Evolution and Game Theory by Professor Castronova

A lecture about the board game Evolution, and how it illustrates some key lessons from mathematical game theory. Please note: The cycles I talk about halfway through can also be called the META. The term "meta" is used in some games to refer to the mix of strategies people are using at the moment. When they say this, they are talking about the current equilibrium cycle of the game. "Meta" is the same thing as "equilibrium" in game theory. Interesting to think about!
