WIFOM is the dilemma that arises from trying to predict whether someone has made an optimal but expected choice, or a suboptimal but unexpected one. The term WIFOM (short for Wine In Front Of Me) is named for this scene in the 1987 movie The Princess Bride: Westley: “All right: where is the poison?”
- Every round starts with every living player having a cup of wine in front of them. One of the wines is poisoned.
- One randomly selected living player per round will know where the poison is
- A turn order is randomly generated per round.
- In order, each player can choose to KEEP their cup, or SWAP cups with another player of their choice.
- To keep : /vote Keep, To swap : /vote [player]
- After everyone takes their turn - if the last player to act swapped their drink, the player who they swapped with gets to take an additional turn and choose to Keep or Swap.
- Everyone drinks and the poisoned player dies.
- On the last round when it becomes 1v1, the player who does not know the location of the poison automatically goes last.
- Last person standing wins.
- Players can talk whenever they want in the topic about whatever they want.

It’s more Russian roulette in forum form it sounds like.
Might host it anyway, probably won’t call it the Princess Bride FM, that can be something separate.
