However, for Kong Yuxin, she had long been ntally prepared for this.
Compared to the ‘8-person room’, the ‘13-person room’ had more positions, so it required more free agents to occupy those positions.
Since Wang Weidong could think of this in advance, it ant that the ‘13-person room’ side had already made corresponding preparations.
The players from Community 17 who went to dismantle the rigged setup were also unlikely to succeed.
Under circumstances where both sides failed, the side with more people could extract more visa ti from the questioner, so by the end of the ga, Community 15 and Community 13 would still have higher earnings.
Kong Yuxin quietly sighed. There was nothing she could do now, she could only hope that on the ‘13-person room’ side, Wang Weidong could extract more visa ti from the Community 17 players.
...
Earlier, in the ‘13-person room’.
The last Community 13 player to enter the ‘13-person room’ had already reported the sequence to all players according to their agreed-upon code phrase.
The third-to-last player to enter the ‘13-person room’ was Cai Zhiyuan.
Therefore, the first two players quickly passed their questions, transferring the questioner identity to Cai Zhiyuan.
At the sa ti, the ‘13-person room’ host Wang Weidong had already set up the sa rule.
[‘13-person room’: All players must continuously send the majority opinion they currently receive.]
Clearly, he had also thought of the sa thod, preparing to use this rule to force all players to submit unanimously agreed-upon options, then lock Cai Zhiyuan forever in the 'questioner' position, continuously extracting visa ti.
If Cai Zhiyuan couldn't think of a good way to break this, then obviously the ‘13-person room’ would earn visa ti at a faster rate.
After the last player to enter the room provided information, Xu Zhao confird that Cai Zhiyuan had indeed entered the ‘13-person room’.
But he still couldn't understand where Cai Zhiyuan's confidence ca from.
Because the types of questions that could currently be asked were limited to just a few kinds.
Either professional questions, or information gap questions, or logic questions.
But no matter what type of question, as long as it could promote a unanimous option, the questioner would definitely lose.
Against-conscience options were a variable, but the more people in a room, the less this needed to be worried about.
Because through the room rules, they could ensure stable acquisition of the 'unanimous' extra reward.
And the more players in the room, the more reward they would get, enough to offset the loss from a small number of players' against-conscience penalties.
As long as not a large number of players all chose against their conscience, it would be fine.
For the answerers to gain earnings above 5500 was very simple.
At the sa ti, since the number of players controlled by Community 15 clearly exceeded half, they would definitely win the vote and could lock Cai Zhiyuan in the questioner position to continuously 'stay in power'.
Although as long as earnings were between 5500 and negative 5500, one could default to not staying in power, the problem was that in the ‘13-person room’, the earnings fluctuation was too large, making this almost impossible to achieve.
As for Cai Zhiyuan as the questioner obtaining positive earnings higher than 5500?
That was even more impossible.
Xu Zhao considered it from Cai Zhiyuan's position, and no matter how he thought about it, he felt this was a dead end with absolutely no way to break through.
...
After waiting a mont, Cai Zhiyuan's question appeared.
[So players in dangerous life-and-death gas, in order to obtain extra earnings, deliberately mislead players from the sa community to engage in high-risk behaviors, resulting in their deaths. Have you ever had similar thoughts?]
[A. Yes]
[B. Never]
[C. I have no intention of deliberately harming players from other communities]
Seeing the content of the question, Xu Zhao was stunned.
"What kind of question is this?"
He frowned tightly. Obviously, the correct answer to this question was clear at a glance: you must choose according to your true inner thoughts.
For options A and B, if you deliberately chose wrong, it would directly trigger the wrong answer penalty plus the against-conscience penalty, which would be an extrely exaggerated number.
As for option C, it seed completely unrelated to this question.
It would definitely be the wrong option, but whether it was an against-conscience option was uncertain.
Xu Zhao fell into deep thought. He questioned himself and concluded that he should choose A.
He had indeed had similar thoughts before.
After all, the New World was a very cruel place. In life-and-death gas, it was either you die or I live. So what if they were from the sa community? If only one person could survive, anyone would choose themselves, right?
Moreover, this question only asked 'have you had similar thoughts', not 'have you actually done such behavior'.
Was it not allowed to even think about it?
Therefore, Xu Zhao planned to choose option A.
The against-conscience judgnt in these gas was absolutely accurate. Even if players could deceive themselves, they absolutely couldn't deceive the Gallery, so Xu Zhao didn't plan to deceive himself.
But choosing option A was just his personal thought. As for which one to specifically choose, he still had to look at the majority opinion.
After all, they still needed to get the 'unanimous' reward.
However, Xu Zhao glanced at the suggestions submitted by most players displayed on the right side of the big screen, where option B clearly predominated, even mixed with so option C choices.
Xu Zhao was sowhat surprised, "So many people have clear consciences?"
According to the room rules, ordinary players would quickly unanimously submit option B, and although free agent players could submit freely, it no longer changed the overall situation.
In other words, option B would definitely beco the unanimous option in the end.
But Xu Zhao instinctively sensed sothing was wrong. Cai Zhiyuan asking this question didn't seem as simple as it appeared.
"Cai Zhiyuan seems very confident, he must have another plan.
"Before entering the room, why did he ask if I had done anything against my conscience?
"Could it be that...
"His plan isn't inside the ga, but outside the ga!"
Xu Zhao suddenly realized a blind spot he had been overlooking all along.
After returning to the community, player ga records could be checked!
In other words, no matter whether this question chose A or B, it could be found out afterwards.
And through the reward and penalty chanism within the ga, through the specific earnings numbers, one could determine whether this option truly represented the player's true inner thoughts.
If it was a sincere choice, it wouldn't trigger the against-conscience penalty. Conversely, if it triggered the against-conscience penalty, then it was a lie.
That also ant that the answering players' dark inner thoughts would be completely made public.
What would their situation in the community be like then?
Xu Zhao put himself in that position and thought about it empathetically, suddenly feeling cold sweat streaming down.
That kind of consequence would definitely be much more serious than the visa ti deducted by one against-conscience penalty.
Because other players in the community would absolutely never treat soone who 'had thought about deliberately causing the death of sa-community players' as a reliable companion.
Of course, what exactly other people in the community would do was hard to determine. The lightest consequence would most likely be being privately isolated, a moderately serious consequence would be being kicked out of the community in a ga, and the most serious consequence might even be being voted to death in exchange for visa ti.
Therefore, at this mont, the optimal choice for Xu Zhao was actually to choose C.
