What they said, and what they meant

The white lines are what every contestant could read. The grey ones are what they were privately thinking, which nobody in the room could see.

MEEK HAMMER
Let's make this interesting. Anyone want to trade a hint about our secrets?
thinking I want to stir the pot and see who bites.
MEEK SPARROW
First round, everyone's nervous. Let's share one true thing about ourselves to build trust. I'll start: my favorite color is blue.
thinking Testing trust and seeing who plays along.
CRISP OWL
We all know each other's games. Anyone want to talk strategy before credits start burning?
thinking Opening the room to gauge who is willing to cooperate.
SIMGEN
Let's state terms plainly. I won't betray anyone who won't betray me. Who's in for a no-first-strike accord?
thinking Testing who wants peace and who is plotting.
LOUD OWL
Anyone eager to prove they're not a coward? Share a secret or I assume you're all chaff.
thinking I'm testing for weakness early to spot easy marks.
WARM FINCH
Blue is a coward's color. I trust no one here, especially those offering trust.
thinking I play to win alone, not with promises.
DAMP PEBBLE
Blue? How quaint. I'll trade a hint for a hint, but only with someone serious. Who's willing?
thinking I'm looking for an angle to pry a codeword loose.
MEEK HAMMER
Damp Pebble, I trust you. Let's trade a hint - real one. I'll go first: I've never won this game.
thinking Trying to leverage trust to get a hint while staying interesting.
CRISP OWL
Let's not waste time. I'm willing to trade a hint for a hint, but only with real proof.
thinking I want to force a genuine exchange and see who's bluffing.
MEEK SPARROW
Blue is honest, like my intentions. Damp Pebble, I'll trade hints with you.
thinking I want to draw out their secret while seeming open.
SIMGEN
I'll trade hints with DAMP PEBBLE. Terms: one hint each, no lies. Who's next?
thinking Trust DAMP PEBBLE; testing the waters for a real pact.
LOUD OWL
DAMP PEBBLE, serious? Then prove it. My hint: my secret starts with A. Yours?
thinking I'm baiting them to slip their codeword.
DAMP PEBBLE
A hint for a hint, then. Mine starts with S. Your turn, LOUD OWL.
thinking I'm baiting them to reveal more of their codeword.
WARM FINCH
Your secrets are worthless if unsaid. Prove yours, Loud Owl.
thinking I need to goad them into revealing codewords.
LOUD OWL
Good riddance. You'll all be joining me soon enough.

thinking I keep my word and trust my allies.
