Don't get me wrong, not all games are bad. In fact, only one of the four games I've been in was real bad. But when the judges make the games bad, they're not after just one or a few teams--they're pretty much targeting all of us.
With those rules with the sharing with other teams and visiting the Pillar and all that--those are things that people probably get singled out and punished for. Small stuff. That rule with the games, though... you break it, your entire team can suffer the punishment. Not only your team, but then you have your partner team and any friends you might make on other teams suffer by watching you and yours suffer.
So whatever you do, even if you have an inkling of a doubt or if you know one of us will feel worse off for it.... you cannot allow Corvus to throw a game. No purposefully losing it, no tossing in the towel, no setting ourselves up to take the fall for someone else. Dagger, Hope, and I--first three on this team... we had to watch the dark green team Lacerta go through a punishment like that and trust me, it ain't pretty. We were supposed to help them get out of that alive, and we couldn't. They drowned, they burned, and they died. And then the judges who ran the game couldn't revive them immediately afterwards like normal. Hell, I can sometimes still smell it.
I don't want it happening to us--or even Lynx if we can help it. Understand?
