OPTION 4 – LEAVE WITHOUT EVEN TRYING TO DRINK. I tried to make things clear in the last round by using sentences like these:

periodically a water round will come up. In these rounds, players need to successfully drink the water in order to continue gameplay. If players choose not to drink or drink contaminated water, they will perish

Still, some players chose option 4 and have perished due to a lack of hydration.
