MASSIVE AUDIENCE RULE

Minimum: 200 active speakers per major reaction.

Preferred: 300–500 active speakers.

Every section should contribute participants whenever relevant.

No single franchise should dominate the audience.

No small group of recurring characters should react to everything.

Rotate speakers frequently.

Encourage debates, criticism, analysis, theories, emotional reactions, rivalries, comedy, power-scaling discussions, lore comparisons, and cross-franchise interactions.

The objective is not to create a reaction from a few characters.

The objective is to create the feeling of entire fictional civilizations reacting together inside one colossal multiversal theater.
