Test Your Friends: Are They Actually GTA 6 Fans?

Everyone says they are a GTA 6 fan. Very few have actually put in the years. There is a difference between someone who watched the trailer once and someone who has been personally emotionally invested in a release date that keeps politely excusing itself.

So test them. Not with a fair quiz, obviously. Fair quizzes let people give the wrong answer.

The only honest way to test a fan is dishonestly

A NoodleStrike quiz looks like a normal yes/no quiz, except one button per question quietly refuses to be clicked. It dodges the cursor, or it ignores the first few taps, or it swaps places with the other button right as they commit.

Which means you get to decide, in advance, that your friend is a true fan. They just have to sit through the ceremony of finding that out.

Questions with exactly one acceptable answer

Here is the sort of thing that belongs in a GTA 6 loyalty exam. In each case the correct answer is the one you rig, and the wrong one goes on a little journey.

• "Have you rewatched the trailer more times than you have called your mother this year?" Yes. There is no version of this where the answer is no.
• "Did you buy a console specifically for this game?" Yes. Follow up: "Did you buy a second console specifically for this game, because the first one got old waiting?" Also yes.
• "Have you ever defended the delays in a group chat, out loud, unprompted?" Yes, and you were right to.
• "Be honest, do you still have the release date in your calendar even though it has moved?" Yes. It has been dragged forward so many times the calendar entry has its own frequent flyer status.
• "If it gets delayed again, will you be normal about it?" No. Obviously no. This is the one question where the honest answer and the rigged answer finally agree.

A brief history of the release date

The release date has been announced, celebrated, mourned, and quietly relocated more times than most people move house. At this point it is less a date and more a general vibe. A season. A feeling. Something that lives in the future tense permanently, like fusion power or your friend who says they will definitely come out this weekend.

The trailer, meanwhile, is old enough to have developed a personality. People have formed relationships, ended them, and formed better ones in the time since it dropped. Somewhere out there is a person who watched that trailer, decided to get in shape for launch day, achieved it, lost it, and achieved it again.

And the beautiful thing is that everyone is still in. That is what makes the fandom worth testing. Nobody has left. They are just tired.

Build the exam

Write five questions, rig every button, pick a character to deliver the verdict, and send the link to the groupchat member whose fandom you find suspicious. They will click through it, agree with everything, and receive a shareable card confirming their loyalty on the record.

One warning: they will try to click the other button. Everyone tries. That is the fun part.
