Yeah, if you don't submit you die.

Round of 23 Results

All 23 submissions are in! But who will be the first one gone?

Well, let's start with McMenno's breaking strategy.
McMenno - 1000 coins

Apparently, it's a breaking strategy to get 22nd place. We'll deal with that later.

Aside from those who are suicidal, who submitted the most?
Ircher - 85 coins
vonflare - 81 coins
D3f3nd3r - 62 coins
Lady Lambdadelta - 61 coins
Iprobablysuck - 55 coins
Faalcon - 51 coins


17 left, and everyone remaining submitted less than 50.
StaplerTowel - 45 coins
Haschel Cedricson - 44 coins
animorpherv1 - 40 coins


14 submitted less than 40...
Rhinox - 37 coins
Harkonnen97 - 35 coins
Cheery Dog - 34 coins
Radja - 33 coins
randomidget, StrangerCoug, and Tatsuya Kaname - 30 coins

That's the only tie in this round's results, and that brings us to six left.
Aronis, DarkLightA, Mina, Aronis, Xalxe, and xofelf. One of these players will be the first one eliminated from Coin Game.

...

DarkLightA - 26 coins
Realeo - 24 coins
Aronis - 22 coins


Spoiler: Final Three
Xalxe - 17 coins
xofelf - 15 coins

Mina - 12 coins


Mina, you submitted the lowest, and as a result you have been eliminated. Thankyou for playing.
Congratulations, xofelf, you get to keep your 15 coins!

Round of 22 Results

Thanks to McMenno earlier, the result of this round should be obvious. Let's deal with it now~

McMenno - 0 coins

Everyone else - 1 coin

Due to the way coins are split and rounded down, no one gets their coin refunded. Still, welcome to the Final Twenty-One!

975 - Realeo

You should also note (in case you haven't played before) that the second round goes significantly lower than the first.

Goddammit. I was sure multiple people were going to lowball it with so many contestants. Everyone is going to run out before twenty-three rounds are up.

and especially given that later rounds have higher probability of coin refunding, it's actually a bit higher on average, and pays to play a little more conservatively early.

Quiet with your math and reason. :( My strategy would have been amazing if other people had also followed it!

(This was my first time playing, so I thought when there were so many people, some of whom would be trolls, bidding low was safer now than in rounds with higher odds of being eliminated.)

I am scratching my head why they go so big? Is this another internal joke?
