Does laziness have anything to do with the responses? You get a rule that seems to work and so you seek the reward early. It takes effort to prove yourself wrong.
I was trapped by this and guessed it was exponential series n^1,n^2 etc for n starting at greater than 2. While technically true this was not the rule they had in mind.
- eru 11y agoWhy is it technically true?
- smilefreak 11y agoAs in every number in that set is a subset of the larger set of x < y < z. Poor language choice it's not true, yes I was wrong. I am just curious as to how much laziness and not necessarily confirmation bias has to do with the result. If getting it wrong had some kind of penalty or getting it right had some kind of reward ( money etc. ..), how much better would people do then?
- eru 11y agoYes, it seems most people's rules actually were subsets of the true rule. Laziness is involved to a certain degree. Though I don't know how much---no one is forcing anyone to do the puzzle, so the truly lazy filter out, too.
