I think I understand where you’re coming from with the inactivity angle, but inactivity by itself is not really scum-indicative evidence on Day 1 for a huge game such as this, rather than just low activity or a “good morning” message.
First they wanted to wait for more players to post and weren’t sure what to do, and now they these more players have posted all we got was good morning.
I’ve even suggested to Bitter than they didn’t necessarily have to post mind breaking revelations, they could have monologues like Alexis or post factoids. You know, at-least something.
I didn’t take his excuse too well I must admit.
