I just sorta wish that this wasn't overtaken by bots. I wish it was something that everybody could really, truly contribute to. Yeah, it felt sorta incoherent at most points but it was only well put together because of some Discord groups, not because of Reddit working together to upvote what was thought of as the best. Thanks u/youngluck for running this entire thing anyway, r/sequence was definitely a lot of fun to take part in and watch. Oh, and that ARG was extremely fun to work on. To redeem Sequence a bit, it was definitely better than CircleOfTrust.

I dunno, having only the most upvoted posts be a part of it feels like any other day of Reddit. With /r/thebutton, an individual could reset the whole button. With /r/place, one could control a whole pixel. Even with robin and circleoftrust, individuals could see themselves being a part of something. IDK, I just felt like this April Fool's felt like being lost to the Reddit hive mind, like any other day.

Congratulations, Reddit. You made a short film. It's not very good, but you made it.

Edit: r/place was better.

Edit 2: And you know it was[1].

It’s like an escalating argument between two stand up comedians getting into a drunk argument and eventually yelling nonsense over one another.

A Message to the r/sequence community:

Every year, we admin look forward to April 1st, the day when we get to do a weird little dance with the community that we love so much. Sometimes that dance is majestic, and other times it’s us fumbling off-rhythm, stepping on each other's toes. Some question if it might just be easier to shimmy to our own tune… use the day to release a gag video, or announce a fake product. But those questions don’t last long. We enjoy the dance as much as you (sometimes) do.

Thank you to everybody that participated this year. Thank you to those that organized and those that merely watched. Thanks to those that tried and those that spent energy to tell us how much they hated it. The passion that fuels both sides of that spectrum is why we even look forward to dancing at all.

Until next time,

The Admin

It was decent. I mean it was barely coherent but it’s not like it was ever realistic to expect that

Someone said we get a badge if we comment here? I hope so.

This was cool. I think it’s important to remember that it is an experiment. It’s not meant to be perfect, it’s meant to be interesting and to see what happens when we get turned loose on an interactive toy. I wish we had gotten our shit together to make factions that were strong enough to give the narrators a run for their money. That’s what needed to happen, I think.

But I still loved it.
