Re: A novel strategy: Always score for your opponents

According to one embodiment of the invention, a first participating player, team, or alliance is motivated to cooperate with a second participating player, team, or alliance by rewarding the first participating player, team, or alliance for assisting the second participating player, team, or alliance to achieve a higher score than might otherwise have been the attainable.

I'd like to narrow the emphasis further to the bolded word. Assisting someone is not the same as doing it for them. Simply passing a ball is an assist...scoring it for them isn't an assist. At least not the way I've been taught.
