MrBeast's $1,000,000 Dilemma

  • Let’s say, hypothetically, that famous RUclipsr Mr. Beast created a free $1,000,000 contest in which anyone could play, but the only chance for a winner is if one and only one person entered.
    What would you do? Would you enter and hope you were the only one? Would you enter just to destroy another person’s chances? Would you not bother at all because you were so sure tons of other people would try?
    And here’s the real question: Is it even possible to win this game? Welcome to the Platonia Dilemma, in which Kevin examines a mind-blowing logic game and uncovers the only possible pathway to victory: superrationality.

      I would've guessed the number of rolls to be the lowest amount of rolls with a higher chance of there being at least one V than of there being exactly none. And that is ... 14 rolls:
      1 - (19/20)^14 = 51,2%
      Of course, this is only the expected value ;) (Resisting the irrational temptation of saying: if there is one V, why would it have to be the last among the rolls :] )

    It's pretty easy. No one can win.
    You have two options: Like or don't like. The only way you can win is by liking. Not liking is useless, because you can (in theory) help someone you don't know win, which not many people care about. So basically, with liking you would have a very small chance to win in theory and with not liking you will lose anyway.
    That's why 9/10 people will like and there is no chance to win, especially with a bigger group.

      martixy its actually real, well sort of, at least at an evolutionary level. Super rationality works if you know that in every given situation every other player is the same. Imagine this scenario played out millions of times. Sure, declining to snatch the prize means you wont win this time, but when your turn comes the only way you could win is if no one else tries to snatch it. I guess what im describing is cooperation but I hear the same arguments when people discuss the evolution of biological cooperation

    This could be done ten trillion times, and there still wouldn't be a winner.
    Greed.
    If someone doesn't like the video, then they don't have the potential to gain the reward.
    Therefore it's more likely people will like the video than otherwise.
    The only way to win, is to cheat.
    Even if the world was cheating, what's the point?
    Why would you team up with the world, and earn your whopping share of less than one cent?
    You'd like the video so nobody wins, in hopes that maybe in the future you'd win the full reward for yourself.
    Everyone, regardless of cheaters, would like the video.

      That’s not at all how game theory works. It’s simply a model for predicting behavior with any given payoff value, which may sometimes be negative. This game is indeed able to be modeled in terms of game theory, and even has Nash equilibria, iterative deletion, probability, and payoff values. Even biology is adherent to game theory, I don’t know why you think this game wouldn’t be.
