| Aug 20, 2014 at 21:08 | comment | added | Steven Lu | It's been really fun reading through the submissions. I'm also very surprised that this one (which is actually quite simple, but is slightly obfuscated in its implementation) came out on top of all the other far more intelligent bots. The dynamics of this competition are apparently very chaotic | |
| Jul 23, 2014 at 11:17 | comment | added | jaybz | Possibly a bug, or I misunderstood the comments and description, but the Mercenary doesn't actually do what it was meant to do. Except for the first random round, he will always side with evil unless less than 1/6 of the people voted for evil on the previous round. | |
| Jul 22, 2014 at 19:48 | comment | added | Rainbolt | @PaŭloEbermann You can see which submissions Mercenary was paired against by looking at the Scoreboard, also posted at the top of the challenge. Unfortunately, someone has pointed out that there may be a problem with the scores. Once I verify, I may award another bounty. | |
| Jul 22, 2014 at 19:43 | comment | added | Paŭlo Ebermann | @Rainbolt: Do have an example transcript (i.e. against which other "Humans" it did run, and how they did vote (the input to the last round))? | |
| Jul 22, 2014 at 16:10 | comment | added | Rainbolt | Congratulations, King of the Hill! I don't understand how this entry wins. Care to add an explanation, now that it has a 300 reputation bounty attached to it? | |

| Jul 15, 2014 at 20:53 | comment | added | Rainbolt | The longest your submission took to respond with 21 players over 1000 rounds was 0.045 seconds in round 4. On average, you flopped between 0.02 and 0.30 repeatedly. The other players were all Angels or Demons, so the results may still not be too accurate. I'm just bored and playing with the timers lol. | |
| Jul 15, 2014 at 20:35 | comment | added | fabigler | @Rusher OK thank you very much! | |

@fabigler Sure. Here are the results with just you and a couple of other players: {{Angel,499500},{Mercenary,3000},{Demon,3000}}. This is probably not a good indication of how you would do with more players involved, but it compiles and runs for 1000 rounds with no problem.

| Jul 15, 2014 at 20:18 | comment | added | fabigler | @PaŭloEbermann You're right. Should have readen it more carefully. Edited the class a bit, now | |
| Jul 15, 2014 at 20:18 | comment | added | fabigler | @Rusher Changed the class a bit, now. Could you submit this, and check if it works? | |

| Jul 15, 2014 at 19:05 | comment | added | Paŭlo Ebermann | Hmm, but how do you know that your own entry is the last one? You just do the opposite of what the guy which was sorted last did last round, which could actually be the same thing each round. | |

| Jul 15, 2014 at 0:47 | comment | added | Rainbolt | Your switch statement was missing a return statement for the default case, causing it to not compile. I added a random one. | |

Needed a return for the default case in order to compile...

| Jul 14, 2014 at 21:34 | comment | added | fabigler | True, but this guy is an even more evil bastard. Deserting his pals every turn, only for the sake of money. | |
| Jul 14, 2014 at 21:31 | comment | added | Rainbolt | This is the second post to say something about money. Am I missing a reference or something? | |
