I don't like to think of it as mass murder, or serial killing. Because I'm not the one doing the killing. I'm only enforcing it. I can't make them kill each other, nor can I make them train, but if they don't my team will take them out faster. They have a chance to live as long as they kill off everyone else first. But the cycle never ends. When one dies another takes their place. Weapons are provided and food and water are given most days . But I'd be lying if I said that no ones ever resorted to cannibalism or died of starvation. I'm no monster either. Their families know they're gone, they just think it was suicide with the bodies never to be found. I give them a proper funeral. But they don't have to die. They survive if they hunt, if not they die. This is simple, this is life or death. THIS IS NOT A GAME.
