Doesn't the mere existence of Basil combined with our own insecurities cast fear into everyone? "What if I'm as dumb as ole Basil," we might think. "If I was that dumb then I wouldn't even know it. I could be speaking complete idiocies at this very moment and not even know it."
What makes you think people as dumb as Basil can even make those connections?
I did, but then again, I expected shit to happen. I didn't see the black player leave, guess i was a bit more concentrated on not losing count while still being able to see the "big picture", but did realize she was gone by the end of it, because there were only 2 black players left.
