      He wrote himself into a corner with his villain being too powerful and well-prepared to defeat and wanted ideas on how to fix it, but he was incapable of admitting he screwed up. So instead he told the readers they had to “guess” his plan (read: come up with one for him), and even threatened to give the story a bad end if they didn’t. It was utterly transparent but his fanbase ate it up.
