Tiny Chat People

We are justice definitely doesn't justify what we do, I've never tried to say that it does. I've also at no point been in support of us trying to win the game.
It means that we should act the part, which is to prevent this bullshit, for everyone and not just our cats.

Sending them flying around will probably be at least a little bit dangerous, but so would keeping them at home.
They're going to get into danger eventually. They should get into danger trying to spread justice, by finding out what the conditions of other cats are and preventing further injustice, instead of from staying at home and bunkering up pointlessly.

I agree with you for the most part in terms of our directive, but your tactics have left much to be desired considering where we are now.

If we're just going to keep them at home and build big walls, we're essentially telling people "come and kill them". They'd have to, in order to finish this game session.
If you want to protect our cats (and only ours), the quickest and most merciful way would be to just use that handy knife we made, killing us and making them all instantly into rogue neutrals. The effect would be exactly the same.

I think we can do better than that.

Immediately committing seppuku would make a strong statement, but it would have further side effects you may not see coming and would have no way to counter unless we make preparations first.

Firstly, Wax would no longer have somebody to ally with between two equal teams of two, and we don't know how that would influence things.

Secondly, it would remove any capacity we may have to protect the cats using our Create and other commands.

Thirdly, they would make excellent hostages to turn one of their friends into a double agent, if any of the other players have fewer scruples than they would appear to.

Fourth, they may decide to take things into their own hands and get themselves into danger trying to do the right thing. They are beings with free will after all, and I doubt they will just sit there at home after their creator commits suicide.

I don't know how we can find that out short of sending our TCPs to meet them.

The remote control spy robot I created for situations where sending our TCPs to gather information might be risky?

Granted, giving it an appearance that doesn't scream 'Frog-Crimes made this' would have been better, but I expected it to be used for scouting and mapping rather than covert ops. Hindsight.

see, if we were fighting spit directly, and we knew 100% no hearsay that spit was the incarnation of pure evil, adolf hitler mixed with a psychotic spree killer mixed with lucifer devil satan, you could have a point. but the problem is even if they are that, we wouldn't be going to war with them directly. the war proposed utterly fails to address the actual problem; no matter who wins or loses spit themselves will be fine. it's not world war 2, it's world war 1.

I cannot think of a reasonable excuse to eat somebody. If you have an alternative narrative I'm willing to hear it.

if you've noticed a shift in my tone, good, i try. basically, for the first half of the adventure i was trying to subvert the pastel safety of the early goings with the worst, meanest, most absurd suggestions i could possibly think of. i still think it's really funny when things go wrong. but i grew to love prophet very quickly, and what happened to them really fucked me up and i still feel (despite what i've been told) personally responsible for things going so sour for them. ever since, i try to keep my jokes pretty harmless and back my friends up on ideas i think are sincerely good. i'd actually say it's been a bit of a life lesson for me in responsibility

edit: (knife aside. i got caught up in the moment i guess. it's still funny)

I see. So you are loyal to prophet, and expect prophet to turn against Grind due to his aggressive foreign policy. Thus you are against allying with Grind, in anticipation that prophet will seek refuge with somebody else.

I can understand that. It's a viable reason not to ally with Grind.
