And how would you agree on this intermediate step? The other party could offer a similar but different variant of this intermediate step (e.g. use the strategy whose description comes first alphanumerically). You have no way to force the other party to use your random strategy for the intermediate step.
- kybernetikos 5y agoGreat point - it's not quite as trivial as it appears. But I think you could just use the same approach: "Every turn, keep suggesting a strategy until you receive the same strategy you suggest". Once that happens, then you both execute that strategy. Both players are trying to collaborate here, so they'll naturally subordinate themselves on the first opportunity to win the game, they'll implement randomness or backoff naturally.
