| May 4, 2021 at 12:39 | comment | added | Valorum | That's addressed in the MI Handbook. Kids that are exposed to too many monsters (or the same monster too often, or a monster that isn't very scary) become less easy to scare, hence why Roz is so obsessed with her paperwork. | |
| May 4, 2021 at 11:59 | comment | added | TheLethalCarrot♦ | I was going to say a less skilled scarer wouldn’t necessarily burn through more doors but that does bring up another question that might be worthy of its own post. Why does each door have a dedicated scarer rather than rotating through scarers? | |
| May 4, 2021 at 11:55 | comment | added | Valorum | We also see some less capable Scarers right at the start of the film. They're not scary, they're prone to breaking the rules and they risk the exposure of the monster world | |
| May 4, 2021 at 11:54 | comment | added | Valorum | @TheLethalCarrot - A less skilled scarer would burn through doors much quicker, exacerbating the problem, not helping it. | |
| May 4, 2021 at 11:50 | comment | added | TheLethalCarrot♦ | On your other point: lack of doors. It f they’re only using doors from one half of the world then that’s more evidence to need a night shift surely? We’re running out of doors on the Eastern Seaboard but we don’t use any from the Western Seaboard, okay move shift times to include the Western Seaboard. | |
| May 4, 2021 at 11:48 | comment | added | TheLethalCarrot♦ | This is backed up by your 23-19 example where that is actually a skilled scarer, just careless in that moment. A more careful semi skilled scarer might be better in the long run. | |
| May 4, 2021 at 11:46 | comment | added | TheLethalCarrot♦ | There’s a difference between lack of skill and carelessness; the former means more low energy output and the latter 23-19! And more lower skilled scarers working round the clock would still give more energy output than not having them. | |
