The group sits in a circle and brings up various "hell realms": social experiences which were meaningless, performative, empty, or otherwise not a good time. (If you need ideas, think about bad dates, bad family dinners, bad work meetings, etc.)
The person who presents the hell realm (the "presenter") should be able to say, roughly, which values were suppressed.
Then...
Step 1. Gather Details
Pretext. Is communication expected to be around a shared goal
? Shared topic
? Shared values
? Or do participants have different goals
and seek exchanges? Or is there no set pretext
at all?
Feedback. How do people respond to speech? Do the they like / clap / cheer / review
? Do they friend / follow / join
? Do they thank
? Comment
? Request/buy
?
Pace and Polish. Is the rate of communication fast
or slow
? Are things slowly crafted
? Contemplated
? Or quickly tossed back and forth
?
Selection. Are some players recognized as invited by a trustworthy person? invited
random
Status. Are some participants celebrities
? Are they ranked
somehow? Or is everyone presented as equal
?
Step 2. Suggest "Salvages"
The other players try to come up with ways to change the design parameters that would have made the situation better.
The idea is to suggest a minimal change in the setup of the story, a change that's small, hopefully feasible or almost feasible, and that takes the presenter out of the hell realm and allows them to live by their value.
Who can think of a way to change these things, that would have made a difference in whether the presenter could live by their value?

Step 3. Reflection
If you succeed, do some reflecting: why do you think the presenter needed this kind of setting or timing to live by their value?
Check your theory with them.
