Spectator Bias

Biases that originate from an individual that is not particularly involved within an activity and is only observing from a far. The 'spectator' becomes observant and more critical of certain details as they are only analyzing and is not under any pressure to preform unlike the person involved in the activity. Therefore, if the spectator is placed within a different environment, he or she would not be able to pick up on certain details unlike the observant position. This is a more generalized term, similar to Backseat gaming.

People watching sports through television is subjected to spectator bias as they are not under the pressure of the situation.

Spectator Syndrome

Spectator Syndrome is when you do nothing with your life.

You just spectate other people and kind of take it day by day.

Days and days go by and not much has changed.

You talk about the things you want to achieve and dream of, but don't actually take opportunities or seek change.

You live on "some day isle"

Some day I'll do this..

Some day I'll do that..

Person 1: I started going to the gym, you should come with me.

Person 2: Yeah, some day I'll come, not now, I'm a bit busy now.

*1 year later*

Person 1: I'm starting a business, why don't you start a business?

Person 2: Yeah I actually want to start a business, I was telling my brother about that the other day, hopefully I'll start soon.

Person 1: You know what? I think you're suffering from Spectator Syndrome.

Person 2: What?! No I don't!

The Great Spectator

The master of the Undermap and it's third level. He was once Derf's best friend but then stole the secret to winning The Game, therefore giving him great power but making him an obvious jackass so Derf kicked him out of the Emerald Arcade. The Great Spectator then created his own realm to rule where all people go if they are killed in a game after doing something such as ninja looting or screen looking and they have to pass through the 3 Red Rings of the Undermap and endure it's trials then get kicked out with another chance, but, if you are a supreme jackass in life, after you die ,depending on how bad of a jackass you were, you get sent to one of the Red Rings. You could even get sent to the secret 4th Ring (where you'll get pwned by the Great Spectator) if you're bad enough. Through this he now serves a purpose and, his jackass status revoked, him and Derf now hang out again and is actually a pretty cool inter-dimensional being.

Player 1: 0h! pwn3d n00b!
Player 2: but dude you screen looked!
Player 1: and n00b n00bi3 n00b3r5on?
Player 2: (Shoots Player 1 in the face)
(the Great Spectator floats up from the Undermap)
The Great Spectator: come with me jackass!
Player 1: NOOOOOO!!!!! (noclips into the Undermap)
Player 2: woohoo!! thank you Great Spectator!
