you need to minimise the casualty rate though

you cant have 999 dead trolls/ banned users at a party can you ?

FTFY.

But in any case, only one bottle is poisoned.

If you are Dennis Neilson then its nice.

Nope because the poison doesn't act immediately. So your first tester may be through 100 bottles before they keel over.

I conceed that next time I will have to be clearer about this fact. i.e the poison takes 6hrs or so to act.

You can still do it in one go without 999 testers.

ah. it has to be done in one round.

ok

Exactly. We need more details. Do you know how much Asperger's syndrome is swilling around this forum?

You were told it was the day before the party and that the poison didn't act immediately.

How long were you planning to wait before testing the 2nd bottle.

It could have acted after 10 seconds. The party starts when MF dies.
