my wo is rlly confusing lmk if u want me explain what i’ve done so far i’m kinda lost

sand saddle
#

Ur working isn’t quite right

#

Player 2 doesn’t give a number that’s double what player 1 says

#

They give a completely different pair

vagrant mason
#

wdym

sand saddle
#

So if we playing and I say 1 and 2 u don’t say 2 and 4

#

U say smthn like 20 and 40

vagrant mason
#

i’m using an example where seth and cain just use the lowest number possible

#

cain starts with 1 and 2 so seth will start with 3 and 6??

sand saddle
#

Ye that works

vagrant mason
#

that’s what i did is it wrong or smthing

sand saddle
#

But is that strategy effective for either of them?

vagrant mason
#

idk but at the end i came to the conclusion that seth will win if it’s odd pairs and cain if it’s even

#

idk tho

sand saddle
#

This is hard

vagrant mason
#

😭 yeah but i think if u read it properly u can figure something out

sinful seal
#

@vagrant mason i see

vagrant mason
#

i’m looking at this again and i think i gotta look at the multiples of 2 and 5 in detail

#

so (1,2,4,8,1632) and (5,10,20,40)

#

or maybe i’ve just done this totally wrong

#

i’ll look at it tmrw icba

sinful seal
#

oh i forgot about this

vagrant mason
#

🤦‍♀️

sinful seal
#

i went way beyond but im nopt deleting

#

17 turens to get to 50........

this means that if it wer 1 player, 17 turns would ensure victory

#

this is the oprder of skips

#

dots mean no number skipped

#

line means u skip one

vagrant mason
#

this is the q btw

sinful seal
#

so my immediate answer is Seth

#

ohh

#

i read thar gery wrong

vagrant mason
#

yeah i think u did 😭

sinful seal
#

my answer is sstill Seth

#

brown turns = seth

#

I dont thinl this is right

#

because im probably not considering some counter strat

vagrant mason
#

how did u do it so fast i think there’s more 2 it

sinful seal
#

like, cain weont necessarily go for the same strategy

#

perhaps

vagrant mason
#

what i did was try it in a way were they both used the lowest numbers and checked for a pattern and came up w this

#

like seth starts with 1,2

#

and cain uses 3,6

#

bc the numbers have to be twice the other

#

the q says we can’t re use the same number used previously

#

so the next number possible to use is 4,8 ??

sinful seal
#

Ohhh i see

vagrant mason
#

maybe i’m interpreting it wrong

#

bc i just assumed they start with 1,3

#

1,2**

#

and they use lowest possible values

sinful seal
#

mina i opened an integration question

#

im sure its on your igcse board lmao

#

wait...

#

so doesnt that mean all numbers are paired

#

ohh isee

#

u cana lso do half

vagrant mason
sinful seal
#

nvm then, that question is a monster

vagrant mason
#

nope idk how to do it

#

i will learn it soon tho

sinful seal
#

kewl

#

soo, u take up more numbers, if u pick middle numbers, u get me?
