Community Activity:Gold Grab Competition

It's been a while since I've made a good competition, so here it goes.

Welcome to the Gold Grab Competition!

In this competition, you will be choosing 1 out of 6 mines daily. Each one gives a different amount of gold and has different properties. It's up to you to devise a strategy to end up with the most gold at the end of the competition.

Cursed
If you are cursed, you will find 50% less money than usual. Being cursed multiple times does not amplify the curse.

You can hire an exorcist for 400 gold, and he will cleanse you of the curse.

Death
If you die, Death will take away 80% of your gold. If you have less than 500 gold at death, then Death will banish you to the Underworld, and you will be eliminated from the competition.

Rules

 * Every day, there will be a poll in discussions, asking you to choose a mine. Once you have chosen, you cannot switch.
 * You're not required to pick a mine every day.
 * The host (Henry Hudson) will message you every day; he will keep track of your balance, and what happens on your mining trip (cursed, earnings, death, etc.) Every message will be on the same thread.
 * The competition will begin on Thursday, September 17th, and will last until the end of September.
 * If you wish to be exorcised, then you must tell Henry Hudson on the game thread.
 * If you're banished to the Underworld, then you won't be allowed to play anymore. However, you will still appear on the leaderboard with your final gold count before death.
 * All chances will be random. I will do a random number generator from 1-20 to determine your fate.
