So today was the day that we tested out game theory and zero sum. And I must say the results were definitely surprising. In zero sum there are winner's and loser's so the sum of the both is zero. However, today I think our class found a way to be all winners. I don't want to indulge too much because our project for this experiment is due on Monday and I don't want our professor to find out the secrets. All I can say is that when there is a single goal that needs to be reached, people will sacrifice to work together and achieve that goal.
In our case there could only be one person or one group getting an A while the rest of the class would fail. However, this task seemed difficult because there was competition. The best way to beat the competition was to eliminate the competition. By doing this, the individuals sacrificed some of their own choices to make the smarter choice that would benefit them the best. More on this on Monday.
