Hard to say for sure, but it seems unlikely given that a lot of people were following the guide without diamonds and I don't think any of them have reported everyone surviving so far. Obviously @MillyLiber used a small amount of diamonds and everyone survived (because Parker is definitely not dead in that playthrough, although we're not really sure what happened to him, probably he cowered away somewhere), so it's a very minimal number of diamonds. Once the book is over I'll try my own playthrough (although I can't get maximum points since my MC sacrificed herself in the previous book, but she was the only one who died, so I can get close). Obviously, nothing says I will succeed where others failed, but I am curious, so I'll be trying.
