The Traitors

[WanderingProtagonist]

I've recently submitted an application to join a TV show known as The Traitors? Has anyone seen it? Basically it's a game of detective work and deception. Players are either part of the unknowing majority and must weed out all the traitors amongst them before the game ends. The Traitors secretly murder a contestant every night and these are part of the knowing minority.

There's about 22 contestants and 3 or 4 traitors among them. If any traitors are remaining by the end of the game they take the entire prize fund of up to 100k. If the other team get rid of all the traitors then they share the prize fund.

What team would you rather be on and what would your strategy be to win?

At first I thought this was about real life traitors. I was ready to engage, but no I don't know anything about a tv show called traitors..

Basically it's a game of detective work and deception. Players are either part of the unknowing majority and must weed out all the traitors amongst them before the game ends.

So basically it's just a game that summarizes Western society in general?

It's this kind of cynical and suspicious thinking pattern that the Western society loves to breed into people.

Suspicion leads to hate.
Hate leads to conflict.
Conflict leads to destruction.

On the contrary, Vietnamese would make a show where the goal of the game is to cooperate with each other and live in harmony.

A game show where people cooperate with each other? Where would be the fun in that?

Given the state that the world is in right now, it would make me very happy to see a show where people are happy and help each other and live together in harmony. That's the idyllic life I'm trying to build out here in Vietnam right now. There's so many dark memories in my past that I just want to live the rest of my life smiling with others and helping others now.
