A New Year's Challenge: Can You Crack the Cookie Jar Conundrum?
Logic enthusiasts, rejoice! World Logic Day has arrived, and with it comes a brain-twisting puzzle that will put your deductive reasoning skills to the test. Three friends - Andy, Bea, and Celine - have a jar of ten cookies and agree to take turns drawing out as many cookies as they like, with certain conditions in place.
The rules are straightforward: no one wants to end up with the most or least number of cookies, and they aim to collect as many cookies as possible. However, there's a catch. If condition 1 (avoiding extremes) takes priority over condition 2 (maximizing cookie collection), how will this affect their final score?
Think you can solve it? The solution won't be revealed until later, so for now, consider the following: what happens when rationality meets logic? Will one person end up with all the cookies, or will they find a way to divide them fairly? Share your thoughts on illogical arguments and discuss this puzzle with fellow enthusiasts.
In the meantime, get ready to put your problem-solving skills to the test. The clock is ticking, and only one answer can be correct.

I'm not really sure what's so challenging about this, it just seems like they're trying to make a decision on who gets more cookies than the others...I mean, why can't you just divide the 10 cookies evenly among the three of them? It would be fair and no one would end up with all or none. But I guess that's not what they want since there are "certain conditions in place"... 
. To me, it's all about weighing the importance of having a decent number of cookies versus collecting as many as possible without going extreme. It's interesting how rationality and logic can sometimes conflict with each other.
! I had this same issue with my ex bf's cookie jar last year... we were trying to divide it fairly among us three, but he kept trying to cheat me out of some because "he liked cookies more". Like, I get it, who doesn't love cookies? 
But seriously though, this puzzle is giving me so much anxiety, what if no one gets any cookies and the jar just sits there empty? 
I'm going to take a wild guess here and say that Andy will be the cookie king... he's always been the smartest person in our group of friends

OMG, I'm so here for this challenge! 
. I think it's gonna be super hard to solve because you gotta balance out the extremes 
. What if one person takes too many cookies and leaves everyone else with barely anything? 
.
. Or what if they have to draw from a random cookie pot, not knowing how many are left?
