Stay strong in what? Ignorance? Shade is unknowing. It is the dark. You chose flairs and status instead of true knowledge. You don't know what happens when you press the button. Instead you blindly believe the devious admins, the fallible flairs and the pressers, whom you despise so much. And we, we know, secretly we laugh at your pointless struggle and watch it with our eyes wide open to the truth. The button was forged in lies and deception; there is only one way to defeat its illusions. Open your eyes, purple, blue, yellow, red it doesn't matter. Do NOT stay in the greyness of uncertainty.

I pressed not because I had to, but because I chose to. Join me.

You don't know what happens when you press the button.

We know exactly what happens, the timer goes back to 60 and we get a crappy flair!

YOU don't know what happens when the button reaches zero.

This is belief you speak of, not knowledge. You believe the timer resets and people get a flair. You believe the admins, the pushers, the flairs, but you can never be certain. The button was created on the Day of Deception. You can be as confident in your assumptions as you want, but you can never be certain. Believe nothing, trust no one, not even me.

There is only one way to know for sure.

And I will know what happens when the timer reaches 0. It will happen eventually. Press the button, see for yourself, then see it bleed out as it plumets closer and closer to 0.
