08/05/2023 - Vocal n° 58 - 02:18:30 :30: Blockage - Hunting not found without a clue from Max at the time

(Q - ??: I come back to something you talked about at the beginning of the vocal, about the fact that Paul Acher or Régis Hauser when he presented his product to sell it, and he talked about the fact that he could play on the calibration a little of his quest I don't know what to call it, well of his hunt uh and therefore on the fact that it gives or not additional clues to find the trigger or. the great solution, I don't know what to call this part and so are you yourself convinced of the fact that without additional clues this trigger would never have been found And would the fact of having done a year and? half of Discord and having to add additional clues, notably Pierrette, this reinforces this idea that the owl was not findable without these clues.)

MB: I would say that I learned on Discord, that’s for sure. I am absolutely convinced that hunting, but like all the treasure hunts that take place today, you can draw a parallel with all the hunts that are currently taking place. I think that it would not have been found without Max Valentin, therefore giving some additional information which would have helped to guide the players. So I didn't plan to do it. Because in fact, when I took it up again, I wasn't able, I wasn't able to measure it, I wasn't able to appreciate it, to realize to what extent things were... how, how people worked, how ingrained things were in the minds of the players, what their certainties were, et cetera. Then, little by little, I realized the impact of certain concepts, notably the famous concept of remainders, the super tip, what you want, the mega tip, sorry, the super solution, the 12th riddle and what not. ? There, I understood that things had taken on a completely different scale from what the hunt was originally, since I had remained in the spirit of what we had discussed with Régis Hauser at the time, and hey, I understood the project well. I think that and I realized that all this had gone very far, that we were in completely crazy things.
And from there, I said to myself, can they really find out, is it like today, I'm talking about a year and a half ago, is it like this? is today, anyone has any chance of finding it? I have come to the conclusion that no. I said to myself no, they can't find it and there was this famous conference where I decided to completely change gear at my level too, to say well now I have to talk to them differently, I have to I tell them what I feel, how I understood it.
So that's where I said, well listen, you have to let go of all that a bit because it disturbs you too much and then I realized that indeed, this hunt was relatively well done, I maintain that, that There was a great find on arrival. But this discovery was not as presented in the book, and was not really within the reach of players.
Well, we could always imagine someone finding it, it wouldn't necessarily have been impossible. It is probable, moreover, I have said it and I maintain it that if there had not been the Minitel, if there had not been the takeover of power by Max Valentin, in quotation marks, the extent of his remarks, which ended up completely overwhelming it, I think that perhaps it could still have been found and but in any case at the stage where I took matters in hand, it was no longer possible that they would be found without that there be a refocusing, a rethinking of the elements and potentially additional elements therefore our dear Pierrette.
