The Integrity Read
The score that outlives the round
The integrity read is not about being right fast - it is about keeping the argument open for the whole run. A coat is tempting because it ends the discomfort, and under the timer that temptation is loudest. The game scores whether you can keep reaching for the open, specific one even when the warm close is right there.
The Two Layers
- Read - did you pick the actual truth, or a coat.
- Streak - did you keep the open one without one comfortable close breaking it.
The Line You Take Home
At the end the game hands you one of two sentences. If the run was clean: "I held the argument open." If not: "The coat won a few rounds." Either way it is the honest version - the one you would actually say out loud.
