why would you ever sacrifice yourself; there’s no point

toothpaste tastes good by default wtf

if there’s a 1000 reward for sacrificing yourself i would do it in a heartbeat, cause i know im not winning so i would like free money

it’s just something to generate drama really

and giving people a martyr is really good for relevancy

No but see

First he locks them in trios. He makes one sacrifice in each trio, or they all lose

Doesnt make sense to sacrifice now

But if they all are gonna get eliminated, might as well play a game on your own, let 2 pass, loser sacrifices. So at least you have a chance. Flip a coin, roll a dice, anything you want. Everyone who played a game and lost agreed to follow through except two people - one who caught on that the others were cheating (justified) and one who lost fair and square but decided to fuck them over anyway. He took the 66% chance to survive to proceed, the others would have sacrificed themselves, thats why its scummy. He was always getting eliminated, but he just eliminated them for no reason

i think lol understood that but i could be misinterpreting

also i was gonna bring it up individually but yes there really is no point

i’d understand the argument if it was a final 3 and it was one person out or three people out but other people are gonna… win anyway.

there’s nothing to gain via self sacrifice, in a bubble

Its like borrowing money from friends and not returning them coz theres no direct benefit to you. The point is youre breaking a social contract between you and your friends / acquitances, not strangers or MrBeast

Its like betting 10 dollars on a game of poker with friends, losing, and refusing to pay them. It’s not a sacrifice to pay money for a lost game/bet

that’s an entirely different thing

Nope

This will never happen to me. PERIOD

in a pure game theory form, not considering any adverse outside the game effects, never surrendering is the objectively best choice for someone who values themselves minorly or extremely above strangers

I’ve watched video essays on criticizing Mr Beast Squid Games. Seems you can just bribe people with 200.000$ in exchange for an entire row of people falling down a shoot (dispensable much?)

the best part of the entire mr beast squid game thing is that he saw squid game being a critique of what people are willing to do for money and how it destroys people and their morals and decided “I want to do that.”

It does feel like exactly squid games in real life. Rich lord is trying to make desperate peasants to fight over a very small fraction of his yearly income
