Humans are terrible at being random. |

What if it was structured so that the hermit did not know that he was picking anything? Hidden cameras, mics, etc. |

Players file their choices, based on a sequence of actions or outcomes that may occur to or around the hermit, and a tally is kept of the ones that are actually done and the order. Order is crucial; you may lose if you thought he would fart after dinner, but if you thought he would fart before dinner you would move on to the next plateau. As well, if he masturbated before his orange juice the next morning, all your fart computations would be in vain if he chose grapefruit juice. Over the course of the game losers are dropped out but new players are may be added at steeply increasingly higher fees to match the growing kitty. Having guessed or lucked out and winning the bank, the last person standing takes all. The hermit is sent a pair of snuggly fleece slippers anonymously. |

I fear for the security and sanity of the hermit, whatever protocol is followed. A hermit no longer... |

Happy New Year to all the hermits out there! |

//What if it was structured so that the hermit did not know that he was picking anything?// - I like that. It has similarities with the man who ruled the universe in the Douglas Adam’s’ Hitchhiker’s Guide books. He lived alone in a planet with his cat, and men came in spaceships and asked him questions but he didn’t know that the answers he gave to those questions affected the fates of billions of people. |
