RIght, yeah. Chiming in on that:

I have no personal problem with ExploerTM, and they're welcome back in the thread after the one week. However, I'd literally just said that the topic's off the board for the quest, and they even acknowledged my older post on it, and continued right on with it - under other cirumstances I might have just dropped a warning, but again, I literally just posted about it. That's why I asked for the ban. (I additionally asked for a mod to apply the threadban because I didn't feel comfortable with doing it myself in this case.)

Unrelated:
I support talking to them if Firn's willing. We left that plot hanging because Firn was having trouble writing it, and asked us to put it aside.
Yes, they're back on the menu.

So it's been a few days. The top rated (and basically only) vote only has 3 votes—is everyone basically content with it or what?

Other than wanting to go ahead and commit to scheduling a Science! session, so we don't forget to do so, sure. That gives us another avenue to study what just happened, but getting Kyoko's feedback is good, too.
 
Honestly, I figured trying to plan anything past talking to Kyoko and Yuma would be a wash anyway, since it is pretty much guaranteed we'll have one or maybe even two votes during that conversation.
 
It has been something ongoing for a good long while, but this update is another confirmation that Sabrina has truly become an independent entity from the thread's own thoughts. If it is indeed jealousy or concerns about self-worth (and not some esoteric wish rejection), is it something she will have to actively combat in order to accept the proliferation of this miraculous technique?

Also this might be typical protagonist-centric thinking, but even in a world where this novel griefhax existed even before Sabrina came into being, I still see her and her friends as playing an integral part in the salvation of magical girls everywhere. Judging from the current status quo this technique is either being actively suppressed by Incubators or the incentives of the magical girl system heavily disfavor it ever gaining traction.

In such equilibrium conditions, the actions of an average non-OP meguca to turn things around even with the technique have a low chance of making a lasting difference, or would be limited to a local scope. The goal of Sabrina and company will be to serve as a catalyst that will spur action and let people know that change on a massive scale is possible and desirable. Basically she will provide the energy required to spark a great bonfire and reach a new, better equilibrium. And crucially, it should be a spark that is far more resistant to being stamped out by Incubators.
