Are there any math/probability people here? I have a question for you. Below is a simulation of the negotiation process in the Spire. It assumes 8 items labeled A-H are offered. On the left are what items are available to be offered at the start of each offer round and the right shows the results of that offer round. After round 2 only Spirit 2 is unsatisfied. Out of the 4 possibilities (CDGH) for round 3 I chose C because in round 1 C was in the wrong position. I understand that in Round 2 Spirit 1 needed C and I could not conclude that Spirit 2 also needed C, but I have this feeling that there is a higher probability that Spirit 2 needed C compared to D, G, or H. Does anybody know if I am right in thinking that?
Offer Round | Items Available to Offer | Spirit 1 | Spirit 2 | Spirit 3 | Spirit 4 | Spirit 5 |
1 | ABCDEFGH | A-NOT NEED | B-NOT NEED | C-WRONG | D-MATCH | E-NOT NEED |
2 | CD FGH | C-MATCH | F-NOT NEED | G-MATCH | D-MATCH | H-MATCH |
3 | CD GH | C-MATCH | C-MATCH | G-MATCH | D-MATCH | H-MATCH |
