It's
a
good
day
to
be
a
pirate
Amaro
and
his
four
mateys
Bart
Charlotte
Daniel
and
Eliza
Have
struck
gold
A
chest
with
100
coins
But
now
they
must
divvy
up
the
booty
According
to
the
pirate
code
As
captain
Amaro
gets
to
propose
How
to
distribute
the
coins
Then
each
pirate
including
Amaro
himself
Gets
to
vote
either
yarr
or
nay
If
the
vote
passes
or
if
there's
a
tie
The
coins
are
divided
according
to
plan
But
if
the
majority
votes
nay
Amaro
must
walk
the
plank
And
Bart
becomes
captain
Then
Bart
gets
to
propose
a
new
distribution
And
all
remaining
pirates
vote
again
If
his
plan
is
rejected
he
walks
the
plank
too
And
Charlotte
takes
his
place
This
process
repeats
With
the
captain's
hat
moving
to
Daniel
and
then
Eliza
Until
either
a
proposal
is
accepted
Or
there's
only
one
pirate
left
Naturally
each
pirate
wants
to
stay
alive
While
getting
as
much
gold
as
possible
But
being
pirates
none
of
them
trust
each
other
So
they
can't
collaborate
in
advance
And
being
blood-thirsty
pirates
If
anyone
thinks
they'll
end
up
with
the
same
amount
of
gold
either
way
They'll
vote
to
make
the
captain
walk
the
plank
just
for
fun
Finally
each
pirate
is
excellent
at
logical
deduction
And
knows
that
the
others
are
too
What
distribution
should
Amaro
propose
to
make
sure
he
lives?
If
we
follow
our
intuition
It
seems
like
Amaro
should
try
to
bribe
the
other
pirates
With
most
of
the
gold
To
increase
the
chances
of
his
plan
being
accepted
But
it
turns
out
he
can
do
much
better
than
that
Why
?
Like
we
said
the
pirates
all
know
each
other
to
be
top-notch
logicians
So
when
each
votes
They
won't
just
be
thinking
about
the
current
proposal
But
about
all
possible
outcomes
down
the
line
And
because
the
rank
order
is
known
in
advance
Each
can
accurately
predict
How
the
others
would
vote
in
any
situation
And
adjust
their
own
votes
accordingly
Because
Eliza's
last
she
has
the
most
outcomes
to
consider
So
let's
start
by
following
her
thought
process
She'd
reason
this
out
by
working
backwards
From
the
last
possible
scenario
With
only
her
and
Daniel
remaining
Daniel
would
obviously
propose
to
keep
all
the
gold
And
Eliza's
one
vote
would
not
be
enough
to
override
him
So
Eliza
wants
to
avoid
this
situation
at
all
costs
Now
we
move
to
the
previous
decision
point
With
three
pirates
left
and
Charlotte
making
the
proposal
Everyone
knows
that
if
she's
outvoted
The
decision
moves
to
Daniel
Who
will
then
get
all
the
gold
while
Eliza
gets
nothing
So
to
secure
Eliza's
vote
Charlotte
only
needs
to
offer
her
slightly
more
than
nothing
one
coin
Since
this
ensures
her
support
Charlotte
doesn't
need
to
offer
Daniel
anything
at
all
What
if
there
are
four
pirates?
As
captain
Bart
would
still
only
need
one
other
vote
for
his
plan
to
pass
He
knows
that
Daniel
wouldn't
want
the
decision
to
pass
to
Charlotte
So
he
would
offer
Daniel
one
coin
for
his
support
With
nothing
for
Charlotte
or
Eliza
Now
we're
back
at
the
initial
vote
with
all
five
pirates
standing
Having
considered
all
the
other
scenarios
Amaro
knows
that
if
he
goes
overboard
The
decision
comes
down
to
Bart
Which
would
be
bad
news
for
Charlotte
and
Eliza
So
he
offers
them
one
coin
each
keeping
98
for
himself
Bart
and
Daniel
vote
nay
But
Charlotte
and
Eliza
grudgingly
vote
yarr
Knowing
that
the
alternative
would
be
worse
for
them
The
pirate
game
involves
some
interesting
concepts
from
game
theory
One
is
the
concept
of
common
knowledge
Where
each
person
is
aware
of
what
the
others
know
And
uses
this
to
predict
their
reasoning
And
the
final
distribution
is
an
example
of
a
Nash
equilibrium
Where
each
player
knows
every
other
players'
strategy
And
chooses
theirs
accordingly
Even
though
it
may
lead
to
a
worse
outcome
for
everyone
Than
cooperating
would
No
individual
player
can
benefit
by
changing
their
strategy
So
it
looks
like
Amaro
gets
to
keep
most
of
the
gold
And
the
other
pirates
might
need
to
find
better
ways
To
use
those
impressive
logic
skills
Like
revising
this
absurd
pirate
code
