The Cast of Characters
Answer side by side“Describe the wider gang — and where the two of us sit inside it.”
The question sits across the top; you each answer on your own page. Whoever writes second reads the first answer before writing — agree, argue, or correct the record.
Why this question
Every group has its geography: the organiser, the ghost, the one with the spreadsheet, the one who books nothing and complains about everything.
And once you’ve both answered
Is what we two have visible to the others — or do they only see the surface?
Answering it honestly
- Whoever writes second reads the first answer before writing — properly, not a skim. Your page can agree, argue, or correct the record.
- Be specific. Dates, places, what was playing, who else was there. Wrong details are welcome; they're evidence.
- Don't negotiate a joint version. Two accounts that refuse to match are worth more than one polished one.
And the house rule, whatever the mode: leave a blank rather than write a lie. A blank can be filled later; a lie sits in the archive forever, and you both have to live with the paperwork.
