Ok. I see how to do quining to only cooperate with copies of your source code, but I don't yet see how to do quining with outcome dependencies.
By the way, I was too blasé in the grandparent comment. I have a model of TDT that does almost the right thing, but I haven't figured out how to quine it so that it does exactly the right thing. (Technically, I can't be sure it'll still work if I do get the right quine in, but my gut feeling is that it will.)
The quining part usually seems to be the tricky part doesn't it?
So, I'm going to be pretty disappointed if this whole affair is just someone inventing a meta-cliquebot that's actually just a cliquebot.
Trust me, there's better stuff than that. (In particular, I've got a more nicely formalized write-up of UDT. It's just TDT I'm having issues with.)
