So either someone stole an Orange on Tobis team ... or some other stuff is happening. I still think the host is manipulating the score in oder to cause distrust in Tobis team. This is a social experiment.
Or am I mixing up the teams and colors?
Waiting for the plot twist that one teammember of the loosing team will be killed.

The AI God's watching this as a TV show from the machine city need more organic drama and conflict...
Enough Levin rite. :?
Poor Tobi.

Sooo someone slipped an extra apple through at some stage. That or Smile is screwing with them.

I hope the twist doesn't involve the host being the one behind the cheating - I'd rather figure out which player did it.

I'm guessing Three is guilty somehow, to be honest. His devotion to Tobi has led him to screw some of the other players, and aside from Infinite (who presumably has been restricted from trading with Bindy after the warning) it's not clear who would have an incentive.
That said, Green's been rather out of focus...
Really, the big question is why *only* one orange is missing. This will presumably break the tentative compact of goodwill; so whoever did it has to have been very shortsighted (if it was for money)
...Actually, while I'm scattershotting theories, maybe this is deliberate sabotage on the part of the Apples team. They have an interest in sabotaging their "opponents" in a way the Oranges team doesn't, since Levin is basically guaranteed to betray the other Apples people. Creating some sort of infighting could be advantageous.

nobody needs to raise their hand in relation to personal gains until the final trade.
You got the teams right, but your math was off: one round with 3 traded each, followed by nine rounds of trading 15 (for a total of ten rounds), should leave both teams with 138. There isnā€™t an Orange missing; rather, thereā€™s an extra Apple.

138 is divisible by 6, so I'm guessing 138 is the legitimate number. 139 is therefore someone giving team red an extra apple, which team orange wouldn't be able to detect (only team red would).
