Does this also mean that you well knew that inviting others to participate would also likely be a waste of their time?

If so... that sucks on so many levels dude.

I spoke very simply in the moment. So far you're the only one in the conversation here to assume the worst of it that I can see.

What I was talking about was the possibility. Yes, this should have been one of if not the most important term(s), but there were so many unknowns that any statement I made along those lines was more of hope and intent than anything else. I didn't say that to mislead anyone and I'm not changing my outlook in hindsight now. It's just that the reality did not match the hope, and I made it clear at the time that it was a possibility.

So please, YoDude: separate hope/intent from outcome.
