6 because you can refuse to pull the trigger. What can they do if you don’t pull the trigger, kill you?

Clearly you kill one of them if you're in seat 6.

This would be a killer(!) practical joke for testing your co-workers integrity at corporation christmas party.

You need 5 people that are in this 'gag' and a victim, drunk as hell of course, who is promised 10 million dollars for entering the game. Everyone else except the victim knows that the gun is fixed and doesn't really have a bullet in it. Volunteers are willing to sit on seats 1-5 and the victim (literally yeah [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) is seated sixth.

Gun doesn't fire on the fifth player and player number 6, the victim, is given the gun for ka-Powwing his brains with a success rate of 100%.

But will he fire the gun gracefully for suicide or flee away or even try to kill one of his co-workers! That's when the party get's juiced up!



Oh wait, for a second thought that doesn't sound such a good idea.

[/ QUOTE ]Paying 6 hobos to play this game (fake of course) would be a very interesting psychological experiment.

I'm getting the same chance of dying no matter where you sit, assuming everyone plays fair.

I hope i'm not being levelled here, but there is an obvious difference in your chances of dying based on position. Russian roulette is played by placing a single bullet in a 6 chambered revolver and randomizing the player being killed by spinning the chamber. If you are the first to go, you have a 1/6 chance of death. If you are last to go, and observed 5 people in front of you successfully pull the trigger without being killed, you obviously have a 100% chance of death.

But if you're in seat 6, you only have to pull the trigger at all 1/6 of the time, for a total of 1/6 chance of death. In seat 1, you have to pull the trigger 100% of the time, but there will only be a bullet in the chamber 1/6 of the time, and so on.

Unless I'm being levelled, in which case congrats.
