Lift

I realize that taking a lift is very similiar to the game of Othello aka Reversi.
The basic strategy employed by the game is to try to get the corners. If the corner is taken, you avoid placing near the corner.

In a smiliar fashion, whenever someone takes a lift, that person will always seem to take the corner. If there are already 3 person inside, most likely 3 corners had been taken. The logical step forward is to take the last corner. If there are 4 persons, possibly all corners are taken, that will force you to stand right in the middle. Isn't it?
