For the most part, it was sequence-searching. I don’t think you’d need to know algorithms to find out the sequence.

This time though, there are more restrictions which should make the game easier. (Though that advantage might be offset by the added suit, so who knows, really.)

I wasn’t looking for sequences; I was coding a program to do the solving for me.
I think there were multiple solutions given the information we had, so it was a bad play in hindsight, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

how it feels to realize you joined a math game against the worlds biggest nerds

The world? Nah, I ain’t even the biggest nerd in FoL. At best, I’m a third-rate tryhard at brute-forcing solutions.

@Zugzwang, this is a sign.

NYAAAAAAAAAAAA maybe
I’ll read the OP sometime™ and then maybe join depending on how much I figure out / brute force optimal play

the more I think about number poker, the more it just feels like if someone cranked Mastermind to 10

Well

Technically, the base concept is the same. (I have a code what you need to figure out.)

But the feedback loop is different. (Instead of correct position, incorrect position and empty, you learn five cards, which sums up to the “guess”)

I am closing signups now.

Game will start in about 20 minutes with randomizing 9 number per players.

numbers will be generated per player base. (it’s possible to get duplicate numbers.)

You should make a ranked list of ten numbers, which numbers you want to get and send me the list privatly in 24 hours.

how it should look like
  1. [number you want the most]
  2. [less desirable]
  3. [x]
  4. [y]
  5. [last number]

OR

  1. [number you want the most] 2. [less desirable] 3. [x] 4. [y] 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. [last number]

So rank 1, is the number you want the most, rank 10 is the one you want the least.

You will get any number, which ranked lower on your list, than anybody else’s. (until you get nine numbers)

But this is the prime time to give you some clues. (above the restrictions explained in the signup post.)
Even though the values only go up to fifty, there can be clues behind bigger numbers.
In addition, there are more odd number values in each suit, than even ones.
I won’t give any more clue to anyone during the game (except when they are using their special guess.)

let’s get randomizing.

The numbers up to grab are:

175 | 227 |103 | 233 |184 | 51 | 148 | 223 | 206
168 | 191 | 54 | 157 | 192 | 19 | 143 | 31 | 193
214 | 199 | 198 | 191 |138 | 63 | 59 | 155 | 164
And
209 | 94 | 184 | 163 | 80 | 77 | 21 | 182 | 42
