if we did one per minute, we are looking at about 10 hours of solid thwacks. give or take. im sure we could shave that down by a few seconds per, they are a physically weak people on average. so i imagine we could get it done in half the time if we shave it to 30 seconds per billionaire. and have them all lined up. ready to go.
thats an afternoon. about 5 hours at 30 seconds a pop.
I appreciate the Silcon Valley-esque efficiency calculation but honestly that’s not a super high requirement. 5 hours, 10 hours, a week, whatever. No need to speed run this thing. Honestly if we were good in a year I’d be thrilled.
Guillotine blades get dull. And they’re kind of heavy.
So to keep things moving I motion that we set up half a dozen of them. Each one would handle 100 people, which would still absolutely wreck the blade. But that’s a price I’m willing to pay.

We could really drag this out. Make a reality TV series. Merchandising rights. Lots of opportunities to make some money here…

I’ll donate a blade to lower any cost concerns.
Some rope too.
Anyone else?
Anyone have some trees they’re willing to have milled for the frame?
Sure, I have some wood ready here.
That’s not really fair to the billionaires at the beginning of the line, who are probably going to be the most deserving.
Dulled guillotine blades for everyone!
We’ll make it a speed run event sort of thing. GDQ: Guillotines Done Quick.
