Commune just feels like an instant-win cheat code in this tournament, tbh.

Also I'd be tempted to argue that 'commune' is more the noun for the place where you all live rather than the collective noun for you all but mostly it's the instant-win thing

Waddling vs Destruction was hard for some reason.
How many people long for that "past, simpler, and better world," I wonder,
without ever recognizing the truth that perhaps it was they who were simpler and better,
and not the world about them?

You're just salty that the Commonwealth isn't cool enough to get nominated.
