Hi Everyone,

Even_Odd_thumbnail.gif

Welcome to the ‘Even to Win’ Game.


How to play?


The ‘Even to Win’ Game requires participants to select a certain number of boxes (e.g. 6 out of 11 boxes). Each box has been assigned a value. The participant obtains that value if an even number of participants have selected that box. If only one participant selects the box, it does not award that value. If two participants select it, it offers the value stated in the question. If three participants select the box, it does not award that value. Some boxes have limits to the number of participants that can select them. For example, a box might have a limit of three participants. Once the third participant has selected the box, new participants can no longer select that box. They are limited to the boxes that have not yet reached their limit.

All the information you need to know to play the game is provided in the question; i.e. no external research is required.

All entries must be made in the comments section of this post.

Each account is only permitted one entry.

Objectives of the game


The objective of the game is to obtain the highest total value from the boxes selected. If two participants obtain the same total value, the participant who entered first wins.

If nobody obtains a positive value, the prize of 30 Hive Power will be rolled over to the next contest.

Game assumptions


  • Each box is assigned a value. This value only contributes to a participant's overall score if an even number of participants select that box.
  • Some boxes have participant limits, once the limits have been reached, no other participant can select that box.
  • The participant's order of selection of boxes does not make a difference to the value allocated to the box or the value awarded to the participants selecting that box.

How are the results of the game determined?


The results are determined based on the combined values of the boxes each participant has selected. No results or values need to be generated by any model.

Contest Prizes


The account with the winning entry will receive 30 Hive Power and the first 12 entries will be given upvotes.
