Good idea, but I don't think that that works. Consider the following sequence
I'll write what cave you look in and then what cave the monster is in using parenthesis, so 6 (7) means you look in 6 and the monster is in 7.
6(7), 8(6), 10(7), 1(6), 3(7), 5(6), 7(5), 9(6), 11(7), 2(6), 4(7), 6(8), 8(7), 10(6), 1(5), 3(6),5(7), 7(6), 9(7), 1(6)
That is 20 days. Your strategy will find him a lot of the time if he moves randomly, but it is not guaranteed.
Is there a runner up prize too? Don't want to sound greedy but was just curious.
Loved the idea of NO SPOILERS.
Hmm, I'll think about that, I like the idea but anyone who wanted that runner up prize could just decode and copy the winners answer with the current system, so I'd need a slightly different approach.
What you can do is that to consider only the oldest post only.
well I dont think that there could be one perfect strategy and with every answer there will be exceptions of situations where it wont work. Hop mine is the best till the rewards come and I end up winning. These riddles are fun. Thanks
