This Game is the Worst-Case Scenario [Q.166]

[Mitillos]

/in, please.

[Mitillos]

I kinda want to call bullshit on mine. A heart attack can show the following symptoms: sweating and anxiety from A, left arm pain and tingling in the extremities from B, chest pains and nausea from C. It can even be virtually symptomless, in which case you can't identify it with any of those, at all.

[Mitillos]

Well, they probably thought that it was C, and that everyone would guess B, I suppose. So, sure let's go with non-answer C.

[Mitillos]

Presumably, A.

[Mitillos]

But... none of those choices would *actually* keep your computer secure.

This game looks more like "Guess what people who know nothing about this subject think they know".

*sigh* I guess let's go with B. A is plain silly, and C would simply tell you what came through that line, after the fact.

[Mitillos]

A is the fastest one.

[Mitillos]

In reality, the only way to check for melanoma is to actually remove some tissue and check for cancer cells. But let's go with C, I suppose.

[Mitillos]

I'm guessing they want B, on this one.

[Mitillos]

A, but if there's no buildings nearby, try B instead, I guess.

[Mitillos]

My question says nothing about the closeness of the fire, the rate at which it's spreading, the amount of foliage in the surrounding area, the presence of civilisation nearby, or indeed absolutely anything that would actually make sense to consider in such a situation.

Anyway, I guess C, because in the other two, you're just sitting there waiting to get burned.

[Mitillos]

B, I believe.

But if you have any fruit, eating it is a good idea, so that sort of counts as A. And if you're in a hopeless situation, where you can't get un-lost, you may as well go with C, and enjoy yourself a bit, before dying.

149. B
150. B
151. B
152. C

154. C

156. B

I may have rolled a die for some of these.

[Mitillos]

sthar8 gets it.

[Mitillos]

I have enjoyed this (particularly the flavour scenarios), but the absence of correct answers happens too often, as does the absence of enough information.

/out

[Mitillos]

I just want to point out that placing oneself in a sealed room and then also bringing in something which eliminates all the oxygen (e.g. fire), is probably not the best idea in the world.

[Mitillos]

No, I know, I just don't want any of you to die of carbon monoxide poisoning.
