Back to collectionA Quiet Day Leaves Two Questions Open
The team had just discussed burning, games, and real use in one reply, yet some people in the group still felt that it had skirted their losses on nodes. There was no new project event today. No consensus emerged, but the narrator decided to record future disputes by separating demands from replies, so that “we're building” would not obscure a specific question.

The team had just discussed burning, games, and real use in one reply, yet some people in the group still felt that it had skirted their losses on nodes. With no new announcement over the weekend, the narrator tried to locate the point where the discussion stalled.
There was no new project event today. Rereading yesterday's exchange, the narrator saw that some wanted a quick change in price, while others wanted proof that people used the games. Both sides spoke of “value” but had different time horizons in mind. The narrator had meant to write, “The team has answered,” then instead wrote down the two questions whose terms no one had agreed on.
No consensus emerged, but the narrator decided to record future disputes by separating demands from replies, so that “we're building” would not obscure a specific question. The next step was to see whether anyone would define what evidence of use would count. Until then, a pause in discussion could not settle the issue.
