Rules:
Without any communication with each other, each person writes "contributor" or "parasite" in a PM to the Bank (this account).
The Bank goes through the PMs and records each player's choice. For every contributor he takes $100 from the moderator's treasury and puts it into the Game Bank. For every parasite he removes $200 from the Game Bank, possibly making it go negative.
3. He gives each contributor 1 share and each parasite 2 shares.
4. Finally, he distributes the Game Bank to the players according to how many shares they have. If the Bank is positive the parasites get twice as much as the contributors. If the Bank is negative the parasites owe twice as much as the contributors and they all must pay up.
I will decide on the amount of people and how many days this will last depending on the amount of interest.
The goal is to have more money than any other player by the end of the game (duration to be determined later).
This game differs from the problem in that your goal is to have more money relative to your opponents, instead of having the highest absolute amount of money as seen in the problem.
When I have enough people signed up, every day you must PM me whether if you are a contributor or parasite, and on the following day, I will publish each player's amount of money, and which option they chose the previous day.
When you sign up, please copy the list from the previous post that had someone sign up.
