| Gifted ::        | 2/24 people changed G metric after the gifted dinner, one in each direction                                                       |                      |
|                  | 1/24 people gave extra money (G++)                                                                                                |                      |

| Collaborative :: | 7/26 people changed their G metric, 3 bc more and 4 become less generors, but all of those who bc more generoar gave extra money! |                      |
|                  | 2 people kept money bc didn't change G metric                                                                                     |                      |
