In the next second, Yang Yuting realized she was back in the community hall.
She could no longer hold on and felt utterly drained, collapsing to the ground.
Xu Tong quickly helped her to a nearby sofa to sit down.
Zheng Jie had already prepared the medical kit and immediately began dressing Yang Yuting's two wounds.
The final results of this game also appeared on the big screen.
[Now announcing Community 17's final visa time gains in the 'Fertility Judgment'.]
[Number 2 Jiang He: Deported]
[Number 11 Yang Yuting: 40,000]
[According to community rules, when a player's visa time exceeds 20,000 minutes, 5% will be allocated to the Community Security Fund. The remaining visa time will be credited to each player's visa.]
The 5 players participating as spectators in the game had no earnings, so they were not displayed on the settlement list.
This time, no one asked "Where did Jiang He go?" because everyone clearly saw the judgment scene triggered at the end with the 'Barbarian Race invasion'.
However, it's evident that an explanation is still required from Li Renshu regarding 'why the Immunity Coupon wasn't used'.
After all, besides Yang Yuting and the 5 spectators, other players didn't see the previous game process.
Even if they saw the game process, there might still be questions and controversies about Li Renshu's decision.
Li Renshu looked at Xu Tong: "You take Yang Yuting back to her room to rest for a while, and I'll provide a detailed explanation during the afternoon review.
"If after my explanation, everyone still feels the use of the Immunity Coupon was inappropriate, you can vote again to select a new guardian for it."
No one said anything further, they just rested, waiting for the ensuing review.
...
In the afternoon, everyone sat around a long table, and the big screen displayed the rules related to the 'Fertility Judgment'.
As an audience member, Li Renshu was very clear about the game's causes and effects, having known the audience-side rules early on, so she was responsible for reviewing all game stages.
And in light of all the now-clear information, the most important hidden mechanism in the game naturally emerged.
['Fertility Torture Device' initial probability for producing 'Male Badge' and 'Female Badge' is: '99%'.]
[When Judicial Council members return to the initial site again, the probability that the 'Fertility Torture Device' produces 'Male Badge' and 'Female Badge' will be adjusted according to the 'consistency voting' results.]
[When male offenders face harsher penalties: Mechanism 1's production probability decreases.]
[When female offenders face harsher penalties: Mechanism 2's production probability decreases.]
[Each '×' appearing in 'consistency voting' reduces the production probability by '1.5%'.]
Such a hidden mechanism left Yang Yuting quite shocked.
"So how many '×' were there in total at the end?"
Li Renshu thought for a moment: "The first time 10, the second time 6, the third time 10. In total 26, meaning the probability of Mechanism 1 producing 'Male Badge' decreased by about 39%."
Upon hearing this result, Yang Yuting fell into complete silence.
Originally, she was thinking that they just needed two more male badges and wondered if it was due to bad luck.
But now it seemed, it was normal probability.
When the success rate of Mechanism 1 had already dropped to just 60%, they initially used 7 attempts to manufacture 4 'Male Badges', aligning perfectly with probability.
Counting the last two, 9 attempts to produce 5 male badges, although slightly lower than expected, wasn't a substantial deviation.
No matter how you calculate, these Fertility Funds still weren't enough to produce 10 Fertility Badges.
Zheng Jie sighed: "Another hidden mechanism, huh..."
Cai Zhiyuan nodded: "Yes, another hidden mechanism, although this one wasn't deeply buried, and its metaphorical meaning is quite strong, it should normally be deducible.
"From the beginning, the rules stated that the badge production by the Fertility Torture Device had a probability, and this probability relates to 'fertility intention' of males and females.
"The game is called 'Fertility Judgment', where the questions are all related to fertility, but why is the main gameplay showcased in the form of 'legal trials'?
"Because these cases relate to marriage, fertility, and gender, and their verdicts directly impact 'fertility intention'.
"From the game's mechanism, neither overly harsh nor overly lenient trial standards pose significant issues.
"Only when there's a substantial difference in trial consistency based on gender can it severely reduce one side's fertility intention.
"This also parallels real-life scenarios:
"Even in a draconian feudal society, which might have some wrongful killings, it doesn't significantly affect the public's fertility intention.
"Only when 'consistency' issues arise can there be a cliff-like drop in one side's fertility intention.
"In the game's inner mechanism, if reversed, if a male player serves as Chief Judge and excessively favors male offenders, Mechanism 2's success rate will similarly drop sharply, making the game hard to clear."
Yang Yuting was somewhat annoyed: "In hindsight, there is a certain rationality, but without understanding hidden mechanisms, it's indeed difficult to think of this connection."
Xu Tong was a bit curious: "In that case, this game is quite different from the 'King's Judgment'.
"In 'King's Judgment', the King can unfairly favor his own and pass the game.
"But in 'Fertility Judgment', there's only one way to win: 'ensure consistency doesn't drop too low'.
Cai Zhiyuan was silent for a moment: "Not necessarily.
"This game has a way to pass without considering 'consistency', it just adopts a completely different approach from 'King's Judgment'."
Yang Yuting was taken aback, looking at Lin Sizhi: "Really? Is there?"
Lin Sizhi nodded: "Yes."
Evidently, for a player like Lin Sizhi, even without seeing specific rules, he probably became aware during the game.
Cai Zhiyuan pointed towards an inconspicuous spot at the bottom of the game rules, where there were some supplementary clauses in small print.
"The fertility mechanism in the first Judgement Room has a usage limit of 3 times per machine; the second Judgement Room's has a usage limit of 2 times per machine, and the third Judgement Room's has a usage limit of 1 time per machine."
Yang Yuting was stunned.
She always thought that during the game, they'd wasted just one chance with the mechanism, specifically using the mechanism 1 less in the first Judgement Room.
But now it seems, they actually missed 8 times.
Strictly speaking, this rule is also a verbal trap.
[Only the initial site's Fertility Torture Device has no usage limitation.]
In other words, each Judgement Room's Fertility Torture Device is limited in the number of uses, this is true, but the rules never stated it's limited to just one time.
This Imitator's cunning lies in deliberately placing multiple mechanisms in the Judgement Rooms, and the number of mechanisms gradually decreases.
The first Judgement Room has 2 of mechanism 1 and 2 of mechanism 2, totaling 4.
The second Judgement Room has 1 of mechanism 1 and 2 of mechanism 2, totaling 3.
The third Judgement Room has 1 of mechanism 1 and 1 of mechanism 2, totaling 2.
This arrangement of 'multiple and gradually decreasing' led players to subconsciously believe each mechanism could only be used once.
But in fact, if they tried each mechanism a few more times, they'd discover they can be used more than once.
