1) Sorry I never got to recap. Life got busy, I got depressed, yada yada and I just never got to rereading everything (which atp I'm sorta thankful for since 51 is basically the recap everyone confused needed). Which brings me to my next item...
2) Holy fuck. So, skipping needless theories and repeat of episode info that can just be read...who the FUCK is the OG character? It seems like Seungchan would be the obvious answer, but then why make Doha lose all his memory (to our knowledge at least), and Bada have gaps? Or, and this honestly seems plausible, did Bada start of as the OG then when he turned on Seungchan/Doha it became a thing of control so that they could manipulate exactly how much he knew and when? Cause hear me out, but if Yongtaek (God rest his and the other lovebird idiots souls since something tells me they'll never make it out) was awoken afterthefact, who's to say that something didn't occur BEFORE that? I could go in circles all day to be frank but this is my conclusion...
Game: Beatable, and hell, maybe was even close to being beaten at some point for all we know and there was interference (pre episodes we know now)
Players: Essentially, for times sake, everyone was an OG at some point and for now we'll assume Bada was the first. Problem is, we don't know who or WHY Bada has gap memory, and it's HIGHLY contingent on Doha vs Seungchan atp because we know Doha's tape was turned off (why??) and we know that one of the two LIKELY came before the others to know what really happened to Bada, and why he has memory gaps. Now, I say it's contingent because regardless of what happened after (irrelevant for now) depending on who did it would spell motive of why (control? love? both?) thus figuring this out is likely key.
Objective: Finding out why the fallout, WHY Doha's tape was turned off (whether before or after Bada's gap memory), and most importantly the reason Bada's gaps exist and what he knew prior to them. And given we know this is not a Deadman Switch Theory trope now, we know it was intentional in some way cause no way Bada did it himself.
Genuinely curious how this'll unfold now because I said before, but I genuinely don't think the other three will make it out unless till the absolute LAST minute given their trauma. And I wonder if Bada's memory gaps were even due to the tapes, or if we should start entertaining the Developer Theory [DVT] (Bada may be the game creator of sorts) because then it'd explain enough, not alot, but yk... Tho I honestly don't wanna entertain DVT cause it opens too many cans and we already got too many fucking worms.
Okay two things:
