You have the only button, and if you push it all other posters die.

At the end of 3 minutes everyone is released regardless and gets a bucket of ice cream to share.

Do we know these rules going in? Because if so, that's not a dilemma.

Me too. I'm lactose intolerant pretty bad.

Can the other PotDers eat my share of the ice cream?
