This one is actually really subtle, and I forget the solution, and it's in the metaethics sequence somewhere (look for pebblesorters), but the punchline is that the outcome sucks.
So yes, you and your Diabolus-1 "win", but the outcome still sucks.
The answer you are referrign to is probably the utiiitarian one that you morally-should maximisie everyone's preferences, not just your own. But that's already going well beyond to the naive "awesomeness" theory presented above.
