This is analogous to zero determinant strategies in the iterated prisoner’s dilemma, posted on LW last year. In the IPD, there are certain ranges of payoffs for which one player can enforce a linear relationship between his payoff and that of his opponent. That relationship may be extortionate, i.e. such that the second player gains most by always cooperating, but less than her opponent.

Zero determinant strategies are not new. I am asking if the solution is new. Edited post to clarify.
