So the first person (P1) gets everything up to their second card. Are you saying that the second person (P2) gets everything from P1's second card up until P2's second card? How is that not a small unfair amount of candy?

I think after the first round, you need to remove all of P1's cards, and all of the 'second cards' from the remaining players too?



Whoever has the leftmost second card gets everything between their first and second cards.

After that point, whichever remaining person has the leftmost third card gets everything between their second and third cards.

After that point, whichever remaining person has the leftmost fourth card gets everything between their third and fourth cards.

And so forth.

I'm having a hard time explaining it concisely, but it should be pretty intuitive once you figure out what I'm babbling about.


Yeah gotcha!
