Do ants reproduce?

Because workers can live for max 3yaers, so just wait for three years until all ants die of old age

Solved.

>NEITHER TEAM AGES
>ALSO THEY DONT REPRODUCE
TRY AGAIN

Solved?

the friction from the ants moving would ignite the atmosphere and kill everything

So just kill off the ants on the periphery(in shifts)and while the inner marines chill, keep doing that untill someone is overrun

Ants are not matchsticks

>Niether team ages

You blow in from stupid town?

A near infinite amount of ants would create a near infinite amount of heat

marines use flamethrowers
flamethrowers consume all oxygen in the area
marines all ded
ants win

That many ants and marines in a "confined" (think 5 AUs or so) space would gravitationally collapse into a blackhole of retardation.

Nature 1, Ants + Marines 0

Replying to myself, but I forgot how big Graham's number was. 5 AUs was a bit of an understatement... The observable universe couldn't contain that many ants.

I.... Don't even know what would happen at that scale. Pretty sure it would be a reality ending massacre because literally all regions of space-time would be crammed with ants. Pretty sure that's far beyond our current description of physics, when literally the entire universe becomes a black hole. But how do you "warp spacetime" when you've already filled up spacetime...

Sigh...
>INFINITE PLANE

If infinite plane still observes the laws of physics... The ants and marines would have to be so far spread out to not cause gravitational fuckery that I'm tempted to give this one to the marines.

Thas not how it works but lets pretend.
>no geographical features
Marines will dehydrate and die first.

Both will instantly collapse into black holes. But since the number of ants is so much greater than a googolplex, it'll take that much longer for the black hole to properly form.

Ants win.

Assuming there is 1 any per sq mm
1e8 ants per sq m
A flamethrower can clear a circle of radius 10m
Thats approx 100 sq m
That’s 1e10 ants
Assuming it takes 10s to clear that 100 sq m
Thats 10sq m per second of ant clearing
If an ant has a velocity of 1m.s
It can go as far as 10m in 10s
So there is a reasonable chance an ant will get to a marine from time to time
Assuming 1 ant per 10s get to a marine and bite him
Assuming 1 ant bite takes up 1 sq mm of marines skin
So that makes 1e8 ants bite to bite the marine on all the surface of his skin (approx)
That will take 10e9 seconds to cover a marine in bites
(Lets make it 1000x more to kill the marine)
That’s 1e12 seconds
That’s 1e22 ants dead in that time (per marine)
That accounts for approx 1e122 s to kill all the marines assuming constant supply of ants
1e122 is still far far far far smaller than graham’s number
Ants win
