With only one round in, some teams are already eating rats, even raw!!!
Desperate times call for desperate measures and this is one of those times. The teams are making their choices and struggling for survival. I’ve group of few “loose players” into teams and also had to toss the coin, but we are pressing on!
Yesterday the teams found a rat and had to choose what to do with it. Here are the options and the teams that chose them.
OPTION 1 – Try to kill, cook, and eat the rat.
Though a certain risks of attracting attention with the delicious aroma of cooked rat meat, the rat cooked quickly. It provided a delicious meal for your team and you are both quite satisfied with that your decision worked out well. With your bellies full, you progress with a renewed excitement and zeal. Your team has until the end of Day 3 (gameplay) to successfully find another meal.

OPTION 2 – Try to kill the rat and eat it raw.
Though it has probably always been on your bucket list, as it turns out it was not a good idea. It must have been fun for the internet search engines yesterday to suddenly see people from all over the world asking if they could eat raw rat meat. Though is technically is possible to eat raw rat meat without dying, it is not always the best idea.
By choosing to consume raw rat meat you became infected with Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome. In North America the fatality rate from HPS is rather high, and in this case, it was even higher. All teams that chose to eat the rat raw have been infected and have perished.
Honestly, that was the outcome that I chose before the round began, and it was very difficult for me to watch team after team kill the rat and eat it raw. In the future, I will need to make sure to allow the teams to at least interact for a few rounds first before giving them the opportunity to die. I lost some really good teams that round, so maybe we will speed up the gameplay to get to Season 3 more quickly, so everyone can join back in for a few rounds (at least). Live and learn, I was sad to watch these teams go, but such is survival.

OPTION 3 – Try to follow the rat to find its food supply or hidden stash.
The teams who chose Option 3 began to slowly watch and follow the rat. They were not willing to risk drawing attention by cooking the rat and they did not want to risk disease by eating it raw. Out of the food options, this was the safest option. However, without the rat being dead, it was the least likely to provide a meal.
Trying not to spook the rat, the teams followed at a distance. Eventually, it just disappeared into a crack in the wall, and was never seen again. These teams will live to survive another day, but they are still hungry and will have to eat by the end of Day 2 (gameplay) in order to stay alive.

OPTION 4 – Forget about the rat and move on.
The teams that chose not to kill or try to follow the rat also survived, but they too are hungry. They too will need to eat prior to the end of Day 2 (gameplay) in order to survive.

DAY 1 ROUND 2
I’M THIRSTY
Much like last season, the gameplay will focus on survival and food. Since we know that water is actually a necessity in real life, periodically I’ll insert rounds where the teams must succeed in drinking uncontaminated water in order to survive. This is one of those rounds.
In order to flee the city tomorrow, you team needs to drink something today. As you search the building for possible water supplies, you wind up in the bathroom. Like so many other bathrooms in the city, this one backed up with sewage when the power went out. Nothing comes out of the faucet now either, and the dried sewage stains the sink a dirty brown. Suddenly, your team has a thought.
You take off the back of the toilet. The toilet itself is horrible, but inside the back of it, it doesn’t look so bad. Could your team safely drink this water in the back of the toilet? As you contemplate this, you happen to glimpse out of the window. There below you in the yard is a puddle, and it happens to be wet.
This is another option. If the water in the puddle safe to drink? Does it have any toxic chemicals or deadly bacteria in it? That is the question. Whichever option you choose, your team will have to drink the water as is. There will be no time for boiling or trying other means of improving the water quality.
TEAM RESPONSIBILITY
Each team must respond in the next 24 hours with you next choice.
OPTION 1 – Drink the water in the back of the toilet.
OPTION 2 – Drink the water outside in the puddle.
PRIZE POOL
The current prize pool is 125 STEEM.
Until next time…
