The Oche

Normal distributions · 5 throwers · 5 targets
A game of expected value

Five throwers. Five targets. One assignment to get right.

Every thrower on your team has been filmed at the oche. Their radial miss distance — how far the dart lands from dead centre, in centimetres — follows a normal distribution with a known mean μ and standard deviation σ. Five targets are dealt, each with its own rings and point values. You assign one thrower to each target; your opponent assigns the same five throwers at random.

Optional — but the final report only carries a name if you enter one now.
