Thank you. Hello and welcome delegates all to your exclusive glimpse into the future in this concluding episode of the Delegation Game.

In this bonus episode we have two missions. First, to examine the fates of your individual

characters, what they went on to do, and how this strange experience of peacemaking shaped them.

Second, provide context to this world they left behind, and how it differs from our own, based on my

very scientific calculations. Originally, you may be aware, I had planned to separate the two

episodes into one, with the world and the characters getting their own episodes. After working

at this script for more than a week, though, I just came to the decision that combining the two

provides a better narrative and a more compelling story.

Keeping everything tidy like this means we will also bid farewell to the game in the final section of this episode.

So stick around at the end for my concluding thoughts on everything,

as well as the results of the prestigious 74th annual Delegation Game Awards, or something like that.

Considering the sheer range of delegates on offer, our to-do list today seems incredibly long,

hence the ridiculous length of this episode, but I should prefix this by saying,

not everyone can have a supremely detailed epilogue for their character.

The way I have worked this

episode is that everyone will get something, but the more active players will get more. I think that

considering how this game has evolved into roughly 10 very active players, what about 35 technically

active ones, this makes the most sense. And of course, it makes the task considerably less daunting for me.

Obviously, we still have the largest episode we've yet produced, but hopefully with all these

elements, blended together and working coherently, you won't really notice its length.

For this episode, I'll use a mixture of narrative and analysis, explaining the fate of delegates

by looking at their real life fate,
