[LGT] Game 7: Abundance and Famine [Game Over]

[Artier]

The game of Bid Poker is followed by some much needed rest. You feel much more tired than you though possible, having played two games without break. You also find yourself once again thinking about the eliminated players. What has happened to them? What fate awaits you, if you lose? You feel that you cannot afford to find out.

The next day, you are taken to a new room; a lounge with quite comfortable armchairs, a long table laden with finger food, and a small curtained off area. Once all the players have taken some snacks, a screen turns on, and the mask of Artier appears once again.

"Hello again, ladies and gentlemen. I hope you have had enough time to rest, so we may now begin our next game: Abundance and Famine. These are the names of two villages, which produce a certain amount of food, every month. Your task is to go to these villages and collect as much food as you can. Good luck."

Description.

In this game, your goal is to collect as many units of food as you can. The food will be produced in the villages of Abundance and Famine. Your task is to choose the best village to go to, each month, for half a year, so as to collect the most food.

Rules.

- The game will consist of 6 rounds, each lasting 48 hours.
- At the start of each round, the amount of food available at each village will be made public.
- During each round, each player will send me a PM with the village they wish to go to. If a player does not pick a village, one will be selected for them, randomly and uniformly.
- After all players have picked a destination, the food in each village will be distributed equally amongst the players who picked that village. The divided amounts will then be rounded down, to the next highest integer.
- At the end of each round, each player will receive $10,000 * (X²), where X is the amount of food they received for that round.
- At the end of six rounds, each player will also receive an additional $20,000 for each unit of food they received during the game.
- Afterwards, the player who has collected the least amount of food will be eliminated. The amount in their account will be recorded as their score, and if positive, will be divided amongst the remaining players. In the case of a tie, the player with the least money in their account will be eliminated.
- Private communication is allowed at all times.

You will now have 24 hours to familiarise yourselves with the rules. (expired on 2014-12-17 09:18:40)

The total food available for this game cam to 69 units. The maximum amount obtainable, based on the rules, was 59 units. You managed to collect a total of 49 units. Congratulations.

As stated in the rules, each player received $10,000 * (X^2) per round, where X is the amount of food they collected that round. In addition, each player gets another $20,000 for each unit of food they have at the end.

Of the players who got 3 units of food, Cheery Dog has the least money in his account. As such, he is eliminated. His score is 988,696. This will be divided amongst the remaining players, who thus receive $110,000.

The next game will be announced early in the new year.

[Cheery Dog]

Of course I manage to share lowest and then they happened to be with one of the two players that had more money than me.

Oh well at least i don't have to worry about dealing with Frogstar stuff anymore.
