When female players receive a 'Like', they gain more resources to make accusations; when male players receive a 'Like', it enhances their ability to protect themselves to a certain extent.
Therefore, male players give 'Interesting' to other male players, and female players give 'Interesting' to other female players, without any need to care about what they actually performed during the talent show.
If it were just this, it wouldn't be too bad.
The key is, as time goes on, will a situation arise where male players mindlessly give 'Boring' to female players, and female players also mindlessly give 'Boring' to male players?
Although there were 20 male and 20 female players, with only 18 female players currently remaining, once this trend of giving 'Boring' stabilizes, what if someone defects?
For example, if a male player with a lot of remaining visa time appears in the talent show, and on top of the guaranteed 18 'Boring' votes from female players, he only needs to receive an additional 2 votes from male players to be instantly killed.
And those players could then split 1/10 of his remaining visa time.
At the beginning of the game, this possibility is relatively small, but as the game progresses and players get closer to leaving, their behavior will inevitably become less restrained.
As long as a group of reckless players who vote 'Boring' without a care emerges, the talent show will also turn into an indiscriminate slaughter.
Zheng Jie felt as if he were trapped in a huge, inescapable vortex. Death was approaching him step by step, yet he was helpless.
Just then, a new broadcast appeared on the big screen.
[Community 17's Lin Sizhi broadcasts two pieces of data to all players.]
[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of 'Likes' Gao Jialiang from Community 1 received through meetings, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings, is: '54%'.]
[The percentage of players whose above data has been queried is: '5%'.]
"Huh? Lawyer Lin finally made a broadcast! And two of them!
"But... what does this mean?"
Zheng Jie, who had just been accused, couldn't completely calm down yet, but for the sake of survival, he had to force himself to be composed and focus on figuring out the deeper meaning behind Lin Sizhi's broadcast.
"Except for the first one being free, every subsequent broadcast means consuming 1 'Like' or 'Dislike'.
"So, Lawyer Lin broadcasting two in a row definitely has a purpose.
"He seems to be checking the percentage of 'Likes' a specific player received through meetings in the first 4 hours, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes'.
"Why check this?
"I don't get it, but 5% of the players have already been checked, which means Lawyer Lin checked two people himself?
"His own number of likes is definitely not enough to check all the players.
"So, he means for us to help him check more, using this exact format!
"But with so many players, who should I start checking?"
Zheng Jie tried hard to recall the players he had met in all his meetings, guessing who might be a bad person and who might be the target Lin Sizhi wanted to find.
But he had no clue.
After a while, another broadcast appeared on the big screen.
[Community 17's Yang Yuting broadcasts one piece of data to all players.]
[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of 'Likes' Lu Xinyi from Community 3 received through meetings, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings, is: '100%'.]
"As expected, Yang Yuting also understood Lawyer Lin's idea and prioritized checking Lu Xinyi.
"Lu Xinyi does seem very suspicious, and her data is so exaggerated, all likes in the first 4 hours? No one disliked her?"
[Community 3's Lu Xinyi broadcasts two pieces of data to all players.]
[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of 'Likes' Lin Sizhi from Community 17 received through meetings, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings, is: '100%'.]
[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of 'Likes' Fang Wencong from Community 1 received through meetings, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings, is: '11%'.]
Zheng Jie was stunned: "Why is Lu Xinyi broadcasting too? Is she trying to clear her own name?
"Lawyer Lin's 100% data doesn't seem human either."
He walked to the data query machine and, after a moment of consideration, decided to check on his enemy first.
After all, for Zheng Jie, Xue Qi, who was suspected of lying and playing the victim to get likes in the talent show and had shamelessly framed him, was at the top of his blacklist.
"I want to query the percentage of 'Likes' Xue Qi from Community 9 received through meetings in the first 4 hours, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings."
[Query complete.]
[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of 'Likes' Xue Qi from Community 9 received through meetings, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings, is: '83%'.]
The different data for each person gave Zheng Jie a bit of a headache; he didn't know what he could possibly glean from it.
Fortunately, the first query and broadcast of data were free.
Zheng Jie decisively pressed the [Broadcast] button.
[Community 17's Zheng Jie broadcasts one piece of data to all players.]
[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of 'Likes' Xue Qi from Community 9 received through meetings, out of the total 'Likes' and 'Dislikes' from meetings, is: '83%'.]
Zheng Jie didn't know if this piece of data of his would be of any help to Lin Sizhi, but regardless, he decided to broadcast it first.
Immediately after, more broadcasts appeared.
[Community 1's Fang Wencong broadcasts one piece of data to all players.]
[In the meeting room, the percentage of male players who agree when a female player proactively suggests splitting the bill is: 100%.]
[Community 1's Qian Li broadcasts one piece of data to all players.]
[At the current time, the percentage of murderers who are male players is: 100%.]
Seeing these two broadcasts, Zheng Jie was stunned.
Community 1 is... having internal strife?
Fang Wencong and Qian Li, as players from the same community, had published two broadcasts with completely opposite motives.
Zheng Jie immediately realized that this was also a very normal phenomenon.
Because players from the same community had no way to communicate, under this game's mechanics, the community's organizational structure had been completely dismantled, and everyone was standing on the side of their respective gender.
Clearly, both of these pieces of information would further damage the mutual trust between male and female players, causing the pace of mutual harm to take a great leap forward.
Fang Wencong had already made two broadcasts so far, and these two broadcasts could be described as a perfect control group.
[In the meeting room, the percentage of female players who agree when a male player proactively suggests splitting the bill is: '7%'.]
[In the meeting room, the percentage of male players who agree when a female player proactively suggests splitting the bill is: '100%'.]
These two vastly different numbers ruthlessly exposed a fact: on the matter of "paying the room fee," male and female players operated on completely different standards.
What was even more terrifying was that in the eyes of male and female players, these two pieces of information could likely have completely different meanings due to their different circumstances.
From the female players' perspective, this game was unfair to begin with. Male players could indiscriminately receive thirty thousand minutes of visa time upon leaving the game, so wasn't it normal and reasonable for them to proactively pay the 200-minute room fee?
But from the male players' perspective, that wasn't the case at all.
Because it was obvious that the difficulty for male and female players to get likes was completely different. Whether in meetings or in the talent show, female players naturally found it easier to get likes.
Male players had to proactively engage in involution, advancing their visa time to give to female players, and once they were deceived, the male players would lose everything.
Since female players were naturally favored in this regard, why should male players be expected to cover the room fees?
What's more, the 30,000 minutes of visa time that males could indiscriminately receive was just an empty promise; you had to get out alive to have it.
Given the death rate in this game, if you died inside, why would you still be thinking about thirty thousand minutes of visa time?
This game had its unfair aspects for both male and female players, but from their respective standpoints, each would feel that they had suffered more injustice.
