number three seemed a little easy to me which means in all probability I have it wrong. You would shoot at the cyborg with the most amount of accuracy thus making you only 50% likely to be hit.

you shoot at yourself and have a 2/3 chance of surviving.  the other cyborgs shoot at each other because you are an idiot.  at least one of them will die.  then you hope you have better aim at your next shot at one of them.

The 100% accuracy cyborg is going to aim at the 50% accuracy cyborg, the 50% accuracy cyborg is going to aim at the 100% accuracy cyborg.

You do not shoot during the first round because there is a 33% chance you will lose the game, you pass up your turn. 50% accuracy cyborg shoots at 100% cyborg.

From here, he hits or he misses. If he hits, the biggest threat is eliminated. If he misses, he is eliminated by the 100% cyborg.

At this point, you shoot at whoever is remaining, this gives you the best possible odds in this situation.

For Diego, I found this online so don't google it:

Of three men, one man always tells the truth, one always tells lies, and one answers yes or no randomly. Each man knows which man is who. You may ask three yes/no question to determine who is who. If you ask the same question to more than one person you must count it as question used for each person whom you ask. What three questions should you ask?

By "yes or no randomly", do you mean truth or lie randomly, or simply "yes" or "no" randomly?

Yes or no randomly, without respect to truth or falsehood.

Feel the one of the white marbles. Place it in the black jar, and by feeling it, you will know where you placed it. Now pick it up and put it in back in the white jar. Repeat this. Now, when it comes to his time to choose which jar, he should just pick from the white jar. I don't know if that would work. I just thought of it.
