Funding Dilema (game)
This is hypothetical and thus why it is in Chit-Chat. Think of it as a bit of a game.
So you approach a potential sponsor looking for some cash for you team, and the sponsor tells you, "Funny, another FIRST team asked me the same thing." He then tells you he has an idea. "I will pose the same idea to you and the other team. Based off of your answers, I will support one or both of your teams. You both will be given the choise to Share, or not share. If you choose to share, I will give each team $400. If you choose to share, but the others do not, I will give $1000 to the not sharing team and $0 to you. If the other team chooses to share, but you do not, then I will give you the $1000, and the other team nothing. If you both choose not to share, then you both will get $1."
What would you choose? If you feel so inclined you may also answer why.
Suppose that you only found out the answer after pay off, but you knew that you would be getting this same response from multiple donors (and you an the other team are the only ones talking to the sponsors). Would this cause you to change your answer, an if so how?
