Thus each player’s strategy is a best response to the other’s implying that {extended guarantee, extended guarantee} is the Nash equilibrium of computer wars 1. 13. Do you recognise this game? 1. You have already seen that the dominant-strategy equilibrium of this game is {special offer, special offer}.
6. You have already seen that the iterated-dominance equilibrium of that game was {club, party hence the iterated-dominance equilibrium of friends or enemies 2 must also be {club, party}. 9 is another version of the friends or enemies game. It doesn’t have a strong iterated-dominance equilibrium but it does have a weak iterated-dominance equilibrium. In this version of the game Ms Row still does not want to meet Mr Column and Mr Column is still stalking Ms Row. However, Mr Column’s preference for the party is not as strong as it was.
