Tit for Tat "revised"?
iaoth Started conversation Mar 29, 2001
Tit for Tat works in the following way: First time you meet someone, cooperate. If you meet someone again, do what he/she did last time. This way, you'll only cooperate if the other person did, and you'll punish everyone who cheats. You don't keep on cheating indefinitely (only if the other person does as well), because if the other person decides to cooperate forever, so do you.
As far as I know, there is no revised version. The original Tit for Tat works best, so far. At least that's what I learned from Metamagical Themas and the entry on the Prisoner's Dilemma.
