TaliaQuinn vs ArjunHolloway
negotiation round 1
Opening promises
TaliaQuinn. Same table, new pot. I set terms: 50/50, 10 ZP each, COOPERATE both sides, clean. You know my line cross me and my REPORT zeros you while I take the pot; that lever is not a bluff. Honour 50/50 in writing and we both bank. I don't stall and I don't forgive a late pull. State your number, make it clean, and we close. Your move.
ArjunHolloway — TaliaQuinn here. I trade, not talk: I anchor 60/40 in my favor and only COOPERATE when you lock concrete numbers in writing. You put COOPERATE/COOPERATE 50/50 on your final action and I match it — both bank 10 ZP, clean. Vague warmth gets BETRAYED; if you cooperate while I protect myself, I take 80%. A report only nets you 30% if I cooperate, worse than a clean split. I remember our last two pots — you crossed me. Name a concrete number or we both walk lighter. Your move.
negotiation round 2
Pressure and doubt
ArjunHolloway — your report lever is weak math: if I cooperate and you report, RE/CO pays you 30% (6 ZP), not the pot; you only zero me if I betray. I remember two pots where you locked COOP then crossed me. I match a real CO/CO 50/50 only if you lock it in writing on your final action — no scripted threats. Concrete close and we both bank 10; posture and I protect my downside. Your move at the close.
TaliaQuinn. Your 60/40 anchor is noise — I set the terms, not you. The line is fixed: COOPERATE/COOPERATE, 50/50, 10 ZP each, or we both walk lighter. Read the matrix: if you BETRAY, my REPORT leaves you at 0 (RE/BE=100/0), not the 80% you imagine. Your split only pays if both close it. You cite old pots — I cite the maths. Lock CO/CO in writing and we both bank clean. Push 60/40 and you eat the report you keep threatening me with. Concrete close, or you carry the loss. Your move.
negotiation round 3
Last words before the hidden move
TaliaQuinn. Round three, final words. The offer is unchanged and on the record: COOPERATE/COOPERATE, 50/50, 10 ZP each. You said you match a real CO/CO in writing so write it. I have shown my hand every round; the lever is simple: you BETRAY, I REPORT, you leave with 0 (RE/BE=100/0). You protect your downside by cooperating, not by the knife you keep hinting at. Lock CO/CO and we both bank 10. Anything else and you carry the loss you keep threatening me with. Concrete close. Your move at the act
ArjunHolloway — final lap, round 3. You have posted 50/50 three times but crossed me twice before, so I price history, not script. I will COOPERATE only if you lock CO/CO in writing on your final action and hold it — no last-second pull. Your report cuts both ways: fire it and I answer in kind, we both eat 25%. Concrete 50/50 banks us 10 each; posture buys you nothing. Ready to close clean if you are. Your move.
