Minority Rules [whops... ended already?]

[Regan]

I'm choosing death, mwaahahaaa!!!!

[Siniri]

I'm choosing death, mwaahahaaa!!!!

But if you do, you're sure to die -- death will be the majority this time, for sure.

[Twizzler0171]

Unless it's not... then the people who chose Cake will die. Maybe the cake is poisoned, and Death is not. =O

[Pink]

So...if the majority of people choose Cake, wouldn't they, in actuality, be choosing death...and those who choose Death would be choosing life?

[Dyl]

It looks like death is being picked the most; well I think it looks that way from the exposition on the thread, though people could be lying. Like the cake. Maybe that's why death is being picked?

That is my goal. Causing death for myself and others will be a piece of cake.

Answers to #5

"Sorry I'm late," said Wind, rushing to the front of the crowd. "I was trying to find a suitable Grim Reaper costume, but I couldn't find anything my size. Here are today's results, which go to show that cake is after all a much safer choice."

Cake (4) - loser, amarise, Rachel, Pink
Death (8) - Siniri, Twiz, May, Katherine, StuMan, Regan, pipsqueek, Dyl
No answer (1) - Ammer

"Just 6 people left... looks like we could finish in time for me to have Saturday off. Things are looking good," said Wind, happily waving goodbye to the eliminated players.

Question #6

"Next question will be from... Pink!" Wind checked her notes. "Now remember the new rules. No reference whatsoever to: ducks, penguins, pandas, woodchucks, comedians or products whose consumption is illegal for minors. This list is subjected to being amended at any time depending on the degree of stupidity that future questions will reach."

She paused for breath, and Pink asked her question: "Is the glass half-empty or half-full?"

Wind nodded. "Ok. You know the rest. PMs, 24 hours, blah blah blah, good luck."

[pipsqueeek]

It's most obviously twice as big as it needs to be.

I don't get why it has to be that you're a pessimist if you say half empty and an optimist if you say half full. I prefer to put the emphasis on the half. So, for example, yeah, but it's only half full. But on the bright side, it's only half empty.

Or the glass could contain something disgusting. In which case you would want it to be as close empty as possible.

[Evil Stu Man]

Sigh. I am dead. Well it was a good game. Thanks for hosting it wind.

[Siniri]

Why did I go with the opposite of my gut the last two rounds where I lost a life? So dumb... Thanks for a fun game, Wind. And good luck to those left.

[Twizzler0171]

Aaw, I knew I should have gone with cake. Oh well.

Wind, will you be using the questions of those who have been eliminated, if you run out of living people? I really like one of mine. XD

[Urthdigger]

Somehow, I find it deliciously ironic that choosing death did in fact make you lose a life.

[Katherine]

Am I dead? I think so...

[Dyl]

The glass obviously contains liquid equal to exactly fifty percent of its capacity.

Ah, but do you know that that is true? Perhaps it's all a conspiracy to distract us by making us argue about half empty and half full when the glass is, in reality, neither. Have you ever actually measured the volume of water in the supposedly half empty, half full glass and compared it with its total capacity? We have no guarantee that the glass is half anything. Also, you have an extraneous apostrophe, which nullifies any argument you might be making
