fixes https://github.com/iamsammak/thehuntgame/issues/161 script to run performance test

emulates a user by joining a table, then doing the following 50 times:
- waits for a random period of time (between 0 and 10 seconds)
- navigates to a random person's page
- submit an answer (1 in 50 chance that the user will submit the correct answer and move onto the next puzzle
spins up 200 users in 10 seconds, then lets them run for 5 minutes.

tested on production server, doesn't look super good: Screenshot from 2019-04-13 21-23-56

this script emulates what i think would be behavior on the more extreme side, so we might be ok, but we'll probably need to make the server more powerful to handle the load
