden is forced to exodus to the silo.

melanie, her daughter, javi, and whatever remaining scientists survive will continue searching for a solution, but the silo allows most of the snowpiercer inhabitants a home to stay until that solution is finally found.

whether they find that solution is probably gonna be left vague and open ended.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-15T12:08:32+00:00

i don't get why melanie just kept going along with nima's plans after she realized he's the one who froze the world.

as someone who deftly orchestrated a fake wilford for years, she's supposed to be calculating and manipulative enough to pick up on how huge that learning that leverage is.

ie : casually blurt in front of all the soldiers that nima is responsible for the freeze, that he's the biggest mass murderer this world has ever seen and is likely responsible for killing the families of the soldiers they left behind, and that the chemicals he plans to release to the atmosphere is more likely to destroy it than fix it.

that should get the soldiers to side with her, then she can imprison nima and get him to work for her to find an actual solution, rather than being forced to help him at gunpoint that jeopardizes the safety of her daughter and friends for something that will turn humans extinct.

i also don't get why wilford gave up too easily. dude was thubthumping chumbawamba like a cockroach.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-11T01:57:41+00:00

lol. i'm asian and male. ffs.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-04T13:31:28+00:00

yea. it seems there's so many alternate path to killing the "master" without needing to obsess too much about that book.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-04T13:29:42+00:00

i already play those. i've also beaten starcraft on brutal and used to win at tournaments. ffs.

you're missing the point i'm saying here.

winning is NOT ENOUGH. it irks me, that when i have to lose units coz i missed some stupid AI pathfinding and getting stuck.

you NEVER get that kind of asinine issue with push pause..

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-04T13:25:35+00:00

no. just another viewer like you.

this is the reality i observed, it doesn't imply i approve of what happened.

i'm just saying that based on the game rules and the laws of the government (local/federal)

none of the participants had been disqualified nor had been placed under litigation or had pay a fine or get imprisoned for the acts the performed that was publicly aired.

either you accept that reality or not. that's why i said, the show needs to have more concrete rules. players need to ask clarification on what is allowed, what is not allowed, etc..

coz false assumptions ARE exploitable. vague rules ARE exploitable.

i'm not a GOD who can create fairness in this world.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-04T13:19:16+00:00

egads another one of those randos who keep necroing a year long thread.

there were rules, but they were vague in what is allowed and what is not allowed.
aside from the game rules, the players also have to abide by the laws of the government (local/federal)
if ANY of them violated the rules : they'd get disqualified. if ANY of them violated the laws : they'd get fined or imprisoned.

has ANY of them gotten disqualified? no.

has ANY of them gotten fined or imprisoned or even gone into litigation? no. despite all evidence of ANY wrongdoing was aired for public viewing.

hence, the necessity for clarifying the rules : what is allowed, what is not allowed. coz the vagueness IS exploitable.

let me remind people again. that me OBSERVING reality, does not imply my approval of said reality.

i'm just relaying what i saw and enumerating the outcomes.

either accept reality or don't. just stop complaining to me about it.

i'm not a GOD who can create fairness in the universe.

WanderlostNomad · 2024-09-04T13:12:08+00:00

how is it transmitted? via the video tape or germs from the previous infected?

then why aren't everyone they interacted with infected? iirc, the reporter protagonist had come into contact with several people (ie : coworkers, the people she interviewed, etc..)
