Oh, and that's where you're wrong. You see, I'm taking this game rather seriously. And the reason is simple: because I'm quite confident that I'm going to win.

[ Of course, she's not stupid. She just doesn't see the point in getting depressed or upset over someone else's death. People die all the time, after all. People kill and get killed. It's nothing new.

Even if it's still disgusting in her eyes. ]

Then you're either a Communist who's feeling pretty good about their odds right now, or a Citizen who hasn't done the math. If we get it right every time from here on out, and the Troubleshooter eliminates one of the Communists, too, it'll take us five days to reach our win condition. Unless the Defense Officer gets lucky, that's five more dead Citizens. Of the 18 people still alive, the most that can survive this exercise is 7, maybe 8. Even in the best case scenario, that's less than half.

And who are the Communists going to pick for their victims? People who pose a threat to them. Either those tasked with the "Mandatory Bonus Volunteer Duties" or those who are playing to win. Unless your brilliant winning strategy is to kick back and let everybody else do the heavy lifting, I wouldn't be feeling too good about my chances right now.

[ He sure doesn't expect to still be standing at the end of the exercise, that's for sure. ]

I don't really care about the math as long as I win the game myself. Regardless of the fact that this is a team building game, the fact is that you cannot trust anyone, regardless if you end up becoming friends with them or not. And that's not what I'm here for.

Besides, we're still missing plenty of information, and there's still one rule that nobody has taken into account. Just because you've done the math doesn't mean that I haven't been paying attention.
