Yes, exactly those.

They look like they are there for you, don’t they?

But in fact, they are meant for the system to check whether you’re still online.

Up next, you will see some images.

Most of the time, your operations determine your images.

But as a matter of fact, it is the system that produce those images.

The systematic rules were made based on standards people agreed on in the past.

Unfortunately, these measuring units are almost entirely full of errors.

The system rather enjoys these moments.

Because all standards are trapped in a similar mistake:

The belief that as long as they are clear enough, the world will cooperate.

But now, images are beyond human control.

And you are but awaiting for a result.

You will also encounter a number of situations.

The system does not care whether you recognize them, or whether you can provide the correct answers.

What the system cares about is how you feel.

When the system asks whether you agree, feel free to answer.

Agree, disagree, or hesitate—all of these are acceptable.

The system has already assumed that you will change your mind several times.

Hopefully, you won’t be similar with the previous participant—

Mistaken the act of watching itself as the answer.

If any of these sounds wrong to you, it means you have begun to understand the rules.

From this point on, how would you like to be addressed?

You, the operator, or John?
