OK, I take that back. What *universe* are you from? Because on *any*

constitutes a forfeit.
Our understanding of human psychology and human/human interactions is
too incomplete to be able to apply any kind of mathematics on it and
expect to get useful answers out of the process.
As for game theory, if that is what you are trying to apply here then
it seems to me you are entirely ignoring the shadow of the future in
your analysis, and you may be stuck in a trivial model where you think
there are only two distinct players in the game.
