So, I watched again one of the terrific Derren Brown Experiment episodes called The Gameshow. He demonstrates how people - probably all nice and friendly individuals - together can form a mob taking control over another individual whom they have never met or seen before and make some very nasty decisions to influence his evening.
Watch for yourself - it's an hour filled with humor, surprises and a shocking end if you haven't already seen it.

The reason I put the link up here is that watching the show, I suddenly saw what is happening at our club in a different perspective.
If I switch Derren Brown and his back stage team with Gary Hoffman and his backing.
If I switch the audience with me, you and all the other contributors on fans forums.
If I switch the victim with sisu.
Then the only actual difference is the reaction at the shocking end.
