alright someone tell me what they think happens to the VILE operatives who don't graduate, or do but don't actually attend the ceromony

Because we know VILE takes in 40 thieves every year, and it seems to be exactly 40 based on the result sheets from when Carmen attended

If we take a look at these screenshots we can see just how many passed the exams

They're aligned in nice little columns of 10 trainees I assembled a nice little diagram which showcases this

You can see that in the third column there are two boxes with both and X and a check mark, this is because they're inconsistently places on the screenshot. Only two are ever shown to have failed in that column at a time though so we're gonna stick with that

This means that of the 40, 32 passed and 8 failed.

Yet only 16 attend "graduation"

According to the "Who in the World is Carmen Sandiego" book, there were actually two graduation ceremonies. One in the assembly hall, a celebratory event in which VILE was still referred to as "Valuable Imports, Lavish Exports"

It's only in the in the second graduation, "Senior Seminar" as it's called in the book, that the true name of VILE comes to light. The operatives there were completely unaware of what this seminar would entail. They were chosen for their "willingness to go to any necessary extremes".

This separates the graduates into two groups

Group 1: Has the skills but not the drive Group 2: Has the skills and the drive

Group 1 seemingly never finds out that VILE is the Villains International League of Evil. What the hell happens to them? They've got plenty skills but they don't have what it takes to truly be a VILE operative. Do they become the guards we see stationed at VILE facilities, are they disposed of in some other way?

And the people who didn't graduate too, what about them? Are they mind wiped and sent back out into the world? Do they retake the course? Is it dependent on their allegiance to VILE, like if they're mentally ready just not practically?

Carmen was the exception because she lived there BUT I NEED TO KNOW

please give me your opinions i love consuming knowledge

I don't really know Chinese naming conversations well enough to say for certain but,

Would anyone have ever called Qiu Jianluo a'Luo?

Would hearing Ning Yingying call for someone by that name have made Shen Jiu sick to his stomach?

Why is Acronix's hair so hard to draw. It has NO REASON for it to be so difficult to draw I cannot believe I've been drawing him for over a year now and I still CANNOT draw his hair properly.

Rambles on my lack of gacha game knowledge (mainly hsr)

+genuine questions

How do ppl make their teams in games like hsr and genshin and wuthering waves, etc.... and even other games outside that genre that include character teams for battle.... like, does not everyone make sure everyone's different? Like, I try not to get 2 or more characters of the same element type on a team cus what if I wanna strike a weakness, but I filled in that elements place with a double.,... does not everyone think like that..?

How should I build a team is a better question. Since in reality I'm not that far into hsr. I still have March 7th, and Dan heng on my team cus March 7th has defense and is not annoying UNLIKE HERTA. Dan heng is there cus his attacks are strong despite not weakness breaking most of the time. Obviously, my glorious King Argenti is on my team, but he replaces caelus cus he's a physical. (Unfortunately, I'm grinding missions to get character exp for caelus because i can't move on in the story without him at level 40).

Idk what kind of mindset should I have when pulling for characters or building a team? Want or need? I just want Dr. Ratio because I don't have bless characters (is that the element..? I forgot) and I like Dr ratio. But I also like characters like Robin, but then again, she's a physical, and doubles are odd to me... I looked through all the 5 stars one day to see what characters I might want that will create a diverse team.

I think I know too little about gacha games. They are very confusing and have too many mechanics. Hsr was slightly easier to understand. I know people main 4 stars sometimes, I like a few 4-star characters like Sampo and Dan Heng

One last question: How do I know what abilities a character has? I hate to say it, but I'm trying to move on from March 7th, I need to spread my wings!!!! She's been a must-have though out because her defense comes in handy. Otherwise, I would be (regretfully) using Herta (she's the only other ice type). Having defense or a support or a healing character is extremely helpful, especially since you can't really use consumables in battle. I wanna know which ones do that.

Playing gacha games makes me feel like an illiterate fool because everyone understands but I'm just winging it. I'm barely understanding how to have good strong characters. As well as other things like where to get certain material and many opportunities within the game.

Any tips of assistance are appreciated, or just giggle at my rambles. I think I'm a little ridiculous, too 😭😭
