This is Tension

This!!! I stand with @mkarrett!

Very well said @mkarrett. I feel the same.

I agree with everything said above. In the heat of the moment the frustration was there. Am I mad at anyone for choices made. Of course not. Would I have done things differently absolutely! A particular path has been set and we shall go along it. What got me upset initially was how people came back at me for voicing my opinion. It’s okay though I don’t hold grudges and nobody has ever done anything to personally attack me or take it too far. Yes I let my frustration get the better but it’s part of the experience.

I think you answered your own question, Melissa. This is Tension, not “The Eggshell Experience.”
When crazy shit happens, let your freak flag fly. Get passionate! Get aggressive and decisive! Or do the opposite. Do whatever comes natural to you. Cause that’s what this is all about…provoking emotional responses.

Personally, I can’t stand behind-the-scenes gossip that happens around here. I chose to step away for a few days cause of that. This is what happens when you get a community together of different minded people and put them in an extreme situation. George A. Romero made a career out of it. My advice is to let go and fun with it. Cause when it’s all over, we’re all just gonna be drinking and laughing and remember all the wild moments we had together.

Yes, this. Opinions are opinions, and everyone’s playing their own game here. Individuals have been given decisions because that’s their _path, and the consequences of those decisions effect us all. I feel like it’s not crazy to say that everyone here will be given decisions that change the world of Tension, and this is how the decisions were made today.

Sure, someone else may have done it differently, but they weren’t the one doing it.

If anything, we need to be happy that today gave us a clear line in the sand. There’s no mystery as to who III is and where his allegiance lie.

The next decision seems to be that of our own allegiances, but as of now, there’s not a clear good side or bad side, we’re just at a fork in the road that’s heading deeper into darkness.

@mkarrett very well said. I support everyone’s decisions here, so long as they are not hurting people out of game.

I think anyone has the right to play the game how they see fit and make the choice that they feel is right in any given moment.

There are no winners in this game, and while some feel their side is “right” let’s remember that, in reality, we don’t have enough information to know which side is actually the “right” or good side to be on.

It’s all based on assumptions and I don’t think it’s fair to belittle people who choose to be on the opposite side from you.

It’s like watching a movie. Something happens and you say WTF was that? I would have portrayed that part like this or why was that there. You weren’t the director or writer but in the end the movie completed and made sense.

Melissa said the one thing that should give people hope as we are taught since very young. I’ll paraphrase. It’s always darkest before the dawn. When things become their darkest, that’s when any light will shine its brightest. Darkness can not hide in light, only away from it. The light has no fear and will reach any corner it can. Your light is not the same strength as that of others and may be compared in wattage. Anything you have, say or do only has the power you give it. This includes your light.
