Hi everyone,
I have a riddle for you all! I hope you enjoy!
–
You’re the designer for an engineering contest. In the contest, you have to design a robot to battle. Your opponents are the Blue Cats and the Yellow Bees.
Their robots are fierce. Blue Cat’s robot will defeat their opponent 70% of the time. Yellow Bee’s even fiercer robot will defeat their opponent a stunning 90% of the time.
You’re now presented with the choice of choosing the robot your team will enter. You have the Jumpy-Bot, a bot equipped with super-durable springs. The bot will beat its opponent 60% of the time. Another choice is the Speedy-Bot. It will defeat its opponent 80% of the time. And for your engineering group’s pièce de résistance: The Battle-Bot. Equipped with razor-sharp blades, the highest-quality wheels, and more, the Battle-Bot will defeat its opponent 100% of the time.
Each bot will attack any opponent it likes. It will go in a clockwise rotation, you being first, then the Blue Cat’s robot, and then the Yellow Bee’s robot. To avoid draws, if no one is eliminated after the Yellow Bee’s robot, then all of the robots will be destroyed and you will lose.
Which bot will you choose to make sure you’re the last one standing?
RULES:
- This is a 3-way duel. Starting with you, everyone will take turns taking a move against another robot. If everyone is standing at the end of a round, then everyone will lose.
- You can’t target two opponents.
- You can miss.
Hint: Think realistically! Every opponent will prioritize. What will be prioritized is a secret, but you’ll probably figure it out! ;D
SOLUTION:
Pick the Jumpy-Bot. If you pick the Battle-Bot, then all of the bots will come for you. But if you pick the Jumpy-Bot, you’ll be the least threatening. However, there’s the dilemma of being first. The solution? Miss! After missing, Blue Cat’s robot will be forced to choose Yellow Bee’s robot since it’s the most intimidating. He’ll have a 70% chance of winning. After he wins, you’ll have a 60% chance of winning!
