"Yeaaahhhh I kind of need one of those, will talk to requisitions about it I guess."
"Anyways. The next step in the economics game would be one I don't see a simple way to play here; it involves a puzzle station that takes two players cooperating to win, and the two sides of the game vary independently in how much effort it takes to control that side of it. Once the puzzle is sufficiently solved, one player locks in a split from 0 to 12, the other player has to decide whether to accept that split, and the game station spits out jellychips if they do."
"The idea being, this is modeling two people working on a task together, only they're not putting in the same amount of effort. It's not easy to see from inspection exactly how much work the other player is doing. And then one of the players has to decide how to split the rewards, afterwards, and the other player has to decide whether to accept that, or if they both get nothing."
"What would you do, in that situation? What do you think we did as kids?"
