[EM] Chicken problem (was: SODA and the Condorcet criterion)

2011-08-06 Thread Jameson Quinn
More thoughts on the chicken problem. Again, in Forest's version, that's a scenario like: 48 A 27 CB 25 BC C is the pairwise champion, but B is motivated to truncate, and C to retaliate defensively, until A ends up winning. In my opinion, scenarios like this make the single most intractable

To review for other readers, we're talking about the scenario 48 A 27 CB 25 BC Candidates B and C form a clone set that pairwise beats A, and in fact C is the Condorcet Winner, but under many Condorcet methods, as well as for Range and Approval, there is a large temptation for the 25 B
