Puzzles and Challenges / Simulator challenge: beat BMU with a 70% or higher win rate, but there's a catch
« on: May 30, 2012, 11:23:24 pm »
First off, not sure if this goes here or in Simulation, it's a bit of both.
Using Geronimoo's simulator, create a bot that can beat Colonized Big Money Ultimate with a 70% or higher win rate, something that should be a trivial task except for a slight catch.
Well, two catches, to be precise.
1) The bot must always open with Curse/Curse.
2) The bot may not buy Colony, Platinum or Gold.
Turn order and opening hands must be random.
I attempted this, it won 71.179% in a 100,000-trial simulation. I'm sure it's possible to do better, though.
I'm not sure if I should post my solution now or wait a few days.
EDIT: Apparently it does go in the simulation forum, my mistake. If a mod could move it over, that would be awesome, thanks.
