12 sats \ 3 replies \ @SimpleStacker OP 9 Dec
Not quite right. There are some values of N>4 for which you won't want to take 3.

Can't get stuck taking 3 on 11 or other prime numbers thereafter.
Edit: I'm at work so I can't fully flesh this out completely, but it would seem that 11, 13 and 17 screw you by taking three

Actually maybe just 11 and 13. I don't know why but those numbers seem to screw you either way.

You're right about 11. But with 13 you can avoid ending up with the last dumpling.
