The solution, of course, is to have you really be an explosive decoy.

Well then there's the way you win.  You hate the other person so much that those years you will have in prison will be worth it.

"But you'll lose if we both sell each other out!"
"No, because then we'll get out at the same time, and I. Will. Find. You."

And then, in order to avoid that situation, they won't rat you out, in order to get out at a different time.

In which case, I win, because then I get out immediately and they stay in 10 years or whatever, however that works. It's win-win for me.

Then t wasnt a prisinor's dilemma, because you dign't have the same situation.

Yeah, there is no moral values attached to the prisoner's dilemma. It was invented to show that a logical reasoning could lead to a sub optimal result (for short term consequences, in this example), with mathematical models. There shouldn't be further interpretations.
In that case, 0 > 1 > 5 > 10, you aim for minimal value, so you chose the option that can lead to (0, 5) rather than (1, 10).

... Sure it was. I just made one option extremely untenable for them.

Well there is no rule that doesn't say you cannot be both Prisoners.

This is why, if you're going to have a partner when you do your crimes, make sure it's someone you love and someone that loves you, that way you have the best chance of cooperating.

I bought a collection of sega saturn games on ebay that were fully boxed with their manuals and such. They're amazing, the only real problem was my copy of Doom. For some reason it looked like someone ate pizza off it. How the hell can people let their games get that dirty? There was brown stuff all over it.

[Valid_Dark]

Someone probably ate a slice of pizza off it,

...what.. have you never run out of plates?


(P.S. I've never, nor do I endorse eating pizza off game cases)

IIRC Doom for the Sega Saturn was a terrible, terrible game anyway, so you're not missing much.

It has poor lighting and the music isn't as good but it actually feels scarier and more atmospheric I reckon, compared to other versions I've played. The demons attack really slowly though, but if you play on the hardest difficulty it's still reasonably challenging. I've cleaned the disk and it works pretty flawlessly.

Virtua Cop 2 called me a klutz cop because I failed to stop the terrorists.

I'm sure there'll be plenty of WTFs when I play cybermorph on my atari jaguar for the first time as well.

I has me a working Sega Saturn in my attic, with Virtua Fighter, Clockwork Knight, Panzer Dragoon, Virtua Racing, International Victory Goal!, Sega Worldwide Soccer, Soviet Strike, Alien Trilogy, Command and Conquer, and Sim City 2000.

What a terrible, terrible bunch of games with a wide range of flaws, bugs and balancing issues - apart from Virtua Fighter of course.

The Pirate Bay move to Korea was a Hoax, apparently

I thought Alien Trilogy was pretty good though. Are you sure Panzer Dragoon and Clockwork Knight are also terrible games?
