GoLow - Intro

The Simple Rules

The Basic Dilemma

1.	So #1 is the lowest - I'm a certain winner, unless somebody else votes for it too.
2.	Everyone thinks #1 is best. So let's vote #2, while the others can just collide.
3.	Out of 10 people, there's going to be a few voting for #1 and #2. #3 is still low, yet less likely to collide.
4.	Most people will vote below #4. To me, #5 sounds too high.
5.	Playing it safe with #5: maybe this gets most wins. ...until others start using it.
>=6.	I sense that the other 9 people will collide on the lower 5 numbers.

Not Just Luck

You have some data to help with your vote

You have statistics of the most voted numbers.

You have statistics of the numbers with the most wins.

You have statistics of the people already in the game.

You see other players' vote comments and fake votes in the game.

You can post messages to the game to confuse your opponents :)

You can check players' real (and fake) votes along with their comments from earlier games.

Stuff You Should Know

If a number wins many games, people will start using it (and screw it up)

Winning a game with an unfake vote is pure epic.

...because of that, not all fake votes are fake :)

GoLow Dictionary

Collision	More players vote on the same number - none of them wins.
Total Collision	No number has been uniquely voted on. Nobody wins the game.
Fake vote	An extra vote that is displayed before the end of the game to confuse other users. A way to bluff.
Unfake vote	A vote is called 'unfake' when the fake vote matches the real vote.
