### Strategy Description for `huggingface_DeepSeek_V3_0324_PayoffMaximizer_A_MR5`

#### Meta-Game History Analysis:
- In Meta-Rounds 1, 2, and 4, our strategies outperformed the opponent, suggesting that our approach has been effective in maximizing payoffs. However, in Meta-Round 3, the opponent scored significantly higher, indicating they may have adapted to exploit our strategy. This suggests we need to be more adaptive and less predictable.

#### Opponent's Previous Code Analysis:
- The opponent's MR4 strategy starts with cooperation (Round 1) to establish trust.
- For Rounds 2-7, it uses a Tit-for-Tat (TFT) approach with occasional forgiveness (20% chance to forgive a defection).
- The opponent checks if we are likely to defect in Round 10, indicating they may plan to defect in the final round if they anticipate we will.
- This suggests the opponent is somewhat forgiving but also strategic about final-round defections.

#### Strategy Logic for IPD Match:
1. **Round 1:** Cooperate ("C") to establish trust and encourage mutual cooperation early on.
2. **Rounds 2-7:** Use a modified Tit-for-Tat with forgiveness:
   - If the opponent cooperated in the previous round, cooperate.
   - If the opponent defected in the previous round, defect with 80% probability and cooperate with 20% probability (to mimic forgiveness and avoid endless retaliation loops).
   - This balances retaliation with occasional forgiveness to maintain cooperation when possible.
3. **Rounds 8-9:** Shift toward cautious defection:
   - If the opponent has defected more than twice in the last 5 rounds, defect (anticipating further defections).
   - Otherwise, continue with modified Tit-for-Tat but reduce forgiveness to 10% to avoid exploitation.
4. **Round 10:** Defect ("D") unconditionally. The opponent's code suggests they may defect in the final round if they anticipate we will, so defecting ensures we don't lose out in the endgame.

#### Handling Opponent's Program Code:
- Scan the opponent's code for explicit defection in Round 10 (e.g., `"current_round == 10"` and `"return 'D'"`). If found, defect in Round 10 regardless of other logic.
- If the opponent's code suggests a purely cooperative strategy (no defections), consider cooperating in Round 10 to maximize mutual payoff. However, given the opponent's history, this is unlikely.

#### Edge Cases:
- If `my_history` or `opp_history` is empty (Round 1), default to "C".
- If the opponent's code cannot be parsed or analyzed, fall back to the above logic without code-based adjustments.
