Molish Dilemma

This test plays off the famous diner's dilemma puzzle. The puzzle states that if you go to a restaurant with a group of people and agree to split the check evenly beforehand, what do you order? Are you willing to order the most expensive item on the menu, knowing that the price will be shared amongst all the dinner guests? But if everyone orders the most expensive item, you each end up splitting the huge bill. If you order an less expensive item, but everyone else orders expensive items, you end up paying more because of their choices.

For this test, your options are money or exemption.

There will be up to 3 rounds of play. If, in any round, everybody chooses money, $45,000 will be added to the pot. If, in any round, everybody chooses exemption, no money will be added to the pot. If, in any round, only 1 person chooses exemption and everybody else chooses money, $30,000 will be added to the pot and the player who chose exemption will earn exemption. If, in any round, 1 person chooses money and everyone else chooses exemption, $15,000 will be added to the pot and nobody will earn exemption. If any other combination happens (2 choose money and 2 choose exemption), $10,000 will be deducted from the pot. The first round that adds money to the pot will end the test.

You need to PM me your choice for each round. Each round will last 1 hour. If not everyone PMs me, the rules still apply. So if only one person sends a PM and they choose money, then it would count as nobody choosing exemption and $45000 would go into the pot.

Jack chose money and nobody else sent in, so $45000 is added to the group pot.


Quiz will be up on Friday.
