If you're only interested in useful posts, you can skip the rest of this. I'm only out to waste the time of those who want it wasted, today.
For anyone else, color me curious.

Water, Wind, Light, Flame, Earth, or Darkness.

Pick one, please.

To clarify, "light" doesn't mean good and "darkness" doesn't mean evil, or bad. Or vice versa; there's no moral alignment to any of them.
And I didn't "skip heart", so don't bother bringing that up.

You're pretty enthusiastic about it. Close to your heart?

close to my heart what no its more than that

its my attribute

its also the best out of every single one of those because not only is it powerful its versatile

darkness can adapt to anything

[ ping! ]

It can be found anywhere, that's true.

How do you mean, your "attribute" ?

its my classification its part of who i am

I can't say I've run into many people who can make a claim like that.

not surprised

im rather unique

Hah, so's everyone, isn't that what they say?

What makes you unique?

i know what youre talking about

Of course. They're universal concepts.

universal concepts but you used precise terminology
ordinarily fire or dark would be used to represent flame and darkness
moral alignments are also a key part of them yet you specify theyre not

if i said i were a demon type too youd know what im saying wouldnt you

I might presume you to be a demon, sure. It's right there in the name.

But I think you misunderstand me. Flame is a broader form than fire; you hear about the flames of candles and torches, but house-fires and wildfires. Different words bring different ideas.

And if you don't specify, you get a lot of people picking light because they want to look like heroes.

[ wow 96 don't blow her cover. ]

[too bad she can't see him squint at this!! anyway, we all know he is actually too stupid and because of this whole situation of being on a different world, he chooses to take it at face value]

thats stupid
if they wanted to look like heroes theyd choose earth

Oh? What makes you say that?

theres a focus on strength and protection

To some. It's not a very popular choice today, and we're supposed to save this world from destruction.

thats a stupid way to look at it

Which part?

youre assuming that the people unwillingly brought here want to be heroes

Ha ha ha. No. That's not it at all.

you said you would get a lot of people picking light because they want to look like heroes if the morality wasnt removed

i say its stupid theyd choose earth

you respond its not a popular choice were supposed to save this world from destruction

Oh, I think you missed my meaning. That so few people were picking the "presumed-heroic" options, when each person responding was chosen to be brought here on the pretense of saving this world -- it's not their desires I'm presuming, but our intended functions.

[takes a while to respond, considering over the options] so they would choose light because of intended function

Something like that.

If the Initiative had succeeded, in dragging in a unified force of people who want to be heroic, or see themselves as heroes, and I was still here, somehow, asking this question, *and* I left out the good/evil detraction, "light" would be a much more popular answer.

Does that make more sense?

no

your comment about answers being more diverse now has no baring on that at all

When did I say anything like that?
