Chapter 436 Preparations Before the Game
Three days later, in the morning.

A broadcast notification for a new game appeared on the big screen.

Good morning, players!

The gallery will open in one hour.

The game is titled "Tarot Game," and its objectives are "player selection" and "community competition."

The players in this game will come from 8 different communities, totaling 44 players.

Based on their performance in the previous game, the eight communities will be divided into four "main communities" and four "fringe communities." The rules governing these two types of communities will differ slightly.

The four communities with the most accumulated visa durations will be designated as the "main communities" by default.

Each "main community" can select one community to become a "peripheral community".

The maximum number of players who can participate in the game in the main community is 6.

The maximum number of players who can participate in the game in the "Fringe Community" is 5.

Players who have a 'family relationship' with other players in the new world are required to participate; other slots are open to free registration.

[The only player required to participate in this community is: Zhou Guifen]

The remaining 5 spots for independent participation will be randomly selected from all registered players.

[Community 17 has been selected as the 'Main Community'. Please select a community to become a 'Marginal Community'; otherwise, a community will be randomly selected.]

Without hesitation, everyone replied: "The 5th Community."

[Selection is valid.]

Community 5 will participate in this game as a "fringe community".

[The game is about to begin, please get ready!]

A countdown to the start of the game appeared on the big screen.

Since it's a selection game, there's a default preparation time of one hour, which is quite ample.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; so far, everything was proceeding as planned.

In the past two days, while Wei Yinzhang was designing the game rules, he was also constantly synchronizing information with other players.

The night after the game design invitation was sent out, the arcade had already adopted Lin Sizhi's proposal, so Wei Yinzhang, as a copycat, could also see the relevant rules.

She cannot directly tell these rules to the players in the community.

However, after seeing the rules, Wei Yinzhang felt much more at ease and subtly hinted to the other players: the rules this time are relatively friendly to the 17th community, so there's no need to worry too much.

Afterwards, Wei Yinzhang repeatedly revised some of his rules, trying to eliminate those that might lead to rejection, and was eventually selected.

She, of course, did not reveal the details of these rules.

However, judging from the game invitation at this point, everyone has basically achieved their initial goals.

Lee In-sook looked at everyone: "Now we need to finalize the selection of participants for the game."

"Aunt Zhou is definitely going to be included, and there are 5 more spots available for free participation."

"Lawyer Lin, Brother Wang, Yang Yuting, and Cai Zhiyuan have all expressed their willingness to join the game. That leaves one spot. Are there any other people interested?"

After considering for a moment, Wei Yinzhang said, "I would also like to participate in this game."

This surprised Li Renshu slightly: "Hmm? It would be best if you were willing to participate. This is equivalent to the strongest lineup of our 17th community. However, this is a selection game, and we don't know the exact mortality rate yet. Have you thought it through?" Wei Yinzhang, as a copycat, only knew the rules of the first two modules, but the 'reward and punishment mechanism' was designed by other copycats, so she didn't know it.

If the copycat has designed an extremely high mortality rate, then the game will also be very dangerous.

As a well-known copycat in the community, Wei Yinzhang can continuously obtain visa time through the income from copycat activities, even without participating in any games, and will not be deported due to running out of time.

Therefore, there is still some risk in her actively participating in such a selection game.

Wei Yinzhang nodded and explained, "Of course I know that."

This is what I think:
"First of all, I have reviewed the basic rules of this game and designed the matchmaking rules myself. I am quite confident in these two aspects."

"Even if there are risks, I believe they are relatively controllable."

"Secondly, although I can profit as a copycat even without entering the game, staying hidden in the community is not necessarily a good choice."

"This could lead to a 'lack of combat experience,' and if one is forced into a trial-type or elimination-type game later, they might not be able to adapt to the game's pace."

"Therefore, every now and then, I should choose to enter a game that has a certain amount of pressure but the risks are controllable, in order to maintain my status as a player."

Lee In-sook praised, "That makes a lot of sense."

Just then, Dai Yifan said, "Wait a minute, speaking of the game's rewards... I'd also like to participate in this game."

"Because my visa has the shortest processing time."

Lee In-sook paused for a moment; this was indeed a problem.

After joining the 17th Community, Dai Yifan earned a good amount of money in the first game, "Simple Questions and Answers," but donated a large portion of it.

The subsequent "Choose Your Own Game" yielded mediocre results, and I didn't participate in the "Lift Game."

Currently, all players in the community have donated their excess visa time to the community fund. On the surface, it may seem that the visa time they have is about the same, but in reality, there is a big difference in the "deposit" in the fund.

Dai Yifan didn't have much time for his visa application, so naturally he didn't have much savings.

Although this selection game also carries the risk of death, it is the best type of game besides allocation games.

Furthermore, all the strong members of the 17th community were mobilized, and the community's immunity tickets had already cooled down, all of which ensured the safety of this game to a certain extent.

Cai Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said, "I don't think it's necessary to include all the core elements of the game. Sometimes having too many ideas can easily lead to fighting."

"Bringing Dai Yifan along would be a four-man-two-man game, which is acceptable. Besides, it would also allow him to practice in the game."

Li Renshu glanced at the five players who had originally been confirmed to enter, and naturally turned her gaze to Yang Yuting.

“Yuting, you just participated in the last ‘lifting game’, so stay in the community this time.”

Yang Yuting nodded: "Okay."

The other players also tacitly accepted this choice.

The reason is very simple: Lin Sizhi, Wang Yongxin, Cai Zhiyuan, and Wei Yinzhang are clearly better choices than Yang Yuting.

Yang Yuting isn't particularly good at allocation and selection games; she's only slightly better than the average player. She just participated in the last game, so there's no reason for her to participate in this one.

Soon, the countdown ends.

[Players participating in this community: Lin Sizhi, Wang Yongxin, Cai Zhiyuan, Wei Yinzhang, Dai Yifan, Zhou Guifen.]

The next second, the six people disappeared from the hall.
