[QUOTE="marilapi, post: 29276, member: 2460"] With three pirates, (P3 being more senior, P1 being least). P2, if offered half, will know that P1 was offered nothing so he will vote against it. Then if P2 himself votes against it he knows he will be the most senior leader (66 2/3 % vote against means P3 is executed) and can vote for all the money to himself and get it. The question is asked what the most senior pirate proposes out of greed, which means he would take as much money as he can, not split it with anyone. <input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"> [/QUOTE]
