I don’t think so.

AFAIK, the Monty Hall problem works because of the fact that the door that is revealed must not be the door that you have chosen.

In the actual Monty Hall problem:

  • 2/3 chance of picking a door with a goat, then a door you didn’t pick is revealed as having a goat, so the remaining door has the car
  • 1/3 chance of picking the door with the car, then a door you didn’t pick is revealed as having a goat, so the remaining door also has a goat

But in this problem, (starting at the night of F4 for simplicity and taking nightkills to be random), we during the night of F4 pick a player we think is a wolf (akin to choosing a door), but that player could die. The probabilities are:

  • 1/3 chance you die at night.
  • 2/3 chance you don’t die at night. Given this:
    • 1/3 chance you picked the wolf during the night of F4
    • 1/3 chance you picked the townie who didn’t get nightkilled
    • 1/3 chance you picked the townie who did get nightkilled

When in pandora’s position in F3, you know you didn’t get nightkilled, and you know you didn’t pick the townie who got nightkilled, which leaves the chances at a 50/50, so there is no benefit (or downside) to swapping.

this isn’t to discredit pandora’s overall play to be clear, and she did also have valid reasons to suspect carbonated like this:

I just wouldn’t want to be arguing against this in a game I’m in so I want to clear it up now and also interesting math problem instant nerd snipe
