There was a thread about this awhile ago.

I think 2-3 years ago I would have gone with 20 chambers, but now I would probably go with 5,000.

Am i missing something? With two people playing RR, it doesnt matter how many chambers there are.

If your talking about one pull of the trigger only, then id accept a fairly low number depending on the cash offered.

I think 1000 sounds about right.

Honestly...standard gun.

1 in 6 for 10 mill.

I'm literally down all i have is a girl and she's better off without me.

What a stupid question.

at first i thought it would be a high number for myself. but now that i think about it i would definitely do it with 6 chambers. for me, i really don't see how it couldn't be the right decision.

Also, i think i am happier than the average joe about life in general.

Heh. I'll take those odds too. I don't even have teh girl. If you could modify the Russian Roulette so that rolling death means simply that you didn't exist (your family won't be traumatized), I'll take 1 in 4.

I'd go as low as 1 in 5; I really hate working for a living.
