Interesting Paradoxes #2

[SlayCC]

Hello welcome to Interesting Paradoxes
Today's paradox is:

Shortcut Paradox
(IDK if this is a thing I made it up and I feel like it's Fairly interesting)

Imagine a city, where everyone thinks very very rationally and logically.

Green Day will be doing a concert in that city and one of the people found out there is another road to the venue other than the main one. He posted it on reddit and almost every person from the city found out about it.

You thought, if they all know the shortcut is there, does that mean they will all go there, thus it is better to take the main road?
BUT because they are also rational, and logical thinking, they will also think that everyone will take the shortcut so they will also not take the shortcut. Should you take the shortcut or not???

- Everyone thinks very Logical And Rational
- Everyone knows about the shortcut
- Everyone will consider everyone else's choices so that they will take the best way possible
- What would be the best way?

They would probably never come to an end with thinking... They can only choose a way at the point where they would stop thinking further. So if they all consider the imaginary choice of the others - they will miss the concert thinking about what way they should take to get there.

it would pay to learn some manners and acquire a sense of humour from the local hospital, heard there is a new vaccine that has that chip you're missing.

Odd #: Each Person would kill the other person until there is one person left (me)

Even: Each person would kill the other person until there is two people left and we will just chill and not fight, go see green day, get married, have kids, live together for the rest of our lives
