Round Three

[dramatispersonae]

[You're back in the white room with the pool -- you can see Kunzite moving around in the pool. The Twins' voice echoes from the ceiling]

I've asked Kunzite to punch a teammate! Now, do you bet they will or that they won't? Remember, they don't know which action will get them points.

Oh, that one is trickier.

Re: Round Three

[sticksofthejedi]

And by now they've got to realize we're trying to predict what they're doing.

Re: Round Three

[shipwithwings]

[flips a wing, eh]

Re: Round Three

[sticksofthejedi]

Do you think they'll let it figure in at all?

Re: Round Three

[shipwithwings]

I do not think it matters.

Re: Round Three

[sticksofthejedi]

[shrug]

Then they won't do it, right?

Re: Round Three

[dormancy]

Who thinks they'll bluff?

Re: Round Three

[uroboric]

Before that, what's the real answer? Would they do it?

Re: Round Three

[dormancy]

They wouldn't.

Re: Round Three

[playfreebird]

Is it that important to them?

Re: Round Three

[dormancy]

Of what I know of their team, they're all fairly non-violent.

Re: Round Three

[playfreebird]

I agree with Kyouko; that won't change to bluff us.

Re: Round Three

[dormancy]

Precisely. So, the margin is slim. Then, we're betting that they won't?

Re: Round Three

[playfreebird]

I don't know them beyond what I saw during the last game. I'll bow to the judgment of people who know them better.

Re: Round Three

[shipwithwings]

Liberty may be all right with it, but I do not think Bones or Meadow would like it. I do not know the knight they have with them.

Re: Round Three

[uroboric]

If they're not alright with it, doesn't that mean they're not gonna try to trick us? 'Cause in that case they'd have to go through with it anyway.

Re: Round Three

[shipwithwings]

It depends on who is doing the punching and who is being punched.

Re: Round Three

[dormancy]

If we exempt the knight, the only situation that would work is if Liberty punched Bones . . . Is that right?

Re: Round Three

[shipwithwings]

Yes, that sounds right. Bones is much bigger, he could take a punch better.

Re: Round Three

[dormancy]

And I don't think Bones would punch Liberty. It's just a feeling.

So, we're fairly sure that they won't, even if they wanted to prove us wrong. I think it's safe to take that bet.
