Taco Week: Taco Dilemma Forum Game

[Thedairos]

Taco Dilemma

Sign-ups are now open until Wednesday at 12pm EDT/ Thursday at 4am UTC . If you'd like to participate, please post in this thread!

For the Taco Dilemma game, all players will be devided into four groups. Each group starts with 5000 tacos for every member. During every round, the members need to decide whether to vote for X or Y. Depending on how every team votes, each one either wins or loses some of their tacos. Every group gets to discuss their strategy in an internal forum message chat, while communication with other groups is not allowed except for during the third round. Each round will last for 12 hours. Please tell me your votes in your internal group chat by boldening the chosen letter and pinging me. I will then announce every group's vote in the public thread at the end of each round. The game will end after the fifth round and everyone will win the amount of tacos that their team has left. Debt does not exist in this game, instead it will just be counted as 0.


Here are the possible outcomes:
4Y: everyone wins 1000 tacos
3Y, 1X: Y loses 1000 tacos, X wins 3000 tacos
2Y, 2X: Y loses 2000 tacos, X wins 2000 tacos
1Y, 3X: Y wins 3000 tacos, X loses 1000 tacos
4X: everyone loses 1000 tacos
