[Upon entering your team's cloud of mist, you find yourselves transported to a bare stone room with a single stone table and chairs. (The chairs have been bolted to the floor.) On the table are a 16 red stones, 8 blue stones, and a 2 black stones. There are also indentations around the edge of the table, each one marked in the color of one of the teams.]

Isn't it? I wonder what our modus operandi will be this time, though.

We'll see, won't we.

Do you have a preference?

Re: Discussion

[dormancy]

I'm not sure how much I can say, especially considering the question of anonymity . . . But the kindness of sparing all others at the expense of one appeals to me, haha.

And if you are worried about our morals we can give all the blue stones to one.

Re: Discussion

[playfreebird]

...I could support that.

Re: Discussion

[dormancy]

I would never worry about my morals, but it would take care of what to do with those stones, yes.

Re: Discussion

[arbiterary]

Alternatively we could take all of the red stones for our selves and play all of the blue and one black on one team, and the other black on another.

Re: Discussion

Can we avoid doing something as tasteless as taking all of the red stones?

Re: Discussion

[arbiterary]

If we defend ourselves then it negates it. I'm not interested in self-injury.

Re: Discussion

[fallinflames]

We can't defend against all of our stones if they're weighted equally, and others will play against us as well. I'm not interested in self-sacrifice in this case.

Re: Discussion

[dormancy]

It won't negate all of it. Those stones will be going elsewhere.

Re: Discussion

[arbiterary]

Which are you more concerned for? Equality? Image? Or your own skin?

Re: Discussion

We've already played hero before. I'm not sacrificing myself to save someone else; Only a coward and fool that doesn't deserve mercy would accept such a cheap lie.
