EPISODE FOUR: PRISONERS DILEMMA

Contestants,

Before the next quiz you must complete this mission.

Like in seasons past, it has proved difficult to pass.

During this mission you will be paired up in 5 duos.

Each contestant in each duo must make an individual decision of either:

1. Passing up 5 Freebies or;
2. Taking 5 Freebies.

This means that there are 3 potential scenarios for each duo to achieve:

1. Both contestants passing up the Freebies, neither person gains Freebies.
2. One contestant taking the Freebies, while the other passes them up, only one person gains Freebies.
3. Both taking the Freebies, resulting in nobody getting it.

Now, in the five duos - only a maximum of two can achieve scenario 2 or 3.

That means at least 3 duos MUST achieve scenario 1 for this mission to be passed.

Unlike the past series' I have given The Mole the decision of picking the duos, therefore the following duo's are as follows:

Pair 1: Glenn & Cuda
Pair 2: Zee & Lee
Pair 3: Drew & Kate
Pair 4: Ben & Josiah
Pair 5: Tregard & Annie

I require everybodies individual decision via PM.

Good luck contestants.

Is conferring allowed?

[Benjamin]

I knew it.

[T*]

Hmmmm.....

[Benjamin]

I'm confused though, is this still part of the same episode? Or is there a double execution?

[Benjamin]

Also, I know people will take the freebies, but we have a chance to get a win here, so I promise I won;t be taking them.

[Tregard]

Guys, if we do this correctly, we can each get one freebie.

[T*]

I don't really understand

[Benjamin]

You mean share them out?

[Drew.]

ah Kate, excellent

[Benjamin]

But then we may aswell all just pass them up, since if we all get one we are no better off lol.

I fully expect drew to be taking the freebies, and Glenn.

Yeah, take two people on different teams (E.g. You & Kate) and have them and them alone take the freebies. They distribute them amongst the players, everyone gets a freebie and we pass.

[Benjamin]

Basically if more than two people from ANY pair try go for the freebies, we fail.

[Glenn.]

[Benjamin]

Well, if more than two of us go for freebies we fail.

[T*]

Glenn, what do.

[Drew.]

BUT if we set it up like this, anyone who goes against the plan is clear, they know we'll fail if they try to take the freebies, whereas if we say "nobody is going for them", then they can claim they didn't know we'd fail

[Benjamin]

Look, I know I messed up the last task, but this is an easy win here if we are sensible.

[T*]

can I has freebies?

[Marc]

Conferring is allowed, however your individual decisions must be sent to me privately (PM)

This is the same episode, not a double termination
