What it says on the box. This is basically a variant of "The Prisoner's Dilemma". Each game needs three people, two players and a game mod. In the "Setup" portion, each player PMs the mod which goblet they want poisoned: the one in front of themselves, or the one in front of the other player. (And no, "Both" is not a legal option. ) In the "Drink" portion, each player then negotiates with the other player on which goblet is drank. (Each goblet can only be drank by the one person.) In the "Aftermath" portion, the game mod then resolves the choices based on the PMs he or she had received. Anybody up to playing? ;D

Drink
Since Roosh sent his PM first, NAF has first choice in drinking.
Which goblet will you choose, NAF?

Isn't there a theory for this sort of a dilemma? Like a mathematical thing on what to do always for the best results? Ah... Game Theory how I wish I had paid more attention to you.....

So wait. Which one am I drinking? Are you drinking mine or am I drinking mine? Is that a command or a choice?

I think you choose from the set of glasses I poisened (one in front of me, one in front of you) then I choose from the set of glasses you have poisened. I think. Or maybe we both drink at the same time, and we both die if we each chose to poison the opposite glass. Did you poison my glass or yours?

Clarification:
In the "Drink" phase, each player can choose which goblet to drink from.
NAF, due to Roosh submitting his poision choice first, can choose his goblet first.
Pick your poison, NAF. ;D

I think there's only 2 glasses, mate. We each have a chance to poison them, and now we drink. That was my impression.

You have to choose first i believe.
I assume I then choose. But I don't know if I can choose the same cup as you (I'm under the impression that whatever YOU choose is the key here, and then you drink. And if you're still alive, I suppose I drink?)

NAF has the first choice - to choose a cup, or to pass. If he chooses, then you automatically drink from the other cup by default. If he passes, then you MUST choose a cup (and he chooses the other).

Aight. So do you want ME to choose first (and thusly you passing?), NAF?

ok, I get it.
I think I will choose, but lets talk about it first. What would you do if you were me.

Wait a minnit... this seems to be a silly game. NAF already knows which glass he poisoned. He's not going to select that glass under any circumstances, so the only real game is whether or not Roosh chose to posion the same glass as him. Right?

Yeah, so the next time I may allow three options: 1) Poison your own glass. 2) Poison your opponent's glass. 3) Hi, Opal! Poison neither glass. That would make the game closer to a true Prisoner's Dilemma.

He's not going to select that glass under any circumstances, so the only real game is whether or not Roosh chose to posion the same glass as him. Right? Exactly my view going into this game. Actually I tried to poison neither glasses, but Dotchan wouldn't let me. So yeah, I'm just waiting for you NAF to pick a cup, and the best I can hope for is that both of us die. Or that you're stupid enough to pick the cup that you poisoned and that that cup is the same one i poisoned. So yeah. Go ahead and pick dude. I ain't talking this out with you

Give me Roosh's glass. Let's see if we both die or not.

Resolution
Each man takes the glass opposite him.
A moment of tenseness that is palpable in the air.
Then Roosh turns a rather frightening shade of blue and falls over, foaming at the mouth.
Roosh poisoned: NAF's glass. NAF poisoned: NAF's glass.
Roosh died, doubly! Ouch.
Congratulations, NAF, for being lucky.
Discuss the game, you two: Should I include a "poison neither glass" option, to make the game more like the prisoner's dilemma?
How do you like the "first in/last out" method I used to resolve who gets to choose which goblet to drink first?
Would you play the game again?

How do you like the "first in/last out" method I used to resolve who gets to choose which goblet to drink first? Would you play the game again? 1. Yes. 2. Meh. 3. I probably wouldn't play the game, because it's basically a coin flip. If you get to pick first- then obviously you should just ALWAYS pick the glass you didn't poison. It's a No-brainer, and basically a set action. So i dunno, I wouldn't play it again, because it doesn't seem like there's anything to it. Like I got to poison to glasses first, so NAF got to go first? But he still got to poison the glasses? I dunno, it makes no sense to me, and it's an incentive then simply NOT to turn your actions until as late as possible so as to get the chance to pick first, and that way you get at least a 50% shot of winning vs. an even slimmer chance.
