(Q - Black Corbac: One thing is certain, what I wanted to say Michel, there are the 30 years. You know that I am one of the organizers, when are you arriving at the 30 years
I'm interested to know, are you making a stealth visit? Well, I would advise you, given the content of the exchanges, to make a stealth visit, but when are you reaching 30?)
MB: Yeah, actually I'm hesitant because I say to myself, you're going to arrive, you're going to show up this evening. You're going to be cooked for hours, you're going to be bombarded with questions, are you really right to come... Wouldn't you be better off staying quiet in your corner and then there you go, it's a real question eh.
(Q – Aladore: you are the Guest Star of the evening. Michel, we want to see you!)
(Q - Black Corbac: We can make a deal in terms of...well we have already crossed paths obviously.)
MB: We have a little more than just meeting, we exchanged…)
(Q - Black Corbac: We drank some drinks, yes, it's true, I'm willing to pay for my bottle, there's no problem, eh? No, but I think we can good intelligence, precisely in total respect, precisely to avoid in this somewhat superficial dimension in the end, which would be to cook the host of these woods.)
MB: The real question is to say, the connection established between someone who knows the solutions because well we are not going to beat around the bush, the difference between you and me is that I know the solutions and not you. That's really the only difference between you and me. The connection between you and me as we can appreciate it on Discord, with moments that, on your side, can from time to time lead to excesses, and on mine too. When we see what happens in our discussions and when we listen to them on the recordings made of them, we say to ourselves, there is good, there is less good and we are dealing with commentators who say this is not the case. is not normal, it shouldn't or on the contrary it's very good like that, et cetera et cetera.
Then I tell myself I'm going to get there and I'm going to find myself confronted with a hundred people, maybe more. I'm going to be questioned, I'm going to be pressured, I'm going to be a bit in the hot seat all the time. Is it good, is it not good? Will I endure, not endure, that's all, in fact the questions that arise. And in the end I say to myself good when I look at the history of the Chouette d'Or, what made it special at the start was precisely the ability that the participants had, even if it was very expensive to at the time, to exchange via Minitel with the designer of the puzzles, Max Valentin.
I say to myself, today, a slightly different climate is being recreated, but still comparable, where the owls have the capacity, the possibility of exchanging with me. Should I encourage this, should I curb this? Is this good? Isn't that good? Are we distorting the game in a somewhat anecdotal way? We laugh, we tell each other things. Is this good? Isn't that good? Should it be done? Shouldn't we do it? This is exactly the current debate, it is one of the questions that you are also asking yourself because I can clearly see in the writings that I can read that many are asking questions which are directly correlated to that. Should we say more? Shouldn't we say more? Is it good to discuss with the organizer or not, et cetera. This is the climate in which I think about all this.
And then at the same time this will be my conclusion. I say to myself, 30 years is still a hell of a birthday. It's still a hell of a party. And maybe it would be a shame not to go, not to be present, not to play the game until the end.
(Q – Brybry: No but he's absolutely right BlackCorbac, that means we can deal between us, that means we say hey, it's a weekend, we avoid talking about the game , we're here to be cool, you're a colleague, there's no need to feel, we're going to say stressed because precisely people might ask questions, that is to say we all behave and we spread the word between us, we stay cool, you are here to enjoy a weekend with us, outside the framework of the game, this evening you are already with us, you have told us quite a bit in the last few days , we have plenty to do, there is no problem, in the worst case, if there will be excesses, don't worry; I mean nicely, we will tell people, listen, enjoy having a laugh. )
