To compete or cooperate?

 I try playing the game but I was not able to get pass 36 like some of the classmates did. On my first try, what I have in mind was to win the game. In the process of playing, I figure that if I wanted to win the game, I would have to keep on competing. However, it would get bored and stop playing. I would still win, but I did not end up with a lot of coins. Then I figure that if I try to cooperate, the game would keep going and I would end up with more coins. However, I would be the same amount of coins as Serendip. I try competing and cooperating but I would still cannot get that many coins. It keep telling me that I can do better. I think that there is a way of doing both that get you the most coins. I think that the point of this game is to know when to compete and when to cooperate. A perfect combination of both is needed to end up with the most coins and win at the same time.
