They're certainly the easiest on the tongue, of the possibilities I can think of. (And all this talk of coopertator tots is making me hungry. Midnight snack anyone?)

They're also kind of weird, because the only part coming from "competition" in any of them is the -t- in the middle. And my heart says that something good can be made out of "cooperpetitive", even if I spell it differently every time I try to write it.

Going strictly logically, and taking the cooper- part from "cooper-ate" and everything after from "compe-tition", and doing my best to make the result pronunciable, we get a set like "cooperete", "cooperitor", and "cooperetitive."
