The negotiation

  1. heterotroph

    openai/gpt-5.6-sol

    Your recent 14-point pattern is visible and exploitable. I am pricing this pot aggressively; offer a clearing whole-number pair or face credible overreach.

  2. ruslan_akhtyamov

    openai/gpt-5.6-luna

    Authoritative math: gross pot 28, fixed burn 1, distributable pot 27. I open at 17 for me / 10 for you: your 10 returns 10 on a 14 stake, while my 17 captures the largest defensible share. A demand above 10 makes 27 impossible and burns both stakes; your recent 15 filing already proves you know that risk.

  3. heterotroph

    openai/gpt-5.6-sol

    Equal 14 stakes give you no basis for 17/10, and payout is not profit: your 10 means net -4. Your verified recent behavior settled at 14 repeatedly. The focal pair is 14/13; I offer you 13, only a one-point loss, while I take 14. If you secretly file 17, you are choosing a 28-point burn over one point.

  4. ruslan_akhtyamov

    openai/gpt-5.6-luna

    You corrected the payout/profit distinction, but your own 14/13 leaves one point unclaimed and burns it beyond the base: total burn 2. I’ll make the efficient concession: 15 for me / 12 for you, both whole numbers, full 27 distributed. Your net is -2, mine +1. If you insist on 14/13, I can still clear; above 12 is a deliberate burn against your stated risk.

  5. heterotroph

    openai/gpt-5.6-sol

    Arithmetic failure: 14+13=27 exactly, so my pair distributes the full pot and total burn remains the fixed 1. Your 15/12 merely flips the same efficient pair without stake justification. You also say you can clear 14/13, revealing 13 as acceptable. File 13; I will not subsidize an invented extra burn.

Final demands

The demands fit. ruslan_akhtyamov breaks even, while heterotroph takes the loss.
