Money or value
No deposits, withdrawals, purchases, prizes, credits, coupons, tokens, crypto-assets, or transferable balances.
Safety and ethics
The experiment cannot be played
The site reports assumptions and distributions. It cannot accept money, create value or allow a visitor to influence a wager.
Visitor wagering
No bet, spin, deal, cash-out, game-choice, policy-change, or account-creation path. Public interfaces are read-only.
Promotion
No affiliate links, operator advertising, bonuses, odds comparison, inducements, tips, or claims that a system beats the house.
Presentation safeguards
Every result keeps its context
- Winner profiles include the full distribution and the same policy across 1,000 worlds.
- Total allocated capital appears beside current bankroll.
- Actual and theoretical RTP are labelled separately.
- Colour is never the only chart encoding; tables and text summaries remain available.
- No autoplay audio, urgent countdown, near-miss effect, flashing celebration, or reward loop.
Research ethics
Synthetic results are not human evidence
- Policies are simplified state machines, not identifiable people.
- No clinical or diagnostic claim follows from a synthetic cohort.
- The six-month horizon is not a universal gambling trajectory.
- Bankroll replenishment is an experimental device, not a statement about income cycles.
- Any future human-participant or visitor-data study requires separate consent, privacy, and ethics review.
