User:The Council

I am from San Francisco, CA. I attended CTY 05.1 at SMCM, and 06.1-08.1 at LMU, taking GAME A, LOGC, and ETHC, in that order.

In 06.1, I was in C-Bad's asylum. I was the one who came up with the name to describe how there was no sanity in our hall, and it was rather isolated (as all first floor Rosecranz halls are).

In 07.1, I was on the second floor of Rosecranz, which also included the legendary Ryan's hall with all of the most highly respected male nevermores of 07.1. Furthermore, Petr Sharetskiy was in Shabe's hall, which was also on that floor, and my hall (Alfred's hall), had two onemores, including the tallest kid in camp, and a five year freak twomore.

In 08.1, I was on third floor Rosecranz in Jonathan's hall. I was responsible for starting the "Hi Dane" tradition, as well as convincing Dane to banana phone the "How to Romance like a Frenchman" activity.

Anyone can add stuff they know about me below (only if they actually know me...)

• The_Council doesn't believe in free will, and debated on it at the end of the first week of LOGC, along with emmatheduck, the only other person in the class who was smart enough to figure out that free will doesn't exist (and also the person who's writing this, in case you didn't guess). He also misspelled 'why' when writing up the free will argument, thus ruining an entire side of a piece of posterboard.

I will add more when I think of it :-)

Correction to Emma's: I maintain an impossiblist position on free will, meaning that I do not think it exists on a metaphysical level, but it does exist epistemologically. I maintain the same belief about personal identity, and everyone knows that I cannot spell.

• The_Council took his username from a common way of expressing his opinions that he used in LOGC 07.1. He would often say something like "The Council would like to suggest..." Also, he often shouted things such as "I beg to differ!" --Lizzy

On Lizzy's note, "The Council seconds/rejects the motion" was originally derived from the Magic: The Gathering themed webcomic UGmadness.

• Allegra, while she doesn't know him, would like to add that The_Council did indeed start the Hi Dane phenomenon, and gave her a death threat to make sure she would continue this phenomenon. :(
