When playing around in the sandbox, simpleton always bet copy cat (using default values put a population of only simpleton and copycat). I don’t understand why.
The reason for this is because of the 5% chance for mistakes. Copycat does worse vs both Simpleton and Copycat than Simpleton does against itself.
