    You should do a version of this where the prize starts at $0, and every time the button is pressed, it kills that person, but adds $20 to the prize pool. See how many people sacrifice themselves for the group. Maybe even have the twist be that the ending prize is split between the people who pressed the button.

      @@im_cent even if it wasn’t a lie it doesn’t make any fucking sense. The money lowering and the death are related to eachother. If the button is “constantly depressed” then that would mean the button basically either is being clicked a lot or not being clicked, not both. So either it would work normally and people would die and the cost would lower, or neither would happen because it’s not being de-pressed so nothing happens as nothing is being pressed. This comment doesn’t make sense at all, unless you’re assuming that the cost lowering is somehow directly connected during the de-press and not the initial press, which is a stupid fucking assumption.

  • @IONATVS
    @IONATVS 2 роки тому +1073

    there is a slight “flaw” with this experiment from a game theory perspective-anyone who does the math would know that it is NEVER advantageous to anyone, including yourself, to press the button. Every time the button is pressed, the survivors’ expected value of winnings stays UNCHANGED, and the less times the button is pressed, the less chance you have of being eliminated and the less money you win if you do win. The ONLY reasons to press the button are ignorance (because surviving a button press SEEMS like it should increase your overall expected value even though it doesn’t) or malice.

    • @albertarvadottosen3512
      @albertarvadottosen3512 2 роки тому +126

      Your expected winnings actually goes down. Pressing the button doesn’t change your probability of winning because the probability of dying balances out decrease in players. You have to multiply the chance of surviving the button press with the chance of winning. Formally: 1/(n-1) * (n - 1)/n = 1/n, where n is the number of players alive
      But the price pool decreases, so expected outcome decreases by 0.1$ every press.

    • @IONATVS
      @IONATVS 2 роки тому +61

      @@albertarvadottosen3512 yes, i just phrased it differently-your expected winnings GIVEN you survive is the same, but you ALSO have a chance of dying. So even if you are on the winning side, you get no net benefit, and if you aren’t, obviously you get less. V_exp = V(W)*P(W|S)*P(S), with V(W) and P(S) decreasing linearly while P(W|S) increases linearly in lockstep with them.

      @IONATVS 2 роки тому +51

      I wouldn’t say so-the math is never explained to them, so I think a lot are under the FALLACY that it is selfish-but advantageous to push the button. A few probably figured it out and just pressed the button despite rationally knowing it’s the wrong move, and many others probably figured it out and as such just watched from the sidelines knowing it was both their best chance of success and the least harmful, but if you want to test “people doing the irrational thing” they need to KNOW what the rational strategy is.

    Fun fact, pressing the button actually doesn't increase your chances to win at all. Each time the button is pressed, you have the same chance to die from it that you do to win with the current player count. Coupled with the decreased reward from every death, this means that pressing the button is always the incorrect choice. If we take it to the extreme, let's say there are only two people left; you and one other person. You have two choices, press the button and have a 50% chance to live and walk away with $10, *OR* wait out the remaining time, and have a 50% chance to walk away with $20. While it would require more tedious math, this logic applies no matter how many people are left.
    Because of this, it would've been better to make it impossible for the presser to be killed, which would leave what was probably the intended social experiment about greed.
    Though of course, some people just wanna watch the world burn, and will press the button anyway.

      From a game theory perspective the best move is to not press the button. The chance that you survive a press and win with one less person is the same as winning before the press, but the prize pool is 10 dollars less. For instance if there are ten people left, you have a 9/10 chance of surviving a press, and a 1/9 chance of winning with 9 people alive, which multiplied together is 1/10, the same as winning with 10 people alive, but the prize pool is now $90 instead of $100.

    Mathematically, pushing the button doesn't even give you a higher chance of winning money. Sure, if you live your odds go from 1/100 to 1/99, but the 1/100 chance of you dying cancels that out. So if you think about it there is no reason to push the button unless you just want to lower the prize pool.

      Another interesting fact: pressing the button continually until one person is left gives you a 0.01 chace of winning 10 dollars, putting the expected value of this strategy all the way down to 0.1

    The issue with this is that even for a purely selfish person, it's never advantageous to push the button.

      The problem is that every time you push that button enough times to do that, it actually becomes likely (90% chance) that you also die. The trick is that everyone had the exact same odds of winning the money regardless of how many times the button is pressed, the amount of money just shrinks

    • @worthlesshuman5041

      You can think of Wilbur selecting a person at the end as statistically identical to him just pushing the button x-1 times, where x is the number of remaining participants. In other words, while it's true that *after* surviving your odds of winning the money go up, the act of pushing it doesn't actually increase your odds of winning and basically only serves to shrink the prize pool

      @@candlewax2587 The problem with doing that is that your odds of winning never truly go up, but the pot goes down. Other than malevolence for the sake of malevolence, there's no good reason to push the button. Think of it this way: the odds of winning the full pot at the start is a 1/100 chance. If someone pushes the button, you have a 1/100 chance of being eliminated. If, at that point, nobody pushes the button, your odds of winning are 1/99. If someone pushes the button again, you have a 1/99 chance of getting eliminated. At that point, the odds of winning are 1/98, and pushing the button has a 1/98 chance of killing you. This is true all the way down; your odds of winning with two players left is 1/2, regardless of whether or not you push the button. The odds of you surviving to that point are miniscule, and it evens out to a 1% chance of winning. The only difference is that the further along you are in the chain, the smaller the pot is. It's a good social experiment, but not in the way it initially seems to be.

  • @dutssz

    this challenge is a fun one. There's always two types of people in all "youtube social experiment" videos, the "I'm here to make content/win" and the "I'm happy that I can participate/interact" the problem is that in any other challenge the latter is always in a disadvantage because the winner-fiends have the tools to win and will take the pacifism of the experiencers as an opportunity of easy prey.
    In all the "I left 100 players in X" or "Simulating civilizations in minecraft" there's always the people who just want peace and to have fun, but 5 hits with the sword do the trick so the people who leave are always the same.
    Now in this one, the tool the winner-fiends have to win is self destructive, the winner-fiends can't consistently kill without being killed, but the experiencers can consistently survive, as long as they don't press the button.

    • @Laszer271

      From the point of maximizing your profit you are even at disadvantage if you do press the button. At the beginning you have 1000$ and 1/100 chance of winning so we could say there is expected profit of 1000 * 1/100 = 10$, if someone presses the button, one person dies and the expected profit is 990 * 1/99 so still 10$. This means that no matter whether there is 100 people of you are in the final 10, your expected profit is always the same, however every time someone presses the button there is also a chance of you being kicked out of the game. Every button pressed reduces your chance in participating in the final lottery so the best strategy for maximizing your and everyone's profit is to just sit it out and not press the button.

      It's also worth mentioning that in this game, the "experiencers" are more dangerous. The best logical way to win is for no one to press it, but it's a lot funnier and a lot more enjoyable if you press the button.

      Yep, an experiencer in this scenario is someone who hits the button, while a winner is someone who does not. The winners are helpless.

      How about a pvp where a random secret number is generated for each person, and if they kill more than the number they were assigned to they die themselves?
      Maybe as a bonus or a test of trust, 2 people know each others counters but they don't know their own, and they have to rely on each other to know how many people they can kill. Maybe that way it will keep the social experiment idea.

    No matter how many times the button is pressed, each individual in the starting pool has the same chance of winning the prize, but the total decreases. So the optimal play would be to never press the button, but the trigger happy players cause the total to diminish rapidly.

    • @sugoish9461
      @sugoish9461 2 роки тому +24

      Wait how would that work? If there are 50 players to start with and none press the button, the win chance will be 1/50. If they press the button 25 times and there are say 25 people left, the win chance is 1/25, right? Ignoring the risk of death, their win chance increases each time
