Maybe I can't have normal youth

Chapter 17 The Game of the Reasoning Society

"Okay! Let's first warm up with a little game!"

"The rules of the game are as follows:

All students will be issued a fan-like sign with "Yes" or "No" written on both sides of the sign.

There are up to five rounds in the game. In each round, the president will give a judgment sentence, and then you have ten minutes to discuss with your classmates or think calmly.After ten minutes are over, everyone needs to hold up a sign and give your answer to this true or false question.

In each round, two members will count the number of "yes" and "no" at the same time, and the judges with a smaller number will advance to the next round.

There are at most five rounds of the game, and each round of survival can earn one point. If there are only two people left on the field in the first few rounds, that is, when the minority cannot be selected, the game ends and both of them win .If many students survive after five rounds, all the survivors win.

In order to ensure the accuracy of the statistical results, the judgment shall not be changed midway.

Hello, isn't this a minority decision?I am very familiar with such rules.

"The above are the rules of the first mini game, any questions?"

"What if the number of "yes" and "no" is the same?" The magician raised his hand to ask, it seems that he is really serious about studying the rules.

"Ah, this is a very good question! If the number of "Yes" and "No" is the same, all survivors will be promoted at the same time. However, there are 25 students in total who came to the event today, so they will not appear in the first round. Such a situation."

"If everyone gives the same answer, will they be promoted at the same time?" The magician asked.

"Yes, that's right."

"OK, then I have no problem."

"Okay! If everyone has no doubts, then I will give the first question!"

"Question: Are you a male?

Well.

This is really a... a simple and straightforward true or false question.

A ten-minute countdown appeared on the screen, and the magician classmate began to write and draw in the notebook. It is better not to disturb him for the time being.

Everyone discusses with the students around, whether they know or don't know, this kind of club activities can always promote communication well.The place in the event venue was not full. I walked to the top of the first row and sat down, where I could see everyone's movements, and it would not make others think I was strange.

This is a very simple and clear question, and basically everyone is discussing it in full swing.However, it is only a very short period of time to maintain the question of whether it is a man or not. After about two or three minutes at the longest, basically all topics begin to show various deviations.

"Student Magician, what do you think?" After another few minutes of observation, I returned to my original seat. I saw that the Magician's writing and scribbling on the notebook were almost the same.

"Ah, I think the reasoning club may plan to come to participate a little bit more."

"Huh?" The donkey's lips did not answer the horse's mouth.

"You know this is a minority game, right?"

"Yes indeed."

"Then the key to winning this game is to form a team. Of course, it's not that the more people the better, but to stay in a team with a small number of people."

"Of course." I nodded.

"So I just calculated. If you don’t take the test, everyone chooses the same situation. According to the most coincidental situation, there are 25 people left after the first round, and 12 people are left in the second round because it is an even number. At the same time advance to the fifth round, or after the second round, you will become 5 people, and the third round will become 2 people.” The magician student showed his notes to me, “So at most three rounds can solve the problem. They have prepared five rounds, maybe at first they imagined more than forty people would come.

I looked at the number of vacant chairs, and it was true. "But this is not the point. I always feel that you have found the wrong point. Although I think you are completely correct in inference, this is because everyone can fully understand the rules. in the case of."

"Yep?"

I glanced at the big TV screen, "Teaming is indeed a correct way to win, but now we only have less than three minutes."

The numbers on the screen are decreasing every minute and every second. "Besides, we only have ten minutes at the beginning. If you want to form a team, you need to be in contact with enough people. Ten minutes is not enough."

"At the same time, for these people you are not familiar with, you can't trust them at all. Even the friends you know have a very high chance of turning over. So, it's definitely not a team!"

"Ah, you make sense, classmate Bai An." The magician closed the notebook, frowning slightly.

"Hey, you really want to win! Take it easy, this is just a club activity."

"Ah yes, I am participating in the event very relaxed, but the feeling of winning is really good, and I also like the process of working hard for it."

"That's it~ Then let me tell you my opinion." After all, I just watched for a few minutes and it was not for nothing. "First of all, the students who came here to participate in the activities came to play."

This is for sure, I feel like saying a nonsense, everyone participates in club activities with an entertaining mentality.But I still feel it is necessary to remind the magician classmate of this.

"In fact, there are not many people who care about this score." After all, many people even talked about this topic for 30 seconds before starting to go elsewhere. "At the same time, I have reason to believe that, although Everyone is here to participate in the activities of the reasoning club, but not many people really understand and like various reasoning."

Just like I don't know how to skate but also go to the activities of skate clubs, many people come here with the mentality of taking a look.

"So, there are many people here who are novices. If you ask them directly without explaining, they must not even know what the few decisions are. So..." I smiled at the magician classmate and motioned him to look. The status and expression of the participants, "Most people actually just accepted the rules instead of understanding the rules."

"What we have to do is not to form a team, but to judge what others will do." After I said this, the time on the screen turned to beating red.

"Okay~ Then we only have 20 seconds left. I hope everyone has their own answers and raise the card when the time returns to zero." The time was reduced by several seconds when the president spoke.

"Magic, out of 25, there are 18 boys and 7 girls. Do you understand what I mean? Thinking too much is invalid in the first round." I quickly told the magician students all the information. .

"5, 4, 3, 2, 1——"

The two big words "raising a card" appeared on the screen, and we gave our own answers in an instant.

"Good~ There are 18 people who answered "Yes" and 7 people who answered "No"." The president gave the statistics.

This result...

I quickly turned my head and looked at the answer board next to me. As expected, the magician's answer was "No" just like me.I almost thought everyone was so honest just now.If so, I might really be scared.

It seems that he completely understood what I meant at the end: most of the people who came to participate in the event were Xiaobai, so most people would not think about this rule carefully, but would answer this question truthfully.Except for some "old players" including me and the magician, the gap between men and women in this event is too big to be balanced.So, it becomes obvious who is in the minority.

"Eh~ Can you lie? So boys can deny that they are male!" Did the Xiaobai exclaim when they saw the different options of the people around them?

As expected, the first round is the most suitable for cutting leeks.

"Then those who are eliminated, please hand in the sign. There are 4 girls and 3 boys left, and the second round will start~"

4 girls and 3 boys?There are fewer people than I thought, and it just happened to be the number of all girls.In other words, besides me and my classmate Magician, there are at least five people who fully understand the rules, but the three girls who were eliminated may think too much and choose the wrong camp.

Next is the start of the real minority game. All participants fully understand that the judgment sentence in each round is actually just a judgment sentence, and has nothing to do with any existing facts.
