Charles, to me, sounded a lot like Ricky Gervais. Not so much the accent, but the intonation - that's the curse of the auditory set, its all about what we hear.

Bill, when do you think you can release the first version of the FAQ addendum?Posted by Bill Ryan (here)
Beautiful.
I'm working on a "Charles FAQ" addendum (quite a major document!) - which I think is the best way to address the many questions presented, and to enlarge on the complicated backstory.
One of the issues is the complexity of the concepts involved. And it's not easy to absorb this complexity when the subjects under discussion are so highly charged.
Why not make it 2 parts, so that there is already something to chew on?
I agree. Also at that level of the game "clever" is a compliment of the highest order implying ingenuity. He was a sincere witness who made a great personal struggle to force himself into a public confession modality. The 33 overstepped their reach and tried to force Charles to face their consequences alone against the machinery. His life was spared by the machine to insure full disclosure of a 33 malfunction which they knew not to resists further. Beyond the data content it had the type of personal style on both sides that engaged the viewers desire to understand the drama. He was a psychic assassin performing a mission at their behest who was stopped by what he considered a worthy opponent. The exchange reminded me of a Avalon video of a natural battle that occurred between the tigers, the water buffalo and the crocodile. The leader of the water buffalo retreated briefly from the tigers strategically exposing a calf to inspire the herd, the tigers pounced quickly upon it, the crocodile was the wild card. By entering the fray the balance shifted. The video left me scratching my head wondering what kind of karmic cycle would lead a crocodile to accidentally save a calf from the tigers and a shrewd buffalo leader.
There are so many layers to the game that the 33 can't risk their entire stakes on covering up a single mistake. The Avalon Project and Camelot Project are valuable to people as sincere witnesses doing their best to describe their current POV relationship to eternity. To watch enough of the varied spectrum of players trying sincerely to survive time lines and all the commentary leads to possible new synthesis of solutions.
Your a honest person Bill and a damn good sport.
Thanks,
Arthur

General POV background neither endorsing or disclaiming the table top models portrayed and offered in the context of Charles's summary witnessing of a process composed of events; and my perception of his standing, in the universe creating game's vast multi-leveled environments..

Personally I think "Charles" is extremely clever. Speaks of issues in one direction but which may be applied in other directions. ie Monsanto and Genetically modifying "seeds", and the 33 Genetically modifying the human seed (DNA). Monsanto is a Company which wants control of the food supply. Suppliers will have to use 'their seeds'. Buyers/traders will have to use their suppliers and their seeds.......control the stock, control the quality/purity of the stock. Many ETs reportedly need human genetic material for various reasons.
Then there are the Seed Banks....for the future.
