¿Question #2658?
puffinge: If you and 5 other people were captured and told that exactly 1 of you would die today and the others would be let go, would you volunteer to die?

Woelf: I'd probably let someone else volunteer first, then play the odds.
Narlgoth: Depends on the people. If the people included Justin Beiber, Brentoon and Anita Sarkesian I'd ask if I volunteer would they did also.
SebasKO: If they are good people, yes, i'd totally do. But if you stuck me in the same room with most of the political leader of the world today, go ahead, shoot them! :P
Jatoha: If it were my family, of course.
Caerid: No
pakruse: I'm a coward, so while I'd like to think that I would, I probably would not.
Felimid: Depends on who the other 4 people were. If they included my best female friend and her daughter, then yes, I would volunteer to die.
Spirit of 70: Yes.
GrimJester: Depends on who the other people are, but most likely not.
rseater: it depends on who the other people are
MusicToEat: Depends who the other five people were.
Ceryon: no
gmcash: yes
Koury: no
Brain: depends on the people
Mad Wet Squirrel: Only if it increased my chances of survival.
DHEK: Most likely no. Especially if they're strangers.
aleo09: nah
kimba: depends on the people - my family - yes - other possibly - a group of murderers - no.
Leo-T: depends on who the other 5 are (there are some I'd probably recommend)
scriptorum: I don't negotiate with terrorists. Instead, I organize an uprising and we uh ... take out ... the kidnappers. Right. We take em out.
POvidiusNaso: Probably not.
tdyck: I would consider it, but not if one of the other people was 110 and was on their deathbed anyway
dietevil: Depends how much I liked the other four people
Greedo: Depends. Would I die by being smothered by huge boobies?
purvisa: Not without more information about the source of that information.
dougpartridge: Yes. Unless the other people were idiots.
petepat: dont know
chitshappen: No, I would use my space ray and knock out the captors and then tie them up with Fruit by the Foot and put everyone on my Hovercraft and roll on, roll on, roll on...
brainrob: That's a tough question now I'm a dad ... it would depend upon who the other 4 were.
Dreadmouse: I'd probably organize a "rock-paper-scissors" tourney. If I'm going down, I may as well go down losing a game.
Dorque: Nope.
vampywife: yes
kevinwho: Hmm, yeah, I might. Depends on how I was feeling that day, who the other people were, and the manner of the proposed death.
BeatPosse: Hell no
Loquutus: Sure not. I'd use my 18 charisma points to convince someone else to volunteer.
bigbadsteve: no
LemonyFresh: Why should we believe them?
confuse_a_cat: I'd like to say yes, but then again, I haven't been in one of those situations.
JoeSteadman: nope
Odat: If one of the 5 was my wife, I would.
hibikir: Probably not, they'd have to be the right 4 people.
Dr. No: depends on the 5 other
The 17th Ogre: Depends who was with me, of course. I'm pretty selfless (ego stroke) but I'm not going to die for someone I despise or deserves it.
louiseh: I might. Mood dependent
Gecko23: Depends on who the other people were.
ValJor: No, I'm too young for that
Belash: no
dakarp: It would honestly depend on who the other 5 were. For example, if they were all children, and I could be reasonably sure that my captors would keep their promise, I'd like to think I would.
Flodjo: Depends on the other 4
jellyfish: Nobody would, everybody becomes a remarkable good coward in those situations.
MisterCranky: It depends on how quickly I could snap the neck of the person standing closest to me.
The Unbeliever: 42
Ebon Wendigo: Yes
Wernazuma: Depends very much of the other 5. If it were children or my g/f for instance, undoubtedly.
davedanger: after you
darthcliff: Depends on who the other five people were
djlg: Depends who the other 5 are.
shumyum: I'll drown on Tuesday.
skrutsch: Probably.
BaSL: would you be one of the 5?
2amp: yes
Cavedog_pdx: Probably.
mandj2001: depends if the other 4 were strangers or family....really, it matters
rivo: not boardgame related
Fa�l: Depends if the five others are loved, estimated, unknown or hatred.
fnord23: no
puffinge: I might since I don't have kids. It would have to be an easy death though I think.
Lord_Prussian: Maybe
snoozefest: probably not
Jocab: No.
jttm: Uhhh... no
Randy Cox: In Scruples, we'd all be playing the "Depends" card. And it does. Say it's a bunch of gaming acquaintance, y'all are on your own. If it's my immediate family, I'll jump up (after exhausing all possibilities of a reasonable solution where no one dies).
skelebone: Depends on who I was captured with. If I hated them, I'd take my chances.
CortexBomb: Depends on who the other people were :-)
Dave: Not if you were one of the 5.
CDRodeffer: Probably not.
chaddyboy_2000: Sure.
