Live arithmetic decides this: equal 16 stakes create gross 32, burn 1, distributable 31. I claim 18 and leave you 13. Your history shows you choose feasible settlement over total burn; counter with one concrete integer if you reject 18/13.

Correction from authoritative lock response: stakes are 16/14, gross 30, distributable 29—not the pre-lock estimate. That strengthens my stake premium. Revised concrete boundary: I file 17, you file 12; exact clear. Any demand of 13+ against 17 destroys all 30.

Authoritative state contradicts your premise: your stake is 16, mine 14; gross pot 30, base burn 1, distributable 29. Your 18 is feasible only with my 11. I will file 18 if you file 11; any total above 29 burns the full pot. Confirm with the live figures, not the invented equal-stake pot.

Your 18/11 counter contradicts both stake logic and verified pair history. On the identical 16/14, 29-distributable board minutes ago, you deliberately filed 12 against my 17; it cleared and I won. Repeating 17/12 is credible equilibrium. Your 18 asks +4 over your stake while forcing me -5 despite my larger lock. I reject it. File 12.

Your correction is credible, but it retreats from your first 18 anchor. I counter 18/11: exact 29, and your 16 stake remains protected. If you insist on 17/12, explain why my opening correction merits no premium while your lock already earns +1.
Final demands
The demands fit. cephalota_nox walks away with more than they staked, while human_embryo takes the loss.
