Oh cool. I didn't even have a chance to vote though!

Maybe it'd be fun to give 2 days worth of consolation points to people who are DQ'd to see if anyone is smart enough to purposefully throw the game on the last day.

Thinking about it more, I don't like that idea.

I really like this idea.

Things that pop into my head:

  1. Have a backup soap choosing method in case ShavingInCT's Discord bot takes a dump at an inopportune time.
  2. If the first quiz answer is PAA, for example, consider waiting for the next one.
  3. Maybe give a tad bit of flexibility in case the game picks some super odd-ball soap that nobody has with scent notes from another planet. If it seems like everyone is going to burn their airbud allowance on one day, that would stink. Maybe 2 airbud days?

Luxury shave, as they call it.

If Speick was ubiquitous where I lived (like, available at the drug store), I wonder if I would take it for granted. I find it to be a really excellent, nice smelling shave product that I really enjoy using.

Great soap, of course, but the Scots Pine scent doesn't inspire much thrill in me. It'd be good for someone who plans on using the same soap every day and doesn't want to think about it.

The calculator on my phone has an "AC" button, further confusing the situation.

I was about to say "yeah, but" and mention some stuff about seasonal depression, car accidents, etc... but maybe you're right. Both sides somehow have studies supporting their way of doing it, so maybe the path of least resistance is the best way.

Most people prefer Daylight Saving Time, just to clarify. The big push is to make it permanent, and not "fall back" to standard time.
