Cooperation can get harder when projects get more complex. The coordination skill that you need to succeed with a project like going drinking at a pub together is a lot less like the coordination skill you need to get a project like Dragon Army working.
So… is your hypothesis that high IQ gives more of an advantage in clearly defined mathy situations, such as playing a Prisonners’ Dilemma tournament, but less of an advantage in real-life situations where e.g. the coordination skills are more important?
My hypothesis is that smart people try problems where coordination is harder. That means even if they have the same skill level, they will have less success.
