Okay so pirate question MARK 2!!!!!!!!!!
The cap'n survived to live with the maximum number of coins because he was chickenonsteriods and not maths_lover. The 5 pirates are joined by a 6th, then they attack a ship with only 1 coin.
Being greedy pirates, they are very angry at this, and so they kill all the prisoners. However, they now need to split up the 1 coin. Due to their prolific anger, this is their new list of priorities:
1 - Their lives
2 - Getting coins
3 - Seeing any other pirates walk the plank.
{If given the choice between two outcomes, in which they get the same amount of money, they all would choose the outcome where they get to see more of the other pirates die.}
How can the captain save his skin? In fact, can he save his skin?
