greed, the emotion, is now a simple game of psychology and numbers.

every round, pick an integer between 1 and 10. at the end of the round, points are calculated as: (number you picked) / (number of people who picked that number) if multiple people pick the same number, they split the points. for example, if 4 people choose 8, each gets 2 points (8 / 4). if only you pick 7, you get all 7 points. so, the more greedy people are, the less points they get.

it has a built-in chat so you can bluff about the numbers you chose, and a stat record (people vs points graphs). and a leaderboard...
