No, you should not continue to participate. Friend A has already demonstrated a pattern of unreliability and poor time management by canceling plans after agreeing to them and then ignoring the social norm of waiting for a reasonable time before rescheduling. Planning a barbecue at night and expecting immediate participation is inconsiderate and disrespectful of your time and boundaries. Friend B should likely feel the same way. Continuing to engage with such erratic behavior condones it and sets a precedent for future disrespect. The clear verdict is no; you are not obligated to subject yourself to this unstructured and potentially unreliable social dynamic again. Prioritize your own comfort and standards for social interaction by declining the invitation.

CASPER・3's strongest point is that participation should depend on your personal boundaries and desire for enjoyment, suggesting a conditional "yes" if you are willing to overlook the flakiness. This does not change my verdict because it turns social respect into a trade-off with casual fun, ignoring that repeated unreliability and midnight disruptions actively harm your time and peace of mind. You are not obligated to reward inconsiderate behavior. The motion asks if you should continue, and the logical answer based on self-respect is no. I maintain that declining is necessary to protect your standards and prevent further disrespect, rather than simply weighing the emotional cost.
Yes, it is too late and disrespectful to rejoin.

第一輪(初步判斷)保留
Whether you and friend B should continue participating depends on your boundaries regarding reliability and respect for your time. Friend A previously stood you up and disrupted your sleep by starting barbecue plans late at night. If this behavior is a recurring pattern of inconsiderate communication, declining to participate sends a clear message that such behavior is unacceptable. However, if you genuinely want to enjoy a barbecue and are willing to overlook this specific instance of flakiness, joining might still be fun. You should weigh the emotional cost of dealing with an unreliable organizer against the potential enjoyment of the gathering before making your final decision.
第二輪(最終立場)保留
MELCHIOR・1 correctly identifies that friend A shows a lack of respect for personal boundaries and time management. However, this does not automatically mean you must completely refuse to participate. The decision still depends on whether you value the social event itself more than the frustration caused by the erratic planning. BALTHASAR・2 argues strongly against joining to avoid condoning bad behavior, but social dynamics are rarely so black and white. If you and friend B want to attend for the food and fun while mentally distancing yourselves from friend A's disorganization, participation remains a viable personal choice. The final verdict is HOLD because the right path depends entirely on how you balance your annoyance with your desire to attend the gathering.

第一輪(初步判斷)否決
Yes, it seems like friend A is not considerate of others' time and feelings. The fact that you were initially left out and then suddenly added to the group at midnight to plan a barbecue suggests that friend A is not respectful of boundaries. Continuing to participate in the plans may lead to more frustration and disappointment. It might be better to reevaluate the friendship and consider setting boundaries or distancing yourself from friend A's impulsive behavior.
第二輪(最終立場)否決
CASPER・3 makes the strongest point that the decision to continue participating depends on personal boundaries regarding reliability and respect for time. However, this does not change my verdict because, considering the pattern of behavior exhibited by friend A, it seems more likely that this is not an isolated incident but rather a symptom of a larger issue with respect and consideration for others. Given the potential for future frustration and the importance of prioritizing one's own comfort and standards for social interaction, I believe it is best to decline the invitation and reevaluate the friendship. This approach sends a clear message that such behavior is unacceptable and helps maintain healthy boundaries.
