(Q - Apollo: that means it will calm the exchanges, that's it, we'll stop getting into each other's head with what you're going to say.)
MB: I think you will stop quoting curses for those who do. It will already be a relief for everyone else. And I think that, you know how I'm going to say this, in the 2 years since I took over the game there have been a lot of positions taken by a lot of people and different entities. I think of A2CO, I think of Zarquos who withdrew, who decided to stop doing his thing. Yes, he did well between us because his thing was still a lot of bullshit, but hey I think that in the last 2 years when all that started to change a little, and although many people deny it, the work that I produced around this has today had positive effects in the sense that even in forums that are relatively opposed to me, the ideas that I have put forward are circulating. In the sense that 2 years ago, it was very rare to read anywhere on any forum whatsoever, well in the curses, take it and leave it, in the curses, there are things that are a little bit ole-ole. And today it has become commonplace so that means that the work I have done is starting to bear fruit. And that overall, the way of thinking of researchers, of game participants, of owls, therefore, evolves. Whether they are anti Michel Becker, pro Max Valentin, neutral or other, generally speaking, the paradigm has changed. We are in another context and we have accepted that a questioning of a certain number of elements is possible. That changes the atmosphere of the game enormously. Do you understand what I mean?
