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

there are only two distinct players in the game.

(Explanation)

Very well, then, it seems that the model has at least two major flaws:

1) It completely disregards the shadow of the future.

2) It presupposes that everyone who observes and participates in the
game is using the same scoring rules that you do. I expect that a
great many people, and in particular people on this newsgroup, do
not. This will tend to result in you coming out of the game with a
completely different score, as viewed by others, than what you
believe. It also exacarbates the negative effects of (1) above.
