URGENT [video]
[ The video shows Matt sitting at the desk at his home office with a dead serious expression on his face. ]
I came face to face with Vanderweele, a young Vanderweele, from the time of Retrospec's founding. We might have a chance to change history for the better.
[ If that doesn't get your attention, what will? ]
Vanderweele was willing to listen when I told him about his plans to build a utopia, that in the future his ways have not yielded the type of results he wants and that unreality is still a threat. He explained his vision, he wants to assure the survival and growth of the human race, nothing wrong with that goal but as we all know he was willing to resort to betraying the other founders and experimenting on aliens to get it. Look into Halliday's work if you've forgotten what I'm talking about.
So I offered him an alternative and he was willing to listen.
Each of the dead worlds had its own share of technology and research. I proposed that instead of running all those terrible experiments on innocent victims he should instead search for the answer to humanity's well being in the collected knowledge of the dead worlds. I know for a fact my own world alone could provide a lifetime worth of information.
There is of course a catch. The only way to get access to that information is to nurture the seeds of the dead worlds so they have access to the higher layers of reality. In other words, put people through the Retrospec program.
[ He holds up a book. ]
This is a book from my other world. I intend to give it to Vanderweele and the other founders as proof that the seeds can bring back information.
Consent has been a concern I've had since I first joined the network. I've witnessed people grow and gain happiness from their experience but I have also seen people suffer greatly. That's why I specifically told him that they should seek out Seeds who would volunteer to regain their old memories and bodies. People like Wendy, who would be willing to join the cause to stop unreality.
Vanderweele told me he will seriously reconsider his research approach if we provide proof that there are Seeds who would volunteer. So I'm asking who here would be willing to add their name to that list?
And yes, I realize Vanderweele is not that trustworthy but he wasn't lying when he said he'd reconsider. I think he fears for the future of the human race and providing an alternative path will at least spare a few lives. If we can get all the Founders to agree on a company policy and direction that takes Seeds' consent into mind we have a chance to get Retrospec to see us as people from the beginning instead of test subjects.
Please respond as soon as possible. I realize time travel will allow me to return the results the next second after I left but the more we wait in the present the more risk there is something will interfere.

I know your saying that you want to try to change his mind to make him less assholish, but how long until he disagrees with something and goes on a similar warpath again? This time, he has our names, and who knows how he is going to interpret those names.

More than anything, simply warning the other founders about Vanderweele.
no subject
Warning the other founders and tell them that they need to shape up, fine,
Potentially putting me and my family on their sights? I'm sorry, I don't trust any of them, we are in this desperate situation because they chose to keep vanderwheel a secret, when they KNEW he was a threat or a potential threat, at the very least ever since I got on the app last year when they said they got "hacked" by someone.
no subject
They could have established different company policies that are fairer to the people they're bringing back, as I said before.
It might not be fair to judge them for the work of the current staff though, like getting "hacked" or not telling us about Vanderweele sooner.
no subject
It might not be, but it's not like we ever had records about their policies or information in general for us to even know what is going on...
Which, in of itself a telling sign, if I were going to make a deal with someone and I knew nothing, I would be weary of giving anything vaulable that I couldn't make do without.
