a weekly bull-vs-bear blind vote. back a side, pay the entry, advance with the majority. the pot grows every round — champions split the jackpot, and every bear earns for the rounds it won, even if it's knocked out.
Bears go to war every week. You secretly back 🐂 bull or 🐻 bear, pay the entry fee, and lock your bear into the game. When voting closes the sides are revealed — the bigger side advances, the rest are eliminated and branded loser for good. The entry rises each week and the pot grows; when the field narrows to the last 100 (or the fee gets too steep for a round to fill), the game ends. The pot then pays in three layers: the champion jackpot to the final survivors, a participation pool that pays every bear by the rounds it won (even knocked-out ones), and an honors rebate of your own fees.

POT
grows every round →
Every week the entry fee climbs and the pot grows. Win a round and it's your call — keep fighting, sit one out, jump back in a later round, or pull your bear out entirely — and you can switch sides every week. Lose (or skip a reveal) and your bear is branded a loser forever. When the field hits the last 100 (or the fee gets too steep to fill a round), the pot pays in three layers: the champion jackpot to the final survivors, a participation pool that pays every bear for the rounds it won — even if it was knocked out — and an honors rebate of your own fees. Reward tracks how much you won, not just whether you won last. Only stake what you're willing to lose.

a model, not a promise — most bears get eliminated. the pot splits a champion jackpot (survive to the end) and a per-round-won pool that pays everyone for the rounds they won — even if you're later knocked out. you're only charged when you vote, so max you'd spend is your ceiling.

deterministic what-if: the crowd splits by your "bull bias" and thins by the elim rate; you set your own split & sit-outs each round. champions = your bears that played and won the final (cull) round (they split the jackpot). won-rounds pay = the all-players pool for every round your bears won — you keep this even if knocked out. hedging both sides guarantees survivors but doubles fees; pile enough of your own bears on the thin side and you can force a draw (everyone advances). want a full multi-strategy sim? download the rules ↓ and paste them into any AI model.
the equilibrium — why this is a game, not a coin toss
01
the bigger side advances
so your instinct is to guess the crowd's majority — blind, before anyone can see it. a Keynesian beauty contest: vote what you think everyone votes.
02
but champions split the jackpot equally
a giant winning herd means tiny slices each. piling onto the obvious side is self-defeating — you'd share the jackpot with the whole crowd (the participation pool still pays your wins).
03
so the rational play is mixed
those two forces pull against each other toward a ~50/50 equilibrium. there's no free Schelling side that both wins and pays well.
04
force a tie → everyone advances
a dead-even round is a draw — both sides survive. coordinate a stalemate and nobody's culled, though the fee climbs and the pot keeps diluting.
your edge isn't being right about bull vs bear — it's reading where the crowd will go, then choosing: follow the herd for safety, or break away for a richer, lonelier slice.
