Bwild: @ "it seems highly unlikely that these 2(?) players can be 1 apart for so many turns."

If people don't pay attention to each other's actions and pick a number more or less at random, then yes, that is extremely unlikely. But if one person uses a formula that is based, for instance, on the average number from the last round, and sticks rigidly to this formula, and somebody else figures out what he does and takes advantage - then this is not unlikely at all. In fact, what we see in these two ponds is exactly what you would expect to see.

Onderwerp: Re:

pedestrian: i dont know if you can call it a formula .. but personally i look back to the last 3 rounds .. i look at how much the average increases between those rounds and continue from that .. or i simple do 1.5 times the last difference

its quite easy to copy that and add 1 ...
i think the 'formula' used by other players is a bit more complicated .. but as said .. the goal of this game is to guess the formula used by your fellow players and use it to your advantage
