I demand an explaination for this. No. I'm not talking about Claire.

I know that it doesn't make sense. That's a cop out. Everyone says that this place has no logic, but everything makes sense somehow in its way. There's a method or mode that it's exicuted. Is there a quota to be filled? Some kind of a request order for some preestablished critieria

If I didn't know better -

How long have you been here?

[vicodincrutch]

Four years and twenty three days. I mean, if we want to be exact.

[adamantined]

In four years and twenty-three days, have you ever been able to find any kind of sense in someone leaving? I mean real sense. None of that 'it was their time' crap.

It doesn't make it any easier if you find some kind of logical answer anyway. It still happens. It doesn't stop sucking.

[vicodincrutch]

No. I got lazy and distracted by the sick people.

Don't start with me on what does and does not suck.

[derse_princess]

If there is, it's probably centred around keeping us as miserable as possible.

[vicodincrutch]

That's an A and B already leading to another C which would have a point and purpose too. Would.

[derse_princess]

Of course, the deities shouldn't be forgotten. It's possible they choose us based on how well we'll entertain them during their various whims and discard us should our reactions prove not to be to their tastes.

[vicodincrutch]

They seem more cause than sole reason.

[vicodincrutch]

That's a count of roughly three if we round up so far. I don't think that would be a vast majority.

[vicodincrutch]

The approximately three are still in a City of thousands.

'Logic' implies a fixed set of principles. The comings and goings here nearly never hold fast to the same rules, so to speak, so in that manner of thinking, there is no logic-- or maybe just a very twisted version of logic that fluctuates too often and too dramatically to be mapped cleanly. The method is always in flux, as well. There is no set quota, unless the quota is one of curiosity and observation. The criteria are unique to each person. Of course, this is all speculation. Have I answered all of your questions?

[vicodincrutch]

No. There's always logic just as there are always principles. If an action keeps reoccurring do we say it is because there is no reason it just happens? If it were a flash in the pan reaction it would be a fluke and it would only happen once under special circumstances.

[is_was_willbe]

An interdependence among the cases, no matter how likely, can't be definitively proven. Objectively it would be just as likely to say everyone comes and goes by accident if we didn't know any better. We do know better, mind, but all the same there isn't necessarily any one linking factor between any two manifestations of the same result, even if they aren't completely random. Correlation is very subjective, and the human brain is wired to see patterns everywhere.

[vicodincrutch]

If I wanted to google something I would have.

Are you trying to find reason in chaos, Doctor House?

[vicodincrutch]

Since finding Nemo is out. Sure.
